Men's haircut British

The first mention of the Britanka haircut appeared in the 1950s in Great Britain. The main purpose of this style is fashion shows and stage performances. It closely resembles the "Kanadka" haircut. The difference lies only in the length of the bangs, nape, and temples. In the Canadian version, the hair is almost always short, unlike the medium length for the "Britanka."

Classically, the bangs are about 13 cm long, styled to the side or upwards of the head, with the temples and nape kept short, and strands on the crown no longer than 5 cm. The main component is the bangs. Thanks to differences in length and styling shape, there are many variations suitable for almost any face type. Fans of stylish transformations have discovered a new side to this cut.

Variants and features of the Britanka haircut

• Sporty version

A smooth transition from short hair on the nape and temples to long strands of bangs and crown. As with any sporty version, the haircut does not require careful maintenance of volume and shape. The hair lies well and retains the set form.

• Military

Done in several layers of graduation. Simply put, these are torn strands of hair without thinning. This version creates a chaotic look.

• Grunge

A rebellious hairstyle style. Absolute asymmetry and many layers, overlapping each other.

Advice from Lumberjack Barberhouse barbershop

Not everyone can use the "Britanka" as a haircut style. It requires thick and lush hair. People with thin hair are unlikely to fit into the framework of this haircut. Owners of thin faces and large ears are also better off avoiding this style idea. The downsides don’t end there. Any long hair requires care. You will have to spend enough time creating your look. Without special fixing products, the hair won't hold its shape in windy weather or light rain. If you lead an active lifestyle, the "Britanka" is not for you, as dirty strands are noticeable at this length, and frequent washing is not always possible. Maintaining the look requires frequent visits to the barber.

Despite its drawbacks, many men still choose this option. It is favored by the younger generation. This is due to the variety of looks. Hair of this length can be styled differently every day, can be dyed and create a chaotic style. So, if you are looking for a unique look that will emphasize your individuality – choose the Britanka.
