Malia Obama debuted a chic new red outfit after cutting her waist-length brown hair.
The former first daughter was spotted with auburn locks as she left a movie theater in Los Angeles with one of her close friends.
The 25-year-old screenwriter was known for bragging about her long brown hair, which she was last seen sporting on October 3, when she strolled around LA with a lit cigarette in hand.
However, it looks like Malia has grown tired of her longer locks and has decided it’s time for a change – just as her sister Sasha, 22, hinted at a big change in her lifestyle as she picked up some moving boxes this week, as she shared an apartment with her older sibling for over a year.

The ‘do appears to be a dramatic change for the former first daughter, who once had extremely long brown locks that fell just above her butt.
After she and her friend watched a movie together, they were seen chatting outside.
Malia seemed to be inspired by her boyfriend, who also had red hair and wore a white sweatshirt and jeans.

She then jumped into her car and left.
Malia’s makeover comes just two days after Sasha was photographed buying a stack of moving boxes.
The youngest daughter of former President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama transferred from the University of Michigan to the University of Southern California last year to complete her studies.
Sasha shares an apartment with her screenwriter sister, Malia.
However, Sasha has not made her future plans public since graduating last May with a bachelor’s degree in sociology.

She hinted at an impending move when she was seen lugging a handful of boxes from a local UPS store by herself this week.
There are countless reasons why she bought moving boxes; she could move to another city, get her own house or move into a new apartment with her sister.
Sasha followed in Malia’s footsteps when she moved to LA last year.
Malia moved to the West Coast to pursue a career as a screenwriter after graduating from Harvard University in 2021.
She scored a lucrative writing job for Donald Glover’s Amazon show, Swarm.
She previously worked as an intern on Lena Dunham’s HBO series Girls in 2015 and on The Weinstein Company in 2017.
And the pair appear to be in sync with more than just their lifestyle, as two weeks ago Malia was pictured puffing on a cigarette after Sasha did the same.

Longtime smoker Malia was dressed for fall in a cozy blue cardigan sweater with a colorful geometric pattern and custom wide-leg trousers, paired with black lug-sole boots.
Obama was also a regular smoker before entering the White House and chewed Nicorette gum several times to combat the habit.
In his memoir “A Promised Land,” he writes that his daughter Malia pushed him to quit, writing that she “frowned” at him after “smelling a cigarette on my breath.”
He said he chewed nicotine gum “incessantly” to quit.
