Men's Trending Cuts from Jim Shaw

Now is the best time to change up your style. Whether you are after low maintenance cut or a bold new look, here are some styles I think are going to be making an appearance this Summer.

Caesar Cut

This versatile haircut features a short cut, with straight cut bangs layered to a uniform length all over the head. This is a relatively easy style to maintain and doesn’t require much upkeep. It suits all hair types, including straight, wavy and curly and provides a structured and clean appearance. While this is a simple style, it can be styled with texturising products for a more relaxed look or kept sharp for a more formal appearance.

Textured Crop

The textured crop is characterised by its shorter sides and back, paired with textured layers on top. The cut emphasises natural movement and texture for a low maintenance and casual look. A blunt fringe can be added straight across the forehead or a messier, softer fringe for a more relaxed feel. This style is easy to maintain and a simple tousle with your fingers will create piecey texture and shape. This popular style, remains a classic and doesn’t date quickly, making it a lasting choice.

Mullet

The mullet is a great option as the distinctive contrast in lengths creates a bold, rebellious look. The hair in the front and sides of the head is typically cut shorter, sometimes blended or faded, which creates a contrast to the longer hair in the back. This style creates a strong, graphic silhouette due to the dramatic difference in lengths. In recent years, the mullet has experienced a significant comeback, making it a great option if you are looking for a change.

Broccoli Cut

The broccoli cut features short, often tapered sides and back with a voluminous top of layered curls or waves that resemble a floret of broccoli. While this works best with naturally curly hair, a perm can be used to achieve the dense, textured look. This playful and modern look offers a carefree, yet stylish appearance with a nod to 90’s trends but with a distinct Gen Z twist.
