    The yummy mummy goes for the chop, ditching her long blonde locks for a choppy brunette crop

    Hair chameleon Jessica Alba has done it again. The yummy mummy stepped out at the Valentine's Day premiere showcasing a new choppy dark crop.

    With her penchant for ever-changing locks, it came as little surprise to see Jessica Alba sporting a drastic new 'do at the starry prem.

    Having already been seen with the short bob at the Super Bowl over the weekend, this was the first big red carpet outing for her new barnet - which she wore in tousled waves, with a heavier, side-swept fringe.

    Rewind a mere matter of weeks, and Jessica was sporting long blonde tresses, for her role in romcom Valentine's Day - but shortly after filming finished, she reached for the scissors and lost the length, as well as making a return to her brunette roots.

    No stranger to the hair makeover, Jessica was seen with long honey-highlighted hair less than a year ago, followed by a brief stint as a fiery redhead.
