Share : BarbBros BarbBros BarbBros

When it comes to timeless, professional, and stylish haircuts for men, the Ivy League cut stands out as a true classic. Also known as the Princeton or Harvard Clip, this hairstyle blends the clean-cut structure of a crew cut with just enough length on top for versatile styling.

At BarbBros Gents Salon in Dubailand, we specialize in modern men’s cuts that are both polished and trendy—making the Ivy League cut a perfect choice for gentlemen who want to look sharp at work and stylish off-duty.


What Is an Ivy League Cut?

The Ivy League haircut is essentially a longer version of the crew cut. It features:

Tapered or faded sides

Extra length on top (especially at the front)

A defined or soft side part

The flexibility to be styled neatly or worn with texture

This cut offers the perfect balance between refinement and casual cool, making it ideal for men who want an easy-to-maintain yet elevated look.


Why Choose an Ivy League Cut?

Here’s why the Ivy League cut continues to be one of the most requested styles at BarbBros:

• Sophisticated & Clean

Perfect for business meetings, interviews, or formal events. It gives off a sharp, intellectual vibe that never goes out of style.

• Flexible Styling

Whether you want to comb it to the side, add some volume with a pompadour twist, or just wear it naturally tousled—this cut adapts to your style.

• Great for Most Face Shapes

Especially flattering on oval, square, and heart-shaped faces, this cut enhances the natural structure of your jawline and cheekbones.
