Trending 2022 Men’s Haircuts

 

Crew Cut

A classic that is here to stay, a timeless barbershop hairstyle earning the name from its military background. Worn by men for decades, the Crew Cut is characterized by short sides and back. The crew cut is a style that’s easy to maintain yet stylish, generally suiting men with a square face shape and thicker hair. Keep your Crew Cut looking sharp by visiting your hairstylist at least every four weeks to keep the sides short. Also, Crew Cut variations allow flexibility for personal preference by varying the length at the top.

 

Undercut

The undercut continues its trend as one of the favorite short hairstyles for men in 2021, almost becoming as common as a fade. The undercut is characterized by high contrast created by the difference in length between the sides and the top. With it being one of the most versatile cuts, this look is adaptable to your style and grooming routine, allowing you to choose from a variety of lengths. You can opt-in for long hair on top or go shorter for a less pronounced distinction in size. Styling your undercut can be as simple as using a brush to guide your hair’s direction while lightly blow-drying it.

Moreover, if your hair is on the thinning side or flat, a lower layered undercut can add volume to your hairstyle. Layers help create the illusion of having more hair, while the undercut gives it a modern twist. If you’re unsure of what length you desire, your StylesGo stylists can work with you to determine the ideal size that best suits your hair type, face shape, and personal style.

Pair your undercut with a medium-length beard to complete your look.

 

Low, Medium, and High Fades

A fade is a particular component of a haircut rather than a haircut in itself. However, fades are an essential factor to consider when talking to your stylist or barber, and it’s helpful to distinguish between different types of fade. The three standard heights for a fade are high, medium, and low, and guys can wear them with all hair types, including curly, wavy, and straight hair.

A low fade begins just about the nape of your neck, while a high fade starts just above your temples. A medium fade starts approximately where the ears connect the head. Low fades have nearly uniform length throughout, and mid-fades have more length, providing more body to a hairstyle. Keep in mind that if you opt-in for a haircut with a fade, you’ll want to keep your haircut looking fresh by visiting your stylist at least every three weeks.

Side Part

The side part haircut continues to be a classic, surviving the test of time and becoming a style of choice for many men. The side part is a simple yet versatile cut that can be styled for casual and formal situations. Offering a smart and sleek look, it’s also a great style to sport for the office that can be styled quickly in the mornings. To style the side part, you part your hair at the point where the side of your head meets the top, then proceed with brushing the hair away from the part on both sides. This classic style works best for men with thicker hair and oval or square face shapes. You can opt-in for a complex part created by a shaved line that delineates the top from the sides. Or you can further personalize it according to your style, making it look more modern or vintage by adjusting the length on the sides and where the taper starts.

 

Pompadour

A classic men’s hairstyle with a touch of modern sophistication, Long hair on top, brushed back using pomade or hair wax to create the signature sleek pomp. The pomp is often shaped from 3 to 5 inches of hair on top, but it can vary in size, with longer hair adding more volume to the style. Usually, the hair is kept longest in the front, gradually decreasing in length towards the back. The modern take on the pompadour incorporates a high fade for higher contrast, but you can also opt-in for a softer look with a taper haircut, depending on your style. If you’re unsure which version of the pompadour would look best, schedule a mobile haircut appointment with StylesGo hairstylists and barbers for a style consultation. Additionally, styling a pompadour requires good hair styling products with a relative stronghold that will help ensure it keeps its form all day.

 

Comb Over

The comb has a lousy reputation for covering baldness, but there is a younger and sharper way to wear this style. The comb-over does provide the appearance of more hair. By the way, the side-swept look creates volume, so it would still favor men experiencing thinning hair when appropriately styled. Being a classy and neat style that works well with most face shapes, the comb-over is a versatile hairstyle that can be sported to casual and formal occasions. A comb-over is also easy to style by parting the hair on the side and then brushing it back and to the side along with the hair’s natural growth, being careful not to flatten it too much. You’ll also want to avoid adding too much product, especially high-shine formulas that can make your hair appear greasy and heavy.


If you're still having a hard time choosing your haircut, schedule your next appointment with a StylesGo mobile hairstylist that can help you make the right decision. Get a haircut in the comfort of your home, hotel, or office from professional barbers and hairstylists near you.
