'Jellyfish haircuts' are trending! Are you ready for this jelly?

The 2025 Grammy Awards took place on Sunday, 2 February in Los Angeles and, as always, celebs came to slay with a showcase of daring beauty trends. One style, in particular, jellyfish hair, stole the show.

The jellyfish cut (also known as a 'step mullet' or 'step bangs') is an edgy layered hybrid of a long mullet and bowl bob cut. 

It features a blunt chin-length layer with a face-framing fringe or sharp blunt bob with longer hair flowing in the back, which resembles a jellyfish's distinctive, tapered tiers.

The contrast between the short and long sections creates a striking, almost ethereal effect, making it the perfect choice for those who want a futuristic, high-fashion look.

In Japanese culture, this style of cut is called 'The Hime', which was reserved for royalty during the Heian period. 

Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga and other celebs have sported a modern version of the cut at the Grammys recently. 

Here it is (as seen on Instagram), rocked by Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus and more:

Will you give this trend a try, or leave it for the majestic ocean creatures?
