About the Textured Crop for Men
Who it suits
The textured crop suits men and women who want a short, messy, layered look with a fringe and easy spikiness. It flatters round and square faces by adding height and softening the hairline. It works on most textures, with straight and wavy hair holding the piecey separation well and thick density giving the crop plenty of body to spike up.
How to ask for it
Ask for a textured crop with point-cut layers on top and a short, blunt or fringed front, kept choppy and piecey rather than smooth. Request tapered or faded sides to frame the shape. If you like extra height, ask to combine it with a quiff so the front lifts up and back while the rest stays cropped and textured.
Upkeep & styling
Trim every 4 to 6 weeks to keep the crop sharp and the fringe in proportion. Style on dry hair with matte clay or paste, pushing pieces forward and up for a messy, spiky finish.
