I'm trying to write my protagonist and he's sporting this hair cut but I have no idea how to describe it any suggestions?

Longish, (slightly) messy hair. If you want any more details than that, look for technical or informal terms.

Try not to describe it in more than 5~10 words though, because readers won't appreciate dragging things out by trying to tell them exactly what you imagined his hair to look like. Their imagination will do the job.

Rough jaw length hair with bangs just long enough to brush the tips of his eyelashes. Multiple layers as if cut at home with a dagger.

If you could picture in your mind, hair so sharp, it could cut cheese, the hair upon his head it the exact opposite. He looks like a sea anemone is trying to eat his face from behind. Grease black hair in pointy clumps, disorganized and disheveled, one would be forgiven if they assumed a comb never made contact with this man's scalp. Nay, I suspect you could use any sort of hair styling tool and use it to repell this man like a cross would repell dracula.
