The butterfly haircut is a hairstyle featuring shorter face-framing layers that goes to the length of hairs.[1] It has been used in the world of fashion and hairdressing.

The butterfly haircut was first introduced in 1920s and became popular again in the 1960s.[2]The butterfly haircut, also known as the bowl cut, gained popularity in the 1960s and 1970s. It is characterized by its rounded shape resembling an inverted bowl or, as the name suggests, a butterfly. The haircut is generally short on the sides and back while the top is left longer and cut evenly, creating a distinctive look.

The haircut is characterized by short layers that are face fitting and then layers through length of the hairs, which allows the person to get a look of short hair without actually getting them cut short.[3] It gives a look similar to a bob cut, but with longer hairs.

There are several variations of the butterfly haircut, including a mid-length Butterfly haircut, and a curly Butterfly haircut.[4]

People who have worn a butterfly haircut include Shania Twain and Christie Brinkley.[5]
