14+ Celebs Who Went With Drastic Hair Transformations And Ignored The Haters

A change in a celebrity's image can totally alter how we talk about them.

I mean, remember what happened when Joe Keery got bangs? That was a wild day on the internet.

Just like Joe, these celebrities changed their looks up with no fear how we'd react. (As it should be!)

Emma Watson

Dave M. Benett

People took Emma Watson's haircut way too seriously.

After the conclusion of the Harry Potter films, Emma Watson decided to cut all of her hair off. Her pixie cut was the talk of the internet for absolute ages.

Adam Levine

Adam Levine constantly makes headlines with his hair choices.

His most recent hairstyle involved a side shave and a mohawk braided into what he called a "corn hawk." Yeah, I don't get why he did it, either.

Kristen Stewart

YouTube | Saturday Night Live

When we first met Kristen Stewart, she had the long, brown hair that defined Bella Swan in Twilight.

After her time as Bella was over, Kristen cut off all of her hair, and hasn't looked back since.

Miley Cyrus

Miley's hair has been through a lot. Nothing, however, shocked us more than when her Hannah Montana locks were sheared off in favour of a side shave.

These days, she's back to the Hannah look, but we shall never forget the side shave days.

Alyson Stoner

The little girl from Missy Elliott's iconic "Work It" video is no more. After Alyson Stoner shaved her head, she said:

"Shaving my head is an act of mental health and confidence, not self-destruction." Queen of self-care.

Lena Waithe

Queen Lena made a huge change when she decided to cut off all of her locs.

After buzzing it off, she dyed it platinum. She recently let the platinum go, but it remains iconic.

Joe Keery

There's no avoiding talking about this brief moment in pop culture history.

Joe Keery showed up to a Chanel show looking...different, and yeah, the internet lost their minds. Luckily, his hair was back to normal the next day.

Charlize Theron

Can you believe Charlize cut her hair?

Where once she had long, flowing blonde locks, now she has a perfectly highlighted bowl cut. The most infuriating part? She's totally rocking it.

Danielle Brooks

Danielle Brooks helped define Orange is the New Black in her role as Tasty.

Her gorgeous curls were cut off in 2018, and wound up proving that she can pull off literally any hairstyle.

Ariel Winter

Instagram | @arielwinter

For a brief time, the girl we knew as Alex Dunphy in Modern Family was a redhead!

Ariel Winter changed her signature brunette locks to a golden red, and personally? I loved it. She dyed her hair back within a few weeks.

Khloé Kardashian

Guys, remember when Khloé was a brunette? That feels like ages ago. (Okay, it was ages ago — years, in fact.)

Khloé drastically changed her hair after her divorce from Lamar Odom, going platinum blonde...and never going back.

Halle Berry

Instagram | @halleberry

Actress in the front, punk in the back.

Believe it or not, Halle Berry has a for-real undercut! She's had the shave for a while, and has it touched up with different designs periodically.

Demi Lovato

Instagram | @ddlovato

Gone are Demi Lovato's long curls.

She cut her hair into a bob and bleached the tips, experimenting with all sorts of different colored ends. Most recently, she's been rocking a magenta color on them.

Emilia Clarke

Instagram | @emilia_clarke

On Game of Thrones, Emilia Clarke rocked an incredibly long, platinum wig. She also kept her hair platinum in real life, which apparently destroyed her hair.

Enter the pixie cut that she debuted in 2018!

Cara Delevingne

Instagram | @caradelevingne

The former model went all-out for her role in Carnival Row. She cut off her signature blonde hair and dyed it brunette, wearing it in a very Emma Watson-style pixie cut.
