2026 trending haircuts for men

Heading into 2026, my focus is making sure Idaho doesn’t get left behind. Keeping its own identity, its own vibe, while still showing up strong with the most modern and tasteful men’s hair trends, what is trendy and coming out right now. That includes Boise and all treasure valley.

With that said, As an Idaho Barber, here are three men’s hairstyles I see really leading the way in 2026:

1) Brush Back (sometimes Slick Back) | M O V E M E N T. Strong backward flow with intentional accent lines and subtle texture. The back shape often enhances the client’s jawline. It says I’m current, slightly different, and still professional.
Hair product: @rascals__co styling cream ( HERE ) for a wetter look, or @upliftprovisionsco styling compound ( HERE ) applied wet for a less shiny but more defined finish. Click ( HERE ) to see post on instagram.

2) The Mod Cut | Starting with F R A M I N G. This cut is all about framing the face and using layers to highlight the client’s ideal face shape, while letting texture live in more non-traditional ways. Bold, but still flattering.
Hair product: @upliftprovisionsco styling gel (HERE), or sea salt spray (HERE) applied wet and finished with a diffuser. definitely a trending hairstyle

3) Warrior Cut | Starting with T E X T U R E. This cut shows light volume, a messy edge, but still leaves room for clean lines—or a more natural, lived-in look. Says I’m clean, professional, but not boring. Maybe Brad Pitt energy.
Product to use: @upliftprovisionsco texture dust (HERE), and for extra definition add any clay or Uplift’s styling compound. definitely a edgy hairstyle that’s trending right now.

You really can’t go wrong with any of these. They’re not the only options out there, but these are the ones I see truly making waves in 2026.
