Our Signature Men's Haircut in Dubai — The Layered Cut
-
The layered haircut is the men's haircut most clients come to Jason Makki Salon for. It is built entirely with scissors: weight is removed from inside the hair, not just trimmed from the ends. The result has natural movement, stays controlled in Dubai's heat and humidity, and grows out in shape instead of turning heavy or boxy.
-
A layered cut suits men with medium to long hair, thick or wavy hair that feels bulky, and anyone growing their hair out who wants it to look intentional at every stage. Jason Makki's layered technique is one of the most-watched parts of his YouTube channel, followed by 3.3 million people, and every senior barber at the salon is trained in the same method.
-
Every layered haircut starts with a consultation on your hair's density, growth pattern and daily styling routine. Book it as a Master Haircut with Jason (AED 350) or with a senior barber (AED 180). Most clients return every [6–8] weeks to keep the shape.
For longer hair, see our layered haircut for men page.
The Scissor Cut Specialty
How Is a Men's Scissor Haircut Done?
Jason Makki’s Signature Scissor-Cutting Technique for Men
-
A men's scissor haircut is built section by section using scissors rather than relying mainly on clippers. The hairstylist works with the hair's natural movement, growth pattern, density and weight to create shape, layers and a more natural finish.
-
At Jason Makki Salon, scissor cutting is the technique behind our signature layered haircuts for men.
-
Unlike a clipper-focused cut, a scissor cut allows the hairstylist to remove weight selectively and control how the hair moves. This is especially useful for medium-length and longer men's hairstyles where shape, texture and flow are important.
-
Jason Makki has more than 20 years of hairstyling experience and has personally trained the salon's senior barbers in the same scissor-cutting approach.
Who Is a Scissor Cut Best For?
Consider a scissor haircut if you:
-
Have hair longer than approximately 5 cm
-
Want a layered men's haircut
-
Want more natural movement and flow
-
Have thick or wavy hair that feels heavy
-
Are growing your hair longer
-
Prefer a softer finish rather than a freshly clipped appearance
Every scissor haircut begins with a consultation to assess your hair’s growth pattern, density, length and desired style.

Great experience at Jason Makki! Ali did an excellent job with my haircut and beard, taking the time to understand what I wanted while offering thoughtful advice and recommendations throughout.

Id like to thank Barber Youssef for his exceptional work friendliness and professionalism he took his time making sure i got exactly what i wanted and put and practiced his expertise with effort its hard finding a barber that is good with long hair in dubai but he definitely did the job, will be coming back thank you Youssef.
After literally years trying to find a salon and barber that understands how to cut a men’s flow cut. I’ve finally found Jason Makki! Extremely appreciative of his expertise and skill in using scissored techniques for cutting my hair, without losing volume and length. And creating a flow, textured haircut with bounce and natural flow. It’s safe to say, I’ve found my place! Thanks again, Jason.

Most-Requested Men's Haircut Styles in Dubai
Beyond the signature layered cut, these are the men's haircuts clients book most often at the salon. Every style is adapted to your face shape, hair type and lifestyle during the free consultation.
Flow Cut
-
A flow cut is medium to long hair cut with scissors so it falls back naturally without product. It is a close relative of the layered cut and suits men growing their hair past the ears.
Skin Fade
-
Blended down to bare skin for the sharpest finish. A skin fade stays crisp for about two weeks, then needs a touch-up.
Textured Crop
-
A short, choppy top over faded sides. It needs little product and stays manageable in Dubai heat.
Grey Hair and Executive Cut
-
A grey hair cut uses a clean, conservative scissor shape that makes grey look intentional and polished. For clients who prefer to blend or cover grey, it pairs with our [ammonia-free hair coloring for men].
Pompadour and Side Part
-
Classic volume on top with a defined part. It is the go-to haircut for formal, executive and public-facing roles.
Curly Haircut
-
Curly hair is shaped curl by curl with scissors to control volume and frizz, not bulk-cut with clippers.
Premium Men's Haircuts for Dubai Professionals
-
Most of our regulars do not live in Al Jafiliya. They drive from Dubai Marina (18 minutes), Downtown Dubai (12 minutes), JLT (20 minutes), JVC (25 minutes), Business Bay (10 minutes), Palm Jumeirah (22 minutes), and Media City (15 minutes). They make the trip because the cut is worth the drive. Our clients are business professionals, executives, public figures, expats with image-sensitive roles, and Dubai residents who treat their haircut as a non-negotiable line item — not a commodity. If that is how you think about grooming, you will recognise the room.

For clients closer by, the salon is on the ground floor of Al Hanaa Center, Al Mankhool Road — minutes from Bur Dubai, Karama, Satwa and Jumeirah 1, with 3 hours of free parking.
