So as near as I can tell she kept the annoying sheep dog bangs and shaved the rest off. Pretty bad IMO.

The only picture that looks good is from the side. She has a nice neck and the really short part looks OK. The front end is just not attractive. You're right, can't tell its the same girl, but I don't think thats a positive.

Those earlier pictures taken on the street in a wind on a Sunday afternoon didn't look good. Which shows that even a woman as beautiful as Keira can have a bad hair day in the wind.

After some time with her stylist, inside, and smiling, well, the cut looks hot.

Keira looks fantastic! That's a tough hairstyle to pull off, but it suits her perfectly. Wow!

from etonline ...

"'Pirates of the Caribbean' and 'King Arthur' star KEIRA KNIGHTLEY won the Breakthrough Actress trophy, and unveiled a new, short hair style! She told Jann that the cut was actually for a new flick she was doing about bounty hunters, "I love it, it's very liberating to have it all chopped off.""

I kind of suspected it was for Domino.

If you look, the cut now actually appears to be a bit shorter around the back and sides than the first LOndon pictures.

Absolutely awesome! I was hoping she had short hair for an upcoming picture. She looks great in this style!

WOW! She looks freaking incredible....what a doll. Can't say that I've seen a better celebrity makeover in quite awhile.

She looks awesome. Better then ever!!! Very sexy. I love the fact that she cut it even shorter then when we first saw the hair cut and the color looks good to. The short hair really makes her look sexier then with the long hair. That makeover is right at the top with the Alyssa Milano pixie and the Liv Tyler short hair cut. And Mandy Moores hair cut as well.

She looks absolutely stunning with that cut.
It’s probably the best she’s ever looked in my opinion.

It does appear to be a half an inch to an inch shorter on top in the back. It also looks a lot more stylish. The candid shots looked like it was a little haphazard. The front is either blond or a much lighter brown than she had it.

She conveys a tomboyish personality so the cut seems to suit her. Unlike some celebs (Alyssa Milano, Marley Shelton, Ashley Judd) who look great in long and short hair, Keira's long hair was rather limp and unstylish.

It is very attractive on her. Her cheekbones and eyes jump out more with the short hair.

She is absolutely gorgeous!!!

The fun part on wireimage is scanning back to page 10 or so, and seeing how long it USED to be.


What a babe! If only more actresses would follow her lead!

My two cents.

Wow, and I thought she was hot with long hair. I never dreamed that she would go short. Fantastic! There hasn't been many celebs going short lately. Maybe it's a start of something good?

Just when I was getting all depressed seeing the last days of Charlize Theron's gorgeous long blonde hair on the cover of this month's Vogue, finally some good news.

I give it very high marks. The best cut since Milano by far.

There is a God.

Any bets on how long it is until she starts wearing extensions? It is going to take forever to grow out though. It is cut extremely short in the back.

I guess this effectively ends discussion about the stupid buzz cut though.

Arch94, here they are.

With long hair, in the way she was wearing it right before the cut:



With the new short hair, from the same angle:



IMHO, there's no doubt about how she became so much more beautiful with short hair.

I think there is a general consensus that her hairstyle immediately before the haircut was not her best. It's just that this new look isn't her best either, at least that's my opinion.

I definitely intend to see the movie.

Hmm... the short-hair pic also shows her revealing much skin and shows her body's shape. This wouldn't lend to viewer bias favoring this pic, now, would it?

It's a better picture, to be sure, but it's a good haircut as well, assuming you're not predisposed to hating short hair on women.

I never cared for that banged look she had, but she looks good in both short and long hair. I think this is probably my favorite look.
