Scarlett Johansson's January 2012 Cosmo Cover: Red Hair! (PHOTO, POLL)

What Happened To ScarJo's Hair?

When we first saw January's Cosmopolitan cover, we were struck by the gorgeous redhead on the cover.

Then we were like ... wait. That's Scarlett Johansson?

It's ScarJo, indeed. The actress spices up the first Cosmo of 2012 in a purple lace OMO Norma Kamali dress and a mop of red curls. And is that our favorite armpit-flashing pose?

On the cover, Scarlett also reveals her inner arm tattoo of a sunrise, which she's been reticent to talk about in the past.

Though we were surprised to see her auburn curls, this isn't the first hair changeup for Miss Johansson. Scarlett, who turned 27 just last week, also went red last year to star in "Iron Man 2" alongside Robert Downey Jr. She most recently took a turn as a brunette back in October for the filming of her new movie "Under the Skin."

The actress also posed with her new red 'do for the December 2011 issue of Vanity Fair.

All in all, we think Scarlett is breathtaking no matter what, and the red does flatter her eyes, but ultimately, we prefer her with her natural hair color: blonde.

Check out the Cosmo cover below (it hits newsstands next week) and tell us: are you feeling ScarJo's new red mane?
