Laura Vandervoort, most recently seen as the young alien temptress on V, showed up at the premiere of the new movie Ted minus about a foot of her blonde locks/tresses/mane/<insert your favorite synonym for "hair" here>:

While still spectacularly gorgeous, this does come as a bit of a suprise if only for the reason that she has worn her hair VERY long (without the aid of extensions) for quite some time now.  Just wondering what may have prompted the cut.
 
And, as an aside, even those now lamenting the the loss of length in the new 'do would have to admit that if you saw her for the first time with the voluminous blonde waves she's now sporting, your first thought would be "Who is THAT?!"
 
As usual,
JerkyFlea

She still looks great; to me, there's not that much difference in looks; long hair is not that much different than longer hair.

At least she's still wearing it at a "long" length. I rather like the look. I suspect as she moves to more mature roles, she wishes to look a bit older. Sadly, very long hair tends to be considered a child/teen thing in our society  by and large. I wish that wasn't so.

Nice either way, but did look like extensions in the first picture.

No Hollywood actress will keep her hair that long, as it's a limiting look that wouldn't fit most roles. The ideal length for an actress is any length where you can put in extensions. Chances are if she gets three or four parts, at least one will want her hair shorter.

Some actresses do wear wigs, but extensions always look better and you don't have to worry about the hair fitting under the wig. No actress wants to make the hairstylist's job harder and she certainly doesn't want the director to feel like her hair isn't right.

Really? I don't see any appeal in this length and style. It seems as bland as bland gets. Can someone explain?

Your hair is your best accessory; wear it with STYLE!

Again, this is one of those styles that I feel folks mistakenly think is fantastic simply because the woman wearing it is staggeringly attractive.  The average woman gets this style and she simply has a shoulder length bob - the follicular version of "mom jeans".

And, if you think this is a better look for her than the "June" pic I originally posted to start this thread, then I believe we shall rarely see eye-to-eye in this realm of hair reviews. Wink

Yes, JerkyFlea, because if the same "average woman" gets the June style it will transform her total appearance because it is a far superior hair style. Nothing about the bob on her looks drab or ordinary. It looks well cut and styled and is flattering on her.

check the picture again, it's nothing to write home about.  If the picture was just a head-shot...I bet we'd hear all sorts of things.

I've looked at all the pics. Not saying the first ones are bad at all. This current look is flattering... even if I crop it to a head shot. I don't find anything boring or drab about it.

Different for her - yes; better? not sure but I do like it

Jerky Flea makes some important points, as does texdillo.
Certainly her beauty could go with any haircut and still look great...so I vote for her to go with a chin length bob!

The shorter hair a woman has the more it draws the eyes to her face. When a woman has as beautiful a face as Laura has, the shorter haircut looks more flattering.

The haircut isn't exceptional, unless you find bobs very flattering. A friend of mine just donated her hair and posted a similar bob on Facebook. She looks beautiful also, but she has also has a pretty face.

My "Wow" was not a "Wow" as in "Wow, she looks better than ever before", but as in "Wow, I didn't think she'd do that".

That said, I couldn't agree less with your "bland as bland gets". That bob -- especially as seen in HAWG's picture -- is *far* from bland. But I can understand how someone with your choice of username could see that differently.

LOL That one cracked me up. I'm sure Laura could make mom jeans look cool, too.

It's a pity she has had so much of her beautiful hair hacked off
