Kylie Jenner’s haircut has fans convinced it makes her look like someone else
Kylie Jenner recently revealed a new haircut, prompting comparisons to her actor boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet. The reality TV star departed from her usual long locks and opted for a shorter pixie cut, reminiscent of her mother Kris Jenner’s iconic hairstyle. Kylie, 26, shared a photo of her new look, joking that her mom Kris would be “quaking” when she saw it. Kris, however, responded to the post with a witty comment, indicating that Kylie’s bold move didn’t faze her.
“You are not even the fart!” She joked.
Kylie’s caption appeared to play on the idea that Kris is a well-known figure in pop culture, and fans would appreciate their matching hairstyles.
However, fans weren’t just focused on their humorous exchange or Kylie’s new haircut. Instead, they expressed concerns that Kylie now resembled her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet.
Timothée is recognized for his youthful appearance and curly dark brown hair, which he typically wears somewhat long.
While it might seem impolite to compare a man’s hairstyle to a bob, the term “bob” or “mop” could be fitting to describe his hair. Now, Kylie has adopted a similar hairstyle.
“She and Timothee really twinning now,” one fan claimed.
“She’s turning into Timothee!” Another joked.
Another observer noted that Kylie’s haircut exemplified the “boyfriend effect,” a theory suggesting that women often adopt their boyfriend’s style or fashion choices.
This phenomenon is not uncommon among celebrities, as seen with Kourtney Kardashian, who started dressing more like a rock chic after dating drummer Travis Barker.
Similar style synchronizations have been observed with couples like Megan Fox and Machinegun Kelly, as well as Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow in the nineties.
Kylie, 28, has been in a relationship with Timothée for a few months, and they’ve been seen displaying affection at various events, including the Tennis and The Golden Globes.
Despite being an unlikely celebrity couple – she’s an influencer known for mainstream fashion trends, while he’s a critically acclaimed actor with a more indie look – it seems that perhaps Timothée’s style is influencing Kylie’s choices.
