During her starting years as a singer, she had chubby cheeks, giving her a youthful and adorable look. However, many fans have noticed that Taeyeon’s face has thinned out quite dramatically since her debut through her strict diet. She has lost weight even in her jawline and achieved the amazing “v-line”.
Taeyeon gained her amazing figure due to her consistent hard work in maintaining her figure, which includes watching what she eats and diligently exercising. This doll-like look took years for even Taeyeon to achieve.

Taeyeon is a K-Pop artist who changes hairstyles every year. During her appearance in the Girls’ Generation “The Boys” era, Taeyeon decided to appear with short and ombre haircuts. She looked attractive and lovely with her short hair.
Since she debuted with Girls’ Generation, Taeyeon has appeared more with looks who tend to be calm. However, when the group released the music video of “I Got a Boy” in 2013, Taeyeon appeared cooler and different from her usual appearance with vibrant make-up and ombre-colored hair, namely brown at the top and bluish green at the ends of the hair. It was totally different from her usual look, but Taeyeon still looked pretty and chic at the same time.
After enduring long enough with short hair to shoulder length, finally, when Girls’ Generation made a comeback with a brand new song titled “Mr. Mr.” Taeyeon appeared again with long hair. Appearing elegant with long curly hair at the bottom, Taeyeon’s hairdo was getting sweeter with bangs.
The cheerful summer theme, which appeared during Girls’ Generation’s comeback with the song “Party” in 2015, made Taeyeon try on a combination of pink, coral and blonde hair color.
