Quick Comparison
| Jellyfish Cut (Hard Disconnection) | Wolf Cut (Blended Shag) | |
|---|---|---|
| How the layers meet | They do not meet, there is a visible unblended break | Layers blend continuously from crown to ends |
| What the top layer looks like | A rounded bowl or bell, usually blunt at the edge | Choppy short crown layers with no defined edge |
| Where the shape reads from | The back and side, the bell sits over the length | The front and crown, the volume is up top |
| Best textures | Straight and 2a to 2c waves show it sharpest | Wavy and curly, texture hides the layer joins |
| What I paid at my salon | 85 to 160 dollars depending on the stylist | 70 to 110 dollars for the same length of hair |
| Trim cadence before it loses shape | 6 to 8 weeks for a blunt bell, 10 to 12 if textured | 10 to 12 weeks, the shape softens gracefully |
| Morning styling time on my hair | About 9 minutes, the bell needs a round brush or flat iron | About 4 minutes with texture spray and air drying |
| How it grows out | An awkward in-between phase around months two and three | Just gets softer and longer, no awkward window |
| How reversible it is | You wait for the bell to reach your length, roughly 5 months | Trim the ends once and it is a normal layered cut |
1. Ethereal Silver Bell Over Waist-Length Ash Blonde
This is the pin that started my board. A chin-length bell toned to a cool silver, sitting over ash blonde lengths that reach the waist at roughly 26 inches. The reason it reads ethereal rather than costume is the tonal gap, about two levels between bell and lengths, so the disconnection looks like light falling on the hair instead of a color block. My colorist quoted 220 dollars for the toning alone on top of a 120 dollar cut, and it needs a purple mask weekly or the silver goes brassy in about three washes.
Who it suits: Pre-lightened blondes with straight or 2a hair and oval or long faces.
Tip: Ask for the bell one to two levels cooler than the lengths, not a different color entirely.
2. Punk Blunt Bowl Over Jet-Black Lengths
The hardest version on my board. The bell is cut blunt at cheekbone level, about an inch above the jaw, with zero point cutting so the edge reads as a drawn line. Underneath, straight black lengths hang to mid-back with a solid perimeter. There is no softening anywhere, which is the entire point. My friend paid 95 dollars for this at a specialist alt salon and needs it retouched every six weeks, because a blunt line goes soft faster than any textured cut. The edgier variations push it further.
Who it suits: Thick straight hair and strong features; it overwhelms a very small frame.
Tip: Say blunt, no point cutting, no texturizing on the bell, or your stylist will soften it by habit.
3. Futuristic Chrome-Blue Bell on Straight Hair
A steel blue bell over pale silver lengths, flat-ironed until both sections are glass straight so the light runs in one unbroken band. The futuristic read comes from the finish rather than the shape: every strand goes through a flat iron at 350 degrees with a glossing serum, and any wave kills the effect instantly. Budget an hour of styling the first time you try it and about 18 minutes once you have the sectioning down. The blue is a direct dye and fades noticeably by week four, faster on the bell because it gets more heat.
Who it suits: Fine to medium straight hair, cool skin tones, oval and heart faces.
Tip: Refresh the blue with a diluted color conditioner every third wash instead of redyeing.
4. E-Girl Split-Dye Jellyfish With Micro Bangs
Half black, half hot pink, split straight down the center part, with micro bangs cut about an inch above the brow. What makes it work on a jellyfish rather than a plain long cut is that the bell doubles the split, so you get four color panels instead of two. This was the most expensive idea on my board at roughly 260 dollars for the double process plus 90 for the cut. The bangs need a trim every three weeks. Full bang options live in jellyfish haircut with bangs.
Who it suits: Straight hair, high foreheads that can carry micro bangs, ages happiest under 30.
Tip: Have the split cut into the bell first so the colorist can see exactly where the panels land.
5. Fairycore Wavy Jellyfish With Face-Framing Tendrils
The softest version I saved. A jaw-length bell on natural 2b waves, left slightly uneven at the edge, with two thin tendrils pulled loose in front of the ears. The lengths stay untouched to about 22 inches and get scrunched with a sea salt spray rather than curled. It costs the least of anything here, around 70 dollars, because there is no color and minimal precision work. This is also the version that survives humidity best. More texture-specific notes are in wavy jellyfish haircut.
Who it suits: Natural 2a to 2c waves, round and heart faces, low-maintenance mornings.
Tip: Ask for the bell cut dry on your natural wave so the edge lands where you can see it.
6. Coquette Soft Bell With Pale Pink Ends
A light brown bell that curves under at the jaw, over lengths that fade to a washed pale pink from about the elbow down. The coquette read comes from the curve: the bell ends flick inward toward the cheeks rather than out, which softens the whole face. I wore this version for four months and the pink needed refreshing every five weeks at 60 dollars a go. It is the most workplace-viable idea on my board because the pink sits low enough to hide in a low ponytail.
Who it suits: Medium density straight or wavy hair, square and round face shapes.
Tip: Round brush the bell ends under with a 1.5 inch barrel; a flat iron flick goes too sharp here.
7. Y2K Butterfly-Clip Jellyfish on Mid-Back Hair
The bell flicked outward instead of under, with three small butterfly clips pinning the disconnection line where the two layers meet. The clips are doing real work here, because they draw the eye to the break instead of letting it look like a mistake. Lengths sit at mid-back, around 20 inches, with chunky face-framing pieces. Total styling time is about 12 minutes with a flat iron. My whole friend group did some version of this and it photographed better than it looked in person, which is worth knowing.
Who it suits: Straight hair, oval and heart faces, anyone leaning nostalgic.
Tip: Flick the bell out with a flat iron by rotating the wrist away from your face at the last inch.
8. Grunge Choppy Jellyfish With Grown-Out Roots
Two inches of deliberately grown-out dark root, a choppy bell that has been point cut so the edge is uneven by half an inch, and dry bleached lengths to mid-back. This is the cheapest to maintain of any colored version because the root is the look, so you can stretch to five months between color appointments. The bell still needs cutting every eight weeks. I loved this one on other people and it made my fine hair look thin, so density matters more than the photos suggest.
Who it suits: Thick or coarse hair that can carry visible choppiness without looking sparse.
Tip: Ask for point cutting into the bell edge only, and leave the perimeter of the lengths blunt.
9. Cyber Neon-Green Underlayer Jellyfish
A jet black bell over neon green lengths, which is the reverse of the usual arrangement and much smarter. Because the bell covers the top of the length section, the green only flashes when you move, so it reads as a secret rather than a statement. That also makes it the version most people can wear to an office. The green sits on pre-lightened hair and fades about one shade per wash for the first three washes, then holds. Roughly 180 dollars for the color plus 95 for the cut.
Who it suits: Anyone wanting vivid color with a conservative default; works on all face shapes.
Tip: Ask the colorist to start the green two inches below the bell edge so no green shows at rest.
10. Mermaidcore Jellyfish on 2B Waves
Sea-glass teal melting through the last eight inches of 2b waves, with a natural brunette bell at collarbone length left uncolored. It is the only idea on my board where the bell is longer than the jaw, and it works because the wave pattern keeps the disconnection legible even at that length. Styling is entirely heatless: overnight braids on the lengths only, then two minutes of scrunching. About 75 dollars for the cut and 140 for the color melt, refreshed every eight weeks.
Who it suits: Natural 2b to 2c waves at 18 inches or longer, most face shapes.
Tip: Braid only the length section overnight; braiding the bell too gives you a kink at the edge.
11. Hime-Cut Jellyfish With Cheekbone Side Panels
The ancestor of the whole trend. Blunt straight bangs, two vertical side panels cut at cheekbone level, and everything else left long and straight. It is not technically a jellyfish, because the short section is two panels rather than a full bowl, but every jellyfish board has three of these on it and the aesthetic overlaps completely. It is also the easiest to reverse, since two side panels grow into face-framing layers in about four months rather than five. Around 80 dollars at a salon that knows the cut.
Who it suits: Straight dark hair, oval and long faces, anyone nervous about full disconnection.
Tip: Say hime cut by name and bring photos; asking for side panels alone gets you sideburns.
12. Cottagecore Honey-Blonde Jellyfish With Curtain Bangs
Curtain bangs parted at the center, blending into a jaw-length bell, over honey blonde lengths that fall to about 24 inches. The curtain bangs are what soften the whole structure, because they give the bell a gradual front edge instead of a hard horizontal line. This ran 110 dollars including a gloss. It also happens to be the best grow-out shape on my board, since the bell drops straight into a long curtain fringe. Bang pairings are covered in jellyfish haircut with bangs.
Who it suits: Round and square faces especially, on straight or wavy hair of any density.
Tip: Ask for the curtain bangs to connect into the bell so there is no step between them.
13. Minimalist Jet-Black Jellyfish for Fine Straight Hair
No color work, no bangs, no texture. A sleek jaw-length bell and a blunt perimeter at mid-back, both flat ironed. On fine hair this is the version that works, because the disconnection creates the illusion of two full-density sections instead of one thinning one. Mine measured 2.1 inches of ponytail circumference and this cut made it look considerably thicker in photos. It cost 85 dollars, takes nine minutes in the morning, and needs a trim every six weeks or the bell edge goes wispy.
Who it suits: Fine straight hair that looks flat in layered cuts; oval, heart and square faces.
Tip: Ask for a blunt perimeter on the lengths, never thinned ends, or the illusion collapses.
14. Soft Goth Jellyfish With Blue-Black Lengths
All one shade of blue-black, with the whole distinction carried by the shape rather than color. The bell is rounded rather than blunt, cut just below the cheekbone, and the lengths reach the waist. Because the color is uniform, the light hitting the curve of the bell is what shows the disconnection, which means it only reads properly on glossy, well-conditioned hair. Budget for a weekly bond-building mask if you are dyeing dark over lightened hair. The cut was 90 dollars and the color 75.
Who it suits: Cool undertones, medium to thick straight hair, most face shapes.
Tip: Ask for a rounded bell rather than blunt, since one-color versions look severe cut flat.
15. Pastel Lavender Bell Over Platinum Lengths
A pale lavender bell over platinum lengths, which is the softest way to do a two-tone jellyfish. Pastels are forgiving here because they fade toward the platinum base rather than away from it, so the grow-out never looks wrong. That said, this is the highest-damage idea on my board: it requires the lengths lifted to level 10 first. My stylist refused to do it on hair that had been box dyed within the year, which was the right call. About 320 dollars for the full process at a color specialist.
Who it suits: Virgin or professionally lightened hair only; fair and neutral skin tones.
Tip: Ask for a strand test on the lengths before committing, especially past 20 inches.
16. Editorial Wet-Look Jellyfish for Photos
A styling variation rather than a cut variation. Gel through the bell only, combed back and down so it lies flat against the head, with the lengths blow-dried straight and glossy underneath. The contrast between wet and dry within one head is what makes it editorial. It takes about 15 minutes and roughly a golf-ball of a strong-hold gel, and it does not survive humidity or wind for more than an hour. I use it for events and photos and never for a normal day.
Who it suits: Anyone with a defined jaw or cheekbones; it exposes the whole face.
Tip: Apply gel to the bell only while it is soaking wet, then leave it alone completely.
17. Balletcore Jellyfish With a Low Bun Underneath
This solved the biggest practical problem with the cut. The long section goes into a low bun at the nape while the bell stays down, so you get a neat updo with a soft chin-length frame. It is the only way I found to wear a jellyfish up without the bell sticking out at odd angles. Takes about four minutes with two bobby pins and a small clear elastic. Worth knowing before you commit, since the standard ponytail question is the one nobody in the ranking articles answers.
Who it suits: Anyone who ties their hair back daily; works on every texture and face shape.
Tip: Gather the bun low and slightly off-center so the bell edge does not sit on the elastic.
18. Downtown Jellyfish Bob for a Round Face
The short-hair take. The bell sits at chin level and the lengths only reach the collarbone, so the whole cut lives inside about five inches of vertical space. On a round face this works because the bell edge falls below the widest point of the cheek rather than across it, which lengthens rather than widens. It cost my friend 78 dollars and needs a trim every six weeks. Anything shorter than collarbone underneath and the disconnection stops reading, which is covered in short jellyfish haircut.
Who it suits: Round and heart faces, straight or lightly wavy hair, shoulder length or shorter.
Tip: Ask for the bell to end at or below the chin, never at the cheekbone, on a round face.
19. Copper Jellyfish for a Heart-Shaped Face
Warm copper throughout, with a bell that ends just past the jaw and lengths at mid-back. On a heart-shaped face the pointed chin is what you want to balance, and a bell that finishes below the jawline adds visible width exactly there. Copper also fades faster than any other shade, losing noticeable saturation in about six washes, so factor a color-depositing conditioner into the cost. The cut and color together ran 195 dollars and the conditioner is another 28 every two months.
Who it suits: Heart and inverted triangle faces, warm and neutral skin tones.
Tip: Wash in cool water only; copper on the bell fades first because it gets the most heat.
20. Jellyfish With a Hidden Nape Undercut
A shaved or clipper-cut panel at the nape, hidden completely under the long section. On very thick hair this is a functional decision as much as an aesthetic one, because it removes the weight that makes the lengths sit like a curtain and lets the bell keep its shape. My thick-haired friend said it cut her drying time by about eight minutes. The undercut needs clipping every three weeks at roughly 25 dollars, and growing it out takes eight to twelve months, so it is the least reversible idea here.
Who it suits: Very thick or coarse hair; anyone wanting an edge that stays hidden at work.
Tip: Ask for the undercut to stop two inches below where the length parts, so nothing peeks.
21. Curly 3A Jellyfish With a Diffused Bell
The hardest version to get right, and I include it because half the aesthetic boards feature curls and almost none of them explain the catch. On 3a spirals the bell shrinks by roughly two inches when it dries, so it has to be cut longer than the target, and it wants to become a triangle unless the stylist removes internal weight. Diffuse on low speed with the head upright, never upside down, or the bell loses its round edge. My curly friend paid 150 dollars for a dry cut. Full detail in curly jellyfish haircut.
Who it suits: 2c to 3a curls; 3c and tighter blur the disconnection until it disappears.
Tip: Insist on a dry cut curl by curl, and add two inches to wherever you want the bell to land.
22. Ombre Jellyfish, Dark Bell Into Silver Lengths
A near-black bell fading through steel gray into silver ends at the waist. I saved this one for a year before realizing it fights itself: an ombre wants a gradual vertical transition and a jellyfish is built on an abrupt horizontal one, so the two lines compete. It only works when the color transition starts well below the bell edge, at least four inches down, which lets the disconnection have the top of the frame to itself. Around 340 dollars and a full day in the chair.
Who it suits: Long hair past 22 inches, patient budgets, cool undertones.
Tip: Start the ombre transition four inches below the bell edge so the two lines do not collide.
23. Wispy V-Bang Jellyfish for a Square Jaw
Bangs cut into a soft V at the center, feeding into a bell that ends an inch below the jaw. The V is doing specific work on a square face: the downward point in the center of the forehead draws a vertical line through the widest horizontal part of the face and breaks it up. Wispy rather than blunt matters, because a blunt fringe adds a second horizontal line and doubles the squareness. It costs about 90 dollars and the bangs need trimming every four weeks.
Who it suits: Square and diamond faces, straight to lightly wavy hair, medium density.
Tip: Ask for a soft V with the deepest point at the center of the brow, cut point-wise not blunt.
24. Chin-Length Bell Over Collarbone Lengths
The version I recommend to anyone testing the trend. A chin-length bell over collarbone lengths gives you roughly four inches of contrast, which is enough to read as a jellyfish in photos but shallow enough that it grows into an ordinary shag in about ten weeks rather than five months. It is also the cheapest entry at around 75 dollars with no color. I wore it for three months before committing to the longer version and it never once felt like a costume.
Who it suits: First-timers, corporate dress codes, anyone whose hair grows slowly.
Tip: Ask for a soft disconnection rather than a hard one, so month two never looks like a mistake.
25. Waist-Length Jellyfish With Razored Ends
The full-drama version: a rounded bell at cheekbone level over lengths that reach the waist at about 28 inches, with the last four inches razored so they taper to a point. The razoring is what keeps waist-length hair from reading as heavy and curtain-like under the bell. It is not for fine hair, where the razor thins the ends past the point of looking deliberate. Around 160 dollars at a stylist who razors properly. More length-specific guidance is in long jellyfish haircut.
Who it suits: Thick, coarse or medium-density hair at 24 inches or longer.
Tip: Ask for razoring on the last four inches only, and only if your hair is medium density or thicker.
What a Jellyfish Haircut Actually Is: Two Layers That Never Meet
Before I understood the structure I kept saving photos of shags and calling them jellyfish cuts. The actual definition is narrow. A jellyfish haircut is a disconnected bowl-shaped short upper layer sitting over long lower lengths that have not been cut into at all. The two sections are separated by a visible break, and that break is the entire aesthetic. In a shag or a wolf cut, every layer is blended into the one beneath it so the eye travels smoothly from crown to ends. In a jellyfish, nothing is blended, and if your stylist blends the two sections you no longer have a jellyfish, you have a slightly odd long layered cut. That is the single most common failure, and it happened to me at my first appointment. The short top is usually cut somewhere between the cheekbone and just below the jaw, rounded so it curves toward the face at the sides, which is where the bell or bowl comparison comes from. The lengths underneath keep whatever they already were. The full structural breakdown lives on the jellyfish haircut guide.
Which Aesthetic Suits Your Hair Type and Face Shape
Texture decides how much of the aesthetic you get, and face shape decides where the bell lands. Straight hair shows the disconnection at its sharpest, which is why the punk, cyber and minimalist ideas on this list are all on straight hair. Waves from 2a to 2c are the sweet spot for the softer aesthetics, since the texture keeps the break visible while blurring its edge just enough to look lived in. Curls from 2c to 3a work with a dry cut and a two-inch shrinkage allowance. Past 3b the disconnection starts to vanish into the curl pattern, and by 4a it reads as volume rather than structure. On face shape, my rule after three appointments is simple: round and square faces want the bell ending at or below the chin, because a horizontal line across the widest part of the face makes it wider. Oval and long faces can take the bell up at the cheekbone, which is where the dramatic versions live. Heart faces do best with the bell just past the jaw to add width where the chin narrows. Texture-specific detail is in wavy jellyfish haircut and curly jellyfish haircut.
Jellyfish vs Wolf Cut vs Mullet vs Hime Cut
I asked for a jellyfish and got a wolf cut once, so this distinction cost me real money. A wolf cut is blended everywhere, with short choppy crown layers running continuously into long ends and no break anywhere. A mullet is short at the front and sides and long only at the back, so the contrast runs front to back rather than top to bottom. A jellyfish keeps its length all the way around and layers the contrast vertically, with the short section sitting over the long one like a lid. The hime cut is the closest relative and the one most often mislabeled on Pinterest: it uses two blunt vertical panels at the sides plus straight bangs, rather than a full bowl over the whole crown, so the back of your head has no short layer at all. If you want the shape only at the sides where you can see it, ask for a hime cut instead and save yourself the awkward back view. The comparison table below covers jellyfish against the wolf cut in detail, since that is the swap that actually happens in salon chairs.
Styling the Short Bell and the Long Lengths Separately
Nobody warned me that this cut is really two hairstyles that share a head. The bell almost always needs help, because a short rounded section left to air dry sits flat and slightly outward, which is the worst version of it. Two tools work: a 1.5 inch round brush during a blow dry, which takes about five minutes and gives a soft under-curve, or a flat iron flicked at the last inch, which takes three minutes and gives a sharper line. Use the round brush for the soft aesthetics and the flat iron for punk, cyber and Y2K. The lengths need almost nothing by comparison, and over-styling them is a mistake, because a curled length section fights the bell for attention. On my hair the whole routine runs about nine minutes with a heat protectant spray first. For heatless days, braid the length section overnight and clip the bell back damp, then release both in the morning. My total product list is three items: a heat protectant, a light texture spray, and a serum for the ends.
Growing Out a Jellyfish Haircut, Month by Month
Here is the honest timeline from my own head, at roughly half an inch of growth a month. Month one looks exactly like the day you left the salon. Month two is when the bell edge softens and the rounded shape starts to spread, and this is when most people book a trim. If you skip it, months two and three are the awkward window everyone on TikTok complains about: the bell is too long to hold its bowl shape and too short to join the lengths, so it sits like a shelf. Month four is the turn, because the bell starts falling into face-framing pieces instead of a separate layer. By month five mine had become a passable long shag, and by month seven the shortest pieces reached my collarbone and nothing looked deliberate anymore in a good way. Two things shortened the ugly window. First, asking for a softer disconnection at the last trim so there was less of a step to grow through. Second, adding curtain bangs at month three, which gave the growing bell a job. Related grow-out shapes are covered in grown out short curtain bangs.
How to Ask for a Jellyfish Haircut Without a Disaster
The sentence I use now is this: a disconnected bowl-shaped upper layer, length left long underneath. Twelve words, and it contains the two things stylists get wrong. Disconnected tells them not to blend, which is the opposite of their training on almost every other long cut. Length left long underneath tells them the bottom section is not to be touched at all, not even for a dusting. Then I add three specifics out loud: where the bell edge should fall, using a landmark on my own face rather than inches, whether the edge is blunt or point cut, and whether the perimeter of the length stays solid. Never say bowl cut on its own, because that is a different haircut and you will get it. Bring three photos of the same cut from the back, side and front rather than three flattering front shots, since the back view is where this cut surprises people. Finally, ask for a soft disconnection if it is your first one, and book the follow-up trim for six to eight weeks before you leave the salon. If you are not sure about length yet, read short jellyfish haircut and long jellyfish haircut first.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the jellyfish haircut?
It is a two-tier cut with a short, rounded, bowl-shaped upper layer sitting over long lower lengths that have not been cut into. The two sections are deliberately left disconnected rather than blended, so there is a visible break between them. That unblended break is what separates a jellyfish from a shag or a wolf cut, where every layer flows into the next.
Is the jellyfish haircut a mullet?
No. A mullet is short at the front and sides with length kept only at the back, so the contrast runs front to back. A jellyfish keeps its length all the way around and puts the short layer on top of it, so the contrast runs top to bottom. People confuse them because both involve a short section and a long section, but the shapes read completely differently from behind.
Is the jellyfish haircut high maintenance?
Moderately. The cut itself needs a trim every six to eight weeks if the bell edge is blunt, or ten to twelve if it is point cut and textured. Daily styling ran about nine minutes on my hair, because the short bell needs a round brush or a flat iron flick to sit properly. The long section needs almost nothing, which balances it out.
Does a jellyfish haircut work on curly hair?
On 2c to 3a curls, yes, with a dry cut and about two inches of shrinkage allowance so the bell lands where you asked. From 3b onward the disconnection starts disappearing into the curl pattern, and on 4a it reads as volume rather than a defined shape. Straight and wavy hair show the two-layer structure most clearly, which is why most aesthetic photos feature them.
How much does a jellyfish haircut cost?
The cuts I priced or paid for ran 75 to 160 dollars, with the low end being a simple chin-length bell at a general salon and the high end a razored waist-length version at a specialist. A dry curly cut came in at 150. Color is separate and ranged from 60 dollars for a pastel refresh to over 300 for a full two-tone lift.
What does a jellyfish haircut look like grown out?
Months two and three are the awkward window, when the bell is too long to hold its bowl shape and too short to reach the lengths, so it sits like a shelf. Month four it starts falling into face-framing pieces, and by month five it reads as a long shag. Adding curtain bangs around month three shortens the ugly phase considerably.
What is the difference between a jellyfish haircut and a hime cut?
A hime cut uses two blunt vertical panels at the sides plus straight bangs, and leaves the back completely long. A jellyfish uses a full bowl-shaped layer across the whole crown, so the short section shows from behind too. If you want the two-tier look only where you can see it in a mirror, the hime cut is the lower-risk choice and it grows out faster.
Can you wear a jellyfish haircut in a ponytail?
Not a normal high ponytail, because the short bell is not long enough to reach it and sticks out around the crown. What works is a low bun or low ponytail at the nape with the bell left down, which reads as an intentional style rather than a compromise. That was the single most useful thing I figured out during the four months I wore mine long.
Which face shape suits an aesthetic jellyfish haircut?
Oval and long faces can take the bell high at the cheekbone, which is where the most dramatic versions sit. Round and square faces do better with the bell ending at or below the chin, since a horizontal line across the widest point widens the face. Heart-shaped faces suit a bell finishing just past the jaw, which adds width where the chin narrows.
Should I get a jellyfish haircut?
If you have straight or wavy hair, can commit to a trim every six to eight weeks, and are comfortable with roughly five months of grow-out, yes. If you are unsure, start with a chin-length bell over collarbone lengths and a soft disconnection. That version costs about 75 dollars, reads as a jellyfish in photos, and grows into an ordinary shag in around ten weeks.
Which jellyfish haircut look are you saving?
Two years and 400 saved pins later, the thing I would tell past me is that the aesthetic is a styling decision more than a cutting decision. The cut underneath all 25 of these is the same: a disconnected bowl-shaped upper layer with the length left long underneath. What changes the vibe is the bluntness of the bell edge, where it falls against your cheekbone or jaw, and whether you flick the ends in or out. Pick two or three photos from one aesthetic rather than one from each, because mixed references are what produced my worst appointment. Then read the jellyfish haircut guide and the length pages before you book.
