While the likes of Demi Moore, Hilary Swank and Natalie Portman have made it acceptable to shave your head for art’s sake, it seems Malin Akerman has brought the trend to the face. The rising starlet just wrapped “HappyThankYouMorePlease” in which she plays a girl suffering the hair-loss disease alopecia.

“I shaved my eyebrows off, they only just grew back,” Akerman told Tarts at the premiere of her latest comedy “Couple’s Retreat.” “It was so surreal; I felt like a different person. We filmed it. It was like going to the doctor and you don’t really want to take that needle but know you have to.”

But surprisingly, the 31-year-old actually felt more physically attractive without those arches of beauty.

“I was a little nervous but the final look was kind of beautiful,” she added. “I didn’t mind doing it, but I’d heard so many stories that eyebrows don’t grow back – that was the fear. But it was so interesting without eyebrows, when you’re in the shower everything just drips into your eyes and realize what function your eyebrows actually have.”
