Below are listed 25 different names of hairstyles for men. These hairstyles are all ones that have been in style for years and will likely still be in style for years to come. Each hairstyle includes tips for the style and how to get your hair in that particular style.

So, are you ready to check these out? You won't regret cutting your hair into any of these styles below. And trust me guys, the females in your life will love love love your hair when you change it up into these different types of haircuts.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Temper Fade

The first haircut we'll discuss today is the temper fade. This style is totally cool and I'm sure you'll love it if you decide to try it out. I mean, look at the picture above! This guy looks really handsome, so of course you will too. 

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips. 

For the top of your head, your hair will be thicker and as it moves down, the hair will thin out, leaving you will a clean look. This is a haircut that will look professional and trendy at the same time. However, it is not one that is easily achieved on your own. You totally will need to go to a professional stylist for this look. But don't worry, it will be worth it. 

Different Type of Haircut Name: Buzz with Design

I'm going to be honest with this style in saying that not everybody can pull it off. However, if you can pull it off, you totally should! this style is unique and different and it really is a good way to express yourself. 

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

This style involves a pretty typical buzz cut, which means that your hair will be cut very close to your scalp. If you have experience with a buzz cut, this particular part is something that can be achieved at home. However, the design, which can range from anything to anything (I'm talking a simple stripe to the Superman logo), should probably be done by a professional. They have experience and the knowledge to know they are doing a good job, so you should probably just go ahead and trust them on it.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Low Fade

This next hair cut is the low fade. A low fade involves a little more fade than a temper fade, however it is not nearly as striking at the high fade. Just check out the picture above and compare the different fades for yourself.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

For the low fade, the upper part of your hair is longer than the hair at the base of your neck. The low fade begins lower on the scalp. As with all fades, the top is thicker and it gradually thins as it goes down. The hair at the top can be styled in any way that you desire, just as long as its longer, it can fit the category of a low fade. A lot of men choose to have their hair a decent amount longer at the top than the bottom, but you can always go for a shorter style up top. As with most of these haircuts that you will be reading about today, it is recommended that you go to a professional stylist when you decide that your hair needs cutting. It will make it easier and will be guaranteed to look better.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Hard Part

The hard part is a style that can go with many different hairstyles. The names of these styles include the buzz cut, a combover and even the pompadour. It looks good with a lot of hairstyles, but probably not all hairstyles.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

As mentioned above, the hard part looks good with the buzz cut, a combover and the pompadour. This style incorporates a normal hairstyle, with a slightly over exaggerated part. This part is often widened by your stylist to look more prominent and to be clean.

Different Type of Haircut Name: High Fade

Okay, we're back to another fade. The high fade introduces a more prominent fade than the low fade as it starts higher on the scalp.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

For the high fade, thick hair is left at the top of the head. This hair can be styled to your desire; it can be long or short, whatever you wish. As mentioned above, this style starts higher on the scalp and by the time it reaches your neck, it is cut very thin (but not as thin as a bald fade). Again, go to a professional to get this look.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Messy Undercut with Beard

The messy undercut with a beard is a very specific style, but it looks so good! Trust me, the females in your life will love it!

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

An undercut is very high on the scalp and all the hair is one length (unlike a fade). However, much like the fade, the hair on top is much longer. For this particular style, the hair is messy and your hair on your head connects to a full beard. This style is hot and again, is one that should be done by a professional, though you may be able to achieve the beard all by yourself, though a tip from a barber on how to maintain it can't hurt.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Temple Fade

A temple fade haircut is one where the fade starts at, you guessed it, your temples. This is a great hairstyle that is a little bit different than the rest of the styles.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

For this style, the rest of your hair is thick and can be styled in any way you please. The hair around the temples is just cut a little shorter and gets thicker as it moves towards the back of your head. This just involves a very small amount of fade as the rest of your hair is thick and styled. Again, go to a professional for this cut if you want it to look as good at the guy in the picture above.

Different Type of Haircut Name: French Crop

When is the last time you visited your barber? 💈: @xhriiiis 🇪🇸

A post shared by Redken Brews (@barbersandbrews) on

A French crop brings a little European energy into play. As you'll notice, none of the other names of haircuts on this list have this inspiration behind it. The females in your life will love this style and they'll want you to keep it this way forever!

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

This style is a little mix between a crew cut and a fringe cut. Your hair is cut short, but incorporates some longer strands of hair that hang slightly over your forehead when not styled. They can be pushed totally back or creatively and stylishly allowed to creep over your forehead. There is a fine line between fringe and bangs, so try not to cross that.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Bald Fade

The bald fade has its name because by the time your reach the base of your neck, it will seem as though you have no hair there. While that description of it may be worrying, trust me, this hairstyle is totally cool and you will love it if you decide to try it out.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

Your hair will typically be a bit shorter at the top of your head when compared to other fade hairstyles. As you move down, your hair will fade until your hair is very thin and does not seem like there is practically any hair there. This is a style that really is best achieved by a professional, so make sure to make an appointment before you try this style out.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Top Knot

A top knot is similar to a man bun, though it is usually styled with a fade or undercut hairstyle where the hair on top is just long enough to be pulled into a small knot.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

As mentioned above. This style mixed a couple different names of haircuts like the undercut/fade and a man bun. This is a good style for athletes as you can keep your hair out of your face and off your neck when getting sweaty, but still look good.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Afro Fade

An afro fade is a hairstyle that mixes a typical high or mid fade with an afro hairstyle. Check out the picture above for the best idea of what this style looks like.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

This style leaves thick hair on top and is popular among men with afro curls. The hair under the thick hair fades to the bottom of the scalp. Again, this is best done by a professional stylist.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Man Bun

This is a simple style. Just grow your hair out long enough to pull it into a bun and there you have it. No professional required, just start growing and washing your hair.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Undercut

The undercut is a very popular style among men. It is similar to a fade, but the hair is all one length under the longer top hair.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

As mentioned, the undercut involves longer top hair and hair below that has been significantly thinned. The specific style of this hair cut is up to you as there are many different options to choose from. This is another style that should be handled by a professional and while you are there you should probably ask for some general tips so you can keep it looking as good as it did when you first got it done.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Spiky

Spiky hair is a haircut that has been in style for so long and I love it! The females in your life will love it too. You may want to give this style some fancy names, but the basic thing to understand is that your hair is soft and spiky and it will always look good.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

This is a casual hairstyle that has been altered to make it look like you've actually spent time on it. Just short out your hair into simple spikes. Don't think they have to be solid and defined spikes (leave that in the 90s, please), but rather soft and simple spikes. Use cream or gel to achieve this look.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Pompadour

This haircut is dramatic and will totally make you stand out in a crowd. The females in your life will love it and overall you will just look great.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

A pompadour is a style that was popularized by Elvis Presley and has just continued to be in style for years and years, so there is no doubt it will stay in style for a long time. This haircut incorporates a large chunk of hair that gracefully flows over the top of the head and stands up slightly and has slightly shorter hair along the sides. Again, make sure to go to a professional for this style.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Side Part

A side part is a simple element of many different styles of haircuts. These names include a combover, an undercut, and slicked back style.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

This is so simple. Comb your hair to this side. This is a neat and classy style that will give you a professional look with boyish charm.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Disconnected Pompadour

A disconnected pompadour is obviously similar to the traditional pompadour, however the hair on top is separated from the rest of your hair. This gives the traditional look a little 21st century update. The females in your life will love it and you will too.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

This is a style that totally involves going to a professional to get it right. The swirled, longer part of your hair is typically separated through either a hard part or even a fade. This gives the pompadour a slightly more voluminous effect as well as making you stand out and look great.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Fringe

Fringe, which in this case is not to be confused for the British English word for bangs, is a messy and simple hairstyle that everyone should try out. 

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

Fringe is very similar to traditional bangs, however, they typically have more style and are NEVER meant to hang straight down. Brush them to the side or leave them hanging unruly over your forehead by use of gel or cream. Great for those with naturally messy hair that like to keep it that way, but also want to keep it clean and styled.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Quiff

If you like big hair, this is the style for you. This style incorporates a lot of hair on top that stands up nice and tall and it looks great. However it does involve a lot of gel or cream so be prepared to purchase some. The females in your life will love the quiff as it adds more style and is more daring than the pompadour.
 

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

For the style, cut your hair in a way where it is longer on top and shorter near the base of your neck. Use a lot of cream or gel. Like, a lot. Style your hair in a way that it sticks up but is also brushed back. It’ll be high off of your head and it would look great, trust me.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Faux Hawk

The faux hawk, not to be confused with a mohawk, is a style that you don’t have to keep all the time. Because of this, it creates a versatile look that can be paired well with the fringe look on the days you choose not to go for the faux hawk. This is the style that has been in style for a very long time and it will continue to be in style for a very long time going forward.


If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.
 

For the style, all you have to do is leave a lot of hair on top of your head. Make your hair stand up and make it look like a mohawk. For this style, use your gel or hair cream to make it look right. This is a cool look that you will love. No matter what the name for it is, the faux hawk or mohawk will always look good.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Combed Over

When you think of a combover, you’re probably picturing an old man with thinning hair, but that’s not what this is. This is a very 21st century style that will continue to be in style for a very long time judging by how popular it has become. The ladies in your life will love it.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Crew Cut

The crew cut is likely a style you’ve heard of before. This is the style that is popular with anyone who does physical work or works outside as it keeps your hair short, out of your face, it is totally simple. A crewcut is a haircut that leaves a little more hair on the top of your head as compared to the hair near your neck. It’s longer than a buzz cut is, but it is short and a little pointy. This is a great style for hot weather.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

This is a popular hairstyle as it is easy to achieve, and if you are particularly good with scissors, you can even achieve it at home. However,  that is not something I would recommend to be perfectly honest. A professional is always the safe route to go.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Slicked Back

Slicked back hair type makes you look professional and mature. It is a style that will never go out of style. It looks great on basically everyone, so you should definitely try it out if you are looking for something new.

This hairstyle is pretty self-explanatory. As the name suggests, it is slicked back hair. For this style, use gel or cream for the best look. It is a common hairstyle among those of higher status as, as mentioned above, it makes you look professional and mature. If you need any tips for the style make sure to talk to a professional as they do know how to help you out.

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.

This hairstyle is so simple, I doubt I even have to explain it, however I will anyways. The length of your hair in this style is very short, practically nonexistent in some cases. However, at the center of your scalp, it should be very so slightly longer than the rest of your hair to create dimension. This is great for anyone who doesn't want to spend a lot of time on their hair.

Different Type of Haircut Name: Mid Fade

Last but not least, the mid fade. This style is similar to all the other fades, only the fade starts, you guessed it, in the middle of your head and gradually fades as it moves down. 

If you are thinking about cutting your hair into this style, follow these tips.
 

This is a common hairstyle among the other fade styles. It is probably the most popular of them all. You start with longer hair on the top and the fade starts near the middle of the head and gets lighter as you go down. You will definitely need to go to professional for this look. The style will make you look groomed but will keep you on the simpler side of hairstyles.

Before You Go
