The blonde beauty captioned the post: “Looking back on these photos from the legendary @patrickdemarchelier, it feels like a lifetime ago, yet yesterday all at once. Dance is my tie to everything. Where my heart is truly rooted. As I look between a fresh-faced flashback of my 24-year-old self and the new year that stands before me, I can’t help but feel excited that while most things are very different, one thing will always remain the same.”

Fans showered appreciation on the nostalgic photos, applauding her unwavering commitment to her artistry.

“You look 19 again in these pics,” said one fan. “You’re amazing young lady. A great role model for young girls. Keep up the good work,” wrote another user. “Beautiful then! Beautiful now,” and “obsessed with these photos,” commented other fans.

Having delved into memories of her dancing days from a decade ago, the TV personality recently revealed her new look with a stylish short blunt bob.

Jules went on her Instagram feed to share a brief reel capturing the moment she decided to trim her own blonde tresses. The actor is seen bravely cutting into her medium-layered hair with a pair of scissors, skillfully snipping away at the ends.

She wrote a long detailed caption on life’s changing seasons and a fresh start. “Out with the old energy, and in with the new. This was such a funny day – it was raining so hard, but the sun was shining and there was a double rainbow. It made me start to think about the seasons of life, and the decisions we make as we progress. Hair is such an outward expression of what those decisions are…of the internal journeys that we go through. The idea of the rain pouring, which could’ve been a melancholy day, but the sun was shining so bright that it almost felt like a cleansing. (I know, I know, but seriously!) Plus a double rainbow to show a sign of prosperity and all the life that is to come. It just felt like it was the right time to cut off some of the old energy and start fresh.”

We’re not just vibing with Julianne’s awesome outlook on the future, but also totally crushing on how fabulous she rocks any hairstyle!
