How to Style a Quiff: The Modern Classic

The quiff is essentially an evolved pompadour — softer, more modern, and works across a wider range of hair types. In this video, I show you how the right cut sets up the style, and then walk through my full styling routine from towel-dry to finished look.

For the cut, you want length through the top with shorter sides for contrast. When styling, rough dry with your fingers first, then use a round brush to add direction and volume through the front. Finish with a medium-hold paste or clay — never gel for this look.
