What's getting requested in the chair this year at Dino's Barbershop? Here are the men's haircut trends we're seeing across San Diego in 2026.
San Diego's beach-casual style keeps pushing toward natural texture — textured crops and French crops over a fade that look intentional with almost no styling.
The burst fade — curving around the ear — is everywhere, especially paired with a modern mullet or a mohawk-leaning shape. It takes a skilled hand to blend the curve clean.
When in doubt, the mid fade is the year's all-purpose pick: enough contrast to look sharp, conservative enough for work.
Fuller, well-shaped beards with a crisp razor line continue to trend — pairing a defined beard with a clean fade is the look most guys are asking for.
In 2026 the skin fade and mid fade remain the most-requested at Dino's, with textured crops, burst fades and modern mullets close behind.
Dino's Barbershop in Normal Heights dials in skin, burst, drop and taper fades plus the Edgar and modern mullet, at 3184 Adams Ave. Book on Square.
