EastEnders actress Jessie Wallace has unveiled a new hair do to fans.
Wallace, who plays Kat Slater on the BBC One soap, shared a photo of the hair transformation on Instagram, crediting her long-time hairdresser and friend behind the new style.
"Thank you @linocarbosiero for my rock chick cut! Love you," read the caption.

Wallace's character Kat has been part of some big storylines recently, with the animal-print loving Slater recently enjoying a turbulent fling with the Square's local villain Nish Panesar following her split from husband Phil, although she's not aware that Nish has some secret plans for her.
