Zé Felipe Unveils New Cut, Then Follows Gessica Muniz After Viral New Year's Photo

He says the makeover followed a yearlong religious vow to forgo haircuts.

Overview

  • After the New Year's image circulated, he followed Gessica Muniz on Instagram and she later followed him back, with no public confirmation of a romance from either.
  • Extra reported that Muniz's public account gained roughly 70,000 followers in under two days, rising from about 229,000 to 299,000 after the photo drew attention.
  • The photo was taken in Pipa, Rio Grande do Norte, where he appeared with his hand on her waist days after he and Ana Castela confirmed their split.
  • On January 2 he posted before-and-after images revealing a very short, natural-brown haircut and captioned the post "2026 é abençoado."
  • He had pledged not to cut his hair during 2025 for religious reasons and recently pared his Instagram to a few posts, primarily featuring his children, before sharing the new look.
