Sure, it can be fun to follow the latest trends in men’s barber haircuts, but when we think of timeless and effortless styles, we think of the haircuts that have been around. These styles never seem to go out of fashion. If you are finding it difficult to pick a haircut that will keep you looking stylish, we have got you covered. We will show you a few classic haircuts that will keep you looking good for a long time!
The pompadour was first popularized in France in the 18th century when it became a fashionable fashion statement for all genders. It is characterized by heavily combed hair at the top that points up and away from the face and noticeably shorter hair on the sides. The pompadour is making a comeback in modern times, notably observed on Elvis Presley during the 1950s.
Men with round, oval, and triangle face shapes are advised to play around with this haircut at the barber because it fits well with their facial features.
The buzzcut is a classic look. However, you really need to have the confidence to make it work. The tool (clippers) used to achieve this look is named after it. If a total buzzcut seems excessive, there are other options. You want a shape that is somewhat squared off at the sides and has a little extra length at the top.
It is highly recommended to use the Pankhurst technique, which involves using scissors over a comb instead of using clippers alone. Cutting allows you to work with the head’s shape to achieve a more attractive overall cut.
From the 1920s through the 1940s and 1950s to more modern incarnations, the side part has been one of the most iconic barber haircuts. It can be styled in ultra-refined or texturized ways to highlight its beauty and potential to give you a youthful or mature appearance. How you handle the cut is really important. Longer top proportions and shorter sides work nicely for a modern look. Shorter hair can be used to create a side part if you want a more structured look.
Matte surfaces give a contemporary edge, while glossy finishes evoke nostalgia. For modern males, the side part is an excellent haircut option regardless of their face shape.
In the 1920s, the modern, slick back initially gained popularity, and many asked for this haircut at the barber. Having hair that would stay in place when donning a hat—which was considered a status symbol and a class indicator in the early 20th century—was helpful at the time. It has since become an enduring classic. For this, straight hair works best because it is more difficult to correctly slick back hair with more curls.
This style works well on a variety of face shapes because it makes facial features—like mustaches and beards—more noticeable while the hair essentially frames the face.
