What is a crew cut?
The crew cut has been a barbershop staple for generations because it's simple, neat and flattering. The top is left a bit longer at the front, then shortened toward the crown so it's easy to brush forward or to the side.
We can modernize it with a fade on the sides or keep it traditional with a classic clipper taper.
