Jessica Alba debuts her post-pregnancy haircut - and looks amazing, naturally
Jessica Alba gave birth to baby number three at the end of last year - and she's finally treated herself to a new haircut. And, of course, the actress is the ultimate #hairgoals.
Taking to her Instagram account, Jessica shared a side-by-side snap of her before and after, with the caption: 'It feels sooo good to shed the pregnancy hair!'

The actress was given the chop by hairdresser Chad Wood. She waved goodbye to her shoulder-length brunette style in favour of a trendy 'lob' - and we are seriously inspired to follow suit.
Jessica is getting set to assume her role as LAPD detective, Nancy McKenna, in NBC's Bad Boys spin-off. Not only is the multi-talented actress starring in the show, she also just so happened to produce it, too.
According to Deadline, Jessica will star as a 'married mother of two preteen stepkids, who joined the Army out of high school and spent most of the 2000s working as military police in Iraq and Afghanistan.' Oooh.
Jessica and her husband Cash Warren welcomed their third baby, Hayden, one day shy of 2018.

"Hayes Alba Warren 12/31/17 Best gift to ring in the New Year!!" Jessica wrote. "Cash and I feel so blessed. Haven and Honor are already obsessed with their new baby bro. #familyof5"
Dad posted the news to Instagram, too:

"Hayes Alba Warren: You sure know how to ring in the new year! You showed up a few days early but we couldn’t be any happier. Your Mamma is the strongest woman I know ... you’re so lucky to have her by your side. You have two amazing sisters who already adore you and I know you’ll be thankful to have them guide the way.
"On your first day of life, I promise to love you, to cherish you, and to provide you with a sandbox full of dreams to explore. Welcome to the family my sweet baby Hayes! 12/31/2017".
Too cute!
Jessica announced the news of her pregnancy back in July. Joined by her daughters, 9-year-old Honor Marie and 5-year-old Haven Garner, Jessica did a cute boomerang revealing the baby bump with her daughters holding up balloons that read 1, 2, 3.

She captioned the shot: "@cash_warren and I are officially going to be outnumbered #babyonboard #herewegoagain #blessed."
Jessica, 36, and Cash Warren, 38, met on set of 2005’s Fantastic Four and got married in Beverly Hills in 2008 after three years of dating.
