Frosted tips

Frosted tips

A men's hairstyle (though women have adopted as well) in which the hair is cut short and formed into short spikes with hair gel or hair spray. The hair is bleached such that the tips of each spike will be light blond, usually in contrast to the wearer's main hair color. Frosted tips were prominent throughout the late 1990s. The style, without the coloring was also common and commonly just called "short and spiky".
