Some haircuts never go out of style. A layered Farrah Fawcett–esque chop, also known as the butterfly cut, is one of them. Supermodel Bella Hadid is the latest convert to the retro style.
Hadid dropped in on the pop-up Orebella Ornament Shop in Texas (sadly, only open for the weekend), which was stocked with her own brand of fragrances. Arriving with cowboy boyfriend Adan Banuelos, she debuted a new, bouncy butterfly cut.
It may look effortless, but mastering this style requires some attention to detail. “Focusing on framing the face, short layers are cut in at the front, and they get longer towards the back,” Jake Wanstall, hairstylist at Larry King, previously shared with Vogue. The hairstyle features a shattered baseline, created with a razor for added texture.
Iterations of the butterfly cut, from longer versions to chin-grazing layered bobs, have been very popular over the past two years. A-listers Selena Gomez, Jenna Ortega, and Hadid’s own sister, Gigi, have each dipped a toe into the trend.
There was no trace of the model’s Birkin bangs post restyle by hairstylist Jacob Schwartz. Hadid leaned further into her Western-inspired fashion mood, wearing vintage Anna Sui boots, a Plein Sud denim dress, and a silver heart necklace from Chopard.
To finish off the look, Hadid’s go-to makeup artist Nadia Tayeh highlighted her lids with dustings of silver glitter and shimmery lips—as breezy as the butterfly cut itself.
