  • Miley Cyrus' mum Tish has given her a DIY haircut as she celebrates her 27th birthday and recovers from vocal cord surgery.

  • The day after, celebrity hairstylist Sally Hershberger dropped in to clean up the look and add some more layers.

Cast your mind back to the early 2000s, when most gals in your high school snipped their top layers short in order to achieve the fullet. The female mullet.

Or if you’d like to go back even further, reflect on the 1980s. A decade where pop stars and country crooners like Billy Ray Cyrus were resplendent in gelled and coiffed versions of the iconic business in the front, party in the back arrangement.

Now bring yourself back to the present, because the female mullet is back in a big way.

In their most radical mother-daughter moment of the year - aside from well, Miley’s epic ‘Mother’s Daughter’ music video - Tish Cyrus cut her daughter’s hair into a mullet on Sunday. If you ever get shiver-inducing flashbacks from childhood DIY haircuts from your parents (bowl cut, anyone?), this next bit might be harrowing for you.

In an Instagram video, Tish can be seen cutting a good handful of Miley’s hair off in their bathroom.

Fortunately, celebrity hairstylist Sally Hershberger popped by a day later to make some minor/professional adjustments. She posted the final result on her Instagram:

PUNK VIBE🤘🏻✂️🖤

"To get the edgy look, I precise-cut her hair with a pair of scissors and then used a razor to add definition," Sally told E! News.

Miley’s at-home mullet is nothing like that of her 'Achy Breaky Heart'-singing dad’s, it’s more of a sleek, punk style.

Naturally, the singer can pull it off.

In August 2012, she stunned fans went she shed most of the length of her hair, debuting an edgy pixie crop. She even donned a beard in an episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race earlier this year, and still looked pretty damn cute.

Miley has been getting creative at home presumably because she’s in recovery from her recent vocal cord surgery.

On Sunday, she posted an Instagram story about her birthday celebration, rocking a novelty crown and a blowing out candles on a frosted heart cake. She captioned it: "I will never forget my silent 27th birthday."

Rest up, punk chick. 🤘
