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.”

Cameron Diaz Recalls Her First Trip to Paris’s Couture Shows

When Cameron Diaz attended Paris Couture Week in January, she had several major pinch-me moments. “When I was 18 and modeling in Paris, I saw Karl Lagerfeld in a crowd of people and was like, ‘Oh my god!’” she recalls to InStyle. “And here I am 20 years later meeting him for the first time.”

Making her inaugural trek to the shows with InStyle, Diaz got to visit several designers’ ateliers and meet the seamstresses who spend hours upon hours creating luxury garments. “It was amazing … couture really is an art form,” she says. At Valentino’s atelier, “the women were so sweet and excited about what they do,” she recalls. “I told them through a translator how in awe of them I was.”

Diaz’s trip to Paris also marked the big debut of her extra-short haircut, styled by the same friend who’s been cutting her hair for the past nine years. “She cut my hair really short,” Diaz says. “But then I thought, ‘No, I really like this!’ It’s freeing, and I feel so much lighter.”

Cameron Diaz’s Shortcuts: How She’s Styling Her New Bob

When Cameron Diaz left her long hair behind this month, one would’ve assumed she lost some styling options in the process. But the actress is showing just how versatile a short cut can be, wearing her hair four different ways in as many days while out in Paris this week.

On Tuesday, before the Armani Privé fashion show, Diaz parted her platinum do from the side (top left), tucking loose ends under her ear. The day before, the actress popped by the Dior show sporting an easy updo (top right), with her roots teased and her ends neatly pinned on the back of her head.

Before Monday’s Versace show, Diaz displayed yet another look, this one a sleek, style that gave her roots lift and left her ends slicked at the back of her head (bottom left). But our personal favorite is her latest, which she wore to Valentino’s Thursday show: a feminine, slightly curled look with long bangs and lots of volume. Tell us: Which of Diaz’s hairstyles is your favorite? If you have short hair, how do you style it?

There’s something about Cameron! The actress returned to her There’s Something About Mary roots recently, debuting a choppy blonde bob while vacationing in Hawaii.

Though it’s obviously not a new look for the star, Diaz had spent the past several years with longer, slightly more golden locks — minus that period in 2006-2007 when she went brunette. But perhaps with a new year — and some new roles — ahead of her, the star was looking for a change. Tell us: What do you think of Diaz’s new do?

Cameron Diaz: I Don’t Understand Trends

Call her fit, fine, fashionable — but don’t call her trendy. Speaking to reporters Sunday night at the Teen Choice Awards in Los Angeles, Cameron Diaz said her style is all her own.

“I have never been into trends. I don’t understand trends,” she said. “I tried on a dress a few days ago that was like, spring 2012, and I was like, ‘Where are we?’ Why can’t I just buy a dress for summer 2011? That’s all I need.”

Looking chic in an A.L.C. strapless “Astrid” dress (ironically from the brand’s resort 2012 collection), the actress joked that fashion is moving too fast for her. “By the time we get to 2012, I am going to be wearing something for 2013 … It doesn’t really make any sense to me!”

With the intense heat and sizzling sunshine, we can’t even fathom summer’s end just yet. There are still trips to take, frozen treats to eat and shoes to buy! But with Labor Day creeping up ever so quickly, thoughts begin to turn toward cooler weather and fall fashion. When stocking up on styles for your post-summer wardrobe, do you consider white? Though it was once considered taboo to go so light anytime between Labor Day and Memorial Day (or in some cases, perhaps Easter), stars and civilians alike have defied the trend in recent years. Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz and Blake Lively all stepped out in white in April, and not one fashionista blinked an eye. So why not rock white pants at a fall fête, don a snowy dress to a winter bash or warm up in a stark white sweater? Though it may still feel like breaking the rules, weren’t rules meant to be broken? Tell us: Do you wear white after Labor Day?
