Men's haircuts with short sides
Popular men's hairstyles almost always have two characteristics: short temples and long frontal hair. The fact is that such a haircut model, of course, done correctly, makes a face of any shape more perfect.
Beauty and convenience
A men's haircut with short hair in the temporal zone is considered universal. After all, it can be worn by men of any age, with different hair structure and individual features of appearance. You can even create such a hairstyle on long strands, which makes it possible to experiment with styles.
The demanded style suits absolutely everyone, it provides for round, elongated and square skull shapes. If it is selected taking into account all the nuances, it allows you to visually hide existing flaws, smooth out sharp facial features, bringing the image closer to the ideal.
Most of all these hairstyles are relevant for young men who are businesslike and interested in sports, but then the ultra-short length of the top is assumed. Hair cut in this way does not require styling and always looks neat and effective. More complex, model options are suitable for young people who prefer fashionable and original clothes.
Adult men are closer to classic styles, people with an extraordinary mindset and adhering to a certain ideology, perhaps, retro hairstyles will be interesting.
Love for short haircuts is dictated by their merits, the main of which are:
- practicality - for the hair to look attractive, no complicated actions are required: the use of fixing agents, daily styling;
- the image of a man is inherent in laconicism, and short hair, with a minimum of effort, emphasizes masculinity, restraint and severity, that is, strong features of a masculine character;
- haircuts with short sides help to make curly hair more manageable and neat.
It is safe to say that this opinion is shared by the majority of the male half, and the only exceptions are creative individuals who are able to express themselves as they please and wear long hairstyles.
A short haircut is, in fact, the perfect cut for a man, however, it is very important that a smooth transition is made between the hair at the top and the short strands... Perhaps this is the main condition for the hairstyle to really look good.
That is why it is best to entrust the haircut procedure to an experienced master, and not try to do it yourself - the result can be disappointing.
Criteria for choosing a hairstyle
An organic look can be achieved by choosing the right haircut model. To do this, you should pay attention to some of the nuances.
- An oval face contour is considered ideal, but with its other forms, some proportions can be adjusted with the help of a short hairstyle. This is achieved using techniques such as thinning, thinning, grading, etc.
- The shape of the head is also important. If it is not geometrically perfect, then it is worth choosing styles with a longer hair length in the problem area. Often, the defect can be leveled by making the top larger or by adding volume in other places that require modeling.
- With healthy, straight and thick hair, you can choose any haircuts - multi-stage and graduated. Curly strands require a slightly different approach - for an ideal shape, you cannot leave hair on top longer or form bangs, and such a technique as torn edges will not work.
Do not forget about the style of clothing, because the hairstyle must match it. Business men are more suited to short classic options, while for young people and those whose profession is related to creativity, it is permissible to wear more catchy haircuts that provide for asymmetry, long back curls, and original forms.

Fashion trends tend to change, but some hairstyles continue to be popular and in demand. So it might be worth dwelling on the immortal trends that never go out of style.
Do I need to stack?
In principle, styling is not necessary for short hairstyles, since they themselves are capable of maintaining the shape of the haircut for a long time. But for some models, you still have to use gel or foam. This applies to styles with long hair combed up or to the side, while the temporal locks are cut short on the sides. By itself, such a form will not hold, so it is better to secure it with foam. Styling will also be needed if a man has one of the types of retro haircuts.
The need for fixation arises when the hair is straight and stiff. To make them more obedient, you can use a gel or varnish that allows you to fix the desired result for a long time.
Generally, fixing agents are used in different cases: so that the strands do not stick out, adhere to the head in the right direction, keep the hairstyle while creating a natural, creative mess.
