Here’s What You Need To Know About the Viral TikTok “Jellyfish” Haircut Trend

Haircut trends for 2022 have been quite edgy and daring. The mullet, the mixie and the bowl haircut styles were all hot moments of the year, and now we have another viral one blazing our TikTok feeds: The jellyfish haircut.

The hybrid of a mullet and bowl haircut #Jellyfishhaircut has amassed over 1.6 billion views on TikTok. The style ditches those layers in favor of two very blunt, distinctive tiers that mirror the sea animal. The top layer is cut above the chin and directly across the face. The bottom is layered in a medium length, depending on the vibe you're going for. The longer the bottom layer is, the bolder the overall look. As the jellyfish haircut is gender-neutral, it's a perfect way for lovers of this trend to show off their unique personalities.

For this style, any hair type can pull off the head-turning moment, but for those with wavy, curvy or afro-textured hair, the jellyfish cut may lose those blunt layers that define the style. If you're interested in trying it out with textured tresses, we suggest seeing a professional stylist to help you maximize the effect and achieve the look you want.
