Short hairstyles
Name Image Description Bob cut A classic short hairstyle where it is cut above the shoulders in a blunt cut with typically no layers. This style is most common among women. Bouffant A style distinguished by smooth hair that is heightened and given extra fullness over teasing in the fringe area. Bowl cut Named for the shape of the style as much as for a once-common method of achieving it (i.e. using a bowl to style the cut by placing it on the head and trimming the open hair). Moe Howard from The Three Stooges has this hairstyle for his trademark and Henry V of England had a similar hairstyle. This hairstyle was popular in the United States (for straight hair textures) during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Broccoli haircut Named for its visual similarity to a floret of broccoli. It is associated with boys in Generation Z and gained popularity through Internet memes on TikTok. Bunches Another name for pigtails worn braided or unbraided. Butch cut A butch is a type of haircut in which the hair on the top of the head is cut short in every dimension. The top and the upper portion of the back and sides are cut the same length, which generally ranges between 5 millimeters (.25 in) and 20 millimetres (.75 in), following the contour of the head. The hair below the upper portion of the sides and back of the head is tapered short or semi-short with a clipper, in the same manner as a crew cut. Buzz cut A buzz cut, or wiffle cut, whereby the hair is very short and typically cut with manual hair clippers. Caesar cut The Caesar cut is a men's hairstyle that is cut to a regular fade with the bangs or fringe left longer than the top length.

Conk A hairstyle where Afro-textured hair is straightened. This was popular among African-American men from the 1920s to 1960s. Crew cut A crew cut or G.I. haircut is a type of haircut in which the hair on the top of the head is cut relatively short, measured in length from the longest hair that forms a short pomp (pompadour) at the front hairline to the shortest at the back of the crown. The hair on the sides and back of the head is usually tapered short, semi-short or medium. Curtained hair Curtained hair is the term given to the hairstyle featuring a long fringe divided in either a middle parting or a side parting. The hairstyle was popular on adolescents and men from the late 1980s until the mid-1990s. Dido flip A "short choppy shag", popularized by British pop singer Dido. Ducktail A hairstyle predominantly favored by men, though some young female fans of Elvis Presley wore a similar look in his heyday. The style required that the hair were combed back around the sides of the head. The teeth edge of a comb was then used to define a central parting flowing from the crown to the nape at the back of the head, resembling, to many, the rear end of a duck. The hair on the top front of the head was usually that of a pompadour. The sides on back were styled to resemble the folded wings of the duck. Edgar cutA short hairstyle where the front hair has bangs and the sides are tapered. Eton crop A more extensive version of a short crop, with the hair at the back cut close and the front hair left longer for styling. Fauxhawk Also known as the 'fashion punk cut', the hairstyle is an approximation of a mohawk made without shaving or 'buzzing' the hair on the sides of the head, thus allowing an imitation of the look of a real mohawk not having to commit to removing most of one's hair. The name is a portmanteau of faux, the French word for false or fake, and 'mohawk'. Flattop A type of crew cut where the hair on the top of the head is cut as a flat plane giving a levelled 'flat-topped' look. French crop A haircut which is short at the sides and back, and medium length at the crown, worn with a fringe. Frosted tips A men's hairstyle (though women have adopted as well) in which the hair is cut short and formed into short spikes with hair gel or hair spray. The hair is bleached such that the tips of each spike will be light blond, usually in contrast to the wearer's main hair color. Frosted tips were prominent throughout the late 1990s. The style, without the coloring was also common and commonly just called "short and spiky". Hi-top fade The hair is cut short on the sides and is grown long on the top. This style was popular among African-American youth and men in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

The style, named after Madame de Pompadour (1721–1764), mistress of King Louis XV, is for both women and men. Quiff The quiff combines the 1950s pompadour hairstyle, the 1950s flat-top, and, sometimes a mohawk. The hairstyle was an essential in the British 'Teddy Boy' movement, and became popular again in Europe in the early 1980s and 2010s. Recently examples of people wearing quiffs are Alex Turner and Matt Helders of Arctic Monkeys, Tom Meighan of Kasabian, Eugene McGuinness, Bruno Mars, Nick Grimshaw, and One Direction El Siete, or, El 7 Colombiano (The Seven) Originated in Medellín, Colombia as a variation on the 'mullet'. Right angles in the shape of the number "7" are shaved into the sides of the head, while the rest of the hair remains uniform in length. Shape-up Also called a "line-up". Hair that has an even line across the forehead and then turns sharply at a 90-degree angle and blends with the sideburns. It can be worn with almost any other hairstyle.

Two block The two block hairstyle is characterised by a "voluminous crown" of hair on the top of the head, with neatly cropped sides (or undercuts) on the sides and back, resulting in "a handsome layered style". Also known as the Korean bowl cut, the hairstyle is popular with Asian men who have thick straight hair, and has become synonymous with K-pop and South Korean celebrity culture. The hairstyle gets its name from the hair being cut into two distinct "blocks", on the top and bottom. Undercut The undercut is a gendered haircut whereby the top section of hair is held in place whilst the side and back sections are cut, thus making the top longer and the back and sides undercutting. See also bowl cut Waves Short-haired waves, shortened to just waves, is a very common and sought after hairstyle for African-American men that create the appearance of water-like waves in the hair. Wings This style can range from long and hanging below the eyes, to a shorter length. Instead of lying on the wearer's ears, the hair flips up and comes straight out like an airplane wing, hence the name. Popular amongst the skateboarding, surfer and preppy communities. Also known as a 'mod cut'.
