Similar to death bro, its more of a faux hawk than quiff to me. The sides aint exactly shaved either. To style this hairstyle is actually quite simple. But the trick for this hairstyle to work is that your styling product must have good holding power and your hair cannot be too thick. You have to layer it enough for it to give this look.
1) IMO, i will choose clay if i want to sport this hairstyle. Start off with an appropriate amount (not too much; you will have to add on later anyway). Rub adequately onto your palms to heat up the clay.
2) Start off with the crown area by targeting both the sides. Try to style it upwards as if you're building a pyramid. Hook your fingers through the "pyramid" by loosening it to avoid a "clumped up" look. This will make you look more natural.
3) By now, the clay should be more or less used up. Add more power by digging more clay and rubbing it onto your palms one more time. This time round, target the fringe by styling it up. Crunch the hair if your fringe doesn't stay there (too long and straight). You might have to blow dry later to hold it there, depending on the situation. Pinch the fingers from the roots to the ends to make it more texturized.
4) The shape should be out by this step. Touch up on the crown with hair spray to hold it there. With no hair spray, it will most probably collapse. Good holding strength is the soul to this hairstyle.
Hope it helps!
