Has there ever been this big a fuss over a haircut? Apart from season 2 of Felicity of course? 

Many One Direction fans were left 'devastated' yesterday when what they thought was the first video of Harry Styles debuting his new hair do turned out to be a hoax. Today however, the pictures circulating seem to be the real deal. 

The Sun have released photos of Styles out and about in London. He's wearing a hat but his shortened locks can be seen. 

Naturally enough, Twitter is exploding with excitement.

 

Seriously though Harry, just take off the hat and be done with it. All this excitement is too much for us.
