Attention: Kristen Stewart Just Shaved Her Head and Dyed Her Hair Blonde
At the premiere of her new movie ‘Personal Shopper,’ Kristen Stewart looked nearly unrecognizable.
Kristen Stewart, is that you? At the premiere of her new film Personal Shopper, the actress arrived at the event looking nearly unrecognizable with a shaved head dyed bleached blonde. The new hairstyle is an extreme departure–just as recently as the day before, March 6, she appeared in Los Angeles with her brunette roots and a short haircut.
While promoting her upcoming spooky film about a personal shopper for a celebrity in Paris, which debuts March 10, Stewart unveiled her freshly buzzed head with a goth, black ensemble comprised of black trousers, a corset, and plenty of dark, smoky eyeliner.
While Kristen Stewart has yet to comment on the inspiration behind her new haircut, Just Jared reports that the new look could be for another one of her upcoming films, Underwater, which “focuses on an underwater scientific crew forced to go on a dangerous journey for survival following an earthquake” according to Variety — which would make sense. After all, no hairstyle is easier to deal with when wet than a buzz cut.
