Without further ado, we review 40 examples of looks that will help you find the right cut according to your hair type. Let’s go!
Haircut for men with wavy hair
Wavy hair is all the rage! It’s ideal on a mid-length cut or short hair provided you have a good hair care routine. Wavy looks, shaggy lengths, neat cuts… We give you some ideas to adapt them to your wavy hair.
Wavy effect undercut
The undercut is one of the greatest classics of the moment! With its wavy locks on top and its clear sides, this haircut is the guarantee of a young and stylish look. Don’t forget to work the length of the hair on the top of the head with styling products and create beautiful waves.
Slicked back
Just like the undercut, the slicked back is popular with men this year. This style, both chic and sophisticated, gives a neat look to the hair. It is ideal for highlighting your masculine features.
Wavy pompadour
Men swear by it: the pompadour cut is a must-have in the world of men’s hairdressing. With these waves styled upwards, the hair appears thicker on the top of the head. A great way to assert your individuality.
Wavy Mullet
This time, the emphasis is on the waves that run from top to bottom of the hair. A retro style that you can sport to be on the cutting edge of fashion every day.
Tousled cut
To give texture to your hair, try this tousled effect. The “Fluffy hair” will give more volume and depth to the strands on top. An irresistible and seductive look!
Men’s haircuts with curly hair
Ditch the traditional hair looks to sport more daring styles. And there’s nothing like curly lengths to give charm and character to your masculine mane. Just like wavy hair, this texture is difficult to tame and maintain. Here are some ideas to make it easier for you.
Curly undercut
Want to look like the main character from the series “Peaky Blinders”? Try the undercut haircut. Its curly version allows you to keep volume on top while emphasizing your facial features. And why not let a rebellious strand fall on your forehead?
Tight curls
With a short cut, it will be easier to add volume to your natural texture. Opt for similar lengths on top and shorter sides to create a harmonious balance.
Curly Mullet
The mullet is one of the few hairstyles that have stood the test of time. In this style, the curly lengths add a modern and trendy finish to the hairstyle. Of course, the shape of the face and its morphology must be taken into account before taking the plunge.
Taper Fade
Curly hair can be highlighted with all sorts of cuts. The taper fade that offers a gradual transition from the top of the skull to the bottom is one example. The contrast created gives an impression of density and height on the top.
Asymmetrical bangs
To rebalance the morphology of the face, it is possible to opt for an asymmetrical fringe. By styling the fringe on the side, it will be easier to camouflage some imperfections and give the hairstyle a bold look.
Haircut for men with fine hair
You have fine hair but you don’t know how to give it volume? Don’t worry! Fine hair is the easiest to manage. Simply use a volumizing mousse or a light wax to create modern and elegant hairstyles. We give you a small variety of styles suitable for fine hair.
Pompadour cut
Here is a light version of the Pompadour cut! It goes well with straight and fine hair. Opt for a high gradient to give more volume to the lengths on top. It is ideal for elongating the round face!
Textured cut
Fine hair can be doubled in volume with a simple cut. Upward-pointing strands give the hair silhouette a youthful and relaxed look. The tousled-styled effect is the best option to hide the fine texture of the hair and elongate the face.
Slicked-back hair
A good haircut should be able to adapt to the shape of your face. So to soften the jawline, ask your hairdresser to create a subtle layering on the sides and add volume on top to balance the features and enhance the hair texture.
Hairstyle with a middle part
You can also comb your hair back but this time with a middle parting to give more movement to the hair. The flowing strands on the sides give an illusion of volume on the sides and structure the face.
Taper bas
The Taper is a haircut that can be worn in a variety of ways. Here, the fade is low and only targets the area around the ears and the lower part of the neck. With fine hair combed back, it looks chic and elegant.
Haircuts for Men with Thick Hair
If you have a full mane, ask your hairdresser for advice on the best cut for your hair type. A short haircut seems like an obvious choice to reduce the mass of hair. But if you prefer longer styles, adopt a fade look or light and airy hairstyles to enhance your masculine hairstyle. Scroll on!
