Justin Bieber’s flippy bangs. Harry Styles’ boyish lob. Joe Keery’s retro mullet. When you’re an emerging Hollywood heartthrob, your hair walks into the room before you do — and Timothée Chalamet knows that full well. The 23-year-old’s mop of curly hair has garnered its share of attention, including inspiring its own Twitter account and sparking multiple social media debates.It’s safe to say fans are attached, which is why people lost their minds when Chalamet went and cut most of it off into a bowl cut for a role in Netflix’s The King. After finally debuting the medieval look at the Toronto International Film Festival last September, a general consensus became apparent on Twitter: They didn’t like it. One fan said the reveal of his Henry V-inspired cut was the worst day of their life. Another called it “tragic.” A third said she can’t sleep thinking about it.But everyone has it all wrong. Not only do we still stan the star with that choppy look, but it’s not even his most drastic hair transformation. Go back just a couple years into his career, and you’ll find even more astonishing styles that will remind you: Chalamet is more than his hair, and even more importantly, it always grows back.Check out his full hair evolution, ahead.

Before most of us recognized that smize, Chalamet was but 18 and sporting this spiky look. Not even Lil Timmy Tim was immune to high school trends of the mid ’00s.
A year later in 2015, we got a real glimpse of just how high Chalamet’s hair can go — check out that volume!
Coming of age for Chalamet also meant realizing that crew cuts might not be his thing.
A few months later, Chalamet was getting into his groove… sort of. The curls make their true debut, but are weighed down with tons of gel. (It’s okay, we’ve all been there.)
We’re guessing he borrowed his older sister’s flat iron for this one.
