Hello Fashionable and happy new weekend!
We’re still in the month of International Women’s celebration and for this reason, today’s article is going to be about exposing you to trendy, classy and flexible hair-dos for females and their male counterparts.
Slaying cloth-wise is good but to create a perfect and complete stylish look, you have got to be dripping fabulous, from hair to toe. Popular observation has it that once a man finds a hair-do that suits and complements his facial attributes, it is very hard to have him try something else, as a result of fear of lack of fitting. The same can be said for women but you know it’s worst for men: Let’s test run this hypothesis, think back to any of your close male counterpart and ask yourself how long he’s been on the hair cut he’s currently wearing. So, although it’s International Women’s History Month, this piece should strongly be dedicated to all them brothers, husbands, male lovers and so on.
Gentlemen, I know it can be scary to try new things most especially when it comes to looks, because one wrong step can mean a week or two of uncomfortable appearance but there are great perks to trying a new hair cut once or twice. You might wonder why you need to change your hair cut style since you can get to go for hair leveling almost every two weeks. Remember the joy and fascinating feeling you get when you see your partner, friend, sister or some random female in a beautiful hair-do and you get the urge to want to get to know her better? That right there, is the same impact you’d be having on your partner, friend, acquaintance or soon to be acquainted if you’d look past the fear and try something new with your hair cut or hair-do. Below are guidelines on styles and the type of facial characteristics they’d sit comfortably and handsomely on.
Line Up Haircut: This works well for literally almost every facial structure and gives a balanced feel of corporate and sexy (beard gang or not). The line up haircut is a low cut with a taper fade on the sides and chiseled to perfection hair line sharpening. This look works well for young, old, corporate and non-corporate male individuals.
Long/ High Top, Short Sides: This is a very popular hair cut amongst males and by acquaintance, amongst females too. This hair cut is mostly appropriate for individuals with semi oblong facial structure and personnel in a not so rigid corporate work setting/space. This hair cut screams, cool and down to earth.
Temple fade with Sponge Twists: This is second popular amongst males, most especially awon beard geng. It is facial structure appropriate for individuals with long jaw line structure and can only work for individuals with round face, if they wear a length appropriate facial beard. The temple fade with sponge twist hair cut entails a moderate high top, semi faded sides and a neatly carved facial beard. This look is mostly worn by individuals in a non-corporate organization.
High Skin fade with twists: This is similar to the temple fade with sponge twists, the difference being that this hair cut can be worn by individuals in a corporate environment because of its skin fade sides and neat beard cutting. This hair cut is majorly appropriate for individuals with semi oblong face.
Buzz cut plus Line up plus Full beard: This haircut entails a line up hair cut with semi two layered side fade with a full beard and almost not visible waves. This haircut works on all facial structures and can be worn by both corporate and non-corporate personnel.
360 waves plus shape up: This haircut works magically for individuals with round shaped face. The 360 waves plus shape up entails a semi low cut with full on circled around the head waves, properly carved hairline and beard.
Dreads: Swiftly becoming one of the most popular haircut amongst men, dreads can be made on any of the afore mentioned high top hairstyles with faded sides or one can simply go full on dread.
Ladies! The fact that you feel like braids does more magic for your looks compared to fixing weave-on and vice versa, does not mean you can’t try exploring other options to find out things that work best for you in all available options. The following are trendy and facial characteristic fitting hair-dos that’ll keep you feeling powerful, beautiful and sexy:
