Evan Rachel Wood Debuts Pixie Haircut

True Blood actress Evan Rachel Wood debuted a new pixie haircut at Tuesday night's Season 4 premiere party in Los Angeles.

Wood, who has favored long locks throughout her acting career, hit the event with a short coif with bangs long enough to comb into a big swoop.

She told Access Hollywood, "It just felt right. I had my hair super long and I was just ready for a change and I've always wanted to do it and never really had the guts and I just thought, 'I wanna do it at least once, just chop it off.'

Wood has a recurring role on the HBO vampire series as Sophie-Anne Leclerq, the Vampire Queen of Louisiana. She's also in George Clooney's Ides of March, which opens the Venice Film Festival at the end of August.
