THE CREW CUT
This classic style will always be on trend. So many clients over lockdown became addicted to this super short and easy to maintain hairstyle. This style can be a simple clipper cut all over with clean lines or a mixture of contemporary barber technique’s like scissor over comb, or clipper over comb. I always wet shave the neck to finish for that ultra-fresh feel. Prepare with mr muk Hair, Beard and Body Wash. Style with mr muk Flexible Hold Grooming Cream to highlight any texture and add a small amount of shine.
SKIN FADE BLENDED INTO SUPER TEXTURED CESEAR CUT
For this look I use a foiling shaver to blend into a number one and cut the top to about 3cms, following with aggressive point cutting through the top and shatter the fringe. Blow dry with cold air forward to maintain natural movement, leaving a touch of moisture in the hair. Style with Filthy muk Styling Paste for a low shine hold and gritty texture.
SHORT TAPERED QUIFF
Quite an easy style to cut and even easier to style. Number 3 sides or clippers over comb for the skilled stylist blended into a 3-inch clubbed cut top and shattered for a textured finished with a taper or square neck, razored. A very clean number 3 over the beard and lined out accordingly, for that super clean look. Cutthroat shave the neck and a hot towel will have your client feel super clean. Prepare with mr muk Thickening and Texturising Shampoo before cutting and styling to provide a strong base and hold for blowdrying. Style with Slick muk Pomade, for that classic wet look. Use mr muk Beard Oil to add shine and condition to the gentleman’s beard.

THE MODERN MULLET
The 80s are coming back with mullets and some with platinum blonde tips proving to be a trend that we are seeing. For the blonde, we would choose from the muk Hybrid Cream Hair Color range and to style and give the mullet that natural, unkept look, I would use mr muk Flexible Hold Grooming Cream.
CEASAR CUT
The high zero/skin fade with short crop ceasar cut on top is an extremely popular trend we are seeing in men’s haircuts. The caesar cut is short back and sides, short texture cut on top pushed forward, with a blunt short fringe. This is a great no fuss, easy to style cut for men. To finish this style, I use the Hard muk Styling Mud for matte texture and a low sheen finish, adding body where needed.
THE CLASSIC SIDE PART
The classic side part scissor cut is a classic and one we see a lot with males who work in the city. It’s sophisticated, tailored and can easily be worn from day to night. Use either mr muk Strong Hold Gritty Finish Paste or the mr
muk Firm Flexbile Hold Medium Gloss
Mud – depending on the texture of the hair. Both give amazing hold, texture and a small amount of shine. Apply evenly through the hair and then comb into place.
