5/21/2016 5 Men’s Hairstyles for SummerIt’s almost time to shed the pea coats and beanies in favor of sunglasses and a fresh haircut. Summer is my favorite time of year because you can rock short and trendy haircuts without freezing your butt off. Here is some hairstyle ideas for summer 2016.
Fashion trends and hairstyles waltz in and out of trend cyclically, but some styles are pure classics and we just never seem to tire of them. Short hairstyles for men who appreciate neat and well maintained slick appearance are part of that timeless look.
The good thing about short haircuts? Any man can pull off convincingly. Short on the sides and back and a little bit longer on top is such a simple cut that almost every man out there has tried it at some point or the other. And it suits the majority, which is why so many blokes (including myself) stick with it forever. But that’s not to say getting a short hairstyle is easy or that you can’t get it wrong. The drawback to such simplicity is the fact that a wrongly done short hairstyle could come off as bland or boring. To avoid this you need a stylish cut that complements your face, suits your hair texture and allows you to look good with low maintenance - unless you don’t mind spending time on hairstyling. Which is why I put together this guide that will walk you through all the different short hairstyles you can go for and the things you need to consider when making your decision. Things to consider for a short hairstyle: Head Shape: Round, Square, Oblong, Heart, Triangular, Oval, Diamond Type of Hair: Straight or Curly Hair, Thinning Hair Required maintenance and frequency Products that you need/can use to maintain the style Picking the best short hairstyle and styling it Click here for the rest of the in-depth article and go-to guide for your new haircut. Here's a quick Go-To Guide for hairstyles according to your face shape. When you’re at the salon, what do you talk about? If you’re like most people, you probably spend the first 2-3 minutes explaining what you want your hair to look like before digressing into a story about your boyfriend/girlfriend or the latest celebrity gossip. Your hairdresser probably knows a lot about your favorite celebs, and he may give out great relationship advice, but his area of expertise is hair, and you might be surprised what he can tell you about yours. The trick is knowing what to ask. Here are 5 must-ask questions to bring to your next appointment. –– Laura Martin
1. What type of hair do I have? You probably think you know the answer to this one, but you may be surprised. What you think is frizz might be curl that you’ve never learned to work with; what you think is oiliness might be product build up. It’s also easy to confuse “fine” (small individual strands) with “thin” (low density of strands). 2. How often should I be shampooing and/or conditioning? I know you’ve probably read a bunch of articles debating this issue, but the truth is there’s no one answer that’s true for everyone. The answer depends on your chemical history, hair type, and texture. Your stylist will help you figure out what’s best for your individual head of hair. 3. What is my one, must-have styling product? You probably have a shelf full of styling aides in your bathroom, but how often do you use them? Wouldn’t it be great to have one go-to product and know exactly how to use it? Just ask. 4. What’s an easy style I can do on my own for that upcoming wedding/party/etc.? It’s fun to watch styling videos on YouTube, but the best way to learn a new hairdo is by receiving personalized instruction from your hair pro. Your stylist knows you’re a walking advertisement for her work and she’d be happy to give you a quick lesson. 5. If I gave you free reign, what would you do with my hair? Asking this question doesn’t mean you have to let your stylist go wild on your mane, but it will give you some insight into her creativity and possibly suggest something you’d be open to but never considered. Besides, you can pick and choose from what she says; maybe you don’t want to cut off five inches, but those face-framing highlights sound great. Special thanks to Laura Martin for this post.
