The Caesar cut is a hairstyle with short, horizontally straight cut bangs. The hair is layered to around 2–5 cm (1–2 in) all over.1 It is named after the Roman Emperor Augustus, whose images frequently depict him wearing his hair in such a manner. This haircut first became fashionable among Western boys and men in the 1980s.
