Rachael Leigh Cook really takes her hairstyle to the next level by showing up at the world premiere of Dr. Seuss' "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" at Universal City on November 8, 2000, with this super short haircut!

She chopped all her hair off and dons a piercing platinum-colored pixie cut. Though this look is extremely bold, Cook's soft and feminine facial features add balance to the hairstyle—a feat that few can achieve.

Cook's layers are cut with a razor to create that edgy and spiky texture. Styling the hair straight up all over enhances the texture even more. The result is totally playful and totally wild.

Rachael's strands were bleached for a super pale blonde color. We think a warmer hue would have complemented her eyes and skin slightly better, but it seems she wasn’t aiming for a natural look.

Sometimes it's just fun to make a statement with your hair. It is temporary, and you can change your look when you want (though growing hair out does take time). Rachael is a great example of how to have fun with your hair and how trying something new won't hurt you.
