Keeping up with the latest trends in hairstyles is not easy. All it takes is one celebrity to change things up and the next thing you know everyone has to have their hair look that way.
A thing that goes overlooked is pairing your facial hair with the latest trends in hairstyles.
Vintage hairstyles
Like all things vintage, haircuts from eras in the past are making a comeback including celebrities such as Tom Hardy. In this look, the hair is straight and works very well with thicker hair. To make this look work, you keep the sides short and taper them to your neck and facial hair. You can use hair gel if you want to keep your hair in place. If you’re looking to accentuate your new look with facial hair, you can add a few weeks of scruff which will give you an even older/vintage vibe to your appearance.
The hipster
Arguably the most popular haircut right now is the one you see on many hipsters. This is definitely a look that will gather attention from everyone. Like the vintage look mentioned above, you keep the sides short or even a medium length depending on the look that you want to achieve. The big difference about this haircut is that you want at least three inches on top and then the hair is styled into the pomp. Blow-drying this look will get you body and volume if you are feeling ambitious. Having a less than full Beard Trimmer works very well with this look a la James Franco.
Longer cuts
Not only are shorter cuts coming back into fashion but longer cuts are making a comeback as well. The obvious benefit of having a longer cut is that you don’t have to spend a lot of time styling it.
This look is harder to achieve because it takes a while to grow and you may be tempted to give it a new look but if you get past this temptation you can get a look that gathers a lot of positive attention. This look also works with all types of hair thick, thin and everywhere in between. However, it is important to keep an eye on your hair so that it does not get too long, shoulder-length should be the limit. Another benefit of this look is that having a full beard works very well with the look. The full beard gives a rugged and masculine look to this hairstyle.
The James Bond
If you’re looking for a look that screams sophistication and class then the haircut that everyone’s favorite secret agent is the one for you. The obvious drawback of this look is that it requires more maintenance than other looks but will give you a look of sophistication that other cuts cannot match. This style is much easier to create with fine and straight hair. Like other styles, it has shorter sides and blends into the top. You then texture and layer to the classy look you are looking for. To keep up with the classy look, you will need to be clean-shaven. Art of Shaving pre-shave oil is a great way to achieve this classy, sophisticated look.
Lumberjack
A look that works around facial hair is a style that goes by many names including the lumberjack, mountain man, and so on. Many celebrities and average citizens alike are growing their beards long; which is not only trendy but serves a purpose as temperatures get cooler. A simple square haircut goes well with this look, nothing fancy is needed here.
Hairstyles go in and out of fashion very quickly, and keeping up with them can be difficult.
However, the most important thing when deciding on a look is to make it work for you. Getting the right combination of facial hair to match your hairstyle can be difficult but if you wear your look with confidence you will get positive reactions.
