16 Cute And Best Hairstyles For Boys
When you don’t want to chop off your boy’s hair, styling is a good idea.
There are different ways to style hair, regardless of how long or short it is. Here are some that we think your son will look good in.
1. Short Dreads

When your kid has medium-length hair and wants to look as cool as Lenny Kravitz or Bob Marley, short dreads can be an excellent choice.
Dreads are small and wave-like. They stand, bluntly pointing upwards, around the head. For this, the sides are usually shaved or closely trimmed. The hair should be medium to long – at least two inches or more to achieve this style. The style is especially cool for African Americans.
How to:
- The simplest way to create dreads is to use a soft-toothed comb and circle tiny portions of hair into dread balls.
- Wet the hair a little if your kid already has dreadlocks, then all you need to do is keep them short for this style.
- Cut the dreads a little if they grow longer to maintain the style.
The twisting coiling method is a great way to start your child’s dreads. According to Cie Foster, a mother and a lifestyle YouTuber, ”I make sure not to part the section too small so it wouldn’t break off once it locks through long and heavier… I use the comb twist technique for the sections that are longer and more dense. I start by placing the comb at the root and I then put the comb down as I rapidly twist. When I reach the end, I do a quick finger coil around my index finger to finish (i).”
If you have never tried this and want to get it right, go to a professional.
Occasion: Casual, pop star, or musician look
Face type: Angular, oval
Hair type: Long, medium long – straight or medium curly
Celebrities: Jaden Smith
Expert tip: Dreads are low maintenance, once you get them styled. But getting them right is important to get an authentic look.
2. Quiff For Boys
Image: IStock
Your little boy will look cuter with a quiff than without it. A quiff makes the hair noticeable, but it can be subtle or bold depending on how your boy wants it. For a quiff, the hair has to be longer on the top of the head, especially towards the front. The hair on the sides and the back is usually shorter. The classic quiff has more hair on top, at the front and little at the back and on the sides.
How to:
- Style the top hair using a gel.
- Brush the top hair back to create a “wall” or quiff, right above the forehead.
- Use a comb or a brush to smooth the quiff.
- You can use the comb to slightly bend the edges of the quiff forward or backward.
Occasion:
Casual, party style, classy appeal
Face type: Round face – a quiff elongates the face
Hair type: Straight, short, or medium length
Celebrities: Justin Bieber, Douglas Booth, David Beckham
Expert tip: Boys prefer a shorter quiff – longer hair is ideal for the messy quiff or the pompadour style.
3. Pompadour Hairstyle

The pompadour is a bigger quiff and looks classy. The hairstyle was made popular by Elvis Presley and is still a cool idea for teenage boys who want the slicked back look. The hair has to be short on the sides and at the back. Top hair should be longer, or at least of medium length.
How to:
- Take some pomade or hair styling gel to get the pomp.
- Apply the pomade and brush the hair front upward – first with the hand, along with the comb. The pomp has to be bigger than the quiff – more hair is better.
- You can use a little hairspray to keep the pomp in place.
- You may have to try styling the hair more than once to get the desired look.
Occasion:
Party, fashion
Face type: Round face, short foreheads, and sharp cheekbones
Hair type: Straight hair, long to medium length
Celebrities: Elvis Presley
Expert tip: You may have to use a lot of gel to keep the hair in place and get that slick, classy look.
4. Natural Curls
Image: IStock
When you have naturally curly hair, all you need to do is accentuate them with a little styling. If your boy’s hair is straight and thin, you can make it voluminous by turning it into natural curls. If your son has a wavy, medium boy haircut, getting curls is easier.
How to:
- To begin, wash the hair with a sulfur-free, organic shampoo.
- Rinse the hair and dry it with a towel.
- While the hair is still damp, try to form short curls with your fingers.
- Wrap a few strands of hair onto your fingers, hold it for a while, and then leave it.
- Repeat the same for the rest of the hair.
The curls should be wrapped tight, but not so much that they hurt the kid.
Occasion: Everyday
Face type: All face shapes
Hair type: Straight hair, thin hair
Celebrities: Justin Timberlake, Bradley Cooper, Tom Hanks
Expert tip: If your boy’s hair is smooth and straight, getting natural curls could take time. Even if you do, they may not last for more than a few days. Avoid using curlers or curling irons for kids.
5. Messy Fringe Hairstyle

When your boy wants to cover his broad forehead in a stylish way, without ‘girly’ bangs, a messy fringe should work. This modern boy hairstyle needs medium length hair on top.
How to:
- Apply some wax or styling gel to the hair and brush the front top hair onto the forehead.
- Create the fringe as messy as you want by brushing the hair to the front – use your hands to get an unkempt look.
- Tousle the hair around the crown a little. The messy fringe is all set!
Occasion:
Casual, everyday
Face type: All face shapes
Hair type: All hair types – medium and long
Celebrities: Ashton Kutcher, James Dornan
Expert tip: Use the comb minimally to keep that messy look. You may also consider adding some fun, kid-friendly color to the tips of the fringe using temporary hair color or hair chalks. These can give them a funky look for a special occasion and can be washed off easily.
6. Combed Back Hair
Image: Instagram
Combed back hair is one of the simplest hairstyles for kids. If your boy wants something formal, ‘Godfather’ style, the combed back hairstyle is what you should try.
All you need is some hair gel or pomade with a strong to medium hold, and a comb. The hair should be short to medium length on the top and the sides as well. It is short at the back.
How to:
- Apply the gel and comb the hair backward, in a slightly diagonal direction.
- You can also brush it back for the slick combed look.
- Comb over so that no loose strands come out.
- Pat down the hair on the top and sides if needed.
Occasion:
Party, formal dance
Face type: Oval, angular
Hair type: Straight, medium curly – medium or short
Celebrities: Bradley Cooper
Expert tip: The key to a perfectly combed back hair is a good haircut.
7. Side Parting Hairstyle

There is not a lot to do when you want this hairstyle, except finding the right place to split the hair and figure out which side you want the hair combed. The side part hairstyle is for young boys who want to look dapper in their sports jerseys or suits.
For this style, the top left side should have longer hair while the sides have buzzed, short hair. The style is reminiscent of the 60s.
How to:
- To style, apply a decent amount of pomade to the hair.
- Starting from the left temple, comb the hair in the opposite direction – this will leave a little hair on the left side.
- Comb in such a way that the emphasis is not on the top.
- Spread the hair evenly towards the side.
Occasion:
Formal
Face type: All face shapes, find the best side parting that suits you
Hair type: Straight, medium-length

Expert tip: There are 40 different side parting styles – make sure you pick one that suits your face shape best.
Quick tip8. Spiky Fringe
The spiky fringe is the alternative to the porcupine spikes of the 1990s. A little bit of mousse is what you need to obtain this cool, spiky look for the kid. The hair needs to be short, but not too short, on the top.
How to:
- To begin, apply a little bit of good mousse to the hair.
- Once you apply the gel, spike the top front hair upwards – use your hands to create the fringe and not a comb.
- The fringe will stay only if the gel or mousse used is good enough to hold it in place.
The spikes need not be very sharp in the edges, as they would’ve been in the case of the porcupine spikes.
Occasion: Casual, everyday
Face type: People with strong cheekbones and jawlines, and short foreheads
Hair type: Straight, short
Celebrities: Daniel Radcliffe, David Beckham
Expert tip: This style looks really good with short hair.
9. Wavy Shag
Shaggy hair is cool, especially if your boy is a teenager. This hairstyle is just what your boy needs to make his curls work for him. If the hair is wavy, a little bit of gel is required to get this style. The hair should have a consistent volume all around the head. The hairstyle gives you a messy, casual look.
How to:
- To style, shampoo and rinse the hair.
- Tousle the hair using your fingers and dry it with a towel or a blow dryer.
- Do not comb it when it is wet, or the shaggy look would be lost after the hair dries.
Occasion:
Casual, everyday
Face type: Round face with high cheekbones, high foreheads
Hair type: Medium curly
Celebrities: Orlando Bloom, Avan Jogia
Expert tip: If your hair is not very curly, using a comb often to brush the hair can prevent the wavy look.
10. Samurai Bun

One of the best hairstyles for boys with medium to long hair, the Samurai Bun style is easy to achieve. Your hair should be at least six inches in length to get the bun. You will need a hair tie and some styling gel.
How to:

- Smooth the top hair and pull it back from the forehead to the back, for the tail.
- Knot the ponytail – pull the tail back up and fold it on the top with the help of a hair band.

How to:
- You can achieve this style by natural division of hair.
- Part the hair at the left or right side and comb it to the opposite side.
- Brush the hair on either side to keep it in place. You may not need a styling gel or lotion to achieve that if your boy’s hair is straight.

Occasion: Casual, school year

The length of the hair is between 0.5 to 1.5 inches. Ideally, the hair on the sides and the back is tapered off to different lengths, which is also called boys fade haircut.
How to:

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do boys get fluffy hair?
The simplest way of getting fluffy hair is to blow-dry it upside down (flip your hair upside down and blow-dry it with a boar bristle brush to give it the ideal fluffy appearance). You may also use heat rollers to plump up your strands, use dry shampoo, and frequently tease your hair to make it fluffy. The teasing technique makes it easier to comb your hair backward, adding volume to make it appear fuller.
2. Should guys wet their hair every day?
There is no set rule for how often a guy should wet their hair. The frequency of washing hair depends on several factors, including hair type, lifestyle, and personal preference. If a guy has oily hair, they may need to wash it daily. If they have drier hair, they may only need to wash it every few days. It’s important to listen to your hair and scalp and wash it when it feels dirty or greasy. Overwashing can strip the hair of natural oils, leading to dryness and damage. It’s also important to use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to avoid stripping the hair of moisture.
3. What is the eBoy haircut called?
This hairstyle category includes long strands of hair on top of the head, characterized by a middle part and styled to resemble curtains.
4. What are some maintenance tips for boys’ haircuts?
To regularly maintain your child’s haircut, give them trims every eight to 12 weeks. Use child-friendly shampoo, conditioner, and hair oils to maintain the health of their hair and help them wash it regularly to keep it clean. You may also teach them basic styling techniques like combing and using hair gel to make them more independent and confident about their appearance.
The hairstyles for boys should suit their hair type. Be it curly, cute, or long hair, the hairstyle should suit the face and bring a refreshing look. However, there are some more things to consider when picking a hairstyle, including the shape of the face, the hair texture, and the mood or look you aim to achieve. If you do not consider these factors, your boy might not be happy with your choice of hairstyle for him. Also, take their opinion before choosing any of the above-listed hairstyles.
