What is a Korean layered cut?
Korean layered cuts — including the popular hush cut and hime-style face framing — use soft, blended layers so hair looks light and airy rather than choppy. They work especially well on thick or long Asian hair that tends to look heavy.

What is a hush cut?
A Korean layered style with soft, wispy layers around the face and lighter ends, giving a relaxed, effortless look.
Are layers good for thin hair?

Can I combine a layered cut with a perm?
Yes — layers plus a soft digital or S-curl perm is one of the most popular Korean looks.
