The ‘Kitty Cut’ Haircut Trend Is Set To Dominate 2024

Up 400% in Google searches, the kitty cut takes its inspiration from the wolf cut and ’70s-inspired shag haircuts. While these hairstyles are typically cut with a razor to achieve an ultra-textured look, the kitty cut has a more polished effect, with face-framing, rounded layers and a collarbone-skimming length. In essence, its the wolf cut’s sleeker, feline sister with a expensive-looking polish.

Your hairdresser will be able to advise what form of the kitty haircut will suit your hair texture and length, but it typically has long layers that frame the face and a curtain fringe to create a feline silhouette. It looks great cut into a shoulder or collarbone length (and a great choice if you’re thinking of growing out a bob length haircut) but it grows out effortlessly into a long style too.
