A hime haircut is a type of hairstyle that is popular in Korea. It is characterized by long, straight hair that is cut in a layered style, with the front and side hair being cut around cheek-length. Originating from a Japanese coming-of-age ceremony called binsogi, the Hime haircut can be lately seen on K-Pop stars such as NewJeans, TWICE's Momo, and more!
To achieve this look, style your hair with straight, cheek-length side locks and a pretty blunt fringe, and leave the rest of your hair down! Check out some of the stars rocking this hairstyle for inspiration!

This style is not for everyone. As someone that has tried this, I looked like a potato with long bangs.
