The mod haircut for men: How to achieve the look
The Gladiator of our day revitalizes a new haircut for the second time.
Paul Mescal in Gladiator II

Every so often, movies or TV influence what men do with their hair. In the 2000s, we saw a revamping of the mohawk when it seemed every celebrity and every movie featured the faux hawk. Then we loved Cillian Murphy and Brad Pitt for bringing back the undercut, and all of us shaved the sides and back of our heads while keeping the top long. Enter Stranger Things, and the 80s nostalgia came roaring back to bring us the return of the formerly mocked, newly rocked, mullet.

But there is a new revisit on the horizon in 2025, and you can largely thank Paul Mescal's turn in Gladiator II. He rocked a mod haircut better than anyone could have expected, and now we are all booking appointments with our stylists to jump on board with the hair trend that began at the end of 2024 and will scream into 2025.
