Timothée Chalamet has officially said goodbye to his signature curly hair, and fans have a lot to say about it.
The 29-year-old actor, known for his flowing locks, recently stepped out sporting a completely buzzed head. The dramatic change is for his upcoming film "Marty Supreme," where Chalamet debuts the new cut for his role.
He was spotted showing off the fresh buzz cut during a recent outing with girlfriend Kylie Jenner at a Major League Baseball game, confirming the transformation is real.
Social media was quick to react, with longtime fans expressing shock and disappointment over the new look.
"WHAT DID HE DO TO HIS HAIR," one fan wrote. "The hair needs to come back…C'mon now," another said. "That buzz cut is doing him no favors," a third added.
However, not everyone hated the change. Some praised the actor for switching things up and noted that he still looks great. "He looks like 17 lol and more free and happy than the pressure of handsomeness 😅😅😅😅😅😅 [sic]," a fan of his commented. "He looks good with a buzz cut," another shared. "I think the new haircut looks good on him 👍," one person agreed.
The buzz cut marks a significant shift in Chalamet's style, which has long been part of his on-screen and red-carpet appeal. However, the actor is not one to back down when it comes to portraying his roles in the best way possible, even if it means shaving off his locks.
