When considering shortening your locks, selecting an ideal style is paramount. Plenty of classes are available to meet all your needs while remaining easy to style and maintain.
Men with thin top hair should consider opting for the Faux Hawk, or Caesar cut, as it provides both an edgy look while remaining trendy and masculine at the same time.
Mohawk
Mohawk haircuts often give off an image of rebelliousness; however, various contemporary approaches convey confidence and creativity. For instance, opt for a short pixie cut featuring silver spikes for an ultra-sexy style, then frame your face further by adding feathered front bangs as an accentuating feature.
One exciting option is to keep the sides short while keeping the top long for an edgy rock and roll style that still looks professional. You could also use this opportunity to show off beautiful shades like this icy blonde shade; there are so many ways a mohawk can be customized, and that’s why it makes one of the top short haircuts! Your stylist can help you realize your desired look.
Faux Hawk
One of the men’s most favored short haircuts is the faux hawk, also known as a side-swept spiky haircut. Perfect for any special occasion and age range, this style suits straight or slightly wavy locks well.
Ruby Rose, known for her signature style of rocking a whippy faux hawk at MTV Summer Party events around Australia, showcased one such look during her appearance in Brisbane. To achieve the look yourself, start by spraying texturizer over your locks before tease styling well and spraying some strong-hold hairspray. And voila – your faux hawk is complete.
Faux Hawks are ideal for men looking for an easy yet stylish way to show confidence without the fuss and effort of styling a pompadour. This style can be easily managed, looking great no matter your outfit – combining clean lines of a fade with height and volume that make up its signature pompadour look.
Butch Cut
A butch cut is an easy and versatile short haircut style for men looking for a shorter haircut with minimal upkeep requirements. Additionally, this look works particularly well when combined with fades from the sides for added edge and personality.
This style, commonly referred to as the burr cut, can be achieved using a number zero size clipper all over your head. This look works well when worn with a shaved line or a full beard for an ultra-manly appearance.
Make your butch cut even more fashionable by asking your stylist to create an intricate part, which will effectively contrast your top layer of hair and the rest of your locks.
Caesar Cut
A Caesar cut is one of the top short haircuts for men because it looks spotless and won’t fade quickly, making it perfect for any man looking to stand out with their style.
A classic and timeless haircut, the quiff works well with any hair color and may also help men notice that their top hairline has begun thinning out.
For an elegant style, combine a Caesar cut with a high fade and French crop for maximum impact. This combination will garner plenty of compliments. Additionally, try playing with longer bangs by combing them across your forehead or sweeping them to either side for more rugged effects. And for added volume, add in a beard!
Military Style
Make an impactful fashion statement by opting for a military-style haircut. This unique cut requires minimal trimming since it emphasizes a head shape. Pair this look with either a Caesar haircut or a butch cut to show off its tapered effect.
To achieve this style, ask your barber for a fade that gradually transitions toward the skin around your temples and nape area, leaving the remaining length up top longer to create a dramatic contrast between your shorter sideburns and longer locks at the top.
Dove Men Care Medium Hold Molding Paste will allow you to achieve an innovative and sophisticated side sweep even without much length up top. Ideal for skipping PT classes.
