Different versions of the Jellyfish haircut made multiple appearances on the red carpet. Continue reading for a breakdown of the edgy hairstyle trend.


What is the Jellyfish haircut trend? And what does it entail?

The Jellyfish cut is a combination of the mullet and bowl cut featuring different shapes and lengths. The hairstyle went viral on TikTok last year and bears similarities with the Japanese hime cut.

The style comes together when there are layers between the front hair resembling the classic bob and the rest of the hair—cut in different layers to look like the tentacles of the jellyfish. The jellyfish cut is favored by fashionistas who love bold and edgy fashion.

The trendy hairstyle originated from Korean pop culture, and K-pop idols have long been spotted with unique styles in music videos and on the red carpet. There are different variations of the jellyfish cut.

You can layer short hair with bangs at the front for added volume. Styling longer bangs and shorter layers is also another option for the jelly cut. Fashionistas can also play around with different colors to achieve an ombré look.

Miley Cyrus’s Jellyfish haircut features bangs and an asymmetrical cut. Her hair was styled by Bob Recine, who used products like the Nexxus Prep & Protect Heat defense spray, the XXL Volume Medium Hold Hairspray, and the Repair and Nourish Ultra Lightweight Hair Oil.

Billie Eilish was already rocking her Jellyfish haircut two days before the Grammy Awards. Her black hair was styled as a bob at the front, while the longer part was tied back and hidden under a hat.

Lady Gaga rocked micro and long bangs and left the rest of her hair cascading down her back. Her hairstylist, Frederic Aspiras, used products like the Sebastian Professional Dark Oil Lightweight Shampoo and Conditioner and the No Breaker Hybrid Bonding and Styling Spray to bring the look together.


The Grammys 2025 red carpet beauty looks are proof that the Jellyfish haircut trend might just be here to stay. What do you think?
