Bad haircuts are tough on anyone. But for Mariska Hargitay, a pixie cut led to her almost being fired from “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.”
The actor opened up about the cut in question during an interview with Allure, published on Wednesday.
“My hairstylist had a glass of wine and I really should have known better,” she said, joking that “Maybe he’d thought I’d be aerodynamic when I was chasing perps. I have no idea.”
“We went real short — shorter than anticipated,” Hargitay said. “I almost got fired.”
Despite the hubbub at the time, the actor says she now sees the cut as “easy, cool, and cop-like.”
