Zoë Kravitz has parted ways with her waist-length box braids for a refreshed bob. And while we're well aware that Hollywood's ladies are gaga for the bob, Zoë's latest chop has less to do with staying on-trend than gearing up for her latest role reprisal.

"She's baaaaccckkkk. #Christina #allegiantpt1," the 26-year-old captioned her Instagram selfie, showing off her return to short hair and to the Divergent franchise's set.

Minimally styled into tousled waves, the actress' refreshed golden brown ‘do is exactly what her character, Christina, would demand. 

And really, the shorter look couldn't come at a better time for Kravitz herself—while her long locks made many of her Cannes red carpet looks as of late, the shorter cut will be ideal for filming Allegiant Part 1 in the smoldering Atlanta heat (where the flick beings production this week). 

While Lenny Kravitz's daughter will likely rock this short style throughout the summer, Divergent fans will have to wait to see Christina's until the movie's release in 2016.
