“维珍河”明星Alexandra Breckenridge Stuns in Photoshoot with a Chic New Choppy ’Do

Thanks toVirgin River, we're used to seeing starAlexandra Breckenridge(akaMelinda “Mel” Monroe), 41, sporting long, wavy locks—something we recently got a refresher of, as the fifth season of the romantic drama刚刚首映on Netflix. The Connecticut native is throwing us for a loop, however, with a totally new ’do—and let's just say, she isrockingit.

In anInstagram videoposted to her page on Friday, Oct. 13, Breckenridge can be seen posing for a photoshoot in Los Angeles while sporting a black two-piece ensemble of a maxi skirt and a crop top cardigan and a new haircut that completely stole the show.

“When In LA. Photo shoot,” theThis Is Usstar captioned abehind-the-scenes videofrom the session.

While Breckenridge has been rocking shorter hair as of late, we've never seen it quite this short. In the clip, the 41-year-old plays with her choppy, shoulder-length ’do, showing off the wavy, side-parted styling and the heavy side bangs.

We clearly aren't the only ones obsessed with the new cut. One fan commented, “THE SHORT HAIR SUITS YOU SO MUCH OMG,” (and the comment received nearly 200 likes). Meanwhile, another follower wrote, “Girrrl! You can really wear...short hair!!”

We've been getting a glimpse at Breckenridge's hair evolution thanks toa series of videosthat she's been posting to her Instagram page. While taking a break from filming forVirgin River, the actress has beenembracing her inner chef, sharing loads of recipes and cooking videos to her account.
