Katie Holmes Pixie Haircut Brings Style Back

Katie Holmes has been scrutinized in just about every way possible since getting together with Tom Cruise. Now, those who joke that Cruise brainwashed her or made her lose her mind have one more things they can poke at -- Katie Holmes' new haircut. But Katie Holmes new haircut isn't any old haircut; it's a Katie Holmes pixie haircut. Katie Holmes seems to have brought back the pixie haircut for the first time since the '80s and '90s, according to new photos of her in New York. Katie Holmes pixie cut is already drawing attention, even by her high standards of fame.

The pixie haircut consists of long shaggy bangs and a tapered neck, and was popular in the '80s and early '90s. However, few if any big stars have been using the pixie haircut since then. With Katie Holmes pixie haircut, the pixie is now either back in style or at least has new life on the scene.

Katie Holmes new haircut takes places as she is in New York preparing for a stint in the theater. Arthur Miller's play All My Sons is in revival with previews starting September 18, with Holmes as one of the stars. Holmes also recently filmed a guest star appearance on the ABC drama Eli Stone.

Holmes new haircut comes a year after she made headlines for cutting off her previously long hair and forming a "Bob" haircut. It likely fueled the constant jokes about Holmes being altered by Cruise and Scientology, but it also began a trend of "Bob" haircuts in Hollywood, as others like Victoria Beckham also got the hairstyle.

Holmes also had gossipers gab about her clothes, as she wore rolled up "pegged" jeans and a baggy purple cardigan. The choice of clothing has only fueled some speculation that Holmes could be pregnant again.

Holmes and Cruise have both been under the public eye since they got together, but they had faded from view a bit recently. That has recently changed as Holmes new haircut and pixie looks brings her back into the front pages of the tabloids, while Cruise is also getting new buzz- perhaps his most positive in years- for his much talked about cameo in the upcoming comedy Tropic Thunder.
