Whether you need a complete style upheaval or a simple grooming upgrade, nothing says “Hello summer!” like a new and improved you. Refresh your look this summer by reshaping your hair in a way that is guaranteed to make heads turn.

In 2019 we have seen a significant change in the way that men style their hair. This summer, haircuts will continue to favour either a messy or military style. Below is a guide to the best hairstyles for gentlemen this summer.

The Faded Undercut

Creating a contrast in length between the top of your hair and the sides is one of the major trends of 2019. Faded undercuts add volume to your hairstyle and provide an opportunity for individuality and customisation. You can opt to have the sides taken down to a skin fade or a low fade; can wear your hair curly or straight; can leave the top as long as you’d like, and can choose to have a distinctive or slight disconnection.

 

Messy Bob

Without grooming, long hair becomes an undesired mess that can make men look dishevelled in appearance. However, through careful attention and layering, barbers have perfected the messy bob: allowing a mid-length-cut to appear effortless and stylish. By cutting layers that shape your face, and ensuring the weight of your hair is evenly distributed, a messy bob can often be left to its own devices until your next cut.

 

Textured Fringe

Fringes have previously been viewed as features of the past, however, with gentle improvement they have made their way back as a major trend of 2019. Unlike bowl cuts or side sweeps, the textured crop is a combination of short back and sides and a lengthened top. By allowing gravity to play a part on your hair, you can achieve a natural, but structured, hairstyle.

 

Tapered High and Tight

If you are looking for a shorter hairstyle that is not quite a buzz cut, then a tapered high and tight hairstyle is perfect. It involves a short top with slightly shorter back and sides. Short hair can help keep you cool in summer and requires limited maintenance.

 

Buzz Cut

Buzz cuts have increased in popularity throughout 2019. They allow men with prominent features (such as chiselled bone structure and pleasantly proportioned heads) to show them off in a more defined and structured way.
