It's no secret that men’s hairstyles have been radically evolving in recent years.
The norms are shifting and styles are becoming more radical as barbers deliver creative tweaks to clients who wish to stay on top of the latest trends.
There are plenty of contemporary hairstyles that are much more striking and dynamic than the old short back and sides. These hairstyles are generally old classic cuts that have been reimagined through modern barbering techniques like burst fades and taper fades. The resulting faux hawks, short mullets and crop tops come in endless variations with clients wishing to remain on trend while pushing the boundaries and standing out from the crowd.
