How to Style Men’s Long Haircut

Half-Up Ponytail

A half ponytail is an elegant and easy-to-manage style for men with long hair. It works for all lengths of locks and can be achieved by adequately moisturizing the hair before styling. This style features sandy blonde and honey brown strands gathered and braided into an eye-catching updo, with a few loose strands left at the ears for a relaxed appearance. It’s perfect for clearing the forehead and brightening up the face. Add a scrunchie for extra glam and match its color with bands to accentuate different hues in the locks.

Braid

Long and messy hair can look striking on men. This style keeps hair out of the face while remaining trendy. Use AXE Clean Cut Look: Classic Pomade to style the locks into place for optimal results. Fishtail braids are another timeless long hairstyle that is simple to master and works well with low, loose ponytails. Use a spray or gel to smooth flyaways and create side braids at the base of the locks for great color showcasing.

Afro

The Afro is an African culture and people-specific hairstyle characterized by curly locks with full, round shapes. Black men typically sport this look. Use hair oil to enhance curls and kinks to keep the Afro looking its best. Gently jiggle the strands with your fingertips to fluff up the hair and disentangle any clumps that form. This iconic style pairs well with a taper fade and makes a statement on black hair.

Long Layers

This stylish hairstyle keeps long locks seductive while adding an understated side part for a touch of edge. Make an appointment with your stylist to have long layers cut into your hair, framing the crown of your head and blending subtly into any existing layers in the back. This creates an edgy, feminine style that looks amazing when blown out or left to air dry, giving a lived-in texture. Use matte paste or styling products for added effect.

Long Pompadour

Men with long, straight hair can achieve suave sophistication with this eye-catching style. The pompadour suits most face shapes, particularly square and oval faces. Pair it with a quiff for an even more eye-catching effect. The classic pompadour has been worn by famous figures, adding a rock ‘n’ roll flair. Regular upkeep is required for this style, making it ideal for guys with time to maintain their looks. The pompadour can be achieved on straight or curly hair, featuring a classic comb-back quiff with sides shaved into taper fades for added flair.
