Zayn Malik has been pretty quiet on the 'gram over the past month, but luckily it seems like his social media hiatus has come to an end.

Thank the lord, cause we really can't be dealing with another one of those (One Direction, we're looking at you).

PLAY to see Zayn Malik and more celebs who broke off their engagements...

And what better way to let every know you're back than with a hella close up shot of your brand new haircut and impressive body modifications?

The lad took to Insta last night to get up close and personal with his massive mandala tattoo on the side of his head, which is now fully visible after thefresh trim.

Zayn also showed off his scaffolding piercing as well as his lobe and nose piercings.

Is it just us, or is he the king of body modifications?

Clearlyhis fans think so, as one person commented: "Mandala king," as another summed up our thoughts exactly: "The piercing the tats the beard your eyes MARRY ME PLEASE 😭."

The pic is one of three that Zayn has posted in the same amount of days after a whole month away from the app.

He also shared a major throwback to his One Direction days as he posted a pic of signed clothing he wore back then, which he's now sent out to a few lucky fans.

Needless to say, people lost it: "'1D days' ajsvakbakahwh my hearttttt😭😭😭😭😭 [sic]," was just one of the excited comments.

And the third pic he shared features him looking a bit blurry while chilling out and clutching on to a drink.

Basically, it looks a lot like our weekend.

While Zayn's recent uploads don't appear to have anything to do with new music, that hasn't stopped fans longing for it.

"Can you drop new music already 😩🙌🏻❤️," wrote one person as another added: "where is the album."

While we'd absolutely live for new Malik music, we're just happy to see his face back on our feedsrn.

Welcome back, Zayn, we missed ya.
