This hairstyle allows you to play with the sides. You can opt to wear them totally full, closely clipped, or faded, as seen here. Keep the top softly spiked for more formal occasions, or go all in with the texture for something rougher and more off-duty.
The quiff haircut combines elements of the pompadour, the flat-top, and even the Mohawk. One of the great things about this hairstyle is that it has the ability to look really neat and polished or have that messy bedhead look that is incredibly popular right now. If you are looking to switch up your regular haircut and want to try something classy and a bit funky, take a look and see which ones can make the next cut you want!

Short, spiky, and expertly coiffed, this haircut combines the best of both worlds, as it is somehow messy and sleek all at once. A neat taper fade will offset the energetically upswept top.
A pompadour has a distinct throwback feel, and pairing it with a quiff modernizes the shape. This one features a high pompadour that is given a lift at the front and carefully combed back. A hard side part brings contrast and gives the style more direction.
@nastybarbers
Many modern versions of this hairstyle look like this one. Here, the top is longer and extensively spiked, so it largely resembles the punk rock look of the Mohawk. If you want more contrast, go for a skin fade and a defined line-up.

This option is worn short and artfully messy. While the short length keeps this haircut understated, the disheveled top offers a bit of edge. It’s a great everyday alternative with natural texture.

This exaggerated quiff pulls from both rockabilly and punk, marrying towering height with rough edges. It’s a style that plays with contrast – tight on the sides, loud up top, and unapologetically shaped.
@virogas
This haircut seems so effortless because of the longer length and the way it is combed. The larger sections of hair are disconnected, lifted, and swept slightly back. The beard and moustache make the look even more cohesive.
@virogas
To transition from a shorter haircut to a quiff haircut, you will first need to grow out the top section of your hair. You can always keep it neat and professional-looking with a styling cream or pomade. Use a comb for a more defined sweep or your fingers for a looser finish.

By simply incorporating a little texture into your hairdo, you can make it look thicker and better-looking. Whether your hair is straight or curly, a dab of styling product is going to bring out its texture and make it more manageable. If you also need volume, find your ideal volumizing product.
@barber_djirlauw
Clean at the sides and dramatic up top, this hairstyle has a wave-like lift that holds the shape so well. The sides are closely clipped, and the front has a bit of a messy look to it. Overall, it looks sculptural, but not overly rigid.
@jvm_collections
Looking as though it got caught in the perfect windstorm, the hairdo in this photo seems effortlessly chic. To build such sky-high volume, don’t skip a pre-styler, such as a volumizing mousse or spray. Apply it to damp hair before blow-drying to lift the roots.
@londonschoolofbarbering
An expertly placed side part is always guaranteed to make your hairstyle look its best. Here, the side part isn’t that defined, but you can still tell where it separates the top and the side sections.
@duplexbarberia
A little more on the conservative side, haircuts like this one are ideal for the office, school, or more formal occasions. Opt for a smooth taper fade that melts into the top without harsh lines or disconnection.
@brutusthebarber
If the extreme look is what you’re going for, then this one is right up your alley. The front is long and flipped up, which gives it a somewhat deconstructed pompadour appearance. A stylish temple fade and a distinct side part give it even more definition.
@nastybarbers
Dense hair might greatly benefit from texturizing and skillful layering. As seen in this image, thick hair is textured throughout to achieve the optimal silhouette and the perfect lines of the cut.
@thebarberpost
Not every hairstyle has to stand out – some look just as good when they’re quite discreet but with a certain twist. This one doesn’t feature any outrageous styling apart from the cool upswept fringe, but it does look neat and polished.
@nastybarbers
Channel your inner rock star with a hint of rockabilly by trying out this Mohawk-style silhouette. It features the perfect amount of height above the forehead and on the crown, and low sides with a drop fade.
@iranthebarber
Choppiness breaks up the uniformity of hair and creates separation that is a hallmark of modern hairstyles. Your hair becomes easier to manipulate and lifts more responsively when blow-dried. Opt for choppy layers if you prefer a more natural, slightly tousled look.
@alan_beak
When worn rather short, the quiff hairdo has a surprisingly conservative look, just like the version in this photo. Here, you have expertly faded sides that surround the short, stiff hair up top.
@doublecrownbarber
Embracing a rough, off-kilter texture with your hairstyle is one of the oldest ways to give a haircut a new, edgy interpretation. You can also create a wet finish by using hair gel or any other texturizing product that suits your hair type best.
@javi_thebarber_
The quiff haircut continues to be one of the most versatile modern cuts, which combines the features of the classic styles into something more adaptable. Its form is open to different interpretations, be it loose, high, or sharply defined; still, there is a place for you to customize it.
