Gen Z trendsetters have long since discovered this trendy haircut: Billie Eilish and Jenna Ortega wear the wolf cut.
Layers, volume, fringed bangs: Trendsetters like Billie Eilish (21), Miley Cyrus (30) and Jenna Ortega (20) have already discovered the hip wolf cut for themselves. One thing is certain: this haircut is perfect for anyone who wants to attract attention with their hairstyle. The wolf cut impresses with its distinctive cut: the hair has a lot of volume at the top, the volume in the hair becomes significantly less towards the bottom. Hallmarks of the wolf cut are curtain bangs and airy layers.
Homage to trend hairstyles from the seventies
The hairstyle should look familiar to hairstyle trend experts. The characteristics of the wolf cut are very reminiscent of the shaggy cut of the 1970s. The shag experienced its stylish peak in the seventies thanks to famous personalities such as Jane Fonda and Farrah Fawcett. The shaggy cut was part of the hippie and rock ‘n’ roll culture of the 70’s and was often associated with a rebellious and free way of life.
Like the wolf cut, the retro trend hairstyle is characterized by an extremely layered and fringed cut. In the eighties, wild pop stars like Madonna and David Bowie discovered the hairstyle and gave it a rebellious image.
This is what defines the wolf cut
Now the fringed look of the seventies and eighties has regained popularity in the form of the wolf cut. The wolf mane is also characterized by a very layered and fringed cut, which provides a special hair texture and lots of volume. The moderate version of the wolf cut is the Cub cut worn by “Wednesday” star Jenna Ortega, among others.
Typical of the wolf cut is that the top hair is cut very short. Therefore, when visiting the hairdresser, you should be aware that the hairstyle cannot be easily adjusted. It takes some time for the fringed steps to grow out. On the other hand, the wolf cut is considered to be very easy to care for and requires little effort when styling. The more rebellious and wild the look, the more rock star vibes you exude!
