HAIRCUTS FOR RECEDING HAIRLINE!!

A receding hairline is one of the most common types of hair loss. But not all guys need to shave their head to cope with a high hairline. Whether you’re just starting to thin on top, were born with a bad hairline, or have a widow’s peak, this guide will show you the best hairstyles for a receding hairline. From a taper fade or undercut on the sides to a buzz cut, crew cut, comb over, or mohawk on top, there are a number of good short and long hairstyles for men with receding hairlines.

Genetics, lifestyle choices, and even the styling and grooming products you use can impact your hairline. Most guys notice their hairline receding as early as their 20’s, 30’s, or 40’s. Generally, thicker hair is easier to work with since it covers a receding hairline more easily and allows for more hairstyle options. Nevertheless, there are plenty of good styles to pick from even if you have thinning hair on top. The best haircuts for receding hairlines tend to be short on the sides and back, and range from short to medium length to long on top.

Undercut

The undercut is one of the best ways to balance out a receding hairline. Undercut hairstyles for men have been popular and trendy in recent years. The undercut requires short back and sides, making it great for hiding thinning hair and men’s receding hairlines. Plus, the short haircut on the sides complements a number of sexy styles, including the slicked back, comb over and quiff. If you want a versatile short sides, long top haircut, start with this edgy, modern look.

Taper Fade

Taper fade haircut is another classy and stylish look that works for men with receding hairlines. With so many different types of fades, guys have the opportunity to really tailor their cut. For example, for guys who are balding, we would recommend a skin fade or high fade that blends directly into the high hairline.

By starting high and tapering the length very short with clippers, a faded hairline can draw attention away from your bald spots and towards the fuller, longer hair on top.

Buzz Cut Haircut

The buzz cut is among the most common receding hairline haircuts because it’s simple and easy to try. While the buzz cut can be very different and a huge change for guys who are used to having a full head of hair, the style does tone down the hairline significantly.

Slicked Back Hair

The slick back is a sexy retro hairstyle that will play to your thinning or receding hair. Specifically, the slick back undercut and slick back fade are modern versions that are easy to get, quick to style, and universally handsome.

Comb Over Hairstyle

The comb over hairstyle is shaping up to be a barbershop favorite, whether guys are balding or not. In fact, the comb over fade can be the perfect haircut if you have full, thick hair because you can part your hair to one side and hide your receding hairline as you brush the style over.

However, it is critical to mention that the comb over haircut should not be worn by men with thin hair. Parting your hair when you are thinning on top is a recipe for disaster, and guys should just wait to grow their hair out longer or get a shorter cut.

Regulation Cut Haircut

Another haircut that draws its inspiration from the military, this one boasting more length. The regulation cut is a precise imagining of a longer-haired military cut. Combed over with a defined part, the regulation employs longer, scissor-cut sides to achieve a classic style. Much like alternative versions of the comb over, this style uses the hairline as a feature of the hair’s part.

Mohawk

The mohawk features shaved sides, which means it will stop people from seeing your receding hairline. Although a short mohawk is more socially accepted, the style can work with short, medium or long hair on top. As long as you get a mohawk with trimmed sides, you can customize the shape, width and height of the hair on top any way you want. Ultimately, the signature strip in the middle that comprises the mohawk hairstyle is perfect for guys who are balding, thinning or suffering from receding hair.

Longer Hairstyle

If your hair is still reasonably thick but merely receding, you may be able to try a longer style. A longer hairstyle has the advantage of hiding the area above your temples most likely to be showing early signs of a receding hairline. A more unruly option, not every man can (or should) try the longer cut. Although with the right sense of style, a longer cut can shave years from your look.

Faux Hawk Haircut

The faux hawk is an excellent substitute for men who don’t want to shave the hair on their sides and back. Instead, the faux hawk fade takes advantage of the short faded hairline with a less drastic approach. By pushing your hair towards the center, drawing attention to the unique style on top, and minimizing the contrast on the sides, the fohawk haircut will make your receding hairline disappear.

Clean Shave

The ultimate way to look a receding hairline in the eyes and say ‘no’ is the clean shave. It’s a look that doesn’t work for everybody, and unfortunately, you will probably only learn whether or not you can pull it off once you’ve already taken the leap. But as long as the shape of your head complements your face and you can wear the bald look with confidence, this is a look that you just might be able to own. The clean shave works best with a full beard to bring a sense of balance to your otherwise hairless head.
