Pictures of Hairstyles for Men with Curly Hair

Curly Top

If you say young and curly, this picture fits the image perfectly. This is definitely a stylish man's look and can be adapted to a number of different lengths. The bangs at eye level make this style acceptable in a wider number of activities than when they cover the eyes. Note the careful layering. This projects the desired carefree look but takes a lot of regular trimming and, of course, washing. You'll definitely be known as the "guy with the curly hair" when you put it out there with this cut.

The Boyish Look

This is a great look if you have wavy hair with loose curling. This fits well with a triangular and oval face if it's trimmed well. It's a great look for the younger set but may require more grooming than they want to spent time on. Although this is a young lad, the look actually translates well into older guys, as we see in the next picture.

A Little Straightening

The word lush comes to mind with this rendition of the curly look with longer hair and just a bit of straightening. This style can easily fit in the boardroom or the studio with a longer face and the right styling. While on the verge of the wavy/curly line, you can use this look to keep your curls without them overwhelming the impression that your hairstyle makes.

Slightly Messy

Here's another look for those proud of their natural curls but sublimating then into a fuller, wavy style. By keeping the sides shorter and largely off the neck, you get a look that is full and natural, accenting the youthful side. The full look can be influenced with a difference in the bangs and how they're parted or left to fall over the forehead. You'll see a lot of independent business owners and media types with this type of cut.

The Adonis Look

If you want all eyes on the hair, this will do it. Think Adonis and a lot of prep time to keep this look studio ready. Certainly, this takes a longer face shape, but it's versatile based on the final length you choose for the side and bangs. Note here how the beard and moustache help diffuse the almost overpowering impact of this style.

Topside

Need a style to sport your curly hair in the office, dance floor or beach? This cut can fit everyone from teens to the mid-forties, depending on the fashion wear you put with it. The close crop sides keep the style acceptable for most business people while balancing the waves and curls on top. This is another style where the right use of a beard and sideburns can modify the whole appearance. You can work with your stylist and experiment with different lengths topside. You can also increase or relax the curls based on your particular desires.

The Kenny G

So how do older men get away with curly hair? If it's okay for Kenny G, it's okay for a lot of older men. While your occupation and activities will decide if this extreme of celebration of curl is acceptable, it will certainly wear well on many men who want to go the fashionable route. Take care, however, despite the look, this isn't a carefree style.

The Curly Faux Hawk

Here's a look if you want to revel in your curly hair but keep it under control for sports or just for fashion. You can modify this look to let more or less curls show and still keep the close cut advantages.

As these pictures show, curly hair can be worn with a variety of face shapes and hair styles. However, just because you are blessed with curly hair doesn't mean you have to shave it off or spend your time getting it straightened.
