Korean Men's Haircuts in 10 Popular Styles
From the two-block to comma hair, these are the men's cuts you will see across Seoul — what each looks like, who it suits and what to ask for in the salon.
The most popular Korean men's haircuts are the two-block, comma hair, shadow perm cut, textured crop, curtain or middle part, ivy league, buzz, wolf cut, soft pompadour and Korean-style fade. Most rely on a longer, softer top with tidy sides. At JUNO HAIR Myeongdong Branch 4, a men's cut starts at ₩45,000 and men's perms from ₩160,000.
Soft tops, clean sides, natural fringe
Korean men's styles favor a natural, slightly youthful look: a fuller top, a fringe that sits on or curves away from the forehead, and sides kept close without harsh lines. Texture often comes from a light perm rather than heavy wax.

Two-Block Cut
Short, clipped sides and back under a longer top layer. Versatile and the base for many Korean styles; suits thick, straight hair.
from ₩45,000Comma Hair
The fringe curls inward at one side like a comma. Usually needs a light perm or careful styling; flattering on oval and long faces.
from ₩45,000Shadow Perm Cut
A medium-length cut with soft, barely-there texture from a shadow perm, giving volume that looks natural.
from ₩160,000Textured Crop
A short top with choppy texture and a straight or slightly broken fringe. Low maintenance and good for warm weather.
from ₩45,000Curtain / Middle Part
A center or slightly off-center part with the fringe falling to both sides. Works best with medium length and some wave.
from ₩45,000Ivy League
Short sides with a top long enough for a neat side part. Clean, professional and easy to style.
from ₩45,000Buzz Cut
Clipped evenly short all over. Best for strong head shapes and anyone wanting zero styling.
from ₩45,000Wolf Cut
Shaggy layers on top with length left at the nape. Bold and textured; suits wavy or permed hair.
from ₩45,000Soft Pompadour
The front is lifted and swept back with gentle volume rather than a high, slick shape.
from ₩45,000Korean Fade
A gradual taper at the sides blended softly into a longer top, cleaner than a two-block but less sharp than a skin fade.

How to choose your Korean men's cut
Check your hair type
Thick, straight hair suits two-block and down perms; fine hair often looks fuller with a textured crop or shadow perm.
Consider your forehead
Comma hair and curtain parts open the forehead; crops and fringes cover it.
Be honest about styling time
Pick a buzz, crop or ivy league if you want minimal effort each morning.
Bring a photo
A reference photo is the fastest way to align with your designer.
Plan maintenance
Most Korean men's cuts need a tidy-up every 4–6 weeks.

Korean men's haircuts — common questions
What is the most popular Korean men's haircut?

A two-block keeps the top layer long enough to fall over the shorter sides, so the transition looks softer than a typical disconnected undercut.
Do I need a perm for comma hair?
Not always, but a light perm makes comma hair much easier to hold; at JUNO HAIR Myeongdong men's perms start at ₩160,000.
