Today, despite the huge selection of men's hairstyles, sports, in particular, boxing hairstyles, are still the most popular. For active men, who also regularly engage in a particular sport, such haircuts will be most convenient and unpretentious in styling and care.
Hairstyles Features
The basis of sports haircuts is minimalism, and this includes the presence of some features inherent in such haircuts.
- In classic sports hairstyles there is no bangs and whiskey is shaved, which opens the face as much as possible.
- The technology of such haircuts: the hair is cut short, leaving a voluminous parietal part of the head.
- The length of the strands on the crown can be either several millimeters or several centimeters.
- Models of sports haircuts are different. Some of them may have extra long bangs or other fashionable items.
Who is suitable for sports haircuts?
Such haircuts are universal and suitable for many, but to choose a sports hairstyle you need to be guided by the shape and characteristics of your face, but there are no age restrictions for these hairstyles. On this occasion, stylists give some advice:
- Men with oval or square shapes and large facial features sports and boxing hairstyles are more than ideal.
- Such hairstyles are well suited for males with a pronounced and massive strong-willed chin and the correct shape of the skull.
- If the man has a high sloping forehead, then the sports haircut should be with a slightly elongated bang.
- Men who are faced with the problem of thinning and hair loss can freely choose sport-type haircuts, as they most mask this shortcoming.
Refrain from sports hairstyles should be men with pointed and small features. Such a haircut will only open and emphasize the shortcomings.
The most fashionable boxing hairstyles
So, let's look at the most popular sports types of hairstyles among men - this is boxing and semi-boxing, known to everyone. The so-called boxing hairstyles with short and neatly trimmed hair. They do not require special care and styling. Initially, these hairstyles were popular among boxers, where the name itself came from. After all, the length of 3-4 centimeters was very comfortable for training. You can easily do these haircuts even at home. They are also very practical in that they combine with any style of clothing. And now we can see boxing hairstyles not only among athletes, but also among our idols, such as Justin Timberlake, Brad Pitt, Tom Hardy and others.
And what is the difference between these two varieties of boxing haircuts? Boxing haircut is shorter and looks more restrained and neater, but rougher than the half-box. In the second version, there is a fringing slightly above the nape, on the top of the hair, the hair is trimmed to 3 centimeters, leaving the nape as open as possible. In addition, the transition between different hair lengths should be smooth. Such haircuts add more insolence and brutality to the male appearance, and therefore are so popular.
The advantage of boxing and semi-boxing haircuts is that the shortest hair does not need to waste time styling. There is also a minus - for men with wavy and curly hair, such hairstyles are categorically not recommended.
Men's boxing hairstyle with pigtails
Sometimes you want to slightly change your image and move away from the usual. For a radical change for men who are not afraid of experiments, a boxing braid hairstyle is suitable. In ancient times, most men wore such hairstyles. Long hair was a symbol of strength, courage and courage. Although in our time men's hairstyles with pigtails are not particularly welcome, there are still young people who prefer this style. After all, if a man is the owner of luxurious hair, then why hide it, if you can make a hairstyle that will demonstrate such dignity in all its glory.
A pigtail haircut is done on long hair. Weaving itself is only in the nape of the neck, but not all over the head. This hairstyle gives long hair a more well-groomed and neat look. It is practical and easy to wear and does not get dirty any longer. And most importantly, it will only emphasize your courage.
Zero haircut
It is categorically not recommended to get a haircut to zero for men with an irregular shape of the skull, as it will “give out” all the flaws, and it will look unaesthetic. The technique for doing this hairstyle is quite simple. Hair is cut with a special machine in the direction from the forehead to the crown. The whiskey and the occipital area are further processed. And at the end, a piping is made over the ears, and unnecessary hairs are removed from the neck. Zero haircut really looks brutal. But to maintain its original appearance, you need to regularly visit a hairdresser or adjust it at home using a mechanical machine. Also, doing a haircut bald, you can really heal the roots of your hair.
Military style
Minimalism is also observed in another form of men's sports haircut - military. This hairstyle originated in the United States and is very popular among American soldiers and among the military around the world. Its advantage is the convenience of short hair care. After all, on the top of the hair, leave a length of 5-6 centimeters, and completely shave off the back of the head and temples. Haircuts are easy to style, and the only thing you may need is a gel to create the effect of wet hair.
And this is not a complete list of all the options for sports hairstyles. But in order not to be mistaken with the choice of a haircut that suits you and to emphasize exactly your advantages, not disadvantages, consult stylists, they will tell you the right decision.
