Interested in getting a new look or just want to know more about some trendy hairstyles in 2025? You’re at the right place. We have curated a list of 10 of the most in-demand haircuts this year, which includes a mix of stylish, classy, and bold ones that men of every age and fashion sense can sport with confidence.
Which Haircut Suits you the Best? Find out below!
1. Faux Hawk Haircut
Entering 2025, the faux hawk haircut has again come into the trend due to its timeless appeal. For those who don’t know, it lies somewhere along the line between a pompadour and a full-fledged mohawk, having close-trimmed sides with a strip of long hair on top that’s styled inward and jutted loosely forward.
The best thing about a faux hawk haircut is the variation that it offers, which makes it highly suitable for individuals of every age group and fashion sense. The one we recommend includes the hair on the side being proportionate to the spiky top, both seamlessly blending to give you a refined, classy, and trendy look altogether.
2. French Crop Haircut
Don’t have much time to style your hair every day but want something that just looks good? You should try the French crop haircut. It’s simply a short fade on the sides with a fringe top, giving a clean, yet stylish look that doesn’t look over-the-top. However, keep in mind there are two variations to the style, one with a slightly longer crop and the other with a tighter one.
If you are somewhere in your twenties, you can try the one with the longer crop, as it will suit your overall style with a fashionable touch. For men in their late thirties, a tight crop will complement you best as it adds much more maturity to your personality, with a graceful look that suits your age group the best.
3. Buzz Cut
Another no-fuss cut for men who like to stay effortlessly classy, the buzz cut has remained one of the most popular haircuts in 2024 and is expected to maintain its hype as we enter 2025. In buzz cuts, the hair is trimmed very short and close to the scalp, providing a very neat look.
If you have got a well-shaped head for it, a buzz cut with a fine beard is something that just can’t go wrong with anybody. The best thing?
There’s no right age for this one. From aged adults to young sports and everything in between, buzz cuts are for everyone. That’s one of the reasons it has remained popular even among celebrities for many years.
4. Layered Curls
Layered curls are another awesome haircut for men who love to keep their hair long. It’s more of a precision cut that focuses on cutting hair in long layers to create a somewhat shaggy look, with a little bit of movement around the perimeter of the head.
However, since longer hair inherently requires a little more care in styling, this one does too, but much less than what you would expect normally for long hair. All you need to do is just work a little bit of styling cream in damp hair and comb through it, and you’ll look Impeccable.
Layered curls suit every age and work for every hair type.
5. The Classic Taper
It’s been nearly a hundred years since the classic taper came out. The idea behind the haircut was to keep the hair looking neat as it grew out between haircuts. However, this simple idea evolved gradually over time, slowly turning into a fashion statement towards the end of the 20th century.
In a classic taper, the hair is clipper cut short around the sides and back and is blended smoothly with the hair on top, which is cut to about 2 inches in length normally. You can cut it even shorter or longer depending on your preference. Working in a little pomade will also help to style it impeccably.
6. Close Crop
Ever seen George Clooney? He’s been sporting a close crop for possibly more than a decade now, and we must say, it has stood the test of time. He still wears it, and no one could look more elegant! But guess what? If you have got the perfect facial structure and hair for it, there’s no way you won’t rock it.
A close crop is a generally short haircut with the hair cut loosely close to the scalp. When done right, it provides the hair more volume and gives you a stylish, polished, and versatile look that doesn’t require much maintenance. It’s a simple yet impactful style that’s great for both casual and professional settings.
7. Mid-length Crew Cut
You must have seen crew cuts where the hair on the sides and back is trimmed close to the skin while the top is slightly longer. While it’s quite a fashionable haircut, it isn’t quite versatile. The length of hair is too short on the sides and the top, giving off more of a boyish look.
However, if we keep the hair at mid-length where the sides perfectly blend with the top, that’s a different story. By just keeping the hair a few centimeters long, it suddenly becomes a mature-looking haircut that just adds a layer of sophistication to your look.
Besides, it’s very low maintenance. Ask Jake Gyllenhaal. 😉
8. Long Quiff
We all know the legendary status of the quiff haircut—the way it volumizes your hair, the rebellious fashion story that it represents from the post-war era where it was introduced as an answer to the strict haircuts for men.
The long quiff is just a more refined and classy version of the classic quiff, with the haircut a little longer than the original. And believe it or not, it somehow manages to look even better! It allows your hair to fall into its natural and undone state while making it easy to style. You won’t even need a comb.
How long or short should you keep your hair? That’s entirely up to how long you can let your hair go untamed.
9. Temple Fade
The temple fade is another low-effort, yet elegant haircut that has stood the test of time for over two and a half decades now. It’s basically all about keeping the hair on the sides short and shaven while keeping a little bit of length on top.
What’ll make you like it even more is how much less it takes to style a temple fade. If you have a slim face and a nice hairline with a relatively narrow forehead, this could be your go-to choice. Even Brad Pitt rocked the haircut for up to two years before letting his hair grow out long.
10. Short taper
A short taper is a simple haircut where the hair length gradually shortens from top to bottom as we move down the sides and back. It’s more of a casual haircut that suits men of every age and goes well with every personality. Moreover, it’s extremely easy to maintain too, so that’s another perk. 😉
