For someone who’s been in the public eye since Dawson’s Creek aired, Katie Holmes has kept her look remarkably constant. Some things in this world are just reliable: Bella Thorne will (probably) keep mixing her style up until the end of time, and Katie Holmes will continue looking great in stripes and jeans. She knows herself, and power to her—especially because, out of nowhere, she just cut all her hair off and got a brand-new pixie. Now that is a knowing yourself move.
The first photos of her new cut come to us from the airport, as Holmes was arriving in New York. You know if something looks good under those lights, it’s going to be spectacular everywhere else. She quickly covered her new hair under her black hat, but from the glance we got, it looks like a long pixie. So unlike Cara Delevingne’s equally shorn-all-around style, Holmes still has some length to work with. But this isn’t Holmes’ first time in the pixie ring: She went just as short back in 2008 and looked like the dictionary definition of gamine. Clearly, she and her stylists know what they’re doing.

Over on Twitter, people have picked up on the resemblance between Holmes’ cut and Kris Jenner’s. The tweets are, clearly, golden.
Holmes isn’t the only one to jump on this trend; pixies are popping up on celebrities more than ever. This year alone we’ve seen Kate Hudson, Katy Perry, and both Kendall and Kylie Jenner try going short (temporarily and less so). The proof is in the Pinterest: According to the platform, searches for asymmetrical pixies are up more than 120 percent so far this year. Thanks to Holmes, that’s probably not going to change anytime soon.
