Get The Gallagher Brothers’ Iconic Oasis Haircut

Certainly, the Oasis Reunion is topping Google’s search charts. Fair enough. Aside from being a major band of the 90s, the reconciliation of the Gallagher brothers is a piece of positive news. Family feuds are more common than we might think, so the reconciliation of the two is a joy. Having said that, I must admit that what most captures my attention in this whole story is Noel and Liam’s hairstyle. Over 30 years on, the duo’s Mod haircut remains intact and has already become a micro-trend among girls and boys. In this article, we’ll explain how to achieve the Gallagher brothers’ iconic Oasis haircut and who is already sporting bangs and mullets.

So, What Exactly Is a Mod Cut?

Mod is a subculture that originated in England in the 50s through the 60s, focused on fashion and music. The haircut was a signature of the movement. The Mod cut is usually a shorter scissor cut on the sides with a straight fringe and volume on top. In the 80s and 90s, the Mod haircut and aesthetic made a strong comeback.

How to Get The Iconic 90s Hairstyle?

Mod hair is coming back stronger than ever with a bang and mullet—think Stranger Things-style mullets. However, there are variations to Mod cuts regarding length and texture. According to hairstylists, the best thing to do is to talk to your hairdresser and decide on the details that match your face shape. It could be a long mullet or a more voluminous top, almost like a very short bob cut. The fringe can be asymmetrical or straight and cut right in the middle of the forehead. Importantly, the Mod cut can suit any face shape, particularly oval or square. The more hair you have, the better – whether curly, straight, or wavy. Styling is crucial to achieving the texture and shape of the hair, and for this, hairdressers use salt spray.

Is the Gallagher Brothers’ Haircut Just For Men?

If you search for Mod hair on Google, you’ll mainly see men’s hairstyles. However, the iconic 90s hairstyle is unisex. There are plenty of examples of how cool this cut looks on a woman.

• Emma Corrin – In the TV series A Murder at The End of The World, Emma Corrin’s character sports a Mod-style cut. The hair is cut forward, with volume on top of the head and a thick fringe, achieved with salt spray. It looks more like Noel Gallagher’s haircut.

• Kristen Stewart – The actress debuted her new hairstyle at Berlinale in 2023 and 2024 while promoting her new film, Love Me. In Kristen’s case, bangs and a long mullet create the disordered movement of this cut. We love it! It looks more like Liam Gallagher’s haircut.
