The Edgar haircut is a trendy choice for many young Latino guys. It's a style where the hair is shorter on the sides and back but longer on top, usually styled forward and a bit to the side. It became really popular with Gen Z and Millennials, especially in states like Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California.
It's not exactly clear where the name "Edgar" came from, but some people say it might be linked to a former baseball player, Edgar Martínez. The haircut itself is like a bowl shape, with a straight fringe that hangs down like a mustache on the forehead. The top part is left longer, and sometimes there's a fade or disconnect to add more volume.
People often associate this style with the Mexican Takuache look, and it has similarities to hairstyles worn by the Jumano tribe· It's like a piece of art that needs regular maintenance.
Lots of young Latine folks love this haircut· Some even get creative designs in the back to express themselves more. But not everyone is a fan. Some make fun of it, saying it's for lower-class guys or those who are more sheltered. They might even compare them to the stereotype of a Mexican American "Cholo·" Despite the criticism, its popularity keeps growing, and it seems like it's here to stay.
