Love Island USA's Rob Rausch Shaves His Head in New Transformation
A hot new hairstyle has entered Rob Rausch's life.
After all, the Love Island USA heartthrob ditched his short yet voluminous brunette locks for an even more cropped look.
In a June 3 Instagram Story, Rob—wearing a black tank top highlighting his sprawling snake tattoo and a thick silver chain—shared a mirror selfie from the gym while showing off his buzzed haircut.
While he opted for an even shorter look this time, the season four Traitors winner has always maintained a pretty low-maintenance beauty routine. When it comes to his hair, he told Today in March that although he sometimes uses a sea salt spray, "I just kind of wake up, tussle it a bit."
Rob—who often shares clips of himself wrangling snakes and lizards on his social media—has a skincare routine that reflects his lifestyle in his hometown of Florence, Ala.
"I just drink a lot of water, pray," he explained. "Luckily, I'm usually in a really humid climate. So that's great for your skin, sweating. It's good for you, just wash it off after."
"I'll put sunscreen on in spring," he continued, "and then once I get to my base tan—I'm usually super tan in the summer, I'm really pale right now—and once I get to that, I don't really need it anymore."
Although the 27-year-old made his name on the Peacock dating competition before winning the hearts of fans on Traitors, his personal life has stood in stark contrast to his public persona.

"I would drag my brother out to the middle of the woods, and we'd build forts and boats," he told GQ in February. "We built all kinds of stuff right out there. I mean, that's all we had to do. We lived on a farm. We didn't have fucking Wi-Fi. We'd go get some nails and go to town, make some shit."
And it's something he loves about living in his town off the Tennessee River.
"When I'm here, I'll go days without talking to anybody or seeing anybody," he said while driving his pickup truck, adding that being in Alabama has given him "more peace."
