45 Stylish Neymar Hairstyle and Haircut Ideas for All Football Lovers

Home » 45 Stylish Neymar Hairstyle and Haircut Ideas for All Football Lovers

February 24, 2022 By Lara Thompson 22 Comments

Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior or simply Neymar – the bad boy of the football world. We’re looking at the thing that we love most about the Brazilian player – other than his mad skills on the field, of course: his trademark Neymar Haircut.

Neymar’s life came to everyone’s attention after the footballer stood out for his impressive abilities from an early age. He was a star for Santos FC as a teenager, winning four consecutive Player of the Year awards and becoming one of the most popular public figures in Brazil.

Neymar leapt to Europe to join FC Barcelona for the start of the 2013-2014 season, becoming an important member of a club that has claimed numerous domestic and international titles. After leading the Brazilian footballers to their first Olympic gold medal in 2016, the striker moved to Paris Saint-Germain, France, the following year.

Neymar’s life and the Mohawk style years

Neymar is the first Brazilian player to choose the Mohawk haircut style. Nowadays, almost every youth football fan in Brazil gets a haircut like this in an attempt to copy their hero. He is also the first and only Brazilian footballer to appear on the cover of Time Magazine.

Changing from year to year, or even several times a year, Neymar Jr.’s hair has his league of fans by now, not to mention all the men out there who want to copy it. With that in mind, we have compiled a list of amazing Neymar haircut ideas that will surely serve you as inspiration.

1. High and Gelled Neymar Haircut

If there’s one thing we can give Neymar credit for, hair-wise, is the fact that he took a lot of haircuts which we now consider outdated and completely made them his own. Here he is sporting a gelled high top with shaved sides.

2. Combed Forward Long Bangs

As you might have already noticed if you are a fan, Neymar loves his fringe. He does everything he can to highlight it and cover his forehead. Here he is doing just that, with a very simple, yet effective haircut.

3. The Bleached Blonde Neymar Hairstyle

This style is all about the faux bleached Mohawk, which Neymar Jr. adores. He proudly pairs it with long bangs, which he pulls over his forehead, in a signature hairstyle that has made headlines.

4. The Elegant Neymar Haircut

Even though he is all about playing sports and being comfortable, the soccer player can also kick it up a notch and take the elegant road. This hairstyle has trimmed (but not shaved) sides, and a wavy top.

5. Messy and Relaxed Neymar Hairstyle

This is what Neymar’s hair looks like when he is not wearing copious amounts of hair gel or wax in it. It’s long and relaxed, giving him a roguish look and boyish charm.

6. Short and Curly Hairstyles

When he was younger and hadn’t discovered the wonders of the hair gel yet, Neymar used to wear his hair as natural as possible and cut it very short. As you can well see, he has his natural curls as well as his natural dark hair color showing here.

7. The Platinum Blonde Neymar Haircut

When the hunger for blonde strikes, it seems to hit everyone in the Barcelona soccer team. Apart from Neymar himself, who is sporting a short and very blonde hairstyle, you can also see Lionel Messi in the foreground, wearing the same shade.

8. The Brush Top

Here is Neymar wearing a more natural look. His hair has been cut down to a minimum leaving only the top, which resembles a brush. In other words, it’s spiky, messy, and very rugged.

9. The Quiff and Mohawk Neymar Hairstyle

The mohawk is one of Neymar’s favorite hairstyles. Therefore, he has done everything in his power to keep things interesting in that department. For example, Neymar’s mohawk is styled with a quiff too, in this photo.

10. High Top Neymar Haircut

If you feel that you are a bit vertically challenged, then this is the haircut for you. The very high flat beehive will add a few inches of height to your figure. Use high-quality hair products to get this effect.

11. Mohawk with Highlights

We don’t know if the space movie was his inspiration for this haircut or not, but this is surely what it looks like from behind. The hairstyle is a spiky Mohawk, flecked with blonde highlights. It also leaves his neck tattoo exposed, which is a plus.

12. Long Spikes Neymar Hairstyle

Taking a cue from Cristiano Ronaldo, here is Neymar showing his love for spikes. You will need a hefty amount of hair gel or wax for this one. Also, if need be, you can use a straightening iron.

13. Dark Honey Brown Hair Color

For this formal suit and bow tie occasion, the soccer player has opted to dye his hair a dark honey shade. He is also sporting a very simple and elegant hairstyle, which you can easily copy.

14. Two Shades of Mohawk with Shaved Sides

Here is another Neymar haircut that should truly inspire you. It’s a perfectly layered mohawk, made up of two shades. The undergrowth is his natural, we presume, darker color, and the upper locks are bright blonde.

15. Neymar Haircut with Messy Spikes

As you can well see, not all spiked hairstyles have to be formal and well-groomed. You can also take a walk down memory lane back to the nineties and spike up your gelled hair into a messy tangle of spikes.

16. Neymar Haircut with Blonde Top

Neymar is no stranger to the hipster trends, which he seems to love. Here he is combining a very formal attire with hipster glasses, oversized earrings, and of course, his signature blonde quiff.

17. High Top with Razor Lines Neymar Hairstyle

This dark-coloured hairstyle has a very high and flat top and faded sides. To all of this, Neymar decided to add a razor line where his side parting should have been, giving it an extra kick.

18. Gelled Neymar Haircut

As you might have guessed, if you want to copy some or all of Neymar’s looks, the gel has to become a huge part of your life. This is a comb-over in which all the strands have been combed over to the back.

19. The Fluffy Mohawk

Here is a picture of the soccer player from when he was younger. His hairstyle is a mohawk that has not had its parts arranged with mousse, gel or wax. Instead, it’s all-natural, fluffy, and coarse.

20. The Dirty Blonde Neymar Haircut

He has, indeed, sported a lot of shades of blonde so far. However, it seems as though this is the one he should be sticking to, as it perfectly complements his hazel eyes as well as his beautiful skin.

21. Dark Chocolate Brown Hair Color Neymar Hairstyle

However, that doesn’t mean to say that if he looks astoundingly good in dirty blonde, he doesn’t look good in anything else. Take this dark chocolate shade of brown he is wearing in this pic and see how well it frames his face.

22. Disconnected Blonde and Brown Fauxhawk

Now, let’s take the two colors we talked about so far and put them together, adding his favorite hairstyle, the hawk, of course. What do we get? This masterpiece of a hairstyle with platinum blonde undergrowth and chocolaty natural spikes.

23. The Copper Mullet and Mohawk

There aren’t a lot of people there who would brave the mullet in this day and age. However, Neymar is one of them. He dyed his hair a fiery copper, styled it into a mohawk and added mullet bangs and tails to it.

24. The Gelled Fauxhawk with Bangs

Still, that’s not all that he can pull out of this hairstyle. Therefore, if you want to copy it, you must take all of the above, meaning mohawk, mullet, bangs, and tails, and add a copious amount of gel to it. This style can be worn by men with all hair types, even thin hair.

25. Bleached Blonde and Bangs

This Neymar haircut is all about the bangs. Apart from the fact that he has dyed his hair a bleached blonde, he also divided his bangs in half. The lower part rests on his forehead while the upper part is up in the air, in spikes.

26. The Umbrella Neymar Hairstyle

Remember those days in the nineties when you thought this style was just the coolest and your mom wouldn’t let you get it? Well, now you can see Neymar himself endorsing it. Plus, he makes it look so cool!

27. The Red Crew Cut

Here is another hair color that the superstar soccer player has tried over the years. You can easily copy this hairstyle, seeing as it is a simple crew cut, with the top side grown out. However, you might want to visit your stylist if you want to get exactly that shade of cherry red.

28. The Flaming Mohawk Haircut

Yes, indeed he is. This is Neymar sporting a Mohawk with a fringe and a tail, of course. The color is a blazing red, which brings out the color of his eyes, as well as his beautiful complexion.

29. The Gelled Mullet and Bangs with Headband

Even though he managed to pull off this awesome and intricate hairstyle, Neymar still has to go out on the soccer pitch and play. Therefore, he came up with the idea of keeping his locks in place with a headband, which quickly became a trend.

30. The Copper Mohawk with Faded Sides

31. The Natural Pompadour Neymar Haircut

32. The Platinum Disconnected Curly Haircut

Seeing as he is now the most expensive player in the world, it’s safe to say Neymar is soccer’s golden boy. Therefore, it is only befitting that he has a hairstyle to match. This is a curly platinum blonde high top with naturally dark shaved undersides.

33. The Elvis Presley-Style Neymar Haircut

This side of the lovely Neymar reminds us a bit of Elvis. Maybe because both men have the same boyish charming good looks which are due, in part, to their wonderfully similar hairstyles.

34. The Warrior Look

37. The Pop Singer Neymar Haircut

If he weren’t a famous soccer player, Neymar could have easily been a teenage pop singer by his good looks and charm alone. Moreover, he has the hair to back that up so, why not?

38. The Bed Head Selfie Hairstyle

    For the haircut #10, how would you go to your barber and ask for that exact haircut (barber termenalogy)?

      Hi Joel,
      As mentioned in the article at #10, you could tell your barber you want a high top (that is the long, top part) with a disconnect (that is the bottom, shorter half). You get to choose how long you want the top or the bottom (a two or three) to be. Otherwise, show your barber our picture of Neymar for maximum efficiency! 🙂
      Happy haircuts!

      Hi, Andrew!
      Thanks for reaching out to us! The secret to getting curls in a high top is moisture. Try using a leave-in conditioner and natural hair oils such as Argan Oil or Olive oil cream. They will ensure your curls don’t break the shape of the high top.
      If you have straight hair, then you will need a hair curler and firm hold hair products to keep the curls in place.
      Happy haircuts!
