Haircuts for Thinning Hair

Is more of your scalp or forehead showing than last year? Don’t rush into the shaved head look just yet. You’ll have plenty of time to rock the Captain Picard and John Malkovich look. For now, focus on flattering haircuts for thinning hair.

One of the best ways to ease the transition into baldness is keep hair cropped short. This way, the difference between thinner spots and full hair is minimal.

The natural response is to hang on to the hair you’ve got but this only draws (negative) attention to the issue. Think Bozo the Clown.

Second, bangs or fringe is your friend (when done right). The Caesar cut is always recommended for receding hairlines for a reason. The short bangs cover some of the expanding forehead while staying in place and not looking anything like a comb over attempt.

The last way to make the most of haircuts for thinning hair is with product. Many men have seen great results from Rogaine or Nourish. There are also non-medicated options that thicken hair like Avalon Organics Biotin B Thickening and L’Oreal Vive Pro for Men 2-in-1 Thickening.

Finally, use a lightweight product like American Crew Texture Lotion for everyday styling – heavy products weight hair down.
