What is a butterfly haircut? | Abingdon | Didcot | Wantage | Oxfordshire

The butterfly haircut is reasonably easy to maintain and without many styling options from air drying to styling with hot tools like curling iron, hairdryer or straighteners, the butterfly cut represents a demand-free haircut. That being said, one of the components that will require additional or less commitment is your hair type and texture. For clients with naturally thick or textured hair, the layers help to remove excess weight and encourage better shape, often making the style more manageable though this can sometimes require a little more day-to-day intervention when it comes to styling. On the other hand, clients with finer hair can benefit from the introduction of layers that create the illusion of volume which if your hair behaves itself, can be considered largely maintenance-free!

The butterfly cut can conceivably be cut every 6-12 weeks on average dependent upon the rate of your hair growth, your hair texture and how you like to present your hair day-to-day. If you’re unsure why you should get your haircut this often, here’s more information. For example by keeping the shorter layers cut to shape helps to preserve the signature butterfly shape, especially around the face.
