Latest Trendy Asian & Korean Hairstyles For Men

Finding The Right Style


Growing up as an Australian born Chinese kid, I've always had trouble finding the right style for my hair. When it comes to hair trends, Caucasian styles tend to be difficult to replicate simply because of different face types and hair textures.
However, it's not the end of the world. When life gives you lemons? Make some lemonade!
For Asian men, there are many options for us out there. Don't give in to the stereotypical Asian bowl cut, there are in fact lots more that we can achieve with our hair. But make sure that style fits you!

 Short And Slick

  Starting off with a more mature look, we have a cool hairstyle suited for a business meeting or a semi-formal party. The techniques for this style is quite simplistic, with the hardest part being the fringe/bangs. This style can be achieved using some strong wax applied backwards with finger (apposed to a comb) to create a natural look.


Dandy Medium Fringe Up

 This style features thin sides and back. The crown of the hair is left fairly thick to create a dandy look. In this particular instance, the hair is permed around the crown to create the extra texture. The fringe/bangs are lifted up using wax to create more volume.

 



Two Block Cuts

This particular style has become a crowd favourite with young Asian men. I see many guys around my university with varies of this style. The Two Block Cut usually involves the sides and lower back being shaved or cut very short and thin, while leaving the crown of the hair at varied length.
What's great about the Two Block Cut is that you can be very flexible on how you want to style it. You could keep the fringe straight, up, or even curl it to create a more "hipster" look.
