1. Undercut Hairstyle
Short on the sides, longer on top. That’s the essence of a classic undercut, which works with various styles of men’s hair (curly, wavy, straight, etc). You can sculpt the top hair as you see fit, slicking it back or spiking it up or anything in between.
From a general perspective, there are two overarching types of men’s undercuts: disconnected and faded. If you’ve seen Cillian Murphy’s handsome hairstyle in “Peaky Blinders,” then you know all about the disconnected undercut. It’s distinguished by a sharp contrast or clear divide between the shorter and longer hair.
2. Textured Pompadour Haircut
Here’s a top men’s haircut that seems like it should have gone out of style at some point, but never has. And if you think it looks dated, we’ll let you be the one to inform David Beckham, who’s no stranger to the pompadour. Of course, Elvis Presley remains the most iconic celebrity to rock this famous haircut, which has remained in vogue since the days of “Jailhouse Rock.”
Like an undercut or fade, the men’s pompadour generally features short hair on the sides and longer hair on top. What distinguishes this style from others is the healthy volume of swept-up hair at the front, which gradually recedes toward the back. Its popular cousin, the almighty quiff, strikes a similarly stylish accord.
