Billie Eilish is reviving a controversial haircut trend. On Jan. 20, the actor performed at the Fireaid Benefit Concert for California Fire Relief, sharing the stage with Billie Joe Armstrong. The singer, who has been spotted in a bevy of hair colors from lime green to platinum blond in the past, was wearing a rather understated jet-black shade for the occasion. Still, Eilish has never been one to shy away from a head-turning beauty moment—and her new octopus cut is proof.
For the look, Eilish kept the majority of her mid-length hair intact. As is customary for the animal-inspired style, she cut the top portion of her hair into a bob. The combination allowed her preexisting curtain bangs to naturally create something reminiscent of a shag. Octopus haircuts blew up in 2022 and have been spotted on celebrities like Nicole Kidman, Kerry Washington, and more. The style is one of many inspired by wildlife, with wolf hairstyles and jellyfish cuts having also spent some time in the spotlight.
