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.

  1. It refers to either a low taper fade with 67 shaved on the side or ice cream hair. There’s not a universal “67 haircut,” and it’s a running joke online that any haircut can be a 67 haircut. That said, the most viewed 67 haircut videos show a low taper fade with a “67” shaved on the side of the head, or the trendy ice cream hairstyle.

How to Get the 67 Low Taper Fade

  1. Ask for a low taper fade with 6-7 shaved on the sides. When you sit in the barber’s chair, ask for a low fade at the nape of your neck, with a gradual taper and volume at the top. Usually, the shortest hair in a low taper fade is about 0.25 in (0.64 cm) long, so request the #2 clippers to get this length. Then, ask your barber to shave the number 67 on the side of your hair for a truly fun, unique, and brain-rotted look![1]
    • Keep in mind that you can transform any haircut into the 67 haircut by shaving the numbers into your head. Feel free to try it out with any type of fade, such as temple fade or shadow fade!

  1. 1
    Grow 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!
  2. 2
    Apply 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.
  3. 3
    Throw 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.

Understanding the 67 Trend

  1. The term “67” refers to a nonsensical TikTok trend. Generally, TikTok users include “67” in videos when they feel like making a reference or joke. You might see “67” in a wide variety of content—and in real life, people sometimes say “67” just to be funny. The term “67” itself doesn’t mean anything, and most “67” TikTok videos include lip dubs and references to test scores, height, and other jokes.[5]
    • The “67” TikTok trend comes from rapper Skrilla’s song “Doot Doot (6 7).” The song is a narrative of street life and violence, but the term is nonsensical on TikTok.
