Fringe has quickly become a popular hair trend for men. It softens and frames oval or square face shapes and works well with high-fade haircuts and cowlicks. There are various styles of fringe haircuts, including French Crop, Cesar Crop, Choppy Fringes, and Textured Fringes. These trendy fringe haircuts can be styled easily using hair wax or matte clay.
Long-top Fringe
For men who prefer long hair, adding fringes brushed forward creates an effortless style that complements many looks. However, this hairstyle may be challenging for those who sweat or live in humid climates. This style suits best men with curly or wavy hair that has lots of texture. It can be brushed forward and styled using pomade or matte clay. Alternatively, you can spritz salt spray into your hair and blow dry it on for a casual yet contemporary look.
Comb Over
The comb-over is a classic look for men with short hair. It can be worn straight or wavy to add volume and frame the face. This style is reminiscent of the pompadour and pairs nicely with fades or undercuts.
Textured Fringe
This modern fringe style is excellent for men with naturally wavy or curly hair or who want a natural texture. It can be swept to either side or pushed back and complements fades or undercuts. Trimming this look every six to eight weeks is recommended to maintain its shape.
Choppy Fringe
Fringes can frame the face, emphasize robust features, and shorten a longer forehead. Depending on the cut and styling, they add a rocker edge or professional polish; deployed or uneven fringes create a harder-edged look, while straight-across boundaries have a more polished appearance. Pomade or wax can help retain the shape and achieve optimal styling results.
Long Fringe
A long fringe is an eye-catching style that works well with any hair length, especially curly or wavy locks. You can change the style by pairing it with faded sides or adding hard parting and tapering for a more edgy look. Keep your locks moisturized with this style to prevent an unattractive frizzy effect from humidity and sweat.
Short Cropped Fringe
The short-cropped fringe is a neat and refined cut that suits different hair types. It features a textured frame for an angular and asymmetrical effect and a high fade back and sides to avoid a messy look. Ask your barber to create texture and movement at the top using slide cutting or heavy blending.
Side Part
Maintaining a fringe hairstyle can be challenging without proper styling techniques. Windy conditions or excessive sweat on the forehead can make the fringe dislodged or oily. The side part fringe style is a classic, professional cut that frames the face without compromising professionalism. Combining it with a taper fade, and hard part adds a bold, eye-catching look.
