Haircutting trends come and go with the times, but one haircut that has already proven to be one of the most flattering and adaptable looks of 2023 is the butterfly cut. TikTok and Instagram users have helped perpetuate this heavily layered cut as one of the year's most popular looks. VEGAMOUR spoke with a hairstylist who explained the cut's origination and appeal. Plus, learn which hair products you should use if you have this layered cut and want even more volume. What Is the Butterfly Cut? The butterfly cut is a modern take on the classic shag haircut with lots of layered movement. There are shorter strands around the face (the shortest layer is often chin length) to create a lovely face-framing effect. There are longer layers throughout, with the shorter layers making a smooth transition to the long layers in the back. Celebrities like this cut because it reflects classic elegance yet also looks low-maintenance and breezy. However, this cut does require some daily styling to keep the texture and shape looking so effortless. This look requires styling products and careful blow-drying to shape the blown-out face frame and a slightly off-center or center part. This haircut looks best on those with medium-length or long hair, but the general style can be adapted for a shorter look. Those with a short hair length that falls at or above the chin might not be able to pull off this cut until their hair is longer. Related: The 6 Haircuts You'll See Everywhere This Spring The In...
