Top Haircuts for Men in 2025: What’s Trending Now?

By Stacey Simmons, Owner & Barber at Clyde’s Barbershop

Men’s hairstyles are evolving, and 2025 is all about texture, movement, and personality. Translation? You finally have an excuse to stop pretending you “meant” to have that overgrown, uneven mess on your head. At Clyde’s Barbershop, we’re seeing a shift toward bold yet easy-to-manage cuts - because let’s be honest, most guys don’t want to spend more than 30 seconds on their hair in the morning. Here’s what’s hot (and what you should definitely ask for instead of saying, “Just cut it short”).

1. The Textured Crop

Tired of your hair looking like a helmet? The textured crop keeps the sides short while adding some messy-on-purpose layers up top. If you want a little extra attitude, ask for a French crop, which gives you a choppy fringe that somehow makes you look effortlessly cool.

Why it’s popular: It’s foolproof. Run your hand through it, maybe throw in a little product, and boom -you’re stylish with minimal effort.

2. The Modern Mullet

Yes, the mullet is back. No, we’re not kidding. But this isn’t your uncle’s tragic ‘80s disaster. The modern mullet keeps the sides tight and the back longer - just enough to turn heads but not enough to get kicked out of family events.

Why it’s popular: Celebrities made it cool again. Plus, it’s got just the right amount of rebellion without making your boss question your life choices.

3. The Blowout Low Taper Fade

Want that “I woke up like this” volume? This cut keeps the sides fresh with a low taper fade while leaving enough hair on top for that effortless, wind-blown effect. Basically, it’s for guys who want style without looking like they’re trying too hard.

Why it’s popular: You look put together without actually doing anything. Magic.

4. The Textured Undercut

If you like options, this cut’s for you. Short on the sides, longer up top - meaning you can slick it back, mess it up, or pretend you styled it when really, you just rolled out of bed.

Why it’s popular: It’s a classic with a modern twist. Perfect for indecisive people.

5. The Classic Buzz Cut

For the guys who don’t want to deal with hair. At all. The buzz cut is simple, clean, and makes morning routines practically nonexistent.

Why it’s popular: No styling, no maintenance, no problem.

6. The Slicked-Back Undercut

Want to look like a Wall Street guy who definitely has his life together (even if you don’t)? This cut keeps the sides short and the top long enough to slick back. Perfect for the office, date nights, or just looking like you make solid life decisions.

Why it’s popular: It’s classic, polished, and lets you pretend you’re more responsible than you actually are.
