The “air cut” is a favorite among influencers and hairstylists alike. Suffice it to say, this will definitely be one of the haircuts you’ll be asking for in 2023. As celebrity hairstylist Harry Josh told Byrdie, “The cut is all about creating volume and movement by using face-framing layers and wispy bangs.” Likewise, “The cut should look airy and a little messy, like you just ran your fingers through it,” which is where the name comes from.
According to HypeBae, the “air cut” originally gained popularity in Korea before taking the world by storm thanks to TikTok. With dramatic layers and curtain bangs, the “air cut” frames your face well. But the volume lies in the bounce. By combining rollers from the bombshell blowout with “The Rachel,” hairstylists created what we know as the “air cut,” according to Joseph Maine, a celebrity hairstylist and Art Director of Color Wow.
As he explained to Byrdie, “If you combine all of these trending styles, you’re left with a bouncy, heavily layered air cut.” If you’re thinking of getting this haircut, here’s what you need to ask your stylist for.
