According to sources, Dakota Fanning is not wearing a wig here; she cut her hair into a pixie cut for her new film, Now Is Good. She kind of looks like Macaulay Culkin.
Dakota is playing a terminally ill girl who is determined to make the most of her last days alive. According to a hair expert who spoke to HollywoodLife.com: “Dakota Fanning’s hair looks like it has been cut. By looking close-up at her roots you can tell it is not a wig.”
I don’t think it’s a big deal she cut her hair. Plenty of great actresses have done it for their roles (i.e. Natalie Portman, Demi Moore).
What do you think of Dakota’s pixie cut?

lol like you said, why is this a big deal at all? haha and what’s with her facial expression in that second picture?

She looks like a lesbian. No offense intended. Just… she looks incredibly like a boy.
guest
wow i’m suprised, but figures it would be for a movie role. it will grow back fast anyways!
guest
ugly as f*ck
guest
I would never cut my hair for a role. My hair is precious to me. Hair is one of the first thing that attracts me to a person. If you don’t have nice hair, I probably won’t think you’re beautiful/handsome/pretty/hot/etc.
guest
Holy crap, she looks like Laura Marling!
guest
I think the photo isn’t a good one to judge by.. she isn’t wearing makeup (not that she HAS to, but we do see celebs with a lot done to their face at events and whatnot usually), it’s small, she didn’t expect this to be taken, etc. If it’s for a movie, whatever. I think it looks decent.
guest
Well it makes sense thats its for a role as a terminally ill girl because it makes her look she is ill but she still looks “vogue”.

I don’t like it at all. At least it’s just for a movie.

I don’t like it…but it’s for the movie and actors are known to do these sorts of things for the movies etc;
guest
I don’t think it should be a big deal because it’s for a movie. It’s just hair, it’s not like she was putting her body at risk for health issues by gaining or losing lots of weight to fit the character. It’ll grow back. I think if she were on the red carpet, all dressed up and makeup done, she’d look just fine. The photo is not flattering.
guest
Hate it. But it is just hair, it will grow back!
guest
I don’t care for it, but as long as she’s okay with it then good for her!
guest
Huh. I’m sure it looks better when she’s wearing a little makeup and not making a fish face in a candid photo. The candid photos always seem to catch them with the least flattering possible look on their faces. I’m a fan of short hair, I think there’s hope if she spiked it up or something. and besides, it grows back, so who cares anyway?
guest
Cute. =]
guest
O.O Oh. My. Gosh.
She looks like a boy.
This role better be worth it. I know people say it’s just hair, but that’s not a cute cut at all & hair /does/ take a while to grow back.
guest
Id have to agree with @corpsegutted@xanga. It would be better if she rocked that haircut on the red carpet, all dolled up. Some people can get away with it, some cant. But Im sure that if her hair was styled, it’d look alot better.

It’s not the best cut for her but, it proves she’s pretty into the role and I respect that ^.^
guest
I hate it. & why is she making that face?
guest
It does make her look kinda boyish, otherwise she does look like an androgynous indie chick as well. Nothing wrong with looking boyish, I think it’s very cute and adorable on her. :3
Even though I sport long hair for myself, I also find short hair to be cute on a lot of girls.
guest
Whatev, I like it!
guest
She kind of looks like Jonsi, which makes me happy.
guest
I think that she shouldve just worn a wig for the film not cut off all her hair.
guest
It looks bad either way, but at least if it’s for a role it makes sense. I don’t get the trend of pretty girls making themselves look like 12 year old boys though.
guest
I love it. It’s fresh and adorable.
guest
@surveys_fortheteenageesoul@xanga - she really does! But I think Laura’s suits her a bit more.
