Like daughter, like father. Dax Shepard gave himself a major makeover Thursday by taking electric clippers to his hair to give himself an undercut for a very special reason.

"Armor," the "Armchair Expert" podcaster wrote in the caption, revealing what inspired the new look. "Thank you @sarabareilles for giving my daughters an anthem."

Sarah Bareilles' song not only served as a new source of inspiration for his little girls, it also led to one of them to experiment with her look.

"She requested a specific haircut a few days ago, and now I want to match her," Shepard added.

The two-minute video shows the 45-year-old actor fastening his hair to the side so he can buzz away at the strands near his right ear. As he works on his transformation, Bareilles' "Armor" thrums in the background.

The "Parenthood" actor later unveiled his brand-new 'do in a separate post and was sure to throw on a super-proud expression, possibly hinting at the look his little one flashed when she saw the final product.

Neither Shepard nor wife Kirsten Bell revealed which daughter requested the undercut. They share two daughters, 7-year-old Lincoln and 5-year-old Delta.

Bell, when reposting her husband's sweet video to Instagram, gushed, "I love this man so much. He wanted to twin with our daughter."
