Style of hair shown by sibling around front of Criminal Courts, possibly (7,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scissor cut

'style of hair' is the definition.
(type of haircut)

'sibling around front of criminal courts possibly' is the wordplay.
'sibling' becomes 'sis' (short for sister).
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'front of' says to take the initial letters.
'possibly' indicates an anagram.
The first letter of 'criminal' is 'c'.
'sis' placed around 'c' is 'scis'.
'courts' with letters rearranged gives 'sorcut'.
'scis'+'sorcut'='SCISSOR CUT'

'shown by' acts as a link.
