Have you heard the age-old adage that 'boys don't like short hair'? Well, we have a new one for you, it's 'cool story bro.'

Like all our beauty choices, women pretty much always do it for themselves, and that includes the ever-cool buzz-cut.

Grace Jones attributed shaving her head to her first orgasm, and our own ELLE writer went for the buzz-cut aged 22 with two kids. She wrote, 'I was 22, married with two kids and felt like I'd ticked all the boxes in life. I wanted to be taken out of my comfort zone.'

The buzz-cut got a super charge this year when the likes of Adwoa Aboah gave her famously closely-shaven head a modern art transformation.

Next on the chopping block this year was actress Kate Hudson, who shaved her head for her new film, directed by Sia and co-starring Maddie Ziegler.

Whilst out on the promotional tour for another film she is starring in, called Marshall, the actress popped by the Ellen show.

Ellen Degeneres was obviously intrigued by Hudsons new 'do, asking whether her new boyfriend, Danny Fujikawa, liked her hair, 'because some guys don't like women with short hair.'

To which Hudson responded, 'really?' and continued, 'well I hope our relationship can transcend hair.'

We are pretty certain her other half must love her new look because, let's face it, she looks unreal, but we love her DGAF attitude nonetheless.
