Flat Top Haircut
A flat-top haircut can be ideal for men with thick, straight locks. This modern take on the butch cut looks particularly impressive when combined with either a low or high fade.
Faded Military Haircut
A faded military haircut can help disguise scars, bumps, or an uneven head shape. It is particularly useful if you have an extended forehead that makes you self-conscious; according to barber Stanley Hordijk, this look brings out features while complementing the shape of your face, making your elements stand out and completing its condition – perfect for pairing with a beard or mustache styles too. He suggests using matte styling products such as Regal Gentleman Texture Paste to create a natural-looking finish.
