Are you looking to rock a classic but modern haircut this summer, but aren’t sure what to try? Look no further! Today we here at Headquarters Barbershop are walking you through the five classic haircuts that'll give your 2023 a new look and feel, at least as far as your hair is concerned.
Looking for a haircut that exudes confidence and flair? The Pompadour is a go-to choice. This look adds volume and height. First have your barber throw on a fire side fade, then have them craft a signature pompadour on top. There are a lot of types of pompadour, so be sure to bring some reference photos for what you are thinking! Now all you have to do is throw on some matte pomade or paste and you’ve got it, a modern twist on a classic style.
Sometimes, less is more, and that's where the Crew Cut shines. This low-maintenance haircut is all about simplicity with a touch of elegance. For this cut ask for a short trim on top between a half an inch and 2ish inches long, whatever you are feeling, and then have your barber taper the sides. It works like a charm, you get a clean and polished look that'll have heads turning your way.
It’s a classic for a reason. The buzz cut is a low-maintenance yet stylish haircut that offers a clean and masculine look, and with it being summer it will help you beat the heat as well. Kiss bad hair days goodbye, along with most of your hair, and say hello to a perfect summer look.
While to some the Mullet is a target of jokes about the 80s, to other its the perfect classic to bring back into style. A modern mullet is more polished and crafted than an old-school 80’s version, but the principle is still the same. Cut it short in the front, and let that mane flow in the back. The trick is finding the right barber who knows how to connect the front and the back seamlessly, that is where the experts over Headquarters Barbershop in Scottsdale come in. Ask your barber about if a mullet is right for you.
The combover is a classic option for the top of your head. It can be combined with various lengths and types of fades on the sides, but this look is characterized by combing the hair over and back to one side. This often results in a clean part, which can be played on in various ways by your barber to make a unique but timeless look. If you love your hair short on the sides but are looking to grow out the top, this might be a fun look to explore.
Congratulations, gentlemen! You're now armed with the knowledge of five classic haircuts that'll have you looking like a modern-day icon. From the classic combover to a newschool mullet, there's a style for every man. So, head to your barber to have a chat, and let them work their magic.
