    Jessie J has spoken about how she adjusted to having her head shaved

    Forget appearing live on The Voice or performing to millions, Jessie J has revealed her biggest adrenaline rush came from cutting her thick brunette locks off to raise money for Comic Relief.

    JESSIE J SIGNS UP FOR CHARITY GIG

    Last month the singer shaved her head for the charity and now she’s spoken about exactly what was going through her mind as the clippers got to work. Jessie J told Capital Breakfast Birmingham: ‘Shaving your head is the most exhilarating feeling and it’s so much easier in the morning and so much quicker.’

    But for those contemplating the chop, Jessie J admits it has taken some adjustment, ‘If you have long hair you can always mix up your style,’ she adds. ‘If you’re going to wear a wedding dress or jogging bottoms you had a choice, [now I don’t].

    But this hasn’t harmed her postive outlook as she revealed what new things she’s doing with her short hair, she said: ‘I’ve got these amazing chalks that allow you to just colour your hair and then hairspray it in.

    ‘I’m going to have my hair lots of different colours. I’m loving the simplicity of [short hair] it’s easy. I’m like a fluffy tennis ball. I’ve had it cut again already and I’m going to keep it short.’

    So she should, it looks amazing!
