The Best Men’s Haircuts 2020 Guide

Okay, so let’s dive in and take a look at the best haircuts for men we have seen this year. Somewhere on this list there is a brand new haircut and men’s hairstyle combination for you to try out.

1. High Fade Quiff Haircut For Men

The quiff haircut has been a super popular men’s haircut choice the past couple years. With a high fade the cut puts the emphasis on messy textures and flow on top.

2. Messy Undercut Hairstyle For Men

This haircut features messy longer textured hair on top with short shaved sides. A modern take on the undercut. This is a great haircut for men with thick hair.

3. Modern Slicked Back Men’s Haircut

A great example of a classic slicked back look. But here the hair on top is left a bit more natural looking. This is not the traditional approach of styling with a shiny pomade. Rather the hair has been brushed back and blown dry with a hair dryer to give that natural flow and movement. Use a matte pomade.

4. Side Part Hairstyle For Men

A great looking side part men’s hairstyle. To get this look you will want to use a product that has a bit of shine. Work a small amount of a shiny pomade into damp hair. Comb into place. To get some extra body use a blow dryer.

5. Longer Natural Flow Hairstyle + Short Sides

This has been one of the most popular men’s haircuts for several years. Shaved sides. Long hair on top. You need to use a blow dryer to get the tall big hair factor on top. A great look for any type but works best with thicker hair types.

6. Long Hairstyle For Men + Beard

As we have said longer hair looks are in. More and more guys are growing their hair out longer. This is a beautiful scissor cut haircut for men with curly hair. Lots of great looking flow and movement. Features a disconnected beard.

7. High-Lo Fade + Surgical Line + Long Fringe

This is a cool haircut for guys to get. It features a bald fade, side part, surgical line, a long fringe (bangs), and longer messy textured hair on top.

8. Long Hair Brushed Back Men’s Hairstyle

Another great example of short sides (high fade) and long hair on top.

9. Undercut + Messy Hair On Top + Long Fringe

One of the best undercuts we have ever seen. If you have an abundance of thick hair than this might be a good option. The hair on top is left to flow wildly. Undercuts are one of those men’s haircuts that continues to evolve into cooler new styles.

10. Long Fringe + Undercut

A cool version of the undercut. Here we have an asymmetrical look with the long fringe in front. Men’s haircuts with longer lengths in the front are on trend and very cool. They are like the modern version of the classic “skater haircut”.

11. Hairstyle For Thick Hair

A beautifully tapered haircut. A great looking side part haircut. Not too much clipper work, mostly scissor cut.

12. Cool Long Hairstyle For Men

Another great haircut that does not feature a fade. Instead the hair on the sides has been trimmed neatly with scissors. Ultra long fringe in the front.

13. Textured Haircut

A super cool short textured haircut with a low fade and plenty of flow. Textured men’s haircuts are awesome because they give you more styling options. They can be worn neat and clean if you style with a comb or styled into a less refined messy hairstyle.

14. Shorter Textured Haircut + Long Fringe

Such a cool haircut. Messy medium textures on top give that spiky look. Fringe was kept longer. Another undercut with a very modern twist to it.

15. Spiky Quiff Haircut

Another great example of a quiff haircut. One of the most popular men’s haircuts we have seen the past couple years made popular by the likes of David Beckham. This one is on the shorter side. The textures give that spiky appearance on top. Use a medium to strong hold pomade to style the haircut into place.

16. Medium Length Men’s Haircut + Taper Fade

This is an awesome taper fade haircut with some great medium length flow on top. You will need to use a blow dryer to get that flow and movement.

17. Mid Fade Haircut

This haircut for men features a super clean mid fade on the sides and back. Perfectly blended into the short to medium length hair on top. A great cleaned up look for those of you that have thick, wavy or curly hair.

18. Curly Flat Top Haircut

Perfectly sculpted curls on top and sides kept short with a mid fade

19. Medium Length Haircut + Mid Fade

A great looking line up in the front. To get the hair to look like this on top you need to use a blow dryer and brush. You can blow dry damp hair with or without a light to medium hold pomade.

20. Cool Hairstyle For Curly Hair + Drop Fade

A bald/drop fade keeps things cool in the back and sides. Curly hair on top is left wild. Long fringe in the front. If you have thick curly hair this is a great look. Easy to style and maintain. Simply towel dry and go.

21. Low Fade Haircut + Side Part

A nice classic men’s haircut with a modern feel to it. A mix of a side part and pompadour hairstyle.

22. Medium Length Modern Classic Men’s Haircut

A great looking classic men’s tapered haircut with side part. Short on the sides. Long hair on top.

23. High Fade + Medium Hair

This is such a great haircut for men to get. Super versatile. Easy to style. It features a high fade with medium length hair on top that can be styled in so many ways. Style a pomp, slick it back, comb into a side part hairstyle or just wear it dry and natural. So many options. To get this look use a light to medium hold pomade. Work a small amount of pomade into your hair when it is dry. Or, work it into damp hair and use a blow dryer and brush to get that movement and wavy look.

24. Cool Short Curly Haircut + Drop Fade

This is such a great summer haircut for men to get. Works with any hair type. Hair has been cut short on top. Features a drop fade down to the skin and cool looking disconnected beard.

25. Pomp + Drop Fade Haircut

This haircut is half pompadour half undercut. It features a drop fade down to the skin. To get this look you need a blow dryer. That is what will give the hair body, flow and movement. Brush and blow dry to the one side. Brush and blow dry front to back. It is amazing what just a brush and a blow dryer can do to give the hair big flow. You don’t even need to use a product. However, a light to medium hold pomade will help to keep the hair standing up for more hours of the day.

26. Messy Hairstyle For Men With Thick Hair

Another great example of the modern undercut. Messy textured hair on top gives the undercut a modern feel.

27. Low Fade Haircut + Wavy Hair

A low fade to the sides and back with medium hair on top left to flow however it wants.

28. Long Curls + Hair Design

Cool side hard part accenting this high fade. Perfectly blended into longer natural hair on top.

29. Low Fade + Messy Longer Hair On Top

An undercut with long messy textured hair on top. Super clean low fade.

A bald fade haircut with long wavy hair on top. Lots of contrast going on. One of the coolest men’s haircuts you can get if you have wavy or curly hair.

31. Cool Haircut For Thick Hair

Cool looking low fade, side part (shaved hard part). Great looking medium length quiff hairstyle.

A cool thick textured hairstyle for men that have curly hair.

37. Cool Men’s Haircut

Mullets are in. And will grow in popularity as we head towards 2020. This is a super cool undercut meets pompadour meets mullet.

38. Medium Textures + Short Sides

If you have thick hair this is a great haircut to try out. Tapered short on the sides. Long hair on top styled back. You can style it into a side part look or just slick it back.

39. Slicked Back Modern Undercut Hairstyle

I like this haircut a lot. The undercut is not shaved as high as you normally see. Hair on top is slicked back. You can either brush and blow dry it back. Or you can go for a more slick look by using a shiny pomade, work it into damp hair, and simply brush or comb your hair back into place.

40. Scissor Cut Side Part Haircut

Another great example of where things are headed. More flow, movement, and longer lengths of hair. A great looking tapered haircut for men. Short on the sides but no skin. Styled naturally into a side part.

41. Mohawk Bald Fade Haircut

Mohawks have become more and more popular in 2018. This cut features a bald fade, line up in the front to keep things looking clean and fresh, and the curls on top are left natural to do their thing

42. Long Textured Fringe + Mid Fade Haircut

A long fringe just looks cool. This is a modern take on the classic skater haircut for guys. Long textures are styled forwards into the flow of the fringe. The heavier hair length up front and on top contrasts perfectly with the mid fade to the sides and back.

43. Short Textured Quiff Haircut + Mid Fade

Short haircuts for men never go out of style and always look great. This is a great haircut for guys that have thick hair and want to keep things clean and fresh. This look features a mid skin fade, and short textured hair on top styled into a quiff. The great thing about short haircuts is that they are super easy to maintain and style. Not much to it. Simply towel dry, work a small amount of pomade into damp or dry hair, and style into place using your fingers. One of the best short haircuts you could get.

44. Textured Quiff Mohawk Haircut

A totally cool haircut. Part mohawk, part quiff, part pompadour. It features a bald fade that places the emphasis on the wild loose hair on top. To get this look you need to use a blow dryer and a brush.

45. Cool Short Crop Haircut For Wavy Hair

Crop haircuts have been super popular starting in 2017. They are still going strong as we enter the second half of 2018 and will likely continue to be a top pick for guys that like a short haircut as we head into 2020. Crop haircuts work for all hair types. At first we were seeing mostly blunt cut crops. These days we are seeing more textured and asymmetrical fringes. This one is kind of in between. This is definitely one of the best haircuts for men that want to keep their hair short. It is also one of the best haircuts for receding hairlines since the hair is styled forwards.

46. Natural Waves Medium Length Men’s Haircut

A very natural looking classic men’s haircut. Short sides, a bit longer on top, brushed back into place.

47. Slicked Back Wavy Men’s Hairstyle + Bald Fade

Another good haircut for guys that have thick or wavy hair. A classic look with short sides and medium length hair on top. It can be styled back naturally as in this photo or slicked back with a strong hold pomade with shiny finish.

48. Modern Taper Fade Haircut For Men

A totally cool tapered haircut. The hair on top and in the back is kept longer to give the hair movement and flow front to back.

49. Longer Men’s Hairstyle For Curly Or Wavy Hair

This is the best haircut for curly hair. Things have been all cleaned up along the hair line with an awesome minuscule taper fade. The curly hair on top and in the back is left to flow naturally

50. Cool Textured Thick Hair + Short Sides

This is one of the best haircuts for thick hair or curly hair. Styled into a side part quiff. Super cool haircut for men.

51. Low Fade + Twisted Curls

This cut features a low fade with natural curls on top that have been styled using a twist sponge.

52. Natural Slicked Back Haircut

One of the best haircuts for thick wavy hair. This look is on trend now. Sides are cut short (but not faded) to emphasize the natural wavy flow on top. Fade haircuts.

53. Natural Flow + Movement

Another amazing haircut for men with thick hair. A classic medium men’s haircut that has been super popular in 2017 and 2018. Things are trimmed and cleaned up. But no clipper work. No shaved hair. No skin. This is what we will see more and more of as we head into 2020. More guys are opting for longer hair.

54. Medium Fringe + Natural Movement

I love this haircut. This is one of the best haircuts for thin hair of fine hair. If you have less hair you want a haircut that keeps more but places the emphasis on what is left on top. This taper fade and short sides accomplishes that. Blended perfectly into a medium length on top that has a tremendous amount of flow.

55. Super Cool Low Fade + Short Textured Hair

This is one of my favorite haircuts that I have seen in the past year. I like fade haircuts that are not just your classic fade. This haircut shows off some cool 1980s design with hard lines in the back and sides to give the fade some extra detail. Very cool. I got this haircut myself after I saw it done by Rafa. On top we have some nice soft looking medium textures.

56. Low Fade + Thick Textured Hair

Another fantastic haircut. I love this choppy textured quiff haircut that features a high skin fade. To get this hairstyle use some stronger hold pomade. Work it into damp hair. Blow dry and brush the hair into place. This is a super cool disconnected undercut meets quiff.

57. Choppy Textured Medium Length Haircut For Men

A few years ago it was all about short textured haircuts. Then things evolved into longer textured haircuts like this one. This is a good haircut for guys that have thicker hair whether your hair is coarse or fine. The textured cut makes the styling part easier. You can towel dry or do a quick blast blow dry. Then simply work a medium to strong hold pomade into the hair to bring the textures alive. Every day you can get a different look depending on the direction you move the hair into place. That is what is awesome about textured haircuts like this one.

58. Beautifully Tapered Men’s Haircut
