Mens Medium Hairstyles
Currently trendy, men’s medium hairstyles pair textured locks with flawless fades. To achieve an upscale yet rugged style, apply pomade to your strands before brushing them back. This timeless classic combines a low taper fade with a side parting and quiff, creating an eye-catching masculine haircut. It’s easy to style and suitable for just about everyone!
Buzz Cut
The buzz cut is an ideal low-maintenance hairstyle. There is no need to condition or style it each morning; roll out of bed and go! Add flair to your look by pairing the buzz cut with a comb-over or side part, or experiment with artistic fade cuts such as lines, diamonds, or zig-zags. Men with thin hair often benefit from having their heads buzzed; the charge appears fuller and more defined, creating the illusion of fullness in the crown area. However, be wary if your face shape is round, as this haircut might accentuate this feature further.
Crew Cut
A classic crew cut is one of the most adaptable hairstyles. It’s easy to style and perfect for both formal occasions and informal get-togethers. The crew cut features tapered back and sides, making it ideal for those with thin locks. If you want to try something modern, consult your barber for a short top trim and a low to medium fade that leaves various styling options, from spiked with gel to texturizing spray.
Long Undercut
Long undercuts are an elegant way to showcase the length of your locks. The sides and back hair are cut short while the top size remains longer. An immaculate undercut will give your look an elegant aesthetic, while messy ones create a more informal style. Furthermore, both tones pair perfectly with facial hair. This style works exceptionally well on square or diamond-shaped faces as its angular features balance. However, it may not suit those with thin or fine hair as the shaved sections could expose scalp visibility.
Side Part
The Side Part is one of the timeless classic men’s haircuts. It’s ideal for those seeking a sleek, clean appearance and pairs nicely with a low fade or comb-over for added definition and a high-contrast silhouette. Use a gel or pomade to hold its shape throughout the day and maintain this hairstyle’s form and hold. After years of center-part dominance, side parts have made a comeback. It suits most face shapes while creating more volume at the crown of your head.
Modern Fade
The modern fade is an excellent style choice for men looking for a clean-shaven appearance. This haircut can be utilized with any hairstyle and works equally well on short or long locks. Additionally, maintenance of this haircut requires only regular trips to the barber. A skin fade or bald fade haircut is one of the more daring styles of fades available today, ideal for emphasizing thick texture on the top of your locks.
Curly Curls
Curly hair can make you stand out in any crowd, especially in its prime. Unfortunately, it takes forever to dry and can frizz easily in humid environments. However, this hair type can be low maintenance with the right products and techniques. Look for a curl cream to define and moisturize your coils. Those with 3a loopy “S”-shaped coils and 3b springy ringlets around the size of a Sharpie marker may also benefit from anti-humidity treatments.
Modern Pompadour
Bruno Mars’ rendition of the classic pompadour is ideal for men with thick locks. It makes a versatile style suitable for any situation, especially those with oval or elongated faces. This variation of the pompadour features a low fade on both sides and a classic scissor-cut style on top, offering an effortlessly stylish yet low-maintenance option. Perfect for men who only have a little spare time!
Modern Teardrop Fade
This style features a rounded fade that fades down behind the ear. It is ideal for men looking to add some edge to their look. Its textured quiff on top and blurry fade create an exciting contrast that looks sharp. When asking for this haircut, explain that you want the fade to drop down and follow the shape of your head. Some barbers may not understand what a “drop fade” is, so it would be beneficial if you could bring along an example photo as proof.
