Top 8 Summer Haircuts for Men

Attention! If you want to look and feel cool in the heat, a military-inspired High & Tight haircut shaves the back and sides of your hair leaving some blending action up top for personality. You’ll need at least three inches of hair on top to achieve this look. Start with freshly washed hair or use a spray bottle to dampen your hair and then comb it down to remove tangles. 

From movie stars to racing car drivers, the Caesar haircut is back in fashion and a perfect summer style. This cut features short, horizontal bangs and a tapered look on the sides and back.

Side part to no part, our Wahl^® Master Barbers rate the Undercut #1 this summer. The key: style it to suit your distinct look whether you’re sporting a beard or not. Go on, give it a try!

With military swagger, the Fade Cut continues to be favored for its masculine and clean good looks. Plus, it is easy to do. Find out how now.

It’s not for everyone but it is a sportier style for summer. Straight-cut bangs, shaved sides and a little texture on top. Style it to suit your hair and face shape.

1. Cut Back on Shampoo 
Hot weather strips natural oils fast, and washing too often makes it worse. Limit shampoo to a few times a week and use a simple rinse in between to keep hair fresh without drying it out. 
 
2. Hair Prep Before Swimming 
Pool chemicals and saltwater can leave hair brittle and dull. Run your hair under clean water first so it soaks that up instead of pool chlorine or salt. 
 
3. Go Light on Styling Products 
Heavy waxes and pomades don’t play well with heat and sweat. Trade them in for light creams or texturizing sprays that keep your hair in place without feeling greasy.
