How can you make your hair more attractive?

  1. 1
    Get a haircut that suits your face shape. Sometimes all your wavy hair needs is a little pick-me-up to look fantastic. Asking the barber for a cut that matches your facial structure is a great start, as this will accentuate your handsome features. Check out these common haircuts for each face shape:[1]
    • Square: A faded undercut with top layers emphasizes short waves
    • Round: 5 to 6 inches (13 to 15 cm) on top with a clean fade gives a tousled look
    • Oval: A fade with sharp details adds definition to the top
    • Heart: Side-swept bangs emphasize the natural curve of waves
    • Oblong: 4 to 5 inches (10 to 13 cm) of length lets waves fall naturally
    • Diamond: A soft scissor cut adds volume and layers
  2. 2
    Make sure your hair is clean. Grooming and taking care of yourself is an instant attractiveness booster.[2] When your hair looks or feels greasy, hop in the shower and wash those locks with a nice smelling shampoo and conditioner.
    • Opt for washing your hair two or three days out of the week rather than every day.[3]
    • Washing your hair every day can strip it of its natural oils, making your locks get oiler faster.
    • If you need a midweek pick-me-up, try a dry shampoo as it can help put life back into your hair the day before a wash.

    Keep your hair healthy by caring for it. The last thing a crush or partner wants is to be running their hands through dry and damaged hair. Take care of your golden locks by following these tips and tricks:[4]

Ways to Style Wavy Hair on Guys

  1. 1
    Push your hair back with gel or hairspray. Your locks are naturally gorgeous, so embrace them! Rub some styling gel, mousse, or spray between your palms, and run your fingers through your hair. This will create a sexy, tousled look.[5]
  2. 2
    Spray your hair with sea salt. Sea salt spray adds volume and texture that’s totally swoon-worthy. Simply spritz longer hair with some product and comb it back with your hands.[6] You can even use sea salt spray as a more natural alternative to hairspray.
  3. 3
    Part your hair down the middle. Styling hair with a middle part is super trendy and gives off an innocent vibe. Plus, the style emphasizes the natural curve of your waves. If you have long layers or curtain bangs, all the style takes is a comb and some brushing.[7]
  4. 4
    Taper the sides and fluff the top. A faded side with a choppy layered top adds edge and pairs nicely with a short beard. Simply keep the hair around your ears military short and tousle the top with gel or hairspray.
  5. 5
    Pull your hair over to one side. If you have longer hair or bangs, use a brush or your fingertips to move it up and over to one side. This will accentuate your jawline and give fluidity to those sexy waves.
  6. 6
    Keep your hair long and messy. Everyone will be swooning over you and this sexy look, and all you have to do is roll out of bed! Run your fingers through your hair, opting for a hair oil if your waves get frizzy. This style works best with chin and shoulder-length hair.[8]
  7. 7
    Hold your curls back in a messy bun. Who doesn’t fall head-over-heels for a man bun? Pull those luscious locks out of your face if you’re going to the gym, doing hard work, or simply not wanting to deal with it. Believe us; it’ll look perfect.[9]
  8. 8
    Layer the top and fade the sides. Ask your stylist for 2 inches (5.1 cm) layers and a sharp mid fade to get an outrageously edgy and sexy look. All you’ll need to do is roll out of bed, run some gel through your hair, and walk out the door.

What do you do if your crush doesn’t like your wavy hair?

  1. Try changing up your hairdo if your crush doesn’t like wavy hair. Style your hair differently by parting your hair in the opposite direction or gelling it back in a way you haven’t before. Don’t be afraid to try something new. You may just find a look you adore!
    • Confidence is key, and you should only switch things up if you want to.
    • If anyone pressures you into changing your appearances, it may be time to move on.
    • Remember, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and everyone has a “type” or “standard.”[10] Chances are, if someone doesn’t like your hair, you’ll meet someone who does soon enough.
