Selma Blair shaved her head with the help of a tiny stylist, her son.
The "Another Life" actress shared the heartwarming photo on Friday, showing 7-year-old Arthur Saint Bleick holding clippers and helping his mom with her new look.
"Back to my roots," Blair captioned the shot. "I love him."
In the shot, the actress remains stoic as she holds her ear so Arthur can get close.

A few months ago, Blair cut her signature long, brown locks to a short bob revealing she could no longer lift her arms to brush her hair following her diagnosis with Multiple sclerosis.
The actress does not specify if this is the reason she shaved her head.
Blair has been an inspiration after revealing her diagnosis earlier this year.
She's been open about how MS has been tough on her body, which has included the star having trouble with walking and speaking.
Blair's kept in good spirits though and is enjoying every single day as they come.

First sharing her experience with Robin Roberts during a "Good Morning America" interview in February, Blair said she "cried with relief" when she learned the news.
"I had tears. They weren’t tears of panic, they were tears of knowing that I now had to give in to a body that had loss of control and there was some relief in that," she explained.
Blair also had a hard time speaking during the interview, which she said was because she was experiencing spasmodic dysphonia, a neurological disorder which affected her voice.

Selma Blair made her first public appearance since her diagnosis at Vanity Fair Oscars party, where she posed on the red carpet with her custom cane.
