The Edgar cut, a cross between a fade and a bowl cut, was originally popular with Mexican teens and Latino men, but baseball player Edgar Martinez started the Edgar haircut craze. His head was shaved in a famous Edgar cut and now it’s everywhere! Check out the best looks below.
This Edgar cut is great for the guy with natural movement in his hair. The hairstyle is tight and neat in the sides, giving the haircut a nice shape with a natural curl up top.

Neat and to the point, this Edgar cut is short, sharp and simple. A nice easy-going hairstyle for guys who like low-maintenance haircuts.
@lomas_thebarber
This look plays with the hair density; with a finer hair texture, this guy’s shaven side looks very light. His barber has had fun with creating a definition in the textures and it gives off an edgy Edgar hairstyle.

This look is perfect for hiding that pesky widow’s peak. Maybe you don’t like your hairline? Or, you have a growth pattern where your hair won’t lay flat on the forehead? This look has a little room for play at the front and the shaved-in line gives it a fun detail.
@cal_newsome
This look works well on a coarser hair types, giving the hair natural texture and flow around the front of the haircut. Paired with a beard, it is looking well-groomed and masculine.
@the.hairmonster
This Edgar cut is high and defined. The high fade looks sharp with the dark hair color and the super sharp defined line detail gives it a fresh vibe. Super easy to style: use a paste to style the length up, and you are ready for anything.
@enzo_m3
This Edgar haircut is the perfect balance of straight lines and scruffy texture. The sides are neat and sharp, the length is messy and textured, while having elements of straight lines in the back. Super cool!
@smilebarber92
This Edgar cut maintains the length around the top, paired with texture. The edges of the sides and back are faded out but very low, giving an extreme feel of lengths in the look. The fade at the back is square but faded out too, giving a trendy twist to the cut.
@juank.barber
Get a high and tight look by asking for buzzed-off sides and sharpened edges. Keeping a well-groomed beard gives off a distinguished vibe, and all the hair length is on top, leaving this look minimal effort to style.
@barber.josh.o.p
This cut has a straight-cut fringe to really emulate the classic Edgar haircut. A bowl-cut vibe makes this Edgar cut a statement. It shows off the strong bold shape, especially being cut on dark hair colors.
@azrilmuhmd
Do you like your haircuts to last a long time? Then this French crop haircut with a bald fade might be the best option for you. Matched with this curly texture up top and an edged-up beard, it looks really sharp.
@ricky_fadez
Check out this cool take on the Edgar haircut. The color is bright and bold, giving a nice contrast to the roots. the mid-fade Edgar gives a nice gradient with an eye-catching straight line to finish the look.
@javi_thebarber_
The curls in this look make it quite a high haircut, elongating the face with the bald fade. This Edgar style would suit men with a round face shape, maximizing balance.
@sami_barbershop
This Edgar style is short, neat and to the point. A simple all round classic with a short back and sides. Still, there is a little funny accent in this short hair style. The barber has shaven in a simplistic yet arty accent in the back to give it a fun twist.
@barberia.massidi
Edgar haircuts tend to be short and sharp in the fringe area, but this Edgar haircut has made a twist on the classics. They have decided to keep the straight line in the fade but leave length at the front.
@monsieur_anthony_paris
The short sides and line details are popular with many men. A sharp hairline and fade design is a great way to give a hair style originality.
@ricky_fadez
The curly bangs are an easy look to achieve if you have a naturally curly texture. Just master some micro plopping and remember to give your hair enough moisture to sport some sexy defined curls.
@edgarcuts_
The styling of this Edgar haircut defies gravity with plenty of spiky texture and a matt styling paste. Keep the sides short and faded, and this Edgar’s good to go.
@ali_bar.ber
This look with longer bangs suits guys with a hairline that won’t sit flat or a widow’s peak. The gradient gives the widow’s peak Edgar cut the classic edge.
@xbigwesx
This classic fade effect looks cool paired with the blonde hue that is giving a definition between the two lengths. This could easily be a platinum hair look too if you use a little silver shampoo.
@cal_newsome
This high fade Edgar with weight in the back and a slit shaved through the eyebrow into the haircut has some serious alternative vibes. A sure way to get noticed.
@azrilmuhmd
Give your classic Edgar haircut a twist by adding a creative touch with line work. Short haircuts are easily shown off with a little artistry.
@ricky_fadez
Keep this classic alive by going short and sharp. Edgar cuts don’t always have to be a bowl cut and the bangs, but can be straightened out to achieve this look.
@tannermorningstar
The straight lines in this Edgar hairstyle make it quite similar to the Caesar cut. Check out this strong blonde and dark look for inspo!
@jayroberts_
Check out the skill that went into this fade! The pattern in the Edgar haircut gives a unique element, while the spiky top allows for versatility.
@tailorfade
Incorporate contrast into your Edgar styles and shave a line where the fade gradient sits. This Edgar haircut is a pretty neat example.
@zisis_a
Textured Edgar haircuts are so cool! Here is how to bring out the best of the bowl cut and achieve movement in the haircut.
@tiiinchooo__
This Edgar haircut has a high undercut fading into his beard and a texturized top for fun styling. Super balanced and a good all-round classic Edgar.
@yakuzabarber
A low fade can look cool at the back while working higher on the sides. This look is a classic Edgar created with a curly hair type.
@cjdabarber_
This Edgar cut is another classic style the high fade. Wavy Edgar works with most Edgar haircuts, and this one is perfectly paired with a beard.
