I know almost nada about cuts. But I can tell you one thing about dry hair: dry hair breaks easier and that prevents growth. Be sure to moisturize and condition well-- possibly even using an oil (I do prewash oiling)-- to prevent that dreaded dryness.

Hope this helps,
Anais

I would bring a picture with you of exactly what you want, because if you just say "layers" you could wind up with anything.

The oil advice given above will help you get your hair to lay flat if it's wavyness becomes more prominent when cut in layers. (I say that only because you mentioned Ashton Kutcher and the last time I saw him was on that 70s show where it was straight). A few drops of jojoba oil may be enough to weigh the hair down without making it look oily.
