Miley Cyrus Is Channeling Her Dad With Her Latest Hair Style

In late November 2019, Miley Cyrus debuted a shorter, razor-cut mullet hairstyle. Fans fully lost it. Back then, although, we hadn't even seen its true form.


Cyrus took to Instagram with a freshly-cut twist on the fashion she showed off back then, and it's a much more dramatic take on the fashion than what we previously saw. The earlier cut was dubbed "the modern mullet" by celebrity hairstylist Sally Hershberger. This one? It's probably called "The Billy Ray."


In her new photo, Cyrus is seen peering out at us from in back of fashionable black sunglasses while pulling up one sleeve of her T-shirt. Her hair is currently much shorter in the front with fluffy bangs, and more range in the back, which still isn't the shortest she's ever gone, although it definitely does look different.


"New hair. New year. NEW MUSIC. 💀," Cyrus wrote.


The cut's official name, by way of Hershberger, is the punk shag, and yes it was achieved with a very special technique.


"To get the edgy look, I point-cut her hair and then used a razor to slice it into a shag – it was a very natural process. To fashion it, we did a rough dry and then I used my 24K Vanity Hair Shaping Balm and 24K Golden Touch Nourishing Dry Oil to finish off the piecy look," Hershberger mentioned of the cut in a press release.


"It’s a very fashion-forward look although very no-fuss, both reflective of Miley’s personality."


Previously, Hershberger had told E! News that Miley had been looking for something "more punk" and "edgy."


"We went with a modern mullet that she can wear sleek, nevertheless also wavy and messy," Hershberger mentioned of the original cut.


With the fashion being indicative of Miley's new era, we can't wait to be able to see what this shows for the tone she's about to set with She Is Miley Cyrus, which is set to debut later this year. In the meantime, we can bop to the slinky new song she previewed for the new year.
