Haircuts for Curly Hair Men

Curly Undercut

The Cut: Take short back and sides to the extreme and let the volume do the talking. This style is great for adding a bit of height and slimming down your face. To achieve the look, use a high-grade clipper for the back and sides but keep a longer length on top. Easily one of the handiest haircuts for men with curly hair.

How to Style: Dry hair from roots the up using a hairdryer to lift the hair upwards and backwards. Once dry, rub some pomade through your hands and rub lightly through your hair to keep your curls neat and glossy.

Men’s Short Wavy Hairstyles

Curly Comb Over/Side Part

The Cut: The curly side part works just as well on wavy, thicker hair as it would with straight hair. Ask your barber to trim your hair shorter down each side and leave a long length on top. To make things even easier, we’d advise getting a hard part bladed in to save you heaps of time in the morning.

How to Style: As with the curly undercut, dry hair from roots up using a vent brush to lift the hair but pull up and to the side instead of backwards. Use your hands to style hair to one side. Once dry, rub a wax through the hair for hold and a natural shine.

Wavy Fringe

The Cut: To get this look, you can go for high/low grade on the back and sides as long as you keep most of the length at the top. Blend the hair on top using scissors with the longest length at the front, getting shorter towards the crown.

How to Style: Begin by applying a small amount of curl enhancing mousse to your hair when damp and lightly scrunch with your fingers as you dry to help create the relaxed waves. Once dry, use a texturising product to style your fringe into place. For added staying power, finish off with a light-hold hairspray.

Curly Quiff

The Cut: The curly quiff requires shorter hair on the back and sides with medium to long hair on top. For thick wavy hair for men, ask your barber to layer the length a little to reduce weight alongside this, if you plan to style your quiff to one side, explain this to your barber and they can alter the cut to suit.

How to Style: When styling curly hair quiffs, use a vented brush and dry the front of your hair with a hairdryer whilst lifting the hair upwards and backwards. If you want a smooth finish, use the brush to guide the hair backwards as your dry the sides too. If you want to keep a textured, curly finish, ditch the brush and switch to shaping with your fingers. Keep defining the curls by scrunching them into place.

When finished, run pomade through your hair for gentle hold followed by a spritz of hairspray. If you’re unsure how to style a quiff or want to know how to do a quiff, read our quick guide here. What is a quiff without a bit of volume anyway?
