What is the male haircut where the sides and back are short or close shaved, and the top is a bit longer where they can spike it?

Does anyone know what the hair cut is called? I would like to look it up, and see how to cut it that way.

Answer #1

I think it’s referred to as “short back and sides”. My parents are both hairdressers and whenever they talk about a cut like that that’s what they call it.

Answer #2

we just call that “A Marines Cut…” you got high or low (high for more hair on top & low for less hair on top) Then again everyone calls it something else! Just ask you local hair dresser what they refer to it as. ;) <—(wink)

Answer #3

Well, sounds like you’re talking about a classic cut. Look at my picture and if it looks like that then yes.

Answer #4

Thanks…that’s it. :]

Answer #5

Hair shaved or buzzed short on back and the sides are called “sidewalls” “white sidewalls” or “whitewalls” they got rather popular in the 80’s. Top was longer but not necessarily spiked.

Answer #10

Answer #11

Im a hairstylist and we call that a “crew cut” usually a 2 or 3 clipper on back and sides then blended to finger lengh on top or you could use a no 8 clipper which is 1 inch which is the same as finger lenght” a short cut thats closer to the scalp would be called a “fade”
