While scrolling on the internet lately, you may have come across the butterfly cut, all over your feed – that bouncy, layered hairstyle giving off major '70s-meets-modern vibes. But what exactly is the butterfly hair cut and why is everyone suddenly obsessed with it?

Think of it as the perfect middle ground between long, flowing layers and a chic, voluminous blowout. The butterfly layer cut gets its name from the way the face-framing, feathery layers mimic butterfly wings – soft, airy, and full of movement. Perfect for adding body to flat hair or giving long locks a fresh twist, the butterfly cut is the ultimate style for those wanting volume without losing too much length.
