The Counting Crows singer, 55, has rocked voluminous dreadlocks since the band’s beginnings in the early ’90s — but Duritz revealed this week that the dreads are no more.

“Oh yeah, I flew to London and shaved my head!” he concluded the post’s caption, adding a Sex Pistols reference. “Anarchy In The UK indeed motherf—ers!!!”

Duritz also shared the photo of his new ‘do on Twitter, where Counting Crows fans expressed their shock.

“It looks SO good. But, please excuse me while I take some time to mourn,” one tweeterwrote, while anotheradded, “HOLY F—!!! Did you lose a bet?”

On Thursday, Duritzshared a photoof himself out and about with his brand new ‘do. The singer covered his newly shaved head with a hat, explaining in the caption that he “went for a walk in London this morning and nearly froze my brain right out of my head.”

“Apparently it’s a whole new world out there,” he continued. “Immediately set out for Piccadilly with Z in search of a hatter and bought hats. Jaunty little f—er now, ain’t I?”

Duritz had previously admitted that the dreadlocks were at least partially made up of extensions.

“They’re real! In that they’re not imaginary. They’re extensions,” he told Irish newspaperThe Independentin 2009. “You know, I did try. They made my hair itch. And man, they smelled.”
