MEN'S HAIRSTYLES
Not all men's hairstyles are the same. Although all hairstyles tend to be short, there are some differences between the various men's hairstyles. We show you which men's hairstyles there are and who these hairstyles suit best. Factors such as head shape and hair types have an influence on choosing the perfect hairstyle. But a man's hairstyle is all about determining what type of man you want to be, because all hairstyles make a certain statement.
Classic men's hairstyle
In addition to all the men's hairstyles mentioned above, which are sometimes trendy and sometimes not, there is also the classic men's hairstyle. It's not that it's less trendy; it's just that it's not as easy to categorise. The contours of this hairstyle are kept short and from there a flow is cut to the hair on top of the head. There are many variations of this hairstyle. It can be individually adapted to the shape of your head and your vertebrae. Therefore, we can recommend this classic variation to all men.
Styling the classic men's hairstyle
The perfect styling product for this hairstyle is a hair wax. If you like it a little firmer, you can also use a gel. The hair is either styled slightly backwards or wildly mixed up, depending on the shape of the twirl. Make sure that you distribute the hair product evenly throughout your hair. Then you can shape the hair as desired.
Medium length and long hair
Men's hairstyles have become wilder again. Hair is being worn longer again more often. For this, the hair should be somewhat voluminous, full and not too straight. This way, the hair falls naturally to the side and can also be worn casually backwards.
With receding hairlines and thin hair, this style unfortunately looks unkempt. Medium-length hair worn open can make the face look more elongated. If you like to wear your hair pulled back, you will emphasise the shape of your head. If you have a round face or a high forehead, medium-length, tied-up hair is not ideal.
Long hair is also suitable for business. This men's hairstyle looks particularly good with three-day beards. Make sure the transition is smooth.
Hair care medium length to long hair
Medium length hair requires a little more care than short hair. The hair needs to be cut regularly because of the risk of split ends. You should also use a rich shampoo and conditioner and a hair mask in between. Hair oils are also ideal for the care of medium-length hair. Apply a little hair oil to towel-dried lengths and ends.
By the way: Rich care products such as conditioners, masks and hair oils never belong on the roots. Shampoo the roots well and apply all other products only to the lengths and tips. You can also intensify the effectiveness of the mask by combing the hair with a coarse comb when the mask is on the hair.
Care products
Styling medium to long hair
With a good, fresh haircut, no further or little styling is needed. After showering, the hair should be blow-dried dry or at least blow-dried a little. If the hair is wet for too long, the hair bridges inside the hair can be destroyed. If you have wavy hair, you can smooth it out with a paddle brush while blow-drying. If you need a little more volume in your hair, we recommend adding some mousse to your hair.
Business style: Use hair gel and hairspray to style the longer top hair backwards. You can also use a matt wax product if you don't want any shine in your hair. If you don't want to look too "licked" and like it more casual, you can let a few strands fall into your face.

Man Bob
A special form of medium-length hair is the Man Bob. The so-called man bob, where the hair is cut to shoulder length, is absolutely trendy. It's not without reason that we see celebrities walking down the red carpet with the Man Bob, making women's hearts beat faster with this casual hairstyle. The man bob looks especially good on men with a full, slightly longer beard. The special thing about this hairstyle is that the hair is cut to one length. This makes it look fuller and more voluminous. This haircut is therefore also suitable for somewhat finer hair.
Bro Flow
The men's hairstyle bro flow was somewhat forgotten. But thanks to Hollywood stars, the men's hairstyle is back in fashion: it is medium-length hair with a skilfully styled wave. If you want to wear the Bro Flow, you need a little patience, because this men's hairstyle requires a certain hair length. Only then should you have your hair shaped by a hairdresser. A good cut is important here, so be sure to bring pictures with you to your hairdresser or make sure that the hairdresser is well versed in men's hairstyles.
Styling the Bro Flow: When it comes to styling, it all depends on whether you are more of a curly or straight hair type. How do you get the Bro Flow into perfect shape? A little gel and styling cream, a few strands that fall down the front of your face and the Bro Flow style is finished. It's important to keep the style casual at all times. Rub the hair product well between your hands and distribute it evenly throughout your hair. Only then pluck out the front strands. To simplify styling, it is important to style the hair into the desired shape while blow-drying. If necessary, you can also use a skeleton brush.
Man Bun - the man bun!
Women love it - the man bun! This men's hairstyle is very trendy again. Styling it is quick and easy. You don't need much more than longer hair down to the chin and a hair tie for this men's hairstyle. Moreover, no other hairstyle can conceal bad hair days as charmingly as the man bun. However, not all man buns are the same. There are different ways you can wear the man bun.
Sleek chignon: The sleek chignon is the classic, elegant variation in which the bun is tied up nicely. The hair is pulled back tightly and tied into a rather severe chignon. For the sleek look, you can add some hair gel to the hair.
Messy Man Bun: The Messy Man Bun is worn in an undone look. Instead of a perfectly styled chignon, this variation is a loosely tied bun. The hair can be pulled back less tightly. The trick is to make the bun look as if it has been tied together by chance. A few strands of hair can be a little crosswise and stick out of the hair tie.
Half bun: The half bun is worn in combination with an undercut. In other words, the sides are cut short and only the top hair is long and gathered into a chignon.
Styling the Man Bun
For easy styling, the hair should be slightly wavy. To do this, work a little mousse into the hair after washing it. Then blow dry the hair upside down. Styling powder can help to make the hair look nice and wispy and undone.
Pompadour
The Pompadour is an urban men's hairstyle hit for extravagant and style-conscious men! And not just recently, because the pompadour is an absolute perennial favourite. This men's hairstyle is extremely versatile, looks modern and masculine. This hairstyle suits almost every man. It looks best on men with oval or square faces. Only long faces or a high forehead can be emphasised by the pompadour and thus made even more visible. The pompadour also goes perfectly with a shorter beard.
Styling the Pompadour
The pompadour is easy to style. After washing your hair, you can add a little volume mousse to the top hair.
Sleek Look: With hair gel, the pompadour quickly becomes a sleek look. How do you style the Sleek Look? It's easy. Rub the hair gel well between the palms of your hands, distribute it evenly in the top hair and comb it back without parting it. The hair should not stick together! The hair can also be fixed with a hairspray.
Who looks particularly good with the Sleek Look?
Men who have a prominent face can emphasise it with the Sleek Look. In addition, men should have straight hair or slightly wavy hair for this hairstyle. Wavy hair should already be styled backwards when blow-drying to make the look more successful.
Bowl Cut
The bowl cut, also known as a pot or mushroom haircut, was an absolute must-have hairstyle for men in the 60s. Anyone who remembers old pictures of the Beatles knows why they were also affectionately called mushroom heads. The Beatles wore the bowl cut in the early 60s. The retro cut is back on the catwalks and has conquered the heads of trendsetters. Who does the bowl cut suit? Almost everyone - but men with a round face shape should keep their hands off it.
Buzzcut, Clipper or Military Cut
Men who want a low-maintenance hairstyle are very well served with the buzzcut. You don't have to blow-dry your hair for a long time or style it in a complicated way. With the buzzcut, the hair is shaved ultra-short to one hair length. So this is definitely a hairstyle that you can cut yourself at home without any problems.
The hair should not be longer than 10mm. The buzz cut is not cut with scissors, but with clippers - hair clippers. That's why this men's hairstyle is also known as the Clipper Cut. Especially with thick hair, it is important to invest some money in a high-quality clipper. Cheap models often don't capture all the hair or don't cut the hair to one length despite the attachment, which looks unattractive and unkempt.
Of course, there are also variations in this men's hairstyle. For example, the upper hair can remain a few millimetres longer and fuller.
The hair clippers can be adjusted to the desired hair length (usually from 0.5 millimetres to 2 or 3 centimetres). You can then blend the longer top section so that there is no transition to the short sides. If you don't want to cut all your hair to the same length, however, you should let a professional do your hair.
Whether you have thin, thick, straight or wavy hair, the Clipper Cut is suitable for all hair types because it cuts the hair evenly.
HAIR CLIPPERS

It's no surprise that this look is catching on, after all, it suits all kinds of men. This men's hairstyle is uncomplicated and only requires that the man has a certain amount of top hair.
With the spiky hair look, the hair on the sides is shorter than the top hair. The hair should be at least three centimetres long at the top of the head so that you can style it spiky upwards. The ends of the hair can point in different directions or converge into a single point in the middle of the face.
Styling the Spiky Hair

Be sure to distribute the gel evenly through your hair. If you want to give the look a little longer hold, you'll also need hairspray.
