Robert Pattinson debuts his new hairstyle: an undercut with a back soul patch?!

wenn21926551

I think we know by now that Robert Pattinson is in that “can’t keep our hands off of each other” loved-up phase with FKA Twigs. He’s been following her around Europe and America like a puppy and it is, in a word, ADORABLE. I like seeing Sparkles so enamored with a lady who actually seems to reciprocate, who seems to be happy in their relationship. A lady who is not Mini-Coopering random married men in parking lots and hiking trails.

I also think FKA Twigs is the reason Sparkles is trying to mix it up a little bit with his “look.” These are photos of Sparkles at the GO Campaign’s 7th Annual Go Go Gala in Beverley Hills yesterday. Robert debuted his new hairstyle! He actually got his haircut about a week or so ago, but he’s been doing a good job of keeping it wrapped up. So this was the big debut! An undercut with some kind of hipster “soul patch” or “faux rat tail” in back. You can see a better photo of his rat tail/patch here at the Mail.

Minus the faux rat tail, one of my first “boyfriends” had basically the same haircut. It was the ‘90s and skaters were big. It was important for a guy to have this kind of shaved undercut, with long, floppy hair on top. There were bonus points if the floppy top hair had asymmetry. Anyway… I hope this is just a phase, because Sparkles looks sort of ridiculous. He doesn’t know he looks stupid though, because he’s in The Love Haze. FKA Twigs probably told him that his hair looked amazing. And he believed her! Which is sweet.

PS… His eyebrows are looking kind of crazy, right? Twigs might want to tweeze him a little bit.

    So so bad.

  2. Size Does Matter says:

    Please tell me this is for a movie.

    • mimif says:

      There is no havering any other way.

    • Esmom says:

      I will not accept any other explanation.

    • mango says:

      Nope. He told a reporter he did this himself after Idols Eye got cancelled.

      • KellyBee says:

        Really odd because Lainey gossip said he schedule to start filming a WW2 movie this month. The hair cut fits that time period minus the pach in the back.

      • Anname says:

        I think the shaggy 70s hair (for Idol’s Eye) drove him crazy (along with the goofy mustache), so when the movie fell apart unexpectedly, he just chopped it all off in a little revolt. He does need the length on top for Childhood of a Leader, which films in January, so he couldn’t buzz the whole thing.

      • Mi says:

        Lainey has no info about Rob’s schedule and it’s not a WW2 movie.She has no cources so I don’t know why people think she has.

      • Mari says:

        No. I’m sorry, Rob, but no. No no no no

    • Size Does Matter says:

      Or maybe he lost a bet?

  3. Leah says:

    Maybe he’s been watching Peaky Blinders on the BBC!
    Apart from the weird landing strip he looks good, he got his pretty back lately.

    • Kitten says:

      Just finished first season. Good Stuff.

      • **sighs** says:

        Wasn’t it amazing? I’m in stitches waiting for the 2nd season to get over here. It’s supposed to be on netflix sometime this month. Squee!

      • Leah says:

        Second season is on tv here in the UK right now. Also The Fall is back on the BBC, the second season premiered last night!

    • AG-UK says:

      Yeah but he can’t hold a candle to Cillian Murphy. I hope it’s for a film as it doesn’t do him any favours but I never thought he was that good looking to begin with.

      • Mel M says:

        Agreed, love me some Cillian. Rob has never been attractive to me and this look makes him look even worse, ick.

  4. Kitten says:

    Ha! I like that FKA is getting him in touch with his funky.
    They’re super-cute together.

  5. Lori says:

    God if she would just wash his hair for him! It looks so dirty!

  6. PunkyMomma says:

    He looks like Moe Howard.

  7. Angela says:

    The haircut is atrocious, but in general he looks fresh and boyish. I can believe he’s happy, love haze looks good on him.

    • **sighs** says:

      Definitely in the love haze. Good for him. But the hair is atrocious. Especially the patch. That just makes it god awful.

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      I agree. I’m afraid I don’t appreciate that haircut, but his face looks cute and happy. I thought a soul patch was a little patch of hair under your lip. Is it that thing on the back of his head? Lol, man I’m old.

  8. Santia says:

    Is it me or has he lost the hot?

    • Hazel says:

      Facially he looks better than he has done in a while. It seems he’s done with partying lifestyle he was indulging in whilst he was single and he looks better for it, but that atrocious haircut is doing him no favours. It’s plain wrong.

    • Leah says:

      Ha! I just said the opposite, feel like he got his hot back again. There was a period last year when he looked rough, kind of pasty and pale. In these photos he looks boyish and fresh again.

  9. Hazel says:

    He’s definitely a weird one.

  10. Gina says:

    I’m starting to think he & that Twigs singer are a match made in heaven, two weirdos…

  11. Hannah says:

    He’s definetly in that loved up phase. Hollywood life has some blurry vid of fka in his lap and kissing at some vogue dance event in Brooklyn.
    http://hollywoodlife.com/2014/11/12/fka-twigs-sits-robert-pattinson-lap-video-relationship/

    You just know it was her idea to go to that event lol!

    • Mi says:

      His haters aka kstew stans trashing this couple like crazy.It’s like they both commited the crime because they dared to make out in the club.I’m happy for Rob and FKA Twigs and hope they will be together despite the paps harassment and hate spreading on social media.She is strong I guess because after those horrible racist massages she received on her IG she’s still with Rob.On Rob fan sites there are better pics.Hollywood Life is the worst.

  12. Jackson says:

    Ok, so I finally googled FKA Twigs to figure out who she is and what she does. I’m curious as to what this woman is called by friends and family? Does she go by her actual name of Taliah, or some iteration of ‘FKA?’

  13. joe spider says:

    Never did see the attraction of this guy, always looks as if he needs a wash. But that hairstyle is ridiculous, he is so going to regret it.

    Actually this is how the Normans had their hair at the time of the invasion of England in 1066. Just Google “Bayeuax tapestry” if you don’t believe me.

  14. Anname says:

    Kristen has to live with the consequences of her own actions, it doesn’t just go away because you want it to. She threw Rob into a media circus with that scandal of hers, and he has to deal with the fallout – so does she.
    Rob has a weird haircut, but really, an intervention?? His eyes are always clear, he is always in total control, never causes public scenes and there are no real rumors of trouble. You may not like his choices in girlfriend or style, but stop with the unfounded accusations.

  15. Katie says:

    His hair is obviously ridiculous but apart from that he looks really good!

  16. Courtney says:

    That haircut is so, so bad. Most of his pretty *was* the hair. Remember that GQ photoshoot? From that to this? How the mighty have fallen 🙁

  17. mia girl says:

    Fan of the guy, not a fan of the haircut.
    That said, I kinda love the reason why he got it, and am “Awwwing” at the Love Haze these two seem to be in.

    My theory is that FKA Twigs created this cut herself. Awwwwww

    • PunkyMomma says:

      Yup. Seems kinda logical that a lady nicknamed Twigs would like manscaping. (Yes, I know, I know her nickname refers to her joints.).

      ✨Sparkles✨ does have that love giddiness look about him. Freshly laid, if I can say that. 👀

  18. Anname says:

    When you see pics from the front view, he looks young and tousled. But I do not like the back, it’s so Rob to do something crazy like that. Hope he cleans it up soon, but he probably won’t – he enjoys the weird!

  19. Tulip says:

    The back looks…a bit like a fancy bikini wax. But I’ll give him points for trying something, anything different. And if it was her idea and he did it for her…well, again I’m not going to blame someone who’s in love.

  20. serena says:

    He’s so good looking that even this disaster of a haircut suits him.

  21. Tig says:

    Love the suit! Will be interesting to see how this cut works with a tux- that event he is attending/presenting(?) is black tie, right?

    The hair- clearly, he likes it, or Twigs does! It’ll grow out at some point. He has such great hair- why does he fight it so? LOL

  22. Jess says:

    I love the smirk in the side pic. It’s like he knew people were gonna freak. Not a fan of the hairstyle but everyone is entitled to experiment .

    • Ramona says:

      Yes he knew that people would freak because his fans are too heavily invested in his every move but isn’t this guy a little too old for this? Isn’t he almost 30?

      • Danielle says:

        28. Nah its fine, he spent most of his 20s doing whats expected of a teen heart throb in a blockbuster including getting back with his cheating ex for the movies sake.
        Hes entitled to a little self expression.

      • loop says:

        agreed, he’s too old for this.

  23. mia girl says:

    Nah, no one around these parts is personally “pressed” by Stewart. It is just stuff like that never “moves on”.

    People still talk about all kinds of scandals of other celebrities many years after (Britney’s meltdown/Tiger Woods cheating/Angelina alleged blood vial-brother kissing/Hugh Grant picking up a prostitute/Sienna Miller-Getty/Meg Ryan-Russell Crow, etc etc). In every Robert Downey Jr article there will always be some mention of his incredibly troubled drug fueld times/being found sleeping in some random kids bedroom. People STILL talk about Debbie Reynolds/Eddie Fisher/Elizabeth Taylor. This is not unique to Stewart.

    She was caught making out with a married man in broad daylight. There are actual photographs. Fair or not, it will be associated with her for a long time.

    PS I hate the phrase “pressed”

  24. whatsmyname? says:

    hahahhaha omg this looks sooo bad, from the front it looks like a wig that’s about to fall off it’s terrible.

  25. Missy says:

    Its so bizarre how the Robsteners have had a complete meltdown on this woman he is in love with. They attack her unconventional style choices and race like she is some kind of black Medusa who is seducing their golden boy.

    Been watching some videos and he is actually really pretty, surpringly girly and actually seems a bit shy. She reminds me of Lisa Bonet, Zoe Kravitz, Erykah Badu, that kind of girl who has that hipster alternative vibe going on but really pretty underneath all the crazy style choices

  26. Jessica says:

    I’ve never found him attractive and his haircut is ridiculous.

  27. Jenny says:

    He looks younger all of a sudden twigs loving must be doing him some good!

  28. Kate says:

    This is an absolute disaster. He looks like a total wreck with a landing strip on the back of his head. It’s beyond the haircut, he just does not look good at all.

  29. Mi says:

    My comment disapired..The scandal is mentioned in Rob’s articles when he promotes his movies.Especially old dudes from the press are interested in asking Rob about something he didn’t do.The persons responsible for it got never asked about it and how they felt when they were caught by paps.Only the victims are still asked about it.The fact like it was written here is insulting to FKA Twigs and she didn’t do anything wrong.

  30. Danielle says:

    New york magazine had a funny take on his new hair cut:
    Robert Pattinson Got a New Cool-Kid Haircut

    “Every time Robert Pattinson goes out to meet his new girlfriend, FKA Twigs, I imagine he stands in front of his wardrobe looking for the hippest thing he owns. He sighs. Then he turns to the mirror with a grumble of heavy despair and says to himself, Robert, Robb-o baby, how can you expect to continue to entrance this creative, stylish, boundary-pushing goddess of a woman, if you continue to cling to the tame, sweeping hair of a Teen Vampyre heartthrob?

    He’s finally caved to his own punishing, hypothetical internal monologue and gotten a new haircut. Us Weekly has photos of his new do — though it’s hard to tell if it’s a mohawk, or an under-shave with a tiny, styled rat-tail variation à la Skrillex.
    Either way, it appears that Pattinson — wearing a baseball cap over that do — is still a little shy about his brand-new cool. We trust Twigs to be patient as he explores.”

  31. Heat says:

    The hair is awful. I was a teen in the 90’s when skater boys were hot (to me, anyway) and none of them had hair as terrible as this. He looks more like Moe from the Three Stooges.

  32. Jess says:

    Awful haircut, I was thinking it was ok until I saw the side shot, no no no. My attraction to him comes and goes, he can look really hot or really gross, it’s confusing to me, lol. He does look extremely happy though, it’s cute, and I’m glad he’s with a girl who isn’t afraid to touch him in public. He seems like the type of guy who loves affection and falls in love hard, good for him.

  33. Cindy says:

    He seems like such a nice guy.. and his new girlfriend is talented and beautiful. The hair from the front isn’t so bad, but the back? It looks like a rodent jumped on his head (and got stuck there).

  34. Tiffany says:

    These photos are of a man with a multimillion dollar contract with Dior. I would want my money back ASAP.

    • Mi says:

      LOL Why?He endorses a fragrance not his persona,he’s an actor not a puppet in Dior’s hands.He didn’t ask for a contract only people from Dior wanted him.I don’t think that Dior would want their money back from Jen Lawrence when the world saw her nude photos.I don’t even think he wore Dior suit at that event,probably Gucci.

  35. Debbie says:

    Did he ever wonder if the movie was canceled because of his appearance?

  36. I Choose Me says:

    I like him with FKA Twigs but that haircut is super fug.

  37. Atlanta says:

    He looks very happy and good. The hairs whack but it’s just hair it grows back!

  38. Rawr says:

    At first I thought the hair was absolutely ridiculous, but after awhile I thought about what it’d be like to run your fingers through it and feel the different textures. It does resemble a crab sitting on his head, but I like that it’s different. Idk if he pulls it off based on pics alone, but “crazy” hair like his can be pulled off if you’ve got the oomph.

  39. TOPgirl says:

    Looks like FKAtwig got a little creative with his hair. LOL!
