We hope you weren't too attached to Billie Eilish's mullet [1] because, by the looks of the Happier Than Ever singer's new bob haircut [2], it's not coming back any time soon. On Monday, 23 Aug., Eilish posted a series of photos and videos on her Instagram Story of her new hairstyle and the transformation even made it in-feed with a video that she captioned, "gone🧚."
Eilish's new chin-length haircut still features the same wispy bangs that she sported with her shag [3] — she just removed all of the extra length. The bob appears to have choppy layers throughout with blunt ends, giving it a shaggy look, which Eilish has proven time and time again is her preferred style. The only difference this time around was the inspiration behind the new cut: her mom, Maggie Baird. In her Instagram Stories, after showing off her new length from every angle, she included a photo of Baird with the caption, "Like my mama."
Back in March when Eilish got her shag haircut [4], she also dyed her neon green hair, which had become her signature look over the years, to a bright platinum blonde shade. This time around, she may have kept the same hair colour, but her transformation was just as jaw-dropping. It's like Eilish knew we were beginning to think about our next haircut for fall and decided to serve us inspiration on a silver platter — to which we say, thank you.
Take a look at Eilish's bob haircut ahead.
