Crew cuts need no introduction since they are probably among the most popular hairstyles for men. And the reason the crew cut never falls off trends is because men love a practical and cool hairstyle that takes them just a few minutes to style.
Crew Cut Styling Tips
You’ll need a trimmer, combs, and clippers to pull off a classic crew cut. Follow the steps below if you want a hairstyle that is ideal for businessmen, cool guys, or those who don’t want to spend too much time in front of the mirror each morning.
- Clean up the sides and the back with a mid-fade.
- Create an amazing blend with the top. If your hair is longer in the crown area, you don’t need to trim it; style it how you feel.
- Use a razor to style the edges and give that hairline an outstanding look.
- As for the top, depending on how long your crown hair is, you can create spikes and style it upwards or to the side.
Trendy Crew Cuts for Guys
Crew cut is probably the easiest cut to style in the morning. You will discover that you do not even need to blow-dry the hair. Rub it with a towel and apply some of your favorite pomade or hair gel. The whole process will probably require only a minute, including washing the product off your hands.
So, if you want a hairstyle that is very simple to style, take a look at these crew cut ideas below.
1. Blue and Red Crew Cut with a Blonde Crown
Unlike all other crew cuts, this hairstyle requires more attention when pulling it off and with everyday style. If you’re using semi-permanent dye for those red and blue nuances, make sure you use a special shampoo for colored hair.
2. Purple Crew Cut with Highlights
If you want a hairstyle that really stands out, a crew cut can definitely provide all the attention you want! Go for a skin cut on the sides and a fade. Transform the top hair into your canvas: opt for a pale purple nuance and style blonde highlights.
3. Platinum Crew Cut
Getting a full white hair color involves a lot of bleaching. So after you style the fade for the sides and the back, begin the process of lightening up your hair. If it’s not white enough, you can use a colored hair spray to boost the impact.
4. Platinum Crew Cut with a High Skin Fade
Even if they are pretty low-maintenance hairstyles, that doesn’t mean that you can’t take a crew cut to a whole new level. Get a high fade and opt for a platinum blonde hair color for the top. Keep your beard neatly trimmed, and you get a modern and cool hairdo.
5. Platinum Crew Cut with a Ginger Beard
Create a wonderful contrast between your top hair and beard. Choose a crew cut and dye the hair platinum blonde, while the full beard is kept medium-length in its natural ginger color. Soften the look with a pair of black rounded glasses.
6. Platinum Blonde Undercut
With this undercut crew cut style, your glasses and hair color will get a piece of the spotlight. This look pairs especially well with fair skin, and make sure the pattern of your glasses suits you.
As for the top, create a contrast between the very short sides and back and that top, which is much lighter.
7. High-Fade Crew Cut with a Bleached Top
Use a high fade to build a small and smooth transition between the longer top and the sides. Dye the longer pieces of hair in a blonde nuance. Style the bangs upwards and to the side.
8. Crew Cut with a Surgical Line
A regular crew cut needs no styling at all. The sides and back are styled in a high bald fade and the top remains short. A surgical line will give the whole hairstyle a beautiful modern touch and you’ll be the lucky one that can come out of the house without fixing your hair.
9. Crew Cut with a Sharp Line-Up
Crew cuts can take numerous shapes, so if you’re thinking about creating a gorgeous frame for your face, this hairstyle will help you. Use a razor to define that straight line contour and opt for a bald fade on the sides.
10. Textured Crew Cut with Sun-Kissed Highlights
Having highlights put on the tips of your hair can help to give the impression of thicker hair with more texture. Choose a color which complements your natural hair color for an unbleached surf look.
11. Side-Parted Crew Cut with a Rolled Quiff
When you go for a crew cut with rectangular glasses, they will help you balance all the angles from your cut.
Get that nice flirty look by styling a simple wave for your top. Also, keep a short stubble beard that you will trim every few days.
12. Spiked Crew Cut with a Widow’s Peak
If you do not have a naturally straight hairline, then a crew cut could be a great choice for your style. Keeping your hair shorter means that your hairline works with the style, rather than against it.
13. Uniform Short Hair With Round Black Glasses
Round glasses are an ideal choice when you’re getting a flat-top crew cut with closely faded sides because they will soften your entire look.
Also, if your hair is quite thin, without volume, you can build some height. Add some hair gel on your hands and apply it to your hair, styling with a comb.
14. Rounded Curly Crew Cut
Crew cut hairstyles for men are ideal for curly hair. By keeping the sides short, you will only need to style the top hair. Use hair gel or jam to make your coils look more defined. One of the perks of this hairdo is that you don’t need to fix the hair every day. Even if you do, it will take only a few minutes.
15. Buzz-Fade Crew Cut with Stubble Blend
Keep the top of your hair longer and thicker while using clippers to cut the hair at the sides. Keep your beard the same length so that your hair and your beard segue effortlessly into one another.
16. Voluminous Crew Cut with a Short Beard
People will just love to run their fingers through this thick and dense longer crew cut. The style works really well when teamed with a beard because it shows both softness and masculinity.
17. Crew Cut with a Beard Fade
A crew cut with a blended beard fade uses a fade for the sides and back. The hair is trimmed very short, and it connects with the beard. The facial hair is shorter on the sides and longer in the chin area.
18. Crew Cut with a Side-Swept Quiff
Opt for a tapered undercut and a lifted top that will make your face seem elongated. Also, go for a medium beard and a mustache that you will groom every day.
If you love a more professional look, you can choose a pair of glasses with thick black frames.
19. Textured Quiff with Tapered Sides
Go for a low fade for the sides and keep the top longer. Use hair gel or hairspray to create those rebel spikes. A wide-tooth comb might come in handy when you want to orient the hair upwards. Also, give the beard a short trim.
20. Spiky Quiff
Get a high-top haircut and lift up the front to a spiky quiff. If you want a neat look, shave your face daily and choose a rounded pair of glasses with thin frames.
21. Messy Spiked Crew Cut
To create disheveled spikes, all you need to do is run your fingers through your hair a few times from each different direction. If your hair is not staying the way you want it to stay, a little bit of hair product may help.
22. Soft-Spiked Crew Cut
Fluffy spikes can look less aggressive than well-defined spikes do. If you have a fluffy style, you will find that people just want to run their hands through it all day!
23. Bristled Crew Cut
If your natural hair is made up of thick wiry strands it may form into natural wiry spikes until it reaches a certain length. Keep your hair short enough for it to do this and you will have effortless spiky hair.
24. Heavyweight Crew Cut for Thick Hair
A crew cut looks amazing with really thick textured hair. All you need to do with this style is wake up and go.
25. Textured Crew Cut with a Side Sweep
If your hair is inclined to curl, but you do not want to have a curly style, cut your hair into a short enough crew cut that it is not able to curl properly.
Crew Cuts for Men Who Wear Glasses
26. Side-Combed Crew Cut
With a short crew cut like this one, you can easily comb it into the perfect style. This will help you to make sure that you don’t have a hair out of place.
27. Hard-Part Tapered Crew Cut
Get a tapered cut for the sides and define the longer top hair with a hard part. It will delimit the short sides from the rest of the hair, and you will certainly obtain a modern crew cut hairstyle that you can arrange however you want.
28. Flat-Top Crew Cut
To create defined spikes you will need to put product in your hair and then run a comb straight upwards through your hair from the roots.
29. Short Brushed-Up Crew Cut
When you have fine hair, you must choose a hairstyle that won’t draw all the attention to your thin strands. Opt for a clean, shaved face and a short crew cut with short sides. Go for the classic look and style the top upwards with pomade.
30. Tapered Crew Cut
Most men adore regular crew cuts with a longer top because they are so low maintenance. All you have to do when styling your hair is lift the top a little bit with hair gel or any other product that you love.
