Introduction
Charles Matthew Hunnam is best known as “Jax Teller” from the drama series Sons of Anarchy (2008-2014). He was also twice nominated for the Critics' Choice Television Award for best actor. His character was bold, rough, and fiercely dangerous. His cut is still admired by men who still ask their barber for it.
But there is a quick catch: the Hunnam look takes patience, weight, and length. Growing your hair longer takes many months. But if you have thin hair or a receding hairline, it might be different for you to achieve a fuller look. This is where a hair replacement system is a total game changer.
In this blog post, we'll cover everything you need to know about Jax Teller's hairstyle and how it changes across seasons in the same show. You can also explore TopUnique’s exclusive hair systems that work well for recreating Teller’s styles.
What Is the Jax Teller Hair Style?
His all-time best hairstyle is always a slicked-back bob. This style is 7-8inches long enough to sit perfectly just below the jawline.
The front will have enough weight and length to comb back from the forehead and tuck behind the ears. At the back, the hair will have movement and texture; instead of a blunt haircut, it will effortlessly give off a lived-in, relaxed look.
Its natural shine and light hold will keep this hairstyle slick without looking stiff. At the same time, a light taper fade around the sideburns will instantly add a cleaner, more modern edge. Overall, Jax Teller's hair looks effortless.
In reality, it will look like Teller just ran his hand through his hair and left it that way. But to get the same results every time, it needs enough thickness and length to hold the shape properly. This style perfectly combines loose texture, clean sideburns, and slick-back styling for a rugged yet polished look.
How Jax Teller’s Hair Changed Throughout Sons of Anarchy
Throughout the journey of Sons of Anarchy, Jax Teller’s hair has changed over the years. You can clearly see each version is slightly different from another. From his early days, with loose, longer hair, to the clean style he wore later is quite impressive. His hair becomes more polished and clean with the changes in character demands.
In Seasons 1 and 2, he wore loose, longer hair with a naturally messy finish. The hair length falls around his neck and ears, giving him a more youthful and relaxed look. However, he kept his facial hair lighter with a short goatee or stubble. This is one of the most easygoing looks that could match young Jax.
Later in season 3 brings a rougher version of the same hairstyle. There was an addition of a thick, fuller beard with long hair that gives him a more rugged look. This combination of heavier facial hair and longer hair makes his look tougher.
The biggest change you will notice is in season 4, where Jax hair was seen noticeably shorter, with a cleaner look throughout the season. With this short haircut, his face was more visible, giving him a sharper and more practical appearance. So, you can say this was a long goodbye to the longer hair from his previous looks.
In the later seasons, he eventually returned to longer hair and started wearing slicked-back looks. The hair length was longer at the front. At the same time, the sides and back were kept neater to control the overall appearance. In season 7, this slicked-back hairstyle became the most popular and recognizable Jax Teller’s hair.
How to Recreate the Jax Teller Look With a Hair System
Growing your natural hair takes time and requires patience, particularly if you have thin hair. TopUnique’s hair system is the perfect approach to achieve the density and length needed for Jax Teller’s style from day one.
The front of the style is very important because when slicking back, hair will make your hairline fully visible. With a realistic-looking hairline, you can help add more fullness. At the same time, it will deliver a naturalistic hairline. It is a great option to match or adjust to real hair color.
The hair length and base matter the most because there is no fringe that will hide your base. You must select a hair system with a natural hairline and discreet base. While you are sweeping your hair back, it should not feel too heavy.

How to Style and Care for Jax Teller Hair
Once you have the right base and length, the styling is simple.
Start with a clean, dry hair system. Add a small amount of medium-to-strong pomade, warmed between your palms. Then comb the hair back with your fingers and set the shape with a wide-tooth comb.
Do not use too much product, or the hair will look wet, heavy, and fake.
Tuck the hair behind your ears, since this is part of the signature shape. Leave the back a little loose. A bit of texture keeps the look relaxed, and a perfect, flat finish looks less like Jax.
To care for it, be gentle with the front, since slicked-back styles put the focus on the hairline. Wash the pomade out after every few wears, because build-up weighs the hair down and dulls the shine. Store the system on a wig stand in a clean, dry place.
Always remove old tape or glue the right way before you apply a new product. With a little care, your hair system can keep its shape and shine for a long time.
