17 Korean Haircut Styles Trending in 2024
Read on to get inspired by Korean haircut styles.
1. K-Pop Idol Long Perm
Who doesn’t love a long perm on your favorite idol’s hair? We love this look, especially when the haircut has uneven layers. Use a pomade to style the hair to create definition. Try Dove Men + Care Polishing Pomade to add hold and shine without the crunchy feel.
2. Korean Middle Part
Another great Korean style for mid-length hair is the middle part. This look is perfect if you have symmetrical facial features and want to enhance them. You can style it to look super slick, with some strands tucked away behind your ears or leave it loose for a carefree, cool feel.
3. Blonde Chin-length Haircut
Spice up your chin-length haircut with a pop of color, in this case, platinum blonde. Many K-pop idols love this shade, so this might be your sign to try it out. If you need a hand getting those perfect waves, try AXE Urban Messy Look: Flexible Paste to instantly boost your texture and nail the styling.
4. Wolf Cut
Are you always on the lookout for the latest trendy haircut? Then you should try the wolf cut. This 90s-inspired lovechild of the shag and mullet cuts has been made popular by K-pop stars and it’s the perfect mix of edgy and ultra cool.
5. Korean Mullet
Edgy and rebellious, the Korean mullet haircut is a super stylish pick. You can experiment with the longer strands at the top and give them extra volume or keep them straight for a more clean look.
6. Undercut Korean Haircut
Since Asian hair is often naturally straight and thick, an undercut or French crop is a great option. The contrast between the shaved and thick hair on the top is a great look for this hair type. Use a comb to sweep the hair on top away from your face and to add some height to your style.
7. Side-Swept Layered Hair
A side-swept style with layers is a great alternative for those who are looking for texture and volume. This Korean haircut and an undercut haircut look great on most hair types and textures. Use a teasing comb to add some volume at the roots to recreate this style!
8. Spiked Back Brushed
For the boys who love drama, there’s nothing more eye-catching than brushed-back hair with spiky ends. Use a gel to recreate this style. Try AXE Spiked-Up Look: Extreme Hold Gel and get the dramatic effect you want.
9. Caesar Cut with Curtain Bangs
Another classic haircut among K-Pop idols is this Caesar haircut with curtain bangs. Some prefer closing the ends of the curtains to make a heart shape. This style has become iconic in the Korean pop industry.
10. Tousled Korean Bangs
Another haircut that is very popular for good reason is this tousled bangs hairstyle. If you don’t have a perm on your bangs, you can create the tousled look using wax, gel, or pomade.
11. Faded Comb-Over
The comb-over is a haircut that suits everyone, and the style has many variations. Create a side part, brush your hair to one side, and use wax to keep the style in place. Choose a wax with a strong hold to achieve the same effect the model has here.
12. Fringe Bangs
When it comes to bangs hairstyles, this Korean haircut is the perfect example of what to do. Style it with simple wax to add hold and definition.
13. Korean Two-Block Haircut
The classic Korean haircut loved by both actors and idols is the two-block haircut. This versatile haircut looks good on most men and hair types so you can confidently choose it!
14. Edgar Korean Haircut
The Edgar is the most popular haircut of the moment, and this mini version is refreshing. This haircut looks great on men with straight and thick hair.
15. Korean Slick Back
This look is ideal if you want a polished, sleek appearance. Nail this style by working some Dove Men + Care Well Defined Taming Gel through your strands, for maximum hold and added shine.
16. Man Ponytail
If you’re a lover of longer lengths, why not style your tresses in a ponytail? This hairstyle will make you look put together, while the wavy finish is an elegant touch that takes you from work to the afterhours.
17. Korean Bowl Cut
One of the most popular Korean haircuts is the bowl cut. Both youthful and cool, give this cut a go if you have soft, straight hair and are looking for a classic yet modern appearance.
