DOLLY Parton looks unrecognizable with her REAL hair as she ditched her signature big blonde wig in a throwback photo.
The 76-year-old singer was praised for sharing a snap of her real hair in a resurfaced photo.
Back in February 2020, Dolly shared a black and white pic of herself in a recording booth on Instagram.
She stunned in a classic white sweater, though fans couldn’t help but notice that she showed off her much natural blonde hair in the photo.
The style is much tamer than the large and over-the-top blonde wig she usually rocks, while the singer has also been known to sport bold outfits.
Alongside the photo, Dolly wrote: “Where the magic happens.”
PRAISE FOR DOLLY
While Dolly posted the photo on Instagram nearly two years ago, the snap recently resurfaced as many fans can’t believe how different she looks without her wig.
In the comments section, one fan wrote: “Love your real hair, Dolly!! Love you 4-ever!!”

Another added: “Love your natural hair Dolly. Beautiful!”
A third chimed in: “You look good with straight hair too.”
Others left red heart emojis, while numerous fans told the iconic singer that she’s “beautiful.”
RARE THROWBACK PHOTO
More recently, Dolly shared a rare throwback photo that featured her husband Carl Dean.
In the photo, which was posted to Twitter in November, Dolly wore a bright pink top, yellow pant, a matching belt and jewelry.
She held hands with her husband Carl, now 79, whose T-shirt was photoshopped into his wife’s recent merchandise release.
Dolly- whose birthday is on January 19- captioned her photo shared on Twitter: “Find you a partner who will support you like my Carl Dean does!”
Fans rushed to the comments to gush over how “handsome” the reclusive Carl appeared in the image.
“He is one tall drink of water,” one wrote with a heart-eyes emoji.
“OK Ms. Dolly, Carl Dean is also a cutie,” a second shared.
The photo is one of the few images the public has seen of Carl, as the businessman has chosen to stay out of the spotlight over the years.
LOVE STORY
Dolly met her husband on her very first day in Nashville when she was just 18 and Carl was 21.
The pair met outside their local laundromat in 1964.
“We actually met the first day I moved to Nashville,” Dolly previously told the TV talk show Home & Family.
“I was 18 years old, 1964. I had taken some dirty clothes in a rush to get to Nashville.
“I was down at the Wishy Washy laundromat. I had put my clothes in the laundry in this machine and I was all new in Nashville to stay,” she recalled.
“I was walking around on the street and this good looking guy drove by and he said something to me like ‘Hey, you gonna get sunburned out there,’ or something. I said ‘What’s it to you?’ or something like that.”
Dolly continued: “He pulled over and we started talking. I was actually babysitting at the time and so we talked. I told him where I was staying. I said ‘Well, you come by tomorrow and we’ll talk.’
“So he came by a couple of days, we sat out on the fire escape where I was babysitting the little boy and we had a first date.
“He took me home to his mama very first time.”
CARL’S CRUSH
Meanwhile, Carl knew that he and Dolly were going to spend their life together after seeing her for the first time.
“My first thought was I’m gonna marry that girl,” he said on Dolly’s official website.
“My second thought was, ‘Lord she’s good lookin.’ And that was the day my life began.”
The couple tied the knot two years later on May 30, 1966, in Ringgold, Georgia, shortly before Dolly released her first album.
