If you're a guy who wants to look good without having to devote time styling your hair, there is a low-maintenance haircut out there that is perfect for you. On top of saving you time and stress, there are numerous trendy options for men’s cuts that will have you looking and feeling good. Here are some of the best low-maintenance men's haircuts to try out in 2023.
Crew Cut
The crew cut is a classic haircut that has been around for over a century. While the origins of this style are debatable, the name crew cut comes from its use by college rowers in the 1920’s. It remains a popular haircut for men of all backgrounds, from military personnel to athletes, and more.
For a crew cut, the hair on top of the head is short length, while the sides and back of the head are tapered very short. The look can be styled in different ways based on your personal preferences.
This is a timeless low-maintenance cut that is perfect for men of all ages. It is particularly favored by athletes who want a style that will look good no matter the situation while remaining light and comfortable during physical activity.
Skin Fade
If you like the fade of a crew cut but want to do something different with the top, you’ve got options. The skin fade tapers the hair on the sides and back of the head very short, and then blends the fade into longer hair on top. The longer hair on top can be styled in a myriad of ways, allowing you to really express your own personal style with cuts like the Faux hawk to a Pompadour, and everything in between. Depending on the top you choose, this might require a bit more maintenance every day.
Buzz Cut
The buzz cut is the most low-maintenance haircut there is. This style involves cutting the hair on the entire head very short, almost to the skin.
It's a classic men’s cut that has been around for a very long time and is seeing a resurgence in 2023. The buzzcut is perfect for guys who want a simple, clean look with zero maintenance beyond getting it cut. Just remember to grab a hat for those winter months!
Short Caesar Cut
The short Caesar cut, sometimes referred to as the Roman haircut, is an easy-to-maintain haircut that is perfect for guys who want a modern low-maintenance style.
This cut starts with a fade on the sides and back of the head, followed by a top cut of either short or medium length. Traditionally the top of the Caesar cut is styled forward over the brow, though there are options based on your personal hair type and preference, with great-looking options for curly hair and straight hair alike.
As a bonus, this is a great haircut for men with thinning hair since it doesn’t require particularly thick hair to look great, and can even cover a receding hairline!
