Textured Off Side Cut from American Crew

This style from American Crew’s International All-Star, Nevena Rothe, has a very party boy meets tough guy feel. Classic in its foundation as an undercut, the front of the hair is slicked up to create a rough, rebel look, think West Side Story or Danny Zuko from Grease. This cut is perfect for men who want to be noticed and who want a fun, hip look that is easy to style.
