2. Mens Hairstyles for Special Occasions

3. Wavy Mens Hairstyles

If you happen to have wavy hair and you love it, the best thing to do is to get a medium, textured and layered cut. Don’t part it on any side and use copious amounts of wax or mousse to give it a tousled look.

4. Long Mens Hairstyles

When you have long hair as a man, there is little you can do about it, other than looking completely awesome and badass. Pro tip – invest in a range of high quality hair care products to take care of that mane.

5. The Short Afro

Keep it funky and cool with a short afro. It’s the best of both worlds since it still has all the benefits of an actual afro but less of all the taking care of it. Use some hair oil to soften it up and make it easier to tame.
