Olly Murs caused controversy late last year when he pretended to shave his head, but like everyone else, we're glad he didn't. Because Olly Murs' sarcasm is his signature look and we just can't do it. Watch it disappear quickly.
So how do you get an Olly Murs haircut and style your hairstyle?
The classic Olly Murs haircut is a quiff with a natural side parting and less fade on the back and sides.
To get the Olly Murs haircut, you'll need to ask your barber for a quiff haircut with a fade on the back and sides. Leave about 4 inches of fringe length and taper towards the top of your head. Next, divide this into sides. Have your barber add a parting line to your natural parting line. However, the top does not have to be 4 inches. Quiffs can be used in any length and are especially effective when adding texture to shorter styles.
Apply a low fade of 0.5 or 1 to the back and sides. Olly Murs wears this with a natural, soft look, never opting for anything too harsh like a high skin fade.
When styling Olly Murs' haircut, it's important to determine the height of the quiff using a hairdryer. Use a hair dryer on medium speed and heat, and use a round brush to add height to the fringe. Pass your fingers through the back and use a round brush to blow the fringe upwards to create height. You can also use salt spray Use on wet hair for added volume and hold.
To style Olly Murs' haircut, you should use products that add texture and volume to your hair with a natural finish. Please use products like Legal Gentleman Matt Clay Achieve the Olly Murs look.
I also noticed that Olly's hair was often held in place with hairspray (as in the first image). So, if you want to recreate this, get a medium to strong hold hairspray with reduced shine and use it after your styling product. We prefer the look below, which is a little more natural with more movement, but ultimately it comes down to personal preference.
