Jellyfish Haircut: What Is It and How to Rock It
Know more about this trend, and check out hair pegs for inspiration.
Jellyfish haircut is one of the most unique looks we’ve seen recently. It consists of disconnected layers: a short upper section that looks like a bob or a bowl cut and long layers that reach the shoulders or cascade down your back. This haircut mimics the head and tentacles of a jellyfish, hence the name.
This haircut looks edgy and avant-garde, thanks to the abrupt transition between the short and long sections of hair. It’s popular, too, with #jellyfishhaircut currently having 108.7 million views on TikTok. A lot of users have also come up with their versions of this haircut—from creative ways of styling it to jazzing it up with various hair colors. And if you’re considering trying out this haircut, here are some pegs for inspiration.

True to its description, this jellyfish haircut has long hair that goes past the nape to your back. Highlight the stark contrast between the short and long sections by keeping your hair straight and ironing the tips inward. Have your stylist point-cut the ends of your hair for texture.

This haircut has more defined layers, resulting in a more textured look. Try this if you’re fond of tousled hairstyles, as this choppy haircut looks its best when scrunched.
3. With See-Through Bangs
Soften the look of your jellyfish haircut by adding see-through bangs. This type of fringe adds a delicate touch and balances out the haircut’s bold appearance.
4. With a Two-Tone Hair Color

Put the long section of your jellyfish haircut in pigtails to switch up your look. You can also put it in pigtail braids or a low ponytail tied with a scrunchie if you feel like keeping your hair from brushing against your nape.
What do you think of the jellyfish haircut? Its silhouette makes it unique, so it’s a great haircut choice if you want to stand out. And when you get it, have fun experimenting with various ways to jazz it up and make it you.
