What is a edgar cut?
A blunt straight fringe paired with a dense, highly textured top. Your barber can soften or sharpen the shape and side treatment to match your hair, face and preferred maintenance level.
Who does a edgar cut suit?
This cut is a useful option for thick hair, bold silhouettes, younger styles. It works especially well with straight, wavy, thick hair, though an experienced barber can adapt the shape for most textures.

How to ask your barber
Show the preview, then use Skin to #2 as a starting point for the sides. Keep approximately 2 to 3 inches on top, finished with blunt fringe with texture and a natural taper neckline. Treat these notes as a conversation starter, not a rigid blueprint.
Maintenance and styling
Refresh every 2–3 weeks for the cleanest blend. Between cuts, use a small amount of suitable styling product and keep the top’s intended direction rather than flattening its texture.
