Has Timothée Chalamet Shaved His Head? The Rumors Explained

It appears that K-pop idols are not the only celebrities hiding new hairstyles. Cue: Timothée Chalamet finding another use for his beloved scarves, which has fans thinking the actor might have undergone a major hair transformation.

If you are on Timmy’s internet and you have been online this week, you might have come across a flurry of speculation claiming the star has shaved his head, but is it true? And if it is, what does it mean? Below, we break it all down.

Fans began speculating that Timothée Chalamet could have gotten a buzzcut when new pictures of the actor spending time with girlfriend Kylie Jenner and her sister Kendall at a beach in Saint-Tropez were released.

In the pictures, which you can see here, Timothée does indeed appear to have gotten a new haircut, as the hair on his nape area is considerably shorter than it was in the past month, prompting many to think it might have been freshly buzzed. “OMG BUZZ CUT!!??,” one fan pointed out on X, with plenty of others following suit.

The reason why we can’t make out whether Chalamet might have gotten a full buzzcut or some other hairstyle that features a neck fade (like he was rocking back in March at the Oscars, as you can see above) is because the star hid the presumably new look under a navy Nike cap and a not-suspicious-at-all green paisley bandana tied around his head grandma-style — or, to be specific, “italian grandmother chic” style, as another fan noted.
