Dixie D’Amelio’s haircut at New York Fashion Week was an instant sensation. The influencer’s shaved head shocked fans on Sept. 9 at Harper’s Bazaar Global Icons Party. With her new locks, Dixie wore a nude halter neck gown by Etro featuring side cutouts. The 21-year-old documented the transformation in a YouTube video before the event, confessing, “I’ve wanted to do this since sixth grade.” In the clip, she says, “I just want like, to restart,” later adding, “We’re gonna make it a moment.”
As the TikTok star pondered the important decision, she noted that hair always grows back. “Everyone who I’ve told is like, ‘Oh, that’s going to be dope,’” she continued. “And if someone doesn’t like it, then who cares.” She added, “I just want to be a cool girl.” Although Dixie’s sister Charli D’Amelio witnessed the dramatic makeover, the 18-year-old stated she would not try the style because she doesn’t “have a strong jawline.”
