Beyonce

Hair can be a powerful, symbolic thing it certainly was in Beyonce’s case.

In 2013, for instance, she debuted a drastic change when she cut her hair into a pixie.

“I remember the day I decided to just cut all my hair off,” Beyonce toldEssence.

“I didn’t have a particular style in mind.

So much of my identity as a performer has been connected to flowing hair.

The singer went on to explain that even her hair stylist, Neal Farinah, was against the chop.

Nevertheless, Beyonce grabbed the scissors and did it herself.

“It was what I needed to do.

And after that, I became super brave,” she revealed.

However, early in his career, Pine had a very different look.

Remember Pine in the early 2000s?

Instead of long, shaggy hair, he sported a super clean, cropped “leading man” look.

“I couldn’t un-hear it and it was the first day of my first time in Venice.”

And honestly, it was way more French-girl chic than Emily could ever be.

“We thought this would be a chic switch-up.”

For Collins, the new trim just worked.

“Changing my hair always brings out different sides of my personality and I love playing around.

This cut and color feels bolder and yet somehow lighter.

And moreme, right now,” she said.

And who knows, maybe in Season 5, Emily will also sport a chic bob.

She chopped off her super long wavy hair and went for a chin-length textured bob instead.

“So at 10 months, this girl had long hair.

I’ve never had short hair like this.”

So, she knew it was time for a big chop.
