Cool Men’s Hairstyles for 2018

January 12, 2018by admin

Here are our predictions for the upcoming men’s hairstyles for next year. These 2018 trends are based on popular looks that are gaining traction, European hair trends that are making their way to North America and styles that are trending online.

Short hair cut and styled to enhance texture has been big in 2017 and will keep going strong next year. In fact texture is being added to all kinds of haircuts and styles. Taper haircuts will also keep getting more popular for short, longer and curly hair. Along those lines, we are seeing more medium length hair in all kinds of styles.

With longer hair means more styling options. On the one hand, pompadour-inspired styles are huge because they look great and are easy to style. On the other side of the spectrum, messy looks are back in a big way. For a totally unexpected look, check out the newest men’s haircut, neckline hair designs.

Picking the best trend for you depends on hair type, face shape and styling time and ability. Find your favorites and then chat with your barber about how to make it work for you. Try to find pictures of guys with a similar hair type in terms of thickness and texture. Now, on to the cool men’s hairstyles for 2018.

A. Short + Texture

1. Textured Crop

The textured crop is a fresh, modern look that works for most hair types. It can lighten up thick hair, bulk up fine or thin hair and is a natural fit for guys with wavy and curly hair.

2. Crop + Fringe

The textured crop can have short or longer fringe cut blunt or worn to one side. This version is the latter on both counts with angled bangs halfway down the forehead.

3. Messy Short Crop

This crop cut and style works for guys with fine or thinner hair or even a receding hairline. Layering, texture and messy styling add so much fullness to the allover look.

6. Side Part Hairstyle

The taper haircut trend is a reaction to the popularity of the fade. Fades aren’t out yet but if you want something different, try this classic scissor-cut style.

7. Red Hair Color + Taper

Many taper haircuts are styled into a slick style with side part but other options include short spikes, curls or this side swept look. It’s a great men’s hairstyle with or without bold color.

8. Taper Haircut for Curly Hair

This style also works for curly hair and is no more work to style than a fade.

14. Heavy Crop + Mid Fade

This cool cut contrasts a longer, heavier version of the crop with a mid fade to make hair appear even thicker and more textured on top.

15. Textured Bangs

Another stylist pendulum swing is hair worn forward in bangs instead of slicked back. This long crop with tons of texture features full on fringe at the front and a fade at the back.
