Let's say it together now. Oops, she did it again.
Much to the delight of tabloids worldwide, Britney Spears decides on this day to take a pair of shears to her famous blonde tresses, leaving onlookers and fans in disbelief with each shorn lock.
"Of course I tried to talk her out of it," said stylist Esther Tognozzi. "I said, 'You know maybe you're having a hormonal moment or something, and maybe tomorrow you'll feel differently about it. Let's talk about this.' "
The incident took place after months of increasingly erratic behavior and just 24 hours after Spears skipped out of a rehab facility, leading many to question the mental state of the young mother of two.
"I think the shaving of her hair is a fresh start, is a new beginning, taking matters into her own hands, doing it her own way," said psychoanalyst Bethany Marshall to ABC News.
"I think most importantly, in her own maybe distorted way, it's getting rid of the superficial and getting down to something deeper."
After her very public meltdown, Spears briefly checked into a psychiatric facility and lost custody of her children, who split time between her and ex-husband Kevin Federline.
With help from friends, family, and a new beau (William Morris agent Jason Trawick), the Louisiana native made a turnaround in 2010, debuting a clothing line for Candie's and starring in a Spears-themed episode of Glee.
