As the team at Kensington Barbers, we’re passionate about creating iconic hairstyles inspired by football’s brightest talents. While we don’t claim these stars as clients, we specialize in crafting the same high-quality cuts that define their style. Footballers are celebrated not only for their skills on the pitch but also for their distinct personal looks, often showcased through their haircuts. Based in the heart of London, we at Kensington Barbers are your go-to destination for recreating the elite hairstyles of players like Bukayo Saka of Arsenal FC, Jude Bellingham of Real Madrid, Declan Rice of Arsenal FC, and Phil Foden of Manchester City. Here’s our breakdown of their signature cuts and how we can bring them to life for you.
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal FC): The High-Top Fade
Bukayo Saka, Arsenal’s dynamic winger often seen in a celebratory kneel, sports a classic high-top fade that we at Kensington Barbers can masterfully recreate. This cut features tightly cropped sides that gradually taper into a voluminous, textured top, creating a bold and structured silhouette. The high-top fade is both practical and stylish—short sides reduce maintenance during intense activities, while the voluminous top allows for personal expression. We can enhance this look with sharp line designs or a clean edge-up, exuding confidence and swagger that matches Saka’s on-field presence. A nod to ‘90s hip-hop culture, this modern reimagination showcases our ability to blend tradition with contemporary flair. Visit us to get Saka’s bold look!
Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid): The Textured Crop with Tapered Sides
Jude Bellingham, Real Madrid’s midfield sensation, rocks a textured crop with tapered sides, a versatile and modern haircut we can craft at Kensington Barbers to give you his polished yet youthful vibe. The top is left longer with a textured finish, styled forward or slightly tousled for an effortless look. The sides and back are tapered, creating a clean gradient that keeps the focus on the textured top. This haircut, ideal for those in the spotlight, strikes a balance between sophistication and practicality. We’ll ensure your style reflects Bellingham’s maturity and adaptability, perfect for any setting. The textured crop is low-maintenance yet sharp, making it a favorite for those seeking a sleek, professional appearance.
Declan Rice (Arsenal FC): The Slick Side Part
Declan Rice, Arsenal’s dependable midfielder, opts for a classic slick side part, a timeless style we meticulously execute at Kensington Barbers. This haircut features a deep side parting with the hair combed neatly to one side, while the top is kept longer and the sides are tapered for a clean finish. Styled with pomade or gel for a glossy, polished look, the slick side part gives you Rice’s mature, composed appearance that aligns with his leadership qualities. We tailor this traditional cut to suit high-profile settings, ensuring you look sharp anywhere. The clean lines and structured shape reflect our commitment to precision and elegance.
Phil Foden (Manchester City): The Skin Fade with Designed Lines
Phil Foden of Manchester City embraces a bold skin fade with designed lines, a daring style we bring to life at Kensington Barbers with creativity and precision. The skin fade starts with a near-shaved base on the sides and back, gradually blending into a slightly longer top that’s often textured or styled forward. What sets Foden’s look apart are the intricate lines we can shave into the sides—geometric patterns or lightning bolts that add a personalized, edgy flair. We customize these designs to reflect Foden’s youthful energy and creativity, making your haircut a statement. This high-maintenance style requires regular touch-ups, but our expertise ensures your look stays fresh and sharp, capturing Foden’s standout presence.
