Here’s the downlow, if you’re a guy in 2024, you might’ve noticed that fades and clean haircuts are out and longer, more lived in hairstyles are in.
In this article, we’re going to split up the most popular hairstyles for men by age group, so you have a good idea of what’s trending and what’s not.
18-24
If you’re in this age bracket, you already know how many of your peers are opting for classic hairstyles from the 90s. Think about the cast of ‘Boy Meet’s World’.
Hairstyles in this age bracket lean towards longer but they’re still very clean and tidy in certain ways, the best example being a clean taper but a messy and lived in top.
Besides 90’s style hair, you’ll also see plenty of mullets and wavy hairstyles.
25-35
In this age bracket, you’re seeing a very similar trend of ‘lived in hair’ but you do see a lot more variety. It’s not rare to see ‘messy buzzcuts’ and early 2000’s spiked looks (like Brad Pitt from Fight Club) but the same trends of 90’s curtains, still exist, as well as mullets and tapers.
The biggest thing about men’s hair in 2024 is that guys want to wake up, and head out without spending a ton of time using pomades and sprays to get a picture perfect hairstyle.
35+
For guys in this age bracket, you’re going to see a lot of classic men’s cuts as well as some modern styles, that are just more ‘mature’. The best example of this is the 80’s “business man hairstyle” (think Patrick Bateman).
You’ll still see loads of side parts and cleaner looks in this age bracket, but longer hairstyles are making a huge comeback too.
