Meryl Streep’s Daughter, Louisa Jacobson, Has The Best Bixie In Hollywood

A short hair phenomenon has swept the nation – nay, the world – and it shows no signs of slowing down. Celebs appear to be in agreement: 2026 is the year to shear. But how short to actually go? There’s Meghann Fahy’s new shoulder-skimming bob, or Billie Eilish’s chin-length strawberry blonde chop. Ariana Grande recently unveiled a flicked take. And who wasn’t itching for a snipping after laying eyes on Zendaya’s pixie? So, to bob or to crop? Louisa Jacobson has swooped in with an answer, in the shape of a perfect bixie cut.

Shorter than a bob but longer than a traditional pixie – with enough length to tuck the hair behind the ears – the bixie offers a layered midground between the two cuts. And, luckily for The Gilded Age actress, a short, directional style is practically in her DNA. Who could forget her mum Meryl Streep’s iconic silver coif from The Devil Wears Prada?

Further proof that the actor is one to watch right now? Jacobson has been teaming her androgynous hairstyle with an appropriately cool-girl wardrobe: look no further than the chic Conner Ives cumberbund trousers and bolero jacket she wore for her show’s New York premiere this week, or the deconstructed skirt suit she stepped out in that same day.
