Youth men’s haircuts for the spring-summer 2017 season

In the coming season, vivid masculinity and severity will be in fashion, and in order to be in trend, you will have to abandon everything “metrosexual”. This means restraint in hairstyles: long bangs, styling and other attributes of last year’s fashion need to be ruthlessly discarded.

A fashionable hairstyle in 2019 is a short haircut without a hint of femininity, but creativity and style are welcome. The basic basis can be a classic haircut with bangs, as well as all kinds of “army” haircuts in military style.

Sports haircuts with combing back, cap hairstyles are also in fashion.

Mostly, the machine is used for such hairstyles as boxing, semi-boxing and other varieties. The machine is also used for cutting hair..

Sports

Short haircuts for men became fashionable about half a century ago because of their practicality and convenience. For athletes who move a lot, long hair causes inconvenience, and they were forced to cut their hair short. Subsequently, the benefits of short hairstyles were appreciated by the rest of the men.

Sports haircuts in their appearance resemble military-style hairstyles. Such species include boxing, semi-boxing, hedgehog and Canadian. “Hedgehog” – evenly cut hair up to 40 mm high. “Boxing” – the hair on the temples and on the sides is cut short, and at the crown their length is up to 40 mm. “Half box” – the hair on the temples and on the sides is cut short, on the top of their hair reaches 60-80 mm.

Men’s haircut Canadian differs from “boxing” and “half-boxing” in that the hair length in the bangs range from 50 to 100 mm, the bangs have the shape of a roller. For such styling you will need a gel. “Canada” looks better on thick hair. This option is also suitable for curly hair..

Catalog of haircuts that are fashionable this season

Nalyso

A cleanly shaved head adorns far from all men – not everyone has a skull shape that is close to perfect. In addition, the lack of hair makes facial defects more noticeable. But this hairstyle has its own strengths – it absolutely does not need care, in the summer the hair does not “soar”. Haircut “bald” – a forced option for balding men (see photo below).

Nalyso

  • Haircut is done on dry hair. If they are too long, they are pre-shortened with scissors or a machine.
  • Next, the haircut is done with a machine, starting from the back of the head and towards the forehead.
  • To cut the hair evenly, you need to cut them with “overlap” (intersecting stripes).
  • The height of the knife for clipping “bald” – from 3 to 1 mm.
  • The remaining single hairs are cut with scissors, and the cannon hair with a safety razor.

Hedgehog

Haircut hedgehog

Hairstyle “hedgehog” is more suitable for men with a rigid hair structure and oval face. If the hair is soft, a gel or mousse will shape the hairstyle. The hairstyle scheme is as follows: on the sides and on the back of the head, the hair is short, and at the top, the hair that has undergone thinning forms a kind of platform. The strands are directed in different directions, which gives the haircut dynamism and negligence.

Beaver

Beaver

This hairstyle resembles a hedgehog hairstyle to many – the hair is cut short on the sides, and the hairline of the upper part of the head has a length of 40 mm or more. The main difference of the “beaver” is that the site is not located on the entire upper part of the head, but only near the crown of the head.

Playground and Tennis

Area

Tennis hairstyle appeared for the first time among tennis athletes who, not wanting to part with hair, hid it under a cap. On the sides, the hair is very short, and the hair length at the top of the head is 50 mm. A longer length is allowed, but in this case, you will have to use mousse or gel to shape the hair.

“Playground” refers to complex types of hairstyles – gently cutting hair in the form of a flat area is not easy. Haircut begins with combing the hair up, then the side hair is cut and reduced to the bottom “under zero”. The upper hair must be cut so that from the forehead and to the back of the head, the hair forms a flat area.

Classic

Classic men’s short haircuts include “boxing”, “half-boxing”, “Canadian”, “polka”, “hedgehog”, “platform” and some other hairstyles. These hairstyles appeared for the first time about 80 years ago and have already become a real “classic”.

Model

A model haircut is a hairstyle created by an experienced hairdresser taking into account the individual anatomical features of the structure of the head and face, as well as the wishes of the client. Any hairstyle can be a model – from an elegant classic to an extravagant haircut “Iroquois”. The master step-by-step and carefully implements his plan, as a result, this model haircut becomes a client’s favorite, and he will wear it for many years, or even his whole life.

The basis for a model haircut is the usual haircut for short hair, just the master brings one or more of his own elements into the hairstyle. For example, a haircut with patterns – on top resembles the usual “half box”, and from the sides and on the back of the head, the master shaves the picture. Sometimes the master leaves a lock on the back of his head, then a hairstyle with a ponytail comes out.

Great scope for imagination gives the technique of “ragged haircut.” The master cuts the hair with a razor so that it seems as if the hair is torn. Haircut “ladder” will give the hair volume. Scheme of its implementation: the master cuts the hair so that the strands processed from the back of the head and down are longer than each other. The “cascade” differs from the “ladder” in that the transition of the strands is not smooth, but sharp.

With shaved temples

Such hairstyles were recently a sign of punk style music lovers. But fashion is changing, and more often men with shaved temples appear on the streets. The base for the hairstyle is any short haircut – you just need to shave the whiskey, and a powerful creative charge is provided.

Stylist Tips

  • Short haircuts are suitable for strong-willed, strong and energetic men, their age does not matter.
  • Most of all they are suitable for men with a round face, and often stylists recommend choosing hairstyles with shortened hair on the sides and elongated at the crown. If the face is elongated or oval, it is better to make another hairstyle. Bangs are not always suitable for men with an elongated face.
  • If it is important for a teenager to stand out and find his own original stylish image with a catchy haircut with asymmetry, then for older men this option may not work. The characteristic features of youth hairstyles are deliberately careless appearance, catchiness and even outrageous.
  • Feel free to give instructions to hairdressers – in many cases they relate to their work “through the sleeves.” Your appearance is in your hands!
