The Ultimate Guide to Haircuts for Men with Receding Hairlines

Michael Misurelli • April 17, 2024

A receding hairline is a common problem for many men. Unfortunately, this issue can be a nightmare, making any man feel discouraged or embarrassed. When a receding hairline first begins, it may go mostly unnoticed, but it becomes harder to hide as it develops. Fortunately, men still have options to combat a receding hairline through style and their haircut choice.



Let’s look more closely at some great hairstyles for those with a receding hairline. We will also cover some treatment options, such as scalp micropigmentation (SMP), that can help reduce the issue's impact.

Best Hairstyles for a Receding Hairline

Buzz Cut

The buzz cut is a classic for any man with hair loss issues. It leans into the current hairline and maintains a consistent length across the head. Not only does the buzzcut help hide recession, but it also delivers a bold and stylish look. 

Crew Cut

The crew cut is a staple among men, even those without hair loss issues. This hairstyle leaves the longer hair in the front while getting shorter as it goes up the head. The longer hair in the front helps to hide any recession, but this cut will work better for those with good scalp and crown hair coverage.

Business Cut

The business cut is another hairstyle that leaves longer hair on the top and front of the head. The sides are cut down much further to create a professional appearance while directing attention away from the hairline. 

Side Part

The side part is the perfect style for hiding the hairline and spots of thinning. The top is left long and parted to the side, allowing it to be expertly angled over spots of concern. This cut will enable men to work with the areas where their hair grows the best.

Grown Out

Some men may not prefer having long hair, but it can be excellent for hiding thinning spots for those who can rock it. The long locks can be swept to the side or thrown back to cover wherever the problem areas may be. The best part is that numerous long hairstyles can be tried. 

Slicked Back

There are many variations to the slicked-back look. It can feature longer sides, an undercut, or faded sides. The strength of this haircut is that it takes attention away from the hairline and directs it toward the top of the head. Additionally, it offers a stylish and professional look with a little bit of edge. 

Shaved

The shaved head look may not be for every man, but it takes the power away from the receding hairline or thinning. Some men find that embracing their hair loss by shaving it off brings new empowerment and acceptance of the condition. 

How SMP Can Restore the Hairline

Scalp micropigmentation is a non-invasive treatment method that can help restore the natural hairline look. It is essentially a form of tattoo that creates the appearance of hair follicles. This can help restore the confidence that a receding hairline strips away.
