We’ve seen very little of Taylor Swift since her and Travis Kelce’s pop culture-shifting wedding extravaganza back in July. (And still, not a glimpse or a peep at her Jonathan Anderson-designed Dior dress.) Across the last month, she’s attended her first wedding as a newlywed and, late last week, arrived back in London to a girls night out. Photos were fuzzy—Swift appeared in an, ahem, lavender haze care of a sparkly lilac mini-dress. One thing from her look was clear, though: even Taylor Swift can’t resist the post-wedding hair chop.
Swift emerged from the private members club Annabel’s in London with what looked like several inches cut from the ends of her long blonde hair. The cut looked to be very much in line with the trending “clavi-cut” style—a layered cut that sits around the collarbone, and that’s been tried out by everyone from Hailey Bieber to Off Campus actor Ella Bright.

This past weekend, we got a much fuller view of Swift’s new look as she attended the star-studded wedding of friends and music industry peers Oli Jacobs and Laura Sisk in Bath, England.
If we look back at some of her last pre-wedding public appearances—at the Toy Story 5 premiere, attending a New York Knicks game, hitting up Electric Lady Studios—Swift’s hair was almost waist-length, worn in a princessy half-up half down style, a high pony, and her favorite fishtail braid. There was lots of texture from long layers, and of course, her signature thick, brow-skimming bangs.
New photos show Swift’s hair sitting just below shoulder-length: her shortest look since her chin-grazing, super blonde bob in 2016, and about the same as her Reputation era hair in 2017. Her bangs are feathered and swept to the side in a deep, deep part for maximum volume and movement, the ends naturally wavy. The color, a honey blonde-brunette, tapers into light caramel ends.
