<\/p>\nSo, you\u2019ve been working from home and\/or staying in more often over the past few months. And, since this is the case, you have kind of decided to go \u201cbad hair, don\u2019t care\u201d or let your mane go wild since, well, no one\u2019s looking.<\/p>\n
But, listen: You do need to care of your coif. Because:
\na) the year-end\u2019s coming so it\u2019s about time for you to glow up or refresh your look;
\nb) grooming is still essential because it\u2019s hygienic to do so; and
\nc) you can\u2019t grow into all kinds of hairy styles because you aren\u2019t exactly Harry Styles.<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t know where to start? Take on these 4 in-trend hairstyles for men to keep your hair game, A game, and you looking fine into end-2021 and beyond.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Consider this the new and improved undercut 2.0. Like the classic undercut, it\u2019s basically trimmed or shaved back and sides of the head, with the hair at the crown left longer. Supposedly a style that first came up in Korea a couple of years back, it has since blown up in popularity the world over (thanks to K-Pop).<\/p>\n
So many reasons why you should opt for this. It\u2019s super popular, easy to upkeep, suitable for any face shape, occasion or place (even back at the office), and versatile \u2013 you can choose to style the longer mop on top however you want. What\u2019s more, you can trim the back and sides on your own at home to maintain the look without having to head down to the salon. And<\/em>, you don\u2019t even need to look like an actual K-Pop star to look like a Korean oppa!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n While this style isn\u2019t exactly new (it was already popular these few decades), it\u2019s an \u201cold-world military charm meets modern barbering\u201d look that\u2019s still going strong, especially for the younger dudes with straighter, voluminous or thicker hair.<\/p>\n An extreme version of a typical undercut, the disconnected undercut features strands left much denser and longer at the top, and the hair on the back and sides taken down very short without any tapers, fades or gradations. As such, a bold contrast is created between these two parts of hair lengths (hence, the \u201cdisconnect\u201d bit).<\/p>\n You can opt for variations of a disconnected undercut, if a skin-shave or razer-fade at the sides and back (where parts of the skin or scalp is exposed) is too much for you. Opt for rounded, textured or medium-length undercuts where the sides aren\u2019t cut quite so short or drastically to lessen the \u201cdramatic\u201d effect. Throw on some product on the top portion \u2013 try a sea salt spray to create some waves for a casual, beachy vibe or slick it all back with some gel for a sleeker, urban feel.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n No, a French Crop won\u2019t make you look French. But, it will make you look stylish, crisp and up-to-date in the fashion stakes.<\/p>\n Simply put, it\u2019s where the hair on the sides and the back are trimmed shorter than the top, with the hair styled forward or cropped at the front to create a noticeable fringe or bangs across the forehead.<\/p>\n It may not be a look that everyone can pull off, but it\u2019s a classic yet chic cut for those who prefer shorter or low-maintenance dos, without need for much styling on a daily basis. Gents of a certain vintage might like this as it complements greying hair by highlighting the beauty of salt-and-pepper crowning glories by creating a natural gradation or ombre effect. It also can help hide thinning hair or receding hairlines by having the lengthier hair on the scalp brought to the front (you just need about an inch or two in the front for a classic French Crop).<\/p>\n For a clean look, you can choose to taper or clip the back and sides shorter or even opt for a low skin-fade along the temples and at the back (so it\u2019s more a Disconnected French Crop, French Crop Undercut or French Crop Fade). Or, get playful with some product by applying it to the hair at the crown and your fringe \u2013 dab on some putty for a messier, \u201cjust woke up\u201d look or smooth some gel through for a sharper and edgier profile.<\/p>\n Fine, so you aren\u2019t all that motivated to majorly chop off your locks or you might still want to keep that luscious mane that you have taken the pain to grow out the past year. Then, just go with the flow, bro, with the Bro Flow.<\/p>\n This hairstyle\u2019s for the guys with medium-to-long length hair (think at least 5 to 6 inches), who want a relaxed and rugged look while maintaining the natural shape of their hair. It\u2019s an easy-going style that can be worn in many ways, and is favoured by many celebs such as Keanu Reeves and Bradley Cooper. Even Seong Gi-hun, the Squid Game<\/em>\u2019s protagonist as played by veteran Korean actor Lee Jung-jae rocks it!<\/p>\n Simply let your hair grow out while getting a basic cut that suits your hair type, and to keep the ends trimmed and neat while letting the layers develop \u2013 you want modern man-of-the-wild, not wild animal.<\/p>\n For maintenance, do regularly shampoo and condition (\u2019cos\u2026 you know, long hair, humidity, hygiene and all that). For styling, you can either comb through and let it be; or blow-dry, comb and part, while using a small amount of pomade or texturising hairspray to add more hold while keeping things looking all au naturel<\/em>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Once you\u2019ve decided on your hairstyle of choice, it\u2019s time to head to a salon to get your hair \u2013 as our older folks used to say \u2013 set and done.
