Top Haircut Trends in Philly for 2025: What’s Hot at LB Cuts

The new year is here — and with it comes fresh styles, sharper fades, and bold looks taking over Philly’s barbershop scene. At LB Cuts, we don’t just follow trends — we set them. Whether you’re looking to refresh your look or try something totally new, we’ve got you covered with the most in-demand styles for 2025.

Here’s what’s making waves in the barber chairs this year:

✂️ 1. Textured Fades

One of the most requested cuts in our shop right now, the textured fade combines sharp tapering with natural top volume. Whether you’re rocking curls, waves, or straight hair, this look adds definition without the stiffness. It's clean, cool, and easy to maintain.

🔥 Philly Tip: Ask for a mid-skin fade with a matte finish pomade — perfect for our city’s humid summers.

🌀 2. Modern Mullets

Believe it or not, the mullet is making a major comeback — and it’s not your uncle’s 1980s version. The modern mullet features a clean fade on the sides, soft blending, and a longer back that’s more stylish than shocking.

Our stylist Kimberly specializes in edgy mullets that look runway-ready but still Philly-tough.

🧼 3. Buzz Cut with Beard Fade

Sometimes simplicity wins. The buzz + beard combo is low maintenance but packs serious punch. With the right fade and beard sculpting, this look is masculine, sharp, and fits all face shapes.

Want that crisp beard line? We’ve got the straight razors ready.

🧔 4. Natural Afro & Taper Fade

Embracing natural texture is more than a trend — it’s a movement. The Afro with a clean taper lets your natural curl pattern shine while keeping the sides and neckline tight. Pair it with a lineup for added definition.

Pro tip: We use hydrating treatments to keep curls healthy and defined year-round.

🔥 5. Creative Hair Designs

From subtle parts to full-on artwork, hair designs continue to grow in popularity — especially among our younger clients and athletes. Whether it’s a sharp part, a lightning bolt, or a logo design, LB Cuts can make it happen.

Design work is all about precision, and our team has the skills to make your vision reality.

💇‍♂️ 6. Slick Pompadours & Retro Combovers

Vintage is in — but make it modern. Styles like the pompadour, slick back, and combover fade offer a polished, professional look with tons of personality. Our barber Sasha is a master at blending old-school class with modern flair.

Pair it with a skin fade and a clean part for a bold twist on a classic.
