From Prince William to Jennifer Lawrence: The Most Drastic Celebrity Hair Changes Ever
Like the rest of us, celebrities get bored with their signature looks and like to switch things up. Though we’re used to mega-stars like Rihanna giving us drastic changes, some celebrity switch-ups we just never saw coming.
From Prince William‘s new eye-raising buzz cut to Blake Lively‘s new short black locks, here are the most drastic celebrity hair changes ever. Let’s just say that they are rather hair-raising.
Prince William
It’s no secret that Prince William has been balding for quite some time. The soon-to-be father of three has finally decided to take matters into his own hands. No matter who you are, it’s tough for anyone who is dealing with hair loss. To make his bald spot less obvious, the prince decided to pick up his clippers and shave his hair off.
We think it looks distinguished but some folks on the internet don’t exactly agree. Celebrity hairstylist Joe Mills told The Independent:
For a long time comments have been made, especially online and in the press, about the fact that his hair is thinning and he’s losing his hair. I think him just literally going; I’m going to crop my hair off is a really strong statement, a very confident statement. If you are photographed and in the public eye to that degree, it’s very, very hard to look great all the time.I think it suits him, I think he looks great with it.
