Kylie Jenner’s Modern Vintage Hair Transformation: Copper Curls and Pixie Cut

Kylie Jenner has revealed a series of dramatic hair transformations in a vintage-inspired photoshoot for Issue 23 of Puss Puss magazine. The imagery features the Kylie Cosmetics founder adopting styles that deviate significantly from her signature black hair, including bright copper curls and a short pixie cut.

The photoshoot, captured by photographer Kat Irlin, centers on a collection of 1920s flapper-inspired ensembles. Jenner’s looks are characterized by a blend of historical aesthetics and modern beauty elements, utilizing wigs and bold makeup to achieve a nearly unrecognizable appearance.

Copper Curls and Flapper Aesthetics

One of the most prominent looks in the series features a bright copper wig styled with glossy curls. The hair, which the reporting describes as resembling delicate, pulled glass, was styled by Igor Rosales-Jackson.

To complement the vibrant hair color, makeup artist Ariel Tejada applied a heavy smoky eye with detailed eyelashes and thick black eyeliner. This beauty look was paired with a beige trench coat featuring bold black lining, brown vintage-inspired pumps, and silver-and-gold jewelry, including a star-spangled statement necklace and drop earrings.

The styling for this specific look was managed by Mackenzie Grandquist and Alexandra Rose Grandquist, who integrated the copper hair into the shoot’s overall neutral color scheme.

The Pink Pixie Transformation

In addition to the copper curls, Jenner modeled a super-short pixie cut featuring bright pink highlights. This hairstyle was worn beneath a large, sculptural headpiece, further emphasizing the avant-garde nature of the photoshoot.

For this second look, Jenner wore a gauzy, sheer halter dress and nude lipstick. The aesthetic was completed with long beige nails created by nail artist Zola Ganzorigt.

Context of Recent Appearances

These transformations follow a period of high-profile public appearances for Jenner. On March 15, 2026, she attended the Vanity Fair Oscar Party in Los Angeles.

The Puss Puss magazine shoot follows previous colorful hair changes, including a transformation Jenner debuted during the 10 Years of Kylie Cosmetics Celebration in West Hollywood, California, on October 17, 2025.
