The Hottest Hairstyle for Men Has Big Hair Reigning Supreme
Marissa Liu — October 14, 2009 — Fashion
This season’s hairstyles for men are trending towards longer locks on top with a lot of volume and shorter sides. Blame it on Mad Men as playful, retro-looking, side-parted, bouffant-type hairstyles were frequenting runways in Milan, London, Paris and New York. Think of channeling a rebellious James Dean, but with a little less pomade.
This billowy hairstyle for men can be worn clean cut (as seen on the Calvin Klein, D & G and Burberry Prorsum runways) or as a disheveled just out of bed look (as seen at Lanvin). Where this hairstyle for men is concerned, size matters and bigger is better.
