Travis Cut

From the film "Taxi Driver" (1976). The central character (played by Robert De Niro) goes doolally and society is to blame. During his journey into madness and mayhem, he decides to shave his hair into a mohican style or mohawk. This hairstyle has since been particularly embraced by punk rockers thanks mainly to this movie and the bands Plasmatics and Discharge. The De Niro character is called Travis Bickle... therefore a "Travis Cut" ("Bickle Cut" sounds too much like a chunky sandwich spread).
Travis Cut were also the name of a UK punk band from the mid 1990's.

Puppy Cut

A made up term used by dog pet parents who have no idea what type of haircut they're wanting or what exactly grooming a dog entails. The term 'puppy cut' has no actual meaning as far as a hairstyle. To groomers, it means 'try to interpret every little thing they say and incorporate it into the groom, because they're probably going to be picky even though they won't be clear of what they're wanting.'
"I wasn't happy with the last stylist I used. She said Bella was completely matted and 6 months is too long to go without getting Bella groomed and she shaved her! It looked terrible so I waited almost a year until it grew back out. So today, I just want her to have a puppy cut."
