Aniston's Hairstyist Explains Her New 'Do

The internet went wild on Tuesday when Jennifer Aniston debuted a short new haircut in Madrid.

So why the change?

Her longtime hairstylist Chris McMillan told Allure magazine:

"I call it a hairline bob that follows the jawline down. It's shortened in back and longer in front. It's angled and inspired by Vidal Sassoon haircuts and Julie Christie from Shampoo. It was just time for a change. We had a blast doing it. And we've always liked this haircut. It's about keeping things simple. The way Celine and Calvin Klein and Jil Sander and all these clothing lines are keeping it really simple and chic. I really feel that fashion right now. All the styles are back to when I first started doing hair. And I love it."

And there you have it.
