Haircut trends are changing day by day. Keeping up with them, especially in a stylish city like Vancouver, is obviously a challenging task.
How do you pick the right hairstyle that matches the current trends and your face shape? Let’s check it out.
1. High Skin Fade Crew Cut
It is a low-maintenance cut that combines a traditional crew cut with a high skin fade. The sides are shaved to the skin to blend gradually into the slightly longer top. The top itself is short but textured for a hint of depth without any additional styling. It's a top choice for busy professionals who need a clean look and don’t have much time for styling.
2. The Textured Crop
The chopped crop continues to be a popular choice for 2025. It has a short and straight length on top with a choppy texture. This provides a contemporary appearance. A mid or low fade on the sides completes this look and makes it much more fashionable.
3. The Classic Buzz Cut with Tapered Sides
Buzzcut is still a classic for men who want an effortless look. To make it modern, you just need to taper the sides a bit rather than having a full buzz everywhere. This makes the haircut have some shape and look sharp. And the best part is that buzz cuts remain very easy to style.
4. The Short Pompadour Fade
The short pompadour fade is an interesting mix of retro and trendy. It has a cleanly faded back and sides that flow into a full, combed-back top. A light pomade product can shape the hair without giving it a rigid appearance. This look best suits men with thicker hair who desire a clean yet handleable appearance.
5. The French Crop with Skin Fade
The French crop is a daring cut that can fit nearly any face shape. It has a straight fringe in the front and a textured top. The sides have a skin fade that provides contrast to make the fringe even more noticeable. Luckily, it is a fashionable yet low-maintenance choice.
6. The Short Spiky Fade
It’s the modern version of old-school spike cuts. Here, the top hair remains short and spiky. Light layering may also be done for definition. It works perfectly for any type of fade. You can style it up with a small amount of matte wax or clay to add texture.
7. The Ivy League Cut
The Ivy League cut is a refined version of the crew cut. It leaves the top long enough to be side-parted with the sides cut down neatly. The style looks better if paired with a subtle taper on the sides rather than a fade for a smoother appearance. Want a short and professional-looking appearance? Go for it.
8. The Burst Fade Mohawk
The burst fade mohawk is a great choice for those willing to take small risks. The sides are faded in a circular motion around the ears to create a ‘burst’ effect. The top is left longer and styled up, but not too outrageous. It works better for curly or thick hair.
9. The Shadow Fade with Short Waves
A shadow fade is a hairstyle that graduates naturally from short to shorter. The top is short but sufficiently long enough that natural waves are displayed. It is an ultra-clean choice that won't need extensive styling—just a small dollop of curl cream is enough.
10. The Hard Part Comb Over
It is a sharp and angled cut where contrast matters a lot. Sides receive a high or mid fade, with the top remaining slightly longer. A hard part (a shaved-in line) gives the parting an added level of definition. It's a wonderful cut to attain a businessman's look. A bit of pomade can keep the combed look in place.
