Married At First Sight’s Ella Ding shocked her fans on Friday when she debuted a striking new look on social media.
The former reality star, 30, shared a clip on Instagram documenting her daring makeover by the talented Jorge Komo at his salon Komo Hair.
Ella said goodbye to her previously platinum blonde locks and opted for vibrant dark purple tresses.
She hasn’t held back from switching up her look in recent weeks, ditching her signature chocolate braids for a much lighter blonde look in a huge change.
A video of her latest hair reveal showed Ella sitting in Jorge’s chair as he dramatically lifted a haircutting cape to reveal Ella’s bold new look.
“I woke up like this,” she jokingly captioned the clip.
She also shared a series of videos on her Instagram Stories on Friday showing off her new hairstyle.
One clip showed her sitting in her car after the hair appointment as she talked to the camera about her new color.

“Weirdly, I feel like myself with this hair color,” she said. ‘I love blonde and really miss blonde, but I actually feel more like myself with this hair color.
“My hair feels like it has been saved, it has been brought back to life by the bleach.”
Ella’s new look is a far cry from the jet black locks she sported during her stint on season nine of Married at First Sight.
She shocked her fans in July when she revealed her blonde locks on social media, once again courtesy of Jorge.
Ella said goodbye to her signature, perfectly styled, straight, jet black hair and opted for a striking platinum blonde hairstyle.
She captioned the reveal at the time: “I just like a little change every now and then. I’ve gone blonde.’

Ella’s makeover comes after she seemingly turned down her former best friend and MAFS co-star Domenica Calarco’s new project, following the end of their joint Sit With Us podcast.
Domenica launched her Mad Woman podcast last month and despite being two episodes in, Ella has not publicly expressed her support for her new venture.
Following their fallout, Ella unfollowed Domenica’s new podcast page on Instagram and didn’t like any of the posts.
To promote her new venture, Domenica shared a sultry promotional post on Instagram on Thursday in which she cheekily posed with a cake smeared with Mad Woman.
In the photo, she put on a busty show in a red bra and matching panties as she seductively enjoyed rubbing her finger.
Despite the post receiving an outpouring of love from her legion of followers, Ella seemingly did not comment or engage with the post.

Ny Breaking Australia has contacted Ella for comment.
Ella and Domenica previously co-hosted the podcast Sit With Us, but they shocked fans when they recently ended their project.
The pair subsequently confirmed that they are no longer on speaking terms, further fueling breakup rumors that have been circulating for months.
Speaking to Ny Breaking Australia, Ella said: ‘I have nothing to say but of course I wish her the best, I always will. All good things come to an end.’
Meanwhile, Domenica echoed her sentiments, saying, “We definitely unfollowed each other. I don’t even know where to start.’
This revelation follows reports that Ella had ‘distanced’ herself from Domenica during a difficult time in hospital.
Sources close to the couple claimed that Ella treated Domenica “like a mental patient” and behaved as if she was a completely different person, which further strained their relationship.

News of their unfollowing came just days after the two were spotted together in Sydney, quashing previous rumors of a feud.
In an Instagram post, Domenica was dressed in a midriff-revealing red top paired with blue sweatpants adorned with red love heart detailing down the sides.
She completed her look with leopard print sandals and posed cheekily for the camera, flipping the bird to Ella in what appeared to be a light-hearted moment between the two.
Despite this seemingly amicable reunion, fans quickly noticed that the former friends had unfollowed each other on social media, sparking speculation about what might have happened in the days since their last public appearance together.
