The Voice UK's Olly Murs welcomed in the new year and the new round of auditions with a new bleached blonde hairstyle, and now the TV coach has showed off another hair transformation on his Instagram page.

While walking the red carpet at the National Television Awards alongside The Voice co-star Sir Tom Jones on Tuesday night (January 28), it looked like Olly's bleached locks were being grown out, with his original dark hair visible under the bleached tips.

But jump forward a day, and Olly premiered a completely different hairstyle in a new Instagram post, showing off his new silver-blonde hair colour and a freshly-cut style to boot.

And he's already defending his new hairstyle from potential critics in the caption too, writing: "Never be afraid of change. If you like something, go do it! Haters will hate, let them hate you even more."

Earlier this month, Olly was left stunned when an old friend auditioned for The Voice, later revealing that he and Lara George worked together at a call centre together before Olly made it big on The X Factor.

The coach also ended up getting emotional in another episode as he opened up about the decade-long rift between himself and his twin brother after a performance from twins on the show brought back some old memories.

"We haven't spoken for 10 years," he explained to his fellow coaches. "We had a big argument. I was on The X Factor, and I couldn't make his wedding because I was on the show, it was a long story."

"I do miss having my twin with me," he added. "We had this bond as a twin, it was something I was proud about and I still am. I'm a twin, quite a proud thing and that brings back memories."

The Voice UK airs Saturdays at 8:30pm on ITV.
