Pls post some pics of suggestions.
Also how the hell do people get their hair to stay up and forward like in this pic above? Lots of wax? Is it high maintenance? Is it too Zoomer?
Get a tonsure. Unmistakably masc and signals your commitment to the volcel vanguard
You may not like it but this is what peak masculinity looks like
Lmao
That’s not lots of wax, if you use too much it’ll turn your hair into a gloopy mop. You have to use just a little bit and spread it very evenly, and for the poofy stuff will also have to use an air dryer. Don’t ask me how, tho, i kinda suck at doing hair and particularly masc haircuts, if i would give you directions you’d either look like or a pop punk hedgehog.

definitely don’t need something as heavy as wax, like people have said if you train your hair to need less washing it will be more malleable, but a light product like sea salt spray or similar would be enough to achieve this kind of look.
Thanks for the reminder. I should cut my hair.
The person in the pic’s hair is probably high maintenance but it doesn’t have to be. With hair a bit shorter than the pic I can make my hair stand almost straight up without anything other than my natural hair grease. I don’t use shampoo so my hair doesn’t fluctuate between having no grease and being really greasy so I don’t need product to get my hair big. If my hair was as long as the person in the pic I’d probably have to bordering on gross levels of greasy to get that kind of lift.
YOU HEARD IT HERE EVERYONE, STOP TRYING TO WASH MY DIRT!
Either pomade or stop using shampoo so often (but still wash your hair with water and finger scrubbing). I probably only wash my hair with shampoo 1-3 times a month and always ask the barber if my hair is greasy and he says it is not.
I wish I could get away with that. I have dandruff, psoriasis, eczema, and oily skin. I hate it here.
I also have eczema issues too and used to have more oily skin. I hardly ever wash my face but with my hands and water. I’ve been at this for many years and it wasn’t like this at the start.
A side part is pretty unambiguously masc, not too flashy, and it works in the business sector if you work in, like, an office or something:
The basic bro haircut (I’m allowed to say it, it’s my haircut)
Nonsense! I will hold to my millennial girl side part and I will continue to feminize it!
Without the sideburns or with more feminine sideburns, yes, this same haircut can look incredibly cute on a fem presenting person
To me the middle part is more millennial because it reminds me of all the boy band guys that would have curtain bangs
Buzz cut
You’ve reminded me that I need to go to my barber. I’ll ask him about what specifically he does to make my old chunky ass skull look really cool. But it involves a lot of weird razorblade shenanigans, and it looks great even in between showers or stylings.
He’s basically a hair wizard. He must tell me his secrets.
I got a very lovely haircut, and he told me:
Middle of the face is neutral territory. Ears to cheeks, wrapping around the head, you should generally buzz that down pretty short. Taper the hair up and forward, but respect where natural hair parts lay. I usually get the top cut down to around a bit over an inch in the front for styling purposes, and very slightly shorter going back.
If you are fortunate enough to have a beard, taper it down and forward, to either show off, or mask, where your jawline is. But it should present like you got a strong jaw.
I don’t know if that’s helpful for your situation, but that’s what my guy told me. Lebanese guy, committed anarchist, and I don’t know how he reconciles that with owning a barber shop, but I cannot deny the man’s talent.
He cuts my (trans-masc) son’s hair, and it looks pretty good.
depends on hair, you can get it to stay up with fairly low maintenance with wax/pomade, tho it does tend to drop over the course of the day.
There are the viking braids, which I think look really cool. If you are able to grow a beard it can complement it really well.
and if you don’t feel like braiding, man-bun. Needs rather straight hair though and you probably shouldn’t go too masc as it comes with a certain “nordic baggage” (it’s popular with the esoteric strain of nazis)
Don’t know if it’s “cute” though. Other than that, I can only think of the Nick Carter:
Afab and not on T, so no beard for me
ooh there’s also the early justin bieber, lots of ideas when I search for “teenage heartthrob haircut”
Haha noooo way man. I will never beeb
I had the beeb bowl haircut as a kid before Bieber was a thing, then had it through the peek of his popularity, and still had it when Bieber changed his style. Went from cool, to uncool to cool again lol.
Aww I kinda like the dorky, inoffensive look. But I like pretty much everything about 90’s 00’s teenage heartthrob look if I was to look for cute. Except the Justin Timberlake of course.
short n tight slick back mullet
That could also be a good lesbian cut
It really depends on the length of hair, and can you let it dry while still having a bit of moisture. I used to wax and stuff to mold the hair in place, but I’m much less picky most days so I just push it up after my shower and style it when it’s damp-ish. It should finish drying and mostly maintain the shape unless the hair is excessively long then you need some product.
I would assume you need product to pull of the hair in the picture.
Lots of product yeah. Same for high volume combovers or anything like that, but not wax or gel, pomade is probably the the best. Also the barber or hairstylist needs to layer the top sections of hair appropriately to make it “light” and give it volume, otherwise it’ll just flop down.
Before I grew out my hair, I was a big fan of the undercut hairstyle, buzzed and sometimes faded on the back and sides and long on top.
What if you have the front and top part of your head shaved and have short hair on the back of your head?
