FIFA World Cup 2022: 10 Most ICONIC hairstyles of Lionel Messi over the years

Glory awaits! But only for one. Either it'll be the 'magical' Lionel Messi or 'mighty' Kylian Mbappe because it's Argentina vs France. One will walk out of the Lusail Stadium on Sunday (December 18) smiling and the other will surely with tears, but not tears of joy. We bring you some of the most unique, classy and the most stylish hairstyles "GOAT" Lionel Messi, the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner has had over many years.

Top dyed and full big beard

This dyed hairdo, which is one of Messi's more popular ones, has platinum blonde tips with the hair's natural colour showing underneath. A thick (and dark) moustache heightens the contrast which makes the soccer star look like a superstar!

Crosscut quiff

2/10

Messi sports a scissor-cut quiff that has a lot of volume from all sides and is finely shaped in the front. He completes the look with a matching beard, which adds a lot of masculine appeal to his appearance.

 

Brush up with narrow sides

3/10

This straightforward cut has a lot of flair despite having a low profile. The quick brush-up that can roll with the strikes is drawn into focus by uniformly tapering sides that point upward.

Short mod-mullet

This cut takes an 80s classic and spritzes it up a little for a more traditional appearance. The short mullet in the back is balanced out with a choppy fringe and full sides.

Taper fade brush up with a full beard

Messi adds even more volume to this picture by brushing his slightly longer hair upward and outward. The beard contributes to the cut's symmetry and proportion. Just the GOAT in every aspect.

Medium fringes

This medium fringe cut is another straightforward, low-maintenance hairdo that is a little bit longer in the front than Messi's other looks. However, everything remains balanced because the hair is nearly the same length all around. Messi donned this hairstyle in his 20s and was smashing all world records.

 

Short pompadour

7/10

Even though you might not think an athlete can have a quiff (hair brushed upwards and backwards), Messi has given it his spin with this short yet powerful quiff. Messi Quiff is an apt title for this hairdo.

 

Short tapered hair

8/10

Messi's haircut is unusually neat for him since styling products were used to hold the hair in place. Although the products are used to create movement, this look may also be achieved without the use of any styling or products as it looks more like "letting your hair down style".

 

Undercut and medium upper-crop

9/10
Lionel Messi

Messi has a history of sporting undercuts, and this one is complemented by a cropped, medium-length top that still has some bulk at the centre top.

Undercut and volumized straight side-comb

10/10

This undercut is a good blend of neat and messy. Even while the hair is short enough to not readily fall out of place, it nevertheless looks beautiful when that does happen. The flick in front keeps the hair in place yet "Messi".
