Have you heard of the crop haircut? It can also be called a French crop, textured crop, crop fade, crop chop, and many more. As all of the names indicate, it’s a men’s short hairstyle with plenty of personality.
The features of a crop are texture, some type of fringe, and faded sides. This cool men’s haircut can be very short, longer, or thicker. The fringe can be a blunt Caesar-type fringe high on the forehead or some combination of textured, spiky, and longer.
