The Britain's Got Talent runner-up explained that she was unhappy about being branded the "Hairy Angel" in the press.
"I was fed up with being called that," she told the Daily Mail. "I didn't know what I looked like on television until I saw myself on Britain's Got Talent. I saw this wee wifey with the mad hairdo and the bushy eyebrows and said, 'Hmm, not really telegenic'.
"So I decided to spruce myself up a bit. When I look in the mirror now, I see this sophisticated lady. I'm still a bit like that wee wifey inside, but more refined in some ways. Would you want to look like the Hairy Angel? I don't think so."
Boyle releases her debut album I Dreamed A Dream on November 23.
