Aaron Taylor-Johnson is ready to kick ass in the grooming department.
After wrapping production on his upcoming movie 28 Years Later, the 34-year-old actor decided to switch up his look and showcase a hair makeover on his Instagram Stories. “From one look…” he wrote over one photo on Thursday, August 1, “… to another.”
In the first picture, Taylor-Johnson posed in a pink button-down as he modeled his full-grown beard and long locks. The next slide, however, showed the actor taking a mirror selfie as he debuted his stubble face with freshly chopped air.
If the hair makeover wasn’t enough, fans also applauded his physique as he posed in an orange tank top and matching shorts.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Sam Taylor-Johnson found love, despite a 23-year age gap. The couple originally met when Aaron auditioned for Sam’s directorial debut, Nowhere Boy.

One thing the actor is focused on is staying in great physical shape. With help from his trainer Matt Hodges, Taylor-Johnson has been able to look and feel his best on major projects like Kraven The Hunter, Kiss Ass 2 and Bullet Train.
“You should focus on big movements that work for your body,” Hodges told Men’s Health in March when sharing his workout tips. “Not everybody can deadlift, not everybody can squat with a barbell on their back. Find a trainer who can get you to grips with really good strength training. Once you’ve done a prolonged period of strength training, you will pile on a lot of muscle.”
