It's hard to imagine Jennifer Aydin without her trademark mane of shiny raven hair. But The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom has surprised us before — although last time it was a joke; earlier this year, we thought this brunette went platinum, as in dyed her hair a Game Of Thrones-esque ice blonde.

That platinum blonde was actually a wig, and Jennifer revealed she didn't lighten her "brilliant brunette hair" at all. But now she's flashing back to a time in her life when she really did trade being a brunette for blonde. In honor of her brother's birthday, Jennifer shared a bunch of family photos on Instagram, revealing that she rocked honey-colored curls at one point in her life.

"Remember when I was a blonde," she wrote, along with a few shocked emojis.

Jennifer looks so different here with sunny highlights, but we kind of love it. We won't be shocked if she brings this honey blonde color back!
