Barry Keoghan’s Hair: Textured Cut With Fringe
On the Birdย red carpet,ย Barryย Keoghanโs hair was in this choppy tousled cut with a textured fringe.
A simple but striking look, it perfectly complemented his edgy, unconventional style.
Why We Love It:
Barry Keoghanโs hair – along with his clothing choices – is challenging red carpet norms and MFH is here for it.
This tousled, textured cut with that strong, yet choppy fringe is ideal for his straight, thick hair, or even for finer hair types, creating subtle volume and movement without looking overdone.
Bonus: You could even skip a couple of styling days without anyone noticing.
Barry is onto another hairstyle winner: itโs a cool and distinctive haircut, but it wonโt require hours in front of the mirror. Which is totallyย Barryโs vibe. The actor has spoken openly about his preference for a natural, โunpolishedโ appearance, emphasising his preference for authenticity.
In aย recent interview, he also hinted at the fact that although the focus on his red carpet looks can lead to self-consciousness, heโs managing to stay grounded: โThereโs so many pictures out there of you on carpets. You can catch some pictures wrong in the sense of, โI didnโt look good thereโ, so it could be very detrimental to you,โ he told Vanity Fair. โBut I donโt get sucked into that.โ
What To Ask Your Barber:
- The easiest way is to show them this picture of Barryย Keoghanโs hair.
- Tell your barber that youโre aiming for a mid-length taper that blends naturally down the sides and back, avoiding harsh lines or drastic fades. This softer, more gradual taper will help the style stay versatile while still looking sharp and refined.
- For that naturally textured lookย Barry has, ask your barber to keep the length a bit longer on top. They may opt to use texturising scissors or a razor cut technique to take a little weight out of the hair, to give it that choppy textured look and make it easier to style to get that gentle tousle.
- The fringe has also been textured, making it soft and piecey, rather than a severe, blunt cut.
- You can opt for a longer fringe thanย Barryย โ chat through options with your barber.
Get The Look
- After towel-drying, spritz a texture spray or a sea salt spray throughout the hair.
- Then you can apply a tiny amount of lightweight styling cream or pomade that adds hold without weighing hair down.
- Use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to spread the product evenly from roots to ends focusing on the top section.
- Blow dry on medium heat, tousling the hair forward with your fingers as it dries.
- When the hair is dry, add a tiny bit more styling product โ i.e. your pomade โ and use your fingers to run it through the hair, tousling it as you go.
- Use any leftover product on your fingers to make the fringe look more piecey and textured.
- Add a few spritzes of a light, flexible-hold hairspray to keep everything in place without sacrificing movement.
