How To Get Ryan Gosling’s Haircut

If you are looking for how to get Ryan Gosling’s haircut, then you’ll find everything you need in our complete guide to this Hollywood hairstyle. 

Our expert barbers will tell you how to ask your barber for Ryan Gosling’s haircut, how to style your hair like Ryan Gosling’s, and show you how to cut your own hair like Ryan Gosling.

Ryan Gosling’s Hair Cut & Style

Ryan Gosling, star of hit films Drive, The Notebook, La La Land, and Stupid Crazy Love, has made the best dressed and sexist movie stars list numerous times.

He is known for his masculine style and handsome hairstyle. His signature cut, which is in a lot of his films and red carpet appearances, is short back and sides with a point cut on top.

Thankfully, with a good barber, like our team at Pall Mall Barbers, you can easily achieve this Hollywood haircut.

 

Who Would Suit This Hairstyle?

This haircut is ideal for anyone with a cowlick at the front of their hair but works with most hair types. Our barbers recommend this style for mid to fine-straight hair.

One of the main advantages of this haircut is that you can look smart for work by brushing your hair through with a small round brush. Add a spritz of styling spray on it to keep your style looking fresh all day.

Or you can go for a more casual look by using a styling product, like Flexible Shine, through the mid-lengths and ends when blow-dried.

 

How To Ask Your Barber For A Ryan Gosling Haircut

First things first, you’ll need to book into your local barbers for a wash and cut. You might need to book in for a restyle depending on your length of hair, but your barber will be able to help guide to.

Your barber will probably start by scissor-cutting the back and sides of your hair to achieve Ryan Gosling’s famous haircut. That’s because scissor cutting gives a softer finish than the clippers.

Then leave the fringe (bang) slightly longer and have an even scissor cut throughout the top section of the hair. The haircut will then be connected and lined out.

Depending on your hairline, it may be beneficial to have some clipper-over comb around the nape of the neck.
