Britney Spears shaves off her hair

Britney Spears shaved off her own hair during a visit to a Los Angeles salon on Friday.

The Crazy singer asked for the extreme new look at Esther's Haircutting Studio, but hairdresser Esther Tognozzi told the star that she was afraid to oblige in case Spears decided to sue her for ruining her image.

Unimpressed with Tognozzi's reluctance, Britney picked up the hair clippers and did the job herself.

"I just cleaned it up when she was done with it," Esther explained.

She added that Britney was "just there in body and not really emotionally there".
