A nude woman depicted in a brick-red color stands before a dark gray-blue background with her feet on top of and within a pile of hair. The hair on her head has been cut very short, and she holds the long strands of her hair in her right hand. There is a white cutting tool that resembles a shard of broken glass in her left hand.
