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.[citation needed] It is named after the Roman Emperor Augustus, whose images frequently depict him wearing his hair in such a manner.[citation needed] This haircut first became fashionable among Western boys and men in the 1980s.[citation needed]
In popular culture
The founder and CEO of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, has been a prominent wearer of the Caesar cut in the past. Since 2024, however, he has worn his hair in a different style.[1][2]
