We will also take a closer look at the features of this haircut and the stylish options for styling it.
Characteristic
The Gavroche haircut owes its name to one of V. Hugo's novels about a homeless boy who was called Gavroche. Often this haircut is called "tomboy", because this particular hairstyle is suitable for daring natures with a rebellious spirit. The most popular haircut was in the sixties. Of course, after some time, the haircut has gone through certain changes and has become more modern, but the original idea for the style still remained unchanged.
The distinctive features of this haircut include the following nuances.
- Elongated strands of hair remain on the back of the head, and a voluminous hair cap is formed on top of the head, sometimes with a pile.
- The temporal parts are usually clipped in the shape of an elongated triangle.
- The trimming of the strands is uneven; thinning is necessarily done to achieve a torn effect. Sometimes a hairstyle can be created with subtle transitions between the so-called tiers of hair, and sometimes a bright contrast can be performed.
A bang, which is almost always an important attribute of a Gavroche haircut, can be:
- straight;
- beveled;
- short (feathers);
- with thinning.
Gavroche is made for a wide variety of hair lengths, but the medium is especially popular and versatile, with which it is convenient for the master to work.

Haircut at home
Gavroche haircut can be done independently at home. The main thing is to have basic skills in hairdressing. When performing this haircut, part of the hair on top remains longer, but the back of the head can be trimmed in a variety of ways.
As the main tools for a haircut you will need:
- hairdressing scissors + hair thinning scissors;
- massage comb + comb for parting;
- several hair clips;
- mirror.
It should be noted right away that if there are no practical skills in cutting people, then it is better not to experiment on yourself, but to entrust your hair to a professional. Otherwise, there can be very dire consequences. The advantage of the master's work is also that he does not exclusively use the template of a particular haircut, because in any work there can always be small exceptions and nuances that do not make this kind of hairstyle typical and overly similar to each other. Moreover, it is more convenient for the master to work with hair, because he can combine the length of the curls, taking into account the type of the lady's face and its features.
So, working directly in front of the mirror, we follow the step-by-step instructions and professional recommendations.
- Hair washed with shampoo and conditioner should be lightly blow-dried. Then they should be divided into 2 parts using a parting comb. The hair from the crown is best collected up and secured with a clip, in front it is very important to form 2 sections of the temporal zones and 1 parietal. You should also separate the area of the future bangs.
- The haircut should start from the back of the head. The locks of hair should be thoroughly combed with a fine comb and trimmed to the desired length.
- All other hairs at the back of the head are cut in the same classic manner, with the ends being trimmed. It is best to profile thick hair right away, rather than leaving it for later, to make it easier to style it later.
- Then you should start cutting all the other highlighted areas and parts. Following the classic scheme, each strand of hair must be pulled out to the face and cut in such a way that each subsequent strand is about 1 cm shorter than the previous one.
- It is very important not to forget about the direction of the haircut. It should follow from the back of the head to the front.
- At the end, all hair should be thinned. However, if the hair is already thin, then this stage can be excluded.
As for the subsequent care of the hairstyle, it is immediately worth saying that you need to update the haircut in time and prevent it from overgrowing, since protruding strands of different lengths look very unkempt.
To maintain a healthy and neat hair, it should be properly styled. So, hair of medium length can be pulled with an iron. Mousse, varnish or wax are great styling products for styling gavroche. To create wavy hair, you can use special styling sprays and curlers.
