‘Do things that scare you’

Guess you’d call that a Bald … win?

Ireland Baldwin posted a series of selfies showing off her new, platinum blond buzzcut via Instagram on Sunday.

“Don’t tell me I won’t do something because I will,” the model, 26, declared in the caption, adding “buzzed by @hairmettle 💕” and crediting hairstylist Hannah Bonetti for the edgy ‘do.

Baldwin also shared a snapshot to her IG Story, superimposing the pic with a message about her newly invigorated outlook on life and beauty.

“Do things that scare you. Do things that you’ll never do,” began the statement.

“My hair was destroyed by years of bleach and modeling and bulls–t since I was 17,” she added of her experiences as a model, a career that began after she signed with IMG in 2013.

Baldwin, who towers at 6-foot, 2-inches, tall, had previously kept her naturally blonde wavy locks at least shoulder-length, though often much longer, throughout her adult life.

“It’s long overdue for a restart/refresh,” Baldwin added.

“I’ve always wanted to do this but I was always scared. Now that I don’t care about what other people think, I feel more beautiful than ever.”

The model also posted a selfie to her stories superimposed with a brief message extolling the virtues of a give-no-f--ks outlook on life and beauty.

Needless to say, Baldwin’s friends, fans and family alike were all amazed by her bold and buzzy switch-up.

Words apparently escaped Paris Hilton, but who needs ’em when a simple “😍” can suffice as an expression of any heart-eye-felt reaction.

“Dreamy,” lauded actress Hilary Duff, with Bishop Briggs adding, “STUNNING.”

Tess Holliday also chimed in, writing “Loooooove,” while beauty queen Nadia Mejia gushed, “Insane!!!!😍😍😍.”

Last but not least, Baldwin’s mother, Kim Basinger, didn’t pass up the chance to remind everyone that this was still her “baby.”

“Don’t tell her not to do something……. because she will,” she wrote. “i’m a witness to that and have been for many years… Simply beautiful👏👏👏👏👏👏🚀🌈❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨🌸.”
