Many of you might have noticed that by the time you hit your 35th birthday, the thickness of your hair starts to decline. And when you turn 50, you’ll be considerably balding. If you’re one of these unfortunate folks, wouldn’t you like to choose from the best hairstyles?

5 male pattern baldness hairstyles

Say goodbye to male pattern baldness. Check out the following 5 male pattern baldness hairstyles you can try without breaking your hair.

  1. The High and Tight Cut

If the illusion of thicker hair is what you’re aiming for then this sibling to the military crew cut can grant you the added volume you desire. The cut takes the length very short on top and even shorter on the back and sides. This will help to create some balance between the thinning hair around the crown and the denser hair elsewhere. Short hair on top will blend in thin patches so that they’re less noticeable.

  1. The Buzz Cut

Taking your hair down with the clippers to a uniform length all over is a great way to cater for a diminishing hairline while not going all out bald. If you were thinking about shaving your head but want to test the waters first this could be the trim you’ve been looking for.

  1. The Slicked-Back Undercut

While it may not be much good for disguising a receding headline, this undercut look is a great option if the offending area is at the crown of your head. The combed back length on top will cover any embarrassing bald spots once it’s styled.

  1. The Caesar Cut

The Caesar cut is ideal for men who have thin hair at the back. It won’t work with a receding hairline. That’s because to pull it off, you have to brush the front of your hair forward. You don’t have to wear it long and you certainly don’t want to have bangs cut bluntly into your hairline, but you do want some short texture that comes forward towards your face.

  1. Spiky Top Shadow Fade

A spiky top can hide a receding hairline. Fade the sides into a longer crown. Direct your hair up and forward. The height will mask any small areas that are thinning. Don’t go for this hairstyle if you have a large balding patch at the back of your head, though.

Hair loss prevention

Two out of three men are affected by male pattern baldness; with 40% experiencing noticeable hair loss by the time they are 35. Although you can’t reverse natural balding, you can protect hair from damage and try to keep it at bay. One of the effective ways for hair loss prevention is to do something about it while you still have some. If you’re wondering what you need to know for hair loss prevention, here are some tips.

  • Once you wash your hair, brush the hair gently and rather use a wide-toothed comb so that it does not pull out the hair.
  • Avoid harsh treatments done at the salon.
  • Avoid hot showers.
  • Avoid medicines that could trigger hair loss.
  • Protect the hair from sunlight by wearing a scarf or helmet (while riding a bike) or carrying an umbrella.
  • Stop smoking as it may cause baldness.

Conclusion

Male pattern baldness can be caused by a number of factors, including genes and hormones. Instead of trying to cover it up, embrace it.
