Peaky Blinders, a gangster family epic set in 1919 Birmingham England, literally has taken over our screens and nearly been a Netflix obsession.

Undercut Side & Textured Length on Top
When Thomas Shelby does not wear a hat with razor blades, he rocks an epic cut that is similar to this year’s textured crop trend. The cool cut is easy to wear and looks great for both formal and casual events.
The style looks modern but is actually from the 1920s. Pure, authentic 1920s haircuts were rough and utilitarian, often meant to be worn under hats when outside, and styled quickly if at all.
