The Messy Hairstyle Guide

Here is a list of some popular and handsome messy hairstyles that you can try depending on the length of your hair. Have a look!

1. Messy Hairstyles for Short Hair

Men with short hair are mostly baffled with what hairstyle to wear, considering the limited options they have. But, as we said, messy hairstyles are for everyone, and here’s your list of hairstyles that you can try and rock in your short hair:

  • Short messy hair with bangs

Short, messy, and fringey just cannot go wrong together! Pair your short, layered hair with bangs, and rock the look.

  • Short spiky hair

A high fade or an undercut on the sides couples with short spiky hair can be your hairstyle if you are looking for something stylish, yet something that wouldn’t take too long to set up. For styling spiky hair, it’s quite easy if you use hair wax or a strong pomade, on damp hair. You can also use a matte product for textured, natural-looking spikes. These products will ensure that you do not have to spend too long only on setting your hair.

  • Messy crop top

Want to go for something that can easily be styled into messy as well as slick and refined? Well, we would suggest you go for a messy crop top. While a crop top looks extremely dapper with messy hair, it can be refined into a slick hairstyle within minutes, using the right hair product. Keeping the hair of the crop a bit longer is generally advisable because they bring out the best of the look.  A crop top fade or a two-length crop top are also good options you can choose from.

  • Fringes

A short, messy hair fringe looks the best on curly hair, and also, a well-groomed beard is just a cherry on the cake. Got curly hair, and frustrated with managing them? Short, messy fringes can be your hairstyle. You can go for an undercut or a skin fade on the sides while keeping the front hair a little longer.
