In addition to model and actress, Milla Jovovich can now add hairstylist to her résumé!
Last week, the Resident Evil actress decided she needed a change and took matters into her own hands, posting two photos of a haircut she gave herself.
"BLAAAH!! Felt I needed a change and had some clippers on hand," Jovovich wrote alongside the photos late last week, each showing a different angle of her edgy 'do. "Anyway, it grows back. Love it or hate it, it's done and now we'll see what it grows into🥳"
The pics — which included one photo of the model sporting bright red lipstick and another one where she's totally makeup-free — showcase Jovovich's new wild and free look, with pieces of varying length sticking out.
In February, the Ukrainian-born model, 47, highlighted the one-year anniversary of the war on Ukraine on Instagram. She posted a video and a poem about a project she's doing with Ukrainian designer Lever Couture "who is taking 'love letters' for Ukraine and sewing them by hand on a couture gown which will be auctioned off" with all proceeds going to the Olena Zelenska Foundation.

"For me, it was really important coming here... Because I have family in Ukraine that are surviving the war. And I really felt like I wanted to represent my people," she explained. To do so, she chose a gown designed by Lever Couture.
"I just happened to see this designer and look at her pieces of art that she calls gowns," the Fifth Element actress continued. "And suddenly a friend of mine was like, 'Yes, she's Ukrainian.' And I met her and we became friends. And I said, 'You know what? This is the perfect place to showcase how amazing, how intellectual, how educated, how cultured the country of Ukraine is.' "

Jovovich said at the time that she had family on "both sides" of the war — the first major land conflict in Europe in decades.
"It's a hard time in the world for everybody and the war in Ukraine, COVID, mass shootings, it's horrible," she said. "But today we're here for a good cause. And today is a day of hope because amfAR is doing good things for people and helping people not just survive with HIV/AIDS, but thrive. So finally, there's a shining light in this dark, dark time."
