Bryce Dallas Howard on Friday said in a social media post that she regrets cutting her bangs before her 2017 appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

Dallas shared a throwback picture of her and “Jurassic World’ costar Chris Pratt on Instagram. Dallas, 41, told her 2.7 million followers that the decision was a “big mistake.”

“#TBT to 5 years ago this week when I cut my own bangs the night before appearing on national TV,” she wrote. Dallas continued by poking fun at herself in the caption with a description of the photo.

“BDH (left) stands next to Chris Pratt (right) to greet the Jimmy Kimmel Live audience. DH’s hair is down and her bangs are swept to the right because they are two to three inches TOO SHORT,” she wrote. “Not cute short like Audrey Hepburn; short like how my Mom would cut my bangs in 2nd grade.”

Pratt, 43, joked about the photo in the comment section.

“Ha!!! And I died my own eye brows the night before with Just For Men beard dye. I mean, if this acting thing don’t work out we could open up a beauty salon,” he wrote.

Howard and Pratt have starred alongside each other in all three “Jurassic World” films. The most recent film, “Jurassic World Dominion,” hit theaters on June 10, 2022. In an interview with Insider’s Ayomikun Adekaiyero, Dallas said she was paid “much less” than Pratt for the 2018 sequel, “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.”

“The reports were so interesting because I was paid so much less than the reports even said, so much less,” Howard told Insider. “When I started negotiating for ‘Jurassic,’ it was 2014, and it was a different world, and I was at a great disadvantage. And, unfortunately, you have to sign up for three movies, and so your deals are set.”

She said Pratt pushed for her to receive equal pay on franchise opportunities that weren’t already contractually binding.

“What I will say is that Chris and I have discussed it, and whenever there was an opportunity to move the needle on stuff that hadn’t been already negotiated, like a game or a ride, he literally told me: ‘You guys don’t even have to do anything. I’m gonna do all the negotiating. We’re gonna be paid the same, and you don’t have to think about this, Bryce,” she said.
