3.0 3 Star

The Scottish-born actor, James McAvoy, shows how to go silver greycefully via this greying half quiff with swept back sides that he rocked at this year’s Met Gala.

MFH says

James McAvoy, shows how to go silver greycefully via this greying half quiff with swept back sides was the perfect classic hairstyle to set off that seriously luxe Dunhill suit.

MFH loves James’ emergence as a silver fox. And special mention must go to the slightly whiter streak in the centre of that artfully tousled half quiff.

Am also loving the natural movement of his hair – which has clearly had a little help from some great products to get that volume and playful texture.

  • For the James McAvoy greying half quiff with swept back sides vibe, you’ll need a bit of length.
  • James’ hair at the top and sides is probably a good 2 or 3 inches.
  • His hairstylist will have layered it throughout to enable lots of movement and texture when he styles it.
  • His hair has been tapered in at the back, though.
  • For the James McAvoy greying half quiff with swept back sides look it’s all about having fun with texture and volume.
  • On damp hair, apply a volumising or thickening product for a bit of oomph first.
  • Then apply a texturising spray like ANFOR Texture Volume Spray which will give your hair a bit of grit without the stickiness of a sea salt spray.
  • As you blow dry the hair, use a round brush to give the hair volume at the top of the head.
  • Wrap the hair around the brush and lift it up at the roots as you dry it.
  • Gently sweep the sides back as you dry it too.
  • When the hair is dry, use a tiny bit of pomade to give the style a little more shape and to flatten any stray hairs at the sides.
  • Finish with a light hold hairspray.
