1 – Faux Locs
Many men are sporting locs today, from entertainment stages to board rooms, but if you just want the style and don’t want to wait for your hair to grow out, consider faux locs. This style can range from a dramatic curl as featured in the picture to a tapered and conservative look. Locs can be styled in many different ways making the style great for versatility. It is also a great camouflaging style if your hair is beginning to thin in certain areas. Whatever style you desire, we can achieve it at Harlem Natural Hair Salon.
2 – Coils
Want a low-maintenance curly look for your natural hair? Coils are great for men with curly hair and can be perfect for you if you want a low-maintenance, easy-to-wear style. Just get up and go every morning! Coils are best for short hair and can generally be worn for up to four weeks. They are also one of the best hairstyles for easily styling curly hair.
3 – Curly Undercut
One of the latest style trends for men with curly hair is the undercut. With this style, the sides and back are cut short while keeping plenty of hair on the top to showcase those natural curls and layer over the cut to give a cool and modern look. This is truly one of the best hairstyles for long curly hair to create a groomed look that highlights hair texture and gives definition to the hairline.
4 – Wash and Go with a Taper Fade
Defining your natural curls with a wash-and-go is quick and easy and a style that you can do on your own. For a clean and classic look, the tapered fade adds definition to the hairline while maintaining your natural texture on top. With a little bit of curl defining gel or mousse, you will have curl definition that will last for days! If you are a fan of a well groomed look, choose a tapered fade haircut and pop your curly hair for added distinction.
5 – Loose locs – the Killmonger Look
Michael B. Jordan set off sparks for this hairstyle when he rocked the locs in Black Panther as Killmonger. Locs that are loose at the base create a carefree freeform look and can become your signature style—think Jay Z and Basquiat. For a little more form and grooming, keep the tips and the base hair separated. As the hair grows out, continue to twist the tips only leaving loose hair at the base. Locs offer a versatile appearance for your hair and create a fuller look. Try this style at home or with a professional stylist. It is one of the best hairstyles for men with curly hair.
6 – High Top Fade with Curls
If you are looking for a smart and contemporary option to flaunt your natural curls with the best haircut for a balanced and neat appearance, a fade with a permanent part is a sexy option. Play with the parts to define your personal style. The versatility that you will have with styling the hair on top will allow you a myriad of styles. Find your style amongst the best hairstyles for men with curly hair.
7 – Short Coils With High Top Fade/9
Coils, coils, and more coils! If your hair is not already coily, a professional stylist can create coils for you or can help define your natural coils. Sport short coils with a fade for a look that turns heads. This bold and edgy look can take you from the beach to the board room and everyplace in between. Try out this temple shave cut to stand out from the crowd.
8 – Coils with Undercut
The undercut is becoming a classic for a stylish and contemporary look. Add in a heap of defined coils and you have a look that you won’t have to touch for a few weeks! With the sides and back short, faded, and tempered, keep the top long enough to achieve this texture (generally 1 ½ to 2 inches minimum). Style the coils with mousse, gel, or a curl defining cream gel depending on your texture. Then twist the coils into form with your fingers or a comb. Coils are one of the best hairstyles for men with curly hair.
