Cameron Diaz Cried After Chopping Her Hair

Cameron Diaz recently told InStyle her short haircut was “freeing” — but she had very different words for Jay Leno Tuesday night.

“There was a little misunderstanding,” she explained on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno of her pre-Christmas cut. “I said, ‘Oh I just want a little bit off’ … and it went from here to here,” she added, gesturing two very different hair lengths.

Once Diaz saw the new do, her reaction wasn’t so pleasant. “I just burst into tears and started crying, and I felt so vulnerable,” she explained. “For a woman to all of a sudden have no hair, oh my god.”

What made the situation even more awkward was the fact that Diaz’s hairstylist happened to be a good friend. “I felt really bad, she felt really bad, she started crying, I started crying, a couple of other people started crying,” Diaz said. But soon the situation smoothed over. “I ended up writing her a few emails after, the next couple days, assuring her I wasn’t going to kill her.”

As Leno pointed out, it’s unique that Diaz gets her haircuts from a friend (in that friend’s kitchen, no less) — not at a chic Los Angeles salon. But the actress said she’s been getting kitchen haircuts from this friend — and her own mother — for quite some time. She joked, “I’m in her kitchen often with the cape around my neck, going, ‘I hope we’re not going to cook after that.’” Tell us: Would you let a friend cut your hair?

WOW!! She makes a comment about a misuderstanding and how she was upset and didn’t expect to have shorter hair and everyone is going to jump on the cancer chemo train and say she can’t feel that way if she didn’t lose it that way or say hurtful things about her not being married and having kids. Not everyone wants that in their life, what does that say about you to think they do. Maybe she didn’t want to marry or have her own kids. None of those things make her a bad person or a selfish person. It actually makes her human. I’ve experienced all the things cancer brings and it teaches you compassion and strength. It not something you should use to make others feel wrong about how they feel about something because they didn’t experience it. She was upset she has every right to feel that way and express it. you should all get over it.
