Modern Mod Haircut: How to Customize With a Razor
Men’s Modern Mod Haircut: Step-By-Step Razor Technique
The modern mod haircut is all about balancing strong structure with soft, wearable movement—and in this tutorial, Sport Clips Area Coach and Onboarding Specialist Mary-Jean Carrino (@get.faded_queen) breaks down exactly how to achieve it.
In this video, you will learn how to:
- Maintain strong perimeter weight while removing internal bulk
- Use square layering and spatial overdirection for structure and movement
- Blend seamlessly using pie-shaped sections
- Customize the final look with razor work for added texture and a modern finish
Focusing on precision razor work and intentional sectioning, this technique maintains a solid perimeter while creating a modern, flexible shape your clients can easily wear.
