Side Parted Quiff

One of the best ways to style your quiff is to go for a side part along with it. A lot of people do not go for this because the volume of the quiff itself is distributed unequally on either side of the parting.

But we would argue that it is the unequal distribution that affords this hairstyle its effortless, messy charm. See, the quiff is intrinsically a very structured hairstyle. It may not be as stiff as a pompadour, but it is still undeniably structured.

Adding a hint of an asymmetry to it might be a really good step, especially if you are the kind of person who wants to introduce a variation to the look without changing it altogether.

To get the side parting right, first separate your hair with your fingertips, and then go in with a hairbrush. Make sure the side of the quiff with the lesser volume isn’t matted down too much.

Quiff Hairstyle With Scissor Fade Sides

You can also venture a scissor fade for your quiff. A scissor fade, which is also referred to as a scissor cut fade, involves tapering the hair with using scissors instead of clippers.

Unlike clipper fades, which use guards to create a more stark transition between the separate lengths of your hair, scissor fades are typically softer and more blended.

This means that the transition will be seamless. If you are going for this kind of quiff, we would recommend getting some conditioning treatment for your hair first.

This will make your stylist’s job much easier, and you would find that the quiff holds better when the hair is soft but grease-free.

You can style the quiff itself with pomade to give it a good hold.

Thick Hair Textured Quiff 

A textured quiff works best with a few highlights, because it allows for the light to bounce off the very texture of your hair, making it look very glossy and elegant.

This is one of the most popular quiff hairstyles out there, and it is widely popular with those who like to keep their a little messy.

However, this hairstyle can get tangled very easily, so you would need some practice when it comes to detangling it without taking away from the texture of your hair itself.

One of the best ways to make sure that your hair remains detangled in this case is to principally style with your fingertips.

You will have to experiment with different amounts of product to find the right balance of hold and texture for your hair type. 

Also, consider investing a volumizing shampoo and conditioner to enhance natural thickness and texture.

Quiff With Fade

This is one of the best ways to style your quiff if you want to incorporate more edge into your hairstyle. This balances the volume of your hair on the top with a clean, tapered finish on the sides and back.

The first step to getting this right is consulting your stylist about the length of the fade itself. If you want the quiff to not look as pronounced, make sure that you go for a low fade.

The thing with fades is that they can make the hairstyle at the centre look more prominent than they are, especially if you are going for a high fade or a skin fade. If you want to avoid that, go for a mid-fade like the one here, so that fade itself is still visible.

You will have to style you quiff with a really lightweight product if you want it to look as seamlessly styled as the one here.

Textured Quiff Hairstyle With Short Sides

You can also take your texture quiff and add shorter sides to it. Most people opt for a fade, but shorter sides require lesser maintenance compared to fades, which can be a huge advantage.

Fades often require regular trips to the stylist to maintain the sharp transition. Shorter sides still give you a gradient, but they are not as prominent. Also, depending on your hair texture and thickness, shorter sides can help give a cleaner, more professional look that complements the volume and texture of the quiff.

Plus, you can ease out the scalp treatments this way. Shorter sides allow for more versatility in styling. They can easily blend into various other hairstyles, and if they look for a casual look, whereas fades often define the hairstyle more distinctly.

You can give your quiff more texture by adding some gentle highlights to. But if you want the look to be more professional, we would advise staying clear of starkly contrasting colours.

Curly Quiff Hairstyle

For those of you who have curly hair, the quiff might be much easier to achieve than what you have been led to believe. Most people are conditioned to treat curly hair as inherently unmanageable, which can be the case if you do not learn to define and treat your curls.

But with a quiff hairstyle, you will discover that your curls take to it quite naturally. This is because both the quiff hairstyle and your curls function on their volume, so you will discover that there is greater harmony between.

You can either use your fingers or a comb to lift certain sections of your hair upwards, and gently set them slightly back to form the quiff shape.

When styling this, let your natural curls shape the quiff. If you try to use too much product you will find that you can end up flattening them out.

Textured Quiff

The textured quiff has been mentioned quite a few times in this list, so it goes without saying that it is one of your favourites – both because of how well it can gel with other forms of styling, and how it can help you embrace the natural texture of your hair.

One of the easy hacks to get your quiff quickly is to go in with a round brush at the bottom of your hair to give it that volume across the lengths. This style is fairly versatile, and it works well with various hair types, including straight, wavy, or curly hair.

If you have straight hair, like in the look here, you will need to add some product to give the quiff its hold.

To enhance the textured look, you can also use your fingers to tousle and separate the hair strands. This will create a naturally messy appearance adding even more volume.

Sweep Back Quiff

Quiff hairstyles look really great even when they are swept back. See what we meant when we spoke about the versatility of the quiff? Sweeping your quiff backwards will also make it more manageable and functional.

All you need to do here is to learn how to sweep your hair back without weighing it down – because then the volume of the quiff, which is the best thing about it, will be compromised.

To make sure that that does not happen, start with a small amount of pomade or wax, and subsequently add more as needed to achieve the desired hold and texture.

Make sure that you do not put too much product at the bottom. Also, you do not want the quiff to look messy, so try and control the fly-aways.

Long Hair Quiff

Long hair quiffs can be pretty easy to style once you learn to manage the ends of your hair. With long hair quiffs, as you can notice here, the volume of the hair will be concentrated at the centre of its length, keeping both the root and the edge of the hair closer to your scalp.

You can use a round brush to lift the hair upwards and back, while directing the sides slightly back as well.

This creates a bounce in your hair. One really great advantage of this, is that if you add highlights of a slightly lighter colour like in the case of the hairstyle here, you will find that the light bounces off of your hair making it appear even more glossy.

With this hairstyle, try and concentrate the product at only the ends of your hair to keep them towards your scalp. This is a really classy hairstyle, so you can style it in both professional and casual settings.

Modern Quiff 

A modern quiff like this one distributes the volume around the scalp, while keeping the sides edgy and minimalistic with a very low fade. The best thing about this particular kind of quiff is that it can give your face more symmetry because of the equal distribution of the volume.

Bear in mind, modern quiffs can vary in height, so you can go ahead and adjust the volume and lift according to your preference and face shape.

You can also add facial hair to this look, but make sure you do not go overboard with the beard because this is the kind of hairstyle that draws a lot of attention by itself.

If you have naturally wavy hair, make sure that you try and incorporate that into the structure of your quiff, so that the texture of it looks more organic.
