The flattop (yes, it’s one word) is a retro hairstyle that’s like a crew cut with a spikey top. Maintaining a crisp flattop is difficult and it requires a new haircut every 1-2 weeks. In the 90’s, many entertainers chose the flattop as their ‘do of choice to both measure taller and show that they could afford a weekly barber visit. Below are the most famous flattoppers from the 90’s. Leave any that I missed in the comments.
