Butterfly Layers Haircut Curly Hair
Butterfly Layers Haircut Curly Hair - The beauty of the butterfly haircut is that it’s pretty low maintenance. It works with your hair texture to give you that “effortless” look.
However, if you do find yourself wanting to style it (because hey, you can NEVER have too much volume) then we recommend using a good hair mousse to add some extra oomph.
We absolutely love the Davines Volume Boosting Mousse. It adds airy volume to any hair type – perfect to dress up your butterfly layers!
The butterfly haircut works with all hair types, though natural, curly and wavy textures tend to work best due to the defined, layered nature of the style.
However, when it comes to thin hair, you might want to steer away from this cut. Adding lots of layers to already thin hair can make it appear even thinner
This style sees the hair across the middle into two sections: front and back. Once divided, the hair is trimmed around the front to create short layers, combined with long layers through the back. This provides the hair with dimension, body, and creates soft movement.
Your face will be framed by the shorter layers of hair around the front, while the long layers fall down your back, meaning you don’t need to sacrifice the length.
It is called a butterfly haircut as the soft flow of layers from front to back gives the effect of wings fanning your face.
Yes, for anyone with curly locks wondering whether the butterfly haircut method will work on their hair, it does. In Brad Mondo’s original tutorial, he demonstrates on straight hair. Some TikTok users have also straightened their hair with heat styling tools before attempting the cut. But you can achieve the butterfly cut with curly hair, if you just follow Mondo’s method above.
The style, with its long and short layers, will work perfectly on curls as it will accentuate the flow of your curly hair and frame your face.
