For Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet, there are no half-measures<\/a>, and that includes his haircuts. The 29-year-old Hollywood star stunned fans this week by showing off his newly shaved head during an evening outing at Yankee Stadium with girlfriend Kylie Jenner<\/strong>. The actor, known for his heartthrob-worthy curly mane, officially inaugurated a buzzcut\u2014a hairstyle that speaks volumes.<\/p>\n \u201cThe buzzcut sported by Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet is a cut that immediately conveys strength, virility, independence and confidence,\u201d Matteo Orlando<\/strong>, hairstylist at the Mastromauro salon in Milan, explains. \u201cIt\u2019s not a hair look for everyone: you need character to wear it, but that\u2019s precisely why it\u2019s so magnetic.\u201d<\/p>\n The advantage of radical removing so much hair, says Orlando, is that \u201cit brings out the features, look and proportions of the face: it\u2019s as if it strips the person of all artifice, letting the essence emerge.\u201d Orlando also emphasizes the liberating component of the gesture. \u201cCutting the hair altogether\u2014especially for someone like Chalamet, who is used to a rebellious, soft and rather long cut\u2014can have a deep symbolic meaning. It is a way to reset and restart.\u201d<\/p>\n A photo from last spring: Chalamet with soft brown curls.<\/p>\n <\/span>Mondadori Portfolio\/Getty Images<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n And for those who would like to imitate the actor? \u201cRemember that the buzzcut needs to be touched up every two weeks or so if you want to maintain the clean-shaven effect like Chalamet\u2019s,\u201d says Orlando. \u201cBut it\u2019s also an opportunity to experiment: you can play with shades, gradations or longer textures on the top.\u201d In any case, one thing is certain: the new Timoth\u00e9e teaches us that sometimes, the real headshot is having the courage to change.<\/p>\n Originally appeared in Vanity Fair Italy<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
