If you ask us, throwing a comb across the room might work just as well. But who are we to judge?
When Kristen Stewart first cut her hair short back in July we didn't knock it, but now she's just gone one step too far.
The actress debuted her new style two months ago at the Chanel Haute Couture show in Paris, France, when she stepped out with a much shorter mane than we've ever seen her with before.
However with some copper colour in it, the grunge look actually suited the 24-year-old quite well.
But the Twilight star has pushed it to the limit as she was photographed arriving at Los Angeles International Airport.
Not only has her 'fro been stripped off the vibrant shade she was sporting, but it's also lost a few extra inches in the process.
It was a whole new level of bed head for the brunette who appeared like she hadn't even looked in the mirror, nevermind brushed her locks.
Couple that with the denim vest she was wearing and it wasn't a pretty sight in the slightest.
We have a sneaky feeling her lack of effort may be a result of hearing her ex Robert Pattinson is dating again.
Here are ten more celebrities who try to use their follicles to distract us from their failings feelings.
TEN: Lindsay Lohan
Every week, Lindsay appears to have a different personal crisis. And every week, she appears to have a different hair style. THIS CANNOT BE A COINCIDENCE.
NINE: Lily Allen
She's all loved up and happy and motherly now, so we'd almost blocked out Lil's fondness dram-hair (that's meant to sound like drama. But with hair. It kind of works. Sort of. Right?).
Back in 2008, she split from Chemical Brother, Ed Simons, and marked the occasion with a bottle of peroxide.
We'd have opted for wine, personally.
EIGHT: Scarlett Johansson
We'd forgotten all about Scarlett Johansson's marriage to Ryan Reynolds. Probably because she distracted us from it so well with her suddenly shorter and blonder hairstyle.
That, or just because it wasn't particularly memorable for anybody involved.
SEVEN: Rihanna
After Chris Brown turned into our least favourite person ever and assaulted girlfriend Rihanna back in 2009, the popstar felt that she needed a break from everything that had been going on in her life. Cue new clothes, new shoes, and a new, lighter hairstyle. We liked it a lot.
SIX: Cheryl Cole
When Ashley Cole broke her heart in 2010, Cheryl responded by breaking open a box of red hair dye. Thankfully it was just a passing phase. We think.
FIVE: Cameron Diaz
When Cameron Diaz dated Justin Timberlake back in 2006/7, we thought that they were going to live Happily Ever After and have loads of babies and dogs and cats and Lakeland Limited kitchen utensils and things. Then they split up, and we went into mourning.
As did Cam's hair, apparently.
FOUR: Katy Perry
One of our favourite famous person fantasties was that Russell Brand and Katy Perry would spend evenings by the fireside, taking it in turn to braid each other's hair and swap anecdotes about their days. Then they split up, and Katy was left without a man's locks to wrap around her little finger or run her thumbs through. And when there's that kind of hole in your life, there's really only one thing left to fill it with. And it's called hair dye.
THREE: Rachael McAdams
Way, way, way, way, way, way, way *takes deep breath* way, way, way, way, way way, way back before Katy Perry or Vanessa Hudgens or Niall Horan had heard of funny hair dye colours, Rachael McAdams put pink streaks in her hair. We did the same thing to our Barbie dolls with a felt tip pen when we were seven. Unfortunately Rachel's boyfriend Ryan Gosling seemed to feel about it in much the same way that our Ken doll did - unimpressed. The couple split, and Rachel's hair went back to being normal.
TWO: Britney Spears
Pretty much a given, really. But five years on, we're still willing to bet that it's all Veet Hair Removal Cream in Britney's house, and no razors within reach.
ONE: Tulisa Contostavlos
Again, we don't really know what the story is because we were too busy focusing in on her follicles (that's a lie - we know all about everything that happened with Tulisa and the sex tape, we just don't want to type it all out again ) but basically Tulisa's ex boyfriend released a sex tape of the singer. She got mad. She took him to court. She dyed her hair to show how her life hasn't been ruined by all of this. And then she got on a private jet and flew to Ibiza.
Which doesn't sound too bad. Really.
