No man wants to have to face the reality of thinning hair. It’s unfortunate but very common. While a baldness cure is closer to a reality than ever before, everyone loses hair in different ways, from hair actually falling out to gradually losing volume and luster. But like almost every other style challenge, there are some simple rules to follow to draw attention away from a perceived negative like baldness. You may even discover a sophisticated new look!
Keep Your Hair Neatly Cropped
It may seem counter-intuitive to suggest someone dealing with less hair should keep what they do have short, but nothing says I’m losing my hair but in denial more than growing out long, thin hair, or, even worse, coming it over to cover a bald spot. On the other hand, a closely trimmed or near-shaved cut seems more like a choice of style preference, and many women find it to be a distinguished, sexy look. Just make sure to keep up regular appointments with your barber to keep it well-shorn.
Accessorize with Glasses
A sharp-looking pair of glasses become the focal point of your look before people even notice your hair. Be sure to choose stylish frames that fit the shape of your face.
Accessorize with Facial Hair
Along the same lines, facial hair also makes for a great, eye-catching accessory. Different styles of beards and goatees come in and out of fashion as trends change, but right now, big beards and small mustaches are both very much in vogue. Just make sure that you’ve consulted with a stylist or other hair care professional and they sign off on your haircut and facial hair complement each other; that can be difficult to judge objectively on your own.
Use Volumizing Products
Whether you keep your hair closely shaved or have a little length, volumizing shampoo, conditioner, and styling gel or cream will make the best of what you have. Volumizers help your hair stand out in all the best ways: giving it body and healthy shine. It may be subtle, but it’s healthy and certainly won’t hurt your look!
It’s important to remember that you are your hair’s worst critic. While you may be self-conscious about it, there’s a good chance that most of the people you meet won’t even notice. These tips will help you stay away from bad habits that will draw attention for the wrong reasons!
