Curious about the 67 haircut taking over social media? We’ve got you covered! In this article, we’ll explain everything you need to know about this viral haircut, including what to ask for and how to achieve the look at home. We’ll also provide a brief overview of the 67 trend so you can understand why it’s so popular.
Exploring the 67 Haircut
There’s not a universal 67 haircut, but it usually refers to a low taper fade with “67” shaved on the side or ice cream hair. Like the nonsensical 67 trend, the 67 haircut is a running joke that people use to be funny and increase their views online. To get the look, show your barber a photo of the haircut you want.
Steps
How to Get the 67 Ice Cream Hair
-
1Grow out your hair and ask for choppy layers. Try to grow your hair to at least 4 inches (10.2 cm) on the top and sides, or until the front hits the bottom of your eyes. You’ll want to have lots of length because your hair will look shorter as you fluff it up to create this hairstyle. Ask your barber to add layers and texture throughout your head.[2]
- Show your barber reference photos of haircuts that have the length, layering, and styling you like. The key to a flattering haircut is to be clear about what you want!

2Apply a texturizing powder to your hair. On dry hair, sprinkle a small amount of texturizing powder at the roots for volume. Then, use your fingertips to work it into your hair and build texture. Keep fluffing your hair until you can’t see any powder.[3]
- Remember, less is more when it comes to texturizing powder, and you don’t want to go overboard. For greater control, rub the powder between your palms first before raking it through your hair.
- If you don’t have texturizing powder, use texturizing spray instead. Just shake the bottle well, spray it evenly on the roots and mid-lengths, then use your hands to activate the product and add texture.
-
3Throw on a hat and fluff up the ends of your hair. Once you’ve achieved the volume and texture you like, wear a baseball cap that allows the ends of your hair to stick out. Use your fingertips to fluff those ends so they stick upward. Then, take off the cap, and rock your new hairstyle![4]
- To help your style last all day, spray volumizing hairspray from at least 6 inches (15.2 cm) away.
