Drastic Celebrity Haircuts

But unlike her sisters, Elizabeth is following trends (instead of setting them!), and has recently cut her long hair into the very popular lob.

Known for her long golden California waves, Lauren Conrad's hair is as famous as her reality TV past.

The latest starlet to jump on the bob bandwagon, Lauren said goodbye to her famous blonde waves for a much more mature (yet just as stylish) short 'do.
 

Whether it was real, fake or a little bit of both, Britney Spears has lived by the "longer is better" mantra her whole career.

Just this past week, Brit-Brit stepped out with a new much-shorter 'do to release her lingerie collection in Germany. The pop star went back to her bright blonde colour but opted for an above-the-shoulder length.

Since wrapping the Twilight films, Kristen chopped her long blunt brunette locks and starting donning a more reddish-auburn hue with face-framing layers.

Kristen stunned the fashion crowd when she showed up at the Chanel show in Paris with a new super-light cropped 'do.

Taylor looks sweet with long gold locks and shaggy bangs, but it was only a matter of time before the then 22-year-old matured and craved a haircut to match.

A hair icon since her days of playing Rachel on Friends, Jen's hair always looks gorgeous. Here, it just might be the longest it's ever been.

Jen looks stunning with a beautiful bob. Her secret? Healthy, shiny hair that would look good at any length. 

Leave it to lovable Jen to have fun with her hair. After this long dark 'do, reminiscent of her character in Silver Linings Playbook, the award-winning actress was ready for a change. 

This could be the most dramatic hair transformation we've ever seen! JLaw traded in her dark strands for a blonde pixie cut and the result is nothing short of stunning.

It wasn't long before she traded in her tresses for a short new 'do and funky green tips to boot!

Back when Miley was sweet and had a hairstyle to match, the star looked oh-so innocent with flowy youthful tresses.

New hair, new girl! Miley went from sweet child star to edgy A-lister with this drastic haircut. 

Halle is one of those women who suits every hairstyle. Here, she looks sexy in shoulder-length locks.

This is Natalie Portman circa 2004. She has the same hairstyle today and hasn't aged a day. 

Natalie's role in V for Vendetta inspired this fabulous pixie cut that's hailed as one of her most dramatic 'dos. 

Blonde beauty Hayden looks stunning with straight blonde locks.

But her latest 'do is way more cutting-edge (pun intended)!

It couldn't be, could it? Yes, this is young Rooney before she transformed into an edgy style queen.

The actress dyed her strands jet-black and chopped the edges into a frayed cut. Confession: we much prefer her long light brown locks.

Big hair, don't care! Pamela was known for her voluminous blonde locks.

Which is why everyone was so shocked when she chopped her hair into a pixie cut. The cut looks fresh, though we can't say the same about her makeup.
