Pixies

Looking gorgeous while raising small children is no easy feat--but opting for a chic, low-maintenance 'do makes it easier. Halle Berry was spotted in this super-short cut in May 2009.

Good friends are quick to warn newly single ladies not to do anything drastic, like cut off all their hair. Heather Mills waited almost a year after finalizing her lucrative divorce from Sir Paul McCartney before she embraced last year's hottest hair trend, the pixie cut. Unfortunately on Heather, the iconic look is more Mrs. Brady than Mia Farrow.

Mia Farrow
Legendary hairdresser Vidal Sassoon charged $5,000 dollars to cut Farrow's hair for her role in Rosemary's Baby. A fortune by any standard, but even more mind blowing when you consider it was back in 1968!

Victoria Beckham "It was clear that we had to go short and create a new look that embraced her beauty, great personality and body" said Posh's hairstylist Garren, of Garren of New York. Since he's the man responsible for Linda Evangelista's fabulous short cut back in 1988 and Audrey Hepburn's locks before that, you can see why Posh trusted his advice.

Linda Evangelista
When Evangelista first cropped her hair in 1988, she was canceled from all her runway bookings. But don't feel too sorry for her! Two years later she told Vogue that she and supermodel pals Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington "don't get out of bed for less than $10,000 a day."

Rihanna
When she first broke onto the music scene the singer's long wavy locks were part of her signature look, but as Rihanna evolved into the trendsetting fashionista she is today, she traded length for sophistication.
