Textured Crop & French Crop in Dubai
by Senior Barber Ali

A great textured crop is built from the inside, by removing weight where you cannot see it so the top moves on its own. Ali has more than 10 years behind the chair and was trained personally by master hairstylist Jason Makki in exactly those scissor and texturizing techniques. Textured crops, French crops, quiffs, pompadours, two-block and side-part cuts, shaped after a consultation, then washed and styled. AED 180 at Jason Makki Salon in Al Jafiliya.

Why Book Ali for a Textured Cut

Ali is a senior barber at Jason Makki Salon, a premium men’s salon on Al Mankhool Road in Al Jafiliya, Dubai. Trained directly by founder Jason Makki, he works with the same consultation method, scissor techniques and finishing standards that Jason teaches on his YouTube channel. The difference shows in texture. Ali point-cuts and removes bulk from inside the hair rather than just shortening it. The result is a crop or quiff that sits right with very little product, holds up in Dubai humidity, and grows out in shape instead of turning flat or boxy. His clients book him for the full range, from short crops to longer scissor cuts, and many add a beard styling to the same visit.

Textured Crop

Short, choppy, point-cut layers on top with a broken-up fringe pushed forward. Because the fringe is light rather than one heavy line, it copes far better with humidity. It can sit over scissor-cut sides or a low taper.

French Crop

Short, choppy, point-cut layers on top with a broken-up fringe pushed forward. Because the fringe is light rather than one heavy line, it copes far better with humidity. It can sit over scissor-cut sides or a low taper.

Textured Fringe & Curtain Hair

Short, choppy, point-cut layers on top with a broken-up fringe pushed forward. Because the fringe is light rather than one heavy line, it copes far better with humidity. It can sit over scissor-cut sides or a low taper.

Modern Quiff & Pompadour

Height and volume on top, cut so it lifts naturally instead of relying on heavy product. The pompadour is the more structured, formal version, and the modern quiff is looser.

Two-Block & Side Part

A two-block keeps a longer top falling over shorter sides. The side part is the classic executive cut, with a defined part and tidy, tapered sides.

Ali also cuts longer styles. For medium and long hair, see our signature layered haircut for men, and for natural texture, our curly haircut.

What Happens During Your Two Hours?

01 · Consultation

Ali checks your hair density, how the hair grows at the crown and hairline, your forehead and face shape, and how much time you spend styling. A reference photo helps, and he will tell you what will and will not translate to your hair.

02 · Sides

Scissor-over-comb for a softer finish, or a low taper if you want it cleaner. The sides are cut to balance the top, not as a separate job.

03 · Texture on Top

This is the core of the cut. Ali point-cuts and texturizes to take weight out from inside the hair, so the top moves and separates on its own.

04 · Fringe, Wash and Style

The fringe is detailed last, then your hair is washed, styled and explained: how to style it at home and when to come back, usually every three to five weeks.

05 · Add Beard Styling to Your Cut

Ali is equally strong with beards. Adding a beard styling to your haircut means the beard line, cheek line and sideburns are shaped to match the cut in one appointment. See the beard design service or simply add it when booking.
