In the mid-90s, there was a woman's name that constantly resonated in beauty salons: Rachel. Her most iconic cut consisted of a mane worn in the front, forming a strip of strategically curled strands starting from her jaw.

The return of this hair layering is linked to a much longer and more voluminous hair, as defended by Margot Robbie. The flesh-and-blood Barbie has worn on countless occasions a thick, layered mane of hair (both loose and tied up, leaving two thick strands on her face), which responds to the name of the butterfly cut in Spanish. This term, coined by Sunnie Brook, the hair stylist behind the hair of celebrities such as Elisabeth Moss or Ashley Park, associates the swooping layers that characterize this hairstyle with the insect's wings, which when fluttering are reminiscent of the movement that the strands generate on the surface of the face. With almost 260 million views, the video clips tagged with #butterflycut turn the trend into the hairstyle of 2024, with countless tutorials that explain how to achieve it in our home.
