this style is for
Dislacimer
The person who loves the idea of the voluminous butterfly cut but wants a softer, more romantic, and less overtly layered version of the look.
Hairstyle Insight
A "soft" butterfly cut is achieved by using more subtle layering techniques, like "slide cutting," to blend the layers seamlessly, rather than the choppy layers of the original.
Key Benefits
A softer, more romantic take on the trend.
Creates beautiful, blended volume.
The color is rich, luxurious, and dimensional.
Looks incredibly healthy and full.
A sophisticated and timeless version.
Common Misconceptions
That you can't have layers and bangs together.
How to ask your stylist for this style
Ask for a "voluminous butterfly cut with soft Birkin bangs." For color, ask for an "'Expensive Brunette' with subtle, multi-tonal highlights and lowlights."
Tools:
Choosing Products
A texturizing wave spray; a high-quality hydrating hair mask; sulfate-free shampoo.
Step by step instructions to achieve style at home
Style the butterfly cut with a round brush blowout.
Let the Birkin bangs air-dry.
Maintain the color's richness with a weekly hydrating hair mask.
Caring for your hair
The butterfly cut requires trims every 8 weeks. The "Expensive Brunette" color is low maintenance and grows out softly.

Can I have bangs with a butterfly cut?
Yes! The soft, face-framing nature of Birkin bangs is the perfect complement to the heavily layered, face-framing butterfly cut.
