Men’s hairstyles to take note of from this seasons’ Oscars
Timothée Chalamet’s stylish flow hairstyle
Timothée Chalamet is one of the most buzzed-about gents in Hollywood right now, not just because of his acting talent, but also because of his impressive mane.
For the event, the rising star kept his curly mane lightly tousled, proving that the flow hairstyle trend isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Editor’s tip: If you’ve got medium-length or long hair, and want to get this effortless look, just spritz some of the TONI&GUY Men’s Messy Salt Spray into your damp hair and leave it to dry.
Then just like 1, 2, 3, you’ve got a low-maintenance bed-head hairstyle that’s perfect for the office and the red carpet!
Chadwick Boseman’s Wakanda haircut
If you’re a black gentleman who is ready to stylishly upgrade your mane this year, the only haircut you should consider getting is the Wakanda haircut.
With its natural long top and sharp faded sides, you’ll instantly elevate your mane to seriously stylish heights. Isn’t that right, Chadwick Boseman?

Sporting a cool South of France haircut – AKA the gentleman’s mohawk – Mahershala’s cut was the perfect balance of sophistication and on-trend edge, making it ideal for the formal event.
Chris Evans’ slick comb over
Captain America star Chris Evans proved that a slick-back look is still top of the trends list, rocking this side parted ‘do on the Oscars 2017 red carpet. This no-fuss, timeless look never goes out of style and works a treat with those with fine or unruly locks!
Editor’s tip: The key to perfecting comb over hairstyles, is investing in a great styling wax (like the Lynx Signature Clean Cut Look Definition Wax), so choose wisely.

Dev Patel’s curly mane
Thought that red carpet styles meant rocking an ultra styled look? Well, think again, because Lion star Dev Patel oozed casual surfer dude vibes with his lightly tousled curls last night.
Justin Timberlake’s Caesar fade
Want a ‘do that’s classy, yet contemporary? Then take a leaf out of Justin Timberlake’s book, whose lightly tousled short crop is the perfect example of how to work a classic short cut in an utterly modern way!
Draw inspiration from the singer and refresh your Caesar cut by pairing it with an edgy skin fade.
Editor’s tip: To add some texture to the top, work a little bit of the VO5 Matt Clay into your mane. It’s great for adding definition, while boasting a barely-there matte finish.
