The 26-year-old actress showcased a shocking new look, a blonde buzz cut, earlier this week and she admitted she was excited when her 'Underwater' director Will Eubank suggested she chop off her locks because she's always wanted to try the dramatic do.
Speaking on 'Today', she explained: "I'm doing a movie in a couple weeks called 'Underwater' and I play a mechanical engineer that's working on an oil rig that's on the bottom of the ocean floor.
"So for me, it's practical. I'm not going to be able to have touch ups when I have a helmet on. I must have my head!
"I've been wanting to do this for a long time just for novel sake just because at some point in your life, you want to be able to do that.
"[When the director suggested it] I was like, 'Who told you?' That's a great idea! You should take credit for that.' I was so game."
And so far, the 'Personal Shopper' actress is thrilled with her new look.
She said: "It feels amazing. I just want to head bang all day!"
The 'Adventureland' actress previously admitted she wanted to shave her head at some point in her life.
And now she's got the buzz cut - which she debuted just a few days after showing off another dramatic cropped lock - Kristen may be planning even more changes to her appearance as she also voiced her intention to get her skull tattooed while she has no hair.
Speaking in 2014, she said: "I'm definitely going to shave my head before I die. I will definitely tattoo my head while it's shaved before my hair grows back. I'm not sure which part, probably the bottom quadrant in the back. I don't know what the tattoo would be, yet. Still thinking."
