Most LA guys don't want a routine. They want a cut that works in the morning, in the gym, and after a flight. Here are the five we recommend most often for low-maintenance clients.
1. The classic crop
Short, textured, low fuss. Two minutes with your fingers and you're done. Holds shape for 5 weeks.
2. The taper buzz
A 2 or 3 guard buzz with a clean taper around the ears and neckline. The lowest-effort cut on the menu and one of the sharpest.
3. The soft side part
Slightly longer top, taper sides. Looks intentional with no product if the cut is right.
4. The grown-out crop
A textured crop you let grow out for three to four weeks before reshaping. The middle phase still looks tailored.
5. The short flow
Two-and-a-half inches on top, swept back. Holds its shape with one product, applied once.
