Our Fave Haircuts for Men with Thick Hair

The key to feeling light is to keep all the volume on top. While everything is clean underneath, you can create texture and body with your thick hair on top.

Editor’s tip: Nail that tousled look by styling your thick hair with VO5 Styling Wax. It gives your ‘do the hold that it needs to stay on point all day without leaving a crunchy residue. 

2. Thick quiff with undercut

What can we say? The main secret for the best haircuts for men with thick hair is an undercut. A classic quiff is great especially on thick hair. Simple and sleek, this haircut is perfect from work to play.

Editor’s tip: An undercut leaves your scalp openly exposed. While it’s free to breathe, make sure your scalp is also free from dandruff. Do this by washing your hair with Clear Deep Cleanse Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for Men. This product has activated charcoal, mint, and Nutrium 10 that activates the scalp’s protective layer to leave it fresh and healthy.

3. Wavy brush up

We get you. Thick wavy hair is really difficult to let go of. Keep all of its glory in a wavy brush up with an undercut so you have an open room for some air under the sun.

4. Angular brush up
