Kylie Jenner is channeling one of the most iconic divas of our time: Jessica Rabbit. One day after being spotted in tousled curls and a full Chanel skirt suit, the Khy founder decided to give her aesthetic a 180—creating an optical illusion that convinced me she was the latest celebrity to cut bangs.
In contrast to yesterday's carefree hairstyle, Jenner’s new look is sultry, sexy, and decidedly retro—an Old Hollywood-inspired glam that feels like the perfect complement to her vintage Alaïa bodycon dress. The knee-length dress was a combination of leopard print and velvet materials, with the latter creating a gorgeous negative space design and ending in a fur-lined hem. A soft brown smoky eye, neutral lip, cheek color, and pink nails fit for Valentine’s Day, completed the mom of two's look.

If you're trying to recreate this faux bang look (I know I am), I'm happy to report that it's actually fairly simple—and doesn't even require trim. Just give yourself a deep side part. “To get Jenner’s shiny curls, always start on clean hair,” says hairstylist and The Second Floor Salon owner, Rogerio Cavalcante. “If you’re using a tool like a Dyson or blow-out brush to get your curls, make sure to use a shot of cool air—this smooths the hair cuticle, enhancing shine and reducing frizz.”
Cavalcante also notes that applying a hair serum helps tame flyaways and enhances shine. Plus, a mist of light-hold hairspray will help keep your hair smooth while still allowing some movement.
Whether you want Jenner’s enviably shiny hair or just a few tools to perfect your signature curls, I curated a list of my go-to products for when I need a hairstyle that gives me my own Jessica-Rabbit moment. From hair glosses to oils and the curling wand that I refuse to live without, these items will give you the Kylie Jenner curls of your dreams.
