Julianne Hough has revealed a significant change she has been contemplating for a long time!

The 37-year-old Dancing With the Stars co-host graced the carpet at the 2025 Kering Foundation’s Caring For Women Gala during New York Fashion Week on Thursday (September 11) in New York City.

Before that, she appeared on a podcast and discussed her desire to shave her head.

“I have this thing on my list of things I want to do: I want to go to Bhutan and shave my head with a monk,” she told Amanda Hirsch on the latest episode of Not Skinny But Not Fat. “It was just to shave my head, but now there are two added layers: Bhutan and a monk.”

“I literally called my hairstylist Riawna [Capri] and I was like, ‘I think we need to make a wig that is my exact haircut right now,’” she added. “I was like, ‘We need to replicate this as a wig so that I can just [shave it] and then know that I’m good for work.’ It’s strange. I’ve been wanting to do this my whole life.”

Julianne shared that shedding her hair would now be part of “the excavation” phase of her life.

“I’ve been through a very big excavation process recently and I’m like, ‘Take it off,’” she said. “Just, you know, clearing out the things that are… the last seven years, all the things I put into place—the systems of protection of who you think you should be—all of them have gone away. So I’m like, ‘Oh last thing, I just need to shave my head now.’”

What she’s excavating? Marriage, moving to a new house, and more.

Also on the podcast, Julianne opened up about how her sisters feel regarding her and brother Derek Hough‘s level of fame and success.
