She took to TikTok to share a video of her attempt to cut her own hair, which began after she had separated her mane into two sections - one at the front and one at the back.
She'd secured each section into a ponytail, and then took her scissors to the front pony, cutting it around where it would hit her eyebrows.
But her reaction wasn't quite as convincing, as she looked in the mirror with her hand over her mouth while examining her handiwork.

What Is Brad Mondo's Diy Butterfly Haircut?
Depending on how thick of a fringe your client wants will determine how deep to part your triangle section. Make sure you ask this question! This haircut can quickly look unbalanced without discussing the details.
The key to the “butterfly” layered effect is cutting smooth, even sections that do not fray through the ends. This haircut is heavily layered, meaning it’s essential to use razor-sharp scissors that do not snag the hair. Creating any kind of hole or breakage will disrupt the symmetrical blend needed. To ensure precise, clean lines Justin uses his go-to, ARC™ Scissors Master Series Paragon II.
To avoid turning this layered cut into a shag, keeping length through the back is super important. Each layer should cascade over the next creating organic graduation.
