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?

I cut my own hair & it’s shorter than Cameron’s.

Donna Glaser on

What is the big deal? She has had shorter cuts than this! And really, did she expect to get a professional from a friend cutting her hair in the kitchen? Makes one wonder if said friend used a hedge clipper!

I just think it doesn’t have any shape to it whatsoever. Whoever cut it didn’t do her justice.
It looks limp with no body.

Thats really sad. Yea..for a woman to lose her hair. Really, lady? Try having cancer, not once but twive and then tell me
about it. Chemo took my hair away twice.

I had that type of misunderstanding once but didn’t cry. I’ve heard so many women tell crying stories about their haircut. It’s just hair. My hair was below the shoulders, I asked for a trim and ended up with a naked neck. Months later, the hair grew down again. Besides, it’s not like Cameron Diaz can’t afford hair extensions and I’m pretty sure she’s used them plenty in her life.
