Get ready for a double dose of glamour and excitement as Vanessa Hudgens, the 36-year-old actress and mom-to-be, takes to Instagram to flaunt her brand-new hair extensions. The High School Musical star, who announced her second pregnancy in mid-July, is expecting another little bundle of joy with her dashing husband Cole Tucker.

In a sizzling reel that's got fans going wild, Vanessa showcases her growing baby bump in a stunning button-up white shirt, paired with matching lounge pants that leave nothing to the imagination. The actress' hair transformation is just as jaw-dropping, as she trades in her mid-length locks for luscious waist-length ringlets that cascade down her back like golden honey.

But what really steals the show is Vanessa's radiant glow, which is simply electric. The actress beamed with pride in a brief clip filmed outdoors on a sunny day, and it's clear that she's absolutely loving every moment of this new chapter in her life. "Mermaid mommy mode activated!" she captioned the post, accompanied by the catchy tune "The Mermaid Song" by Honahlei.

So, who helped create Vanessa's stunning look? The talented duo behind Chaviv Hair salon, Violet Teriti and Vivian Terityan, were tagged in the post for their incredible work. We can't wait to see what other hair magic they have up their sleeves!

Vanessa's latest pregnancy announcement came on July 12, when she shared a joint Instagram post with her husband Cole, featuring professional photos of them both beaming with joy. The couple celebrated their firstborn child's first birthday on July 3, and it's clear that they're loving every moment of this wild ride.

But before we get to the juicy part, let's take a quick trip down memory lane. Vanessa met her now-husband Cole in November 2020, just months after calling it quits with actor Austin Butler. Yes, you read that right – the same Austin Butler who's been making headlines lately for his dashing good looks and charming on-screen presence.

In an exclusive appearance on the She Pivots podcast back in March, Vanessa gushed about her split from Austin, saying, "I feel my last breakup has really catapulted me to a very, very special place, obviously." When asked what she meant by that, she revealed, "You pushed me to the right person," referencing Cole Tucker.

But what really gets our hearts racing is the way Vanessa described seeing Cole at the altar for the first time. In an interview with Vogue just days after their December 2, 2023 wedding, she confessed, "I literally keeled over when I saw Cole and had to take a big breath and had to force myself to keep walking because I could have dropped to the floor."
