You can create a “hat” on medium, short hair, with or without bangs, symmetrically or asymmetrically. It is very important to choose the most successful variation, taking into account the structure of the strands, features of the face, the shape of the head.

The times when this type of haircut was unromanticly called "under the pot" and everyone who wore it looked the same are long gone. In the price list of the hairdressing salon, this hairstyle was called "Voyage". Today, this model is performed in a slightly different way - in different more stylish interpretations, but the shape of the rounded type is preserved. There are characteristic features of the haircut that distinguish the "hat" from others:

• milled - here the strands are actively milled at all length levels;
• double - has two levels: at the crown and at the level of the earlobes;
• multi-layered - ideal for curly men;
• with a smooth transition - the layers are cut with gradual transitions so that the silhouette is as soft as possible;
• with a sharp transition - here the layers are cut so that the transitions stand out clearly, the silhouette is pronounced.

• Short. This is a rather rare type of haircut, it is not easy to perform it, but it is possible. This hairstyle is more in demand among young and very young males. Most often, it is necessary to grow the strands a little so that the formation of the "cap" becomes possible.
• Average. This is an easier task for the wizard, since this option is the most common. There are several execution possibilities here, it all depends on the structure of the strands and the type of face. You can make layered, asymmetrical, smooth, crisp variations.
• Long. Elongated models look quite impressive, there are many options. This hairstyle requires constant care and daily styling.

The male version of the haircut is quite versatile, since there are practically no face types that it does not suit. For any shape, status, style, age, you can choose the optimal type of haircut. Stylists believe that this hairstyle is most suitable for men with soft facial features, smooth. Occupation is unimportant, this hairstyle can be seen on businessmen, office workers, celebrities.If you don't like messing around with styling, this hairstyle is worth considering.

As for the shape of the face, you can experiment with interpretations of the haircut:

• an elongated face will look advantageous with shortened strands in the crown area; it is better to leave lengthening on the sides, so you will make the face more proportional;
• a round face will be given clarity by a model with shortened strands at the temples, bangs are required, and it can be side or combed;
• the triangle will correct the elongated bangs to one side, such a hairstyle on bearded men will look especially impressive;
• too prominent cheekbones will be hidden by an elongated hairstyle with bangs;
• men with an oval face can choose any modification.

Be sure to consider the structure of the strands. A hairstyle is suitable for thick and thin curls, but too coarse hair is not the best base for forming such haircuts.

"Hat" has female and children's interpretations, but they differ little from each other.

Adult men are given more stylized, showy options than boys. At the same time, careless, creative modifications are not suitable for men of respectable professions, businessmen.

"Hat" is a great option for a boy. Today children's haircuts are experiencing a real boom, every year stylists offer more and more new hairstyle options. The days when all children had the same haircut are over. A haircut-hat for children has been relevant since Soviet times; if it harmoniously fits into the style of the child and he likes it, you can safely experiment, especially since the care for the hairstyle is minimal.

This is the most popular option in modern hairdressing. This haircut will be ideal for those with thin curls, as it gives the hairstyle an optical volume.

Features of a smooth transition:

• caring for such a model is as simple as possible;
• if the strands are thick, lush, it will be difficult to form the necessary silhouette, and such a magnificent "hat" will go to very few people;
• great for curly strands;
• a universal option, which is most often offered in hairdressing salons;
• it is worth choosing this haircut for persons with simple Slavic features, since clear silhouettes will forgive him;
• the length and degree of smoothness of the transition are selected individually.

If you have certain skills, you can form a "hat" yourself, not in the salon. To do this, you need to prepare:

• straight type scissors;
• thinning tool;
• frequent toothed comb;
• a typewriter.

Haircut algorithm:

• strands should be washed with shampoo, combed, but not dried;
• the hair is divided in two in the direction from lobe to lobe;
• the area in the back of the head is formed using a typewriter;
• then you should work it out with scissors, creating the desired contour;
• if the haircut is unconventional, the formation of the frontal and temporal zones will take time and attention;
• depending on the degree of sharpness in the back, a transition is formed from the area trimmed with a machine to the main "hat";
• define the control strand, set the required length;
• form the rest of the strands depending on the task: longer or shorter;
• bangs can be made on the forehead in any variation: asymmetrical, torn, even;
• if there are no bangs, then the forehead is simply formed along the length of the main part;
• at the final stage, the strands are milled as deep as you want;
• the traditional modification of the "cap" is not milled.

The most important advantage of a man's "hat" is the absence of complicated daily styling. Routine hair care is enough: regular shampooing and conditioner. If you have conceived non-traditional types of haircuts (with extended bangs, torn ends and other delights), you will have to devote time to styling. You will also need special tools:

• wax;
• mousse;
• gel;
• foam.

Tips for styling a traditional haircut:

• use a brush when drying the strands;
• direct her curls towards the face or the opposite - at will;
• remember that the usual "hat" can be laid asymmetrically, but the asymmetrical version cannot be made traditional;
• lift the hat on top of the head with styling products;
• the effect of wet strands looks great on such a hairstyle.

The elongated uneven bangs will give the "hat" effect and correct facial features.

Long strands provide more styling options, but the hairstyle becomes more difficult to care for.

A medium-length "hat" is the most demanded option.

The smooth transition looks very beautiful, effective and stylish.

A sharp transition creates a clear outline in the hairstyle, you should be more careful and take into account the shape of the face.

On a short length, you can create this type of hairstyle if the strands are not too short.
