Actress and hipster icon Kristen Stewart is famous for her chic short hair, but it hasn't always been that way. Stewart decided to cut off her long locks in 2015 to show the world that confidence comes from within and not from adhering to society's standards of beauty. Here are 11 enviable instances of amazing Kristen Stewart short hair.



Choppy Bob
Stewart kept her style simple until her role as Joan Jett in 2009s The Runaways when she debuted a choppy punk-rock cut. It was the first of many Kristen Stewart short hair looks.



Pinned-Back Pixie
Stewart kept with her shortened style all through 2009 with a messy pinned-back crop.



Red Shaggy Bob
In 2014, Stewart stunned her fans with a daring shaggy bright-red crop at the Chanel Couture show. As the first Kristen Stewart short hair look in years, this new 'do was a showstopper.
