23 Red Hot Looks To Consider Doing
1- Slicked Back Quiff
For red-headed men who rock a darker auburn shade, let your colour do the talking with this timeless slicked-back quiff. For a seamlessly graduated look around the back and the sides, simply ask your barber for a subtle fade. Ginger guys will easily pull off this look.
2 – Red Tousled Waves
Guys blessed with thick hair can get away with a little more length – ask your barber for subtle face-framing layers to get this curly ginger look. For perfectly imperfect beachy waves, simply spritz some sea salt spray on your locks and you’re ready to go! You will enjoy the straight forwardness, as well as the perfection of this look.
3 – Choppy Fringe
Harry Potter actor Domhnall Gleeson demonstrates the right way to sport a messy fringe, with blonde highlights adding texture to his natural ginger base colour. If you are a fan of Hollywood celebrities such as Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) or Dom, why not copy this English actor vibe?! Keep the look current by eschewing the comb and letting the natural texture take centre stage on top.
4. Auburn Buzz Cut
If you’re looking for something fresh for summer, you can still rock your natural texture with this simple buzz cut – just ask your barber for a No. 1 all over. Keep the look relaxed and cool by avoiding harsh lines and growing out your facial hair to add contours to your face. If you want to look like a true movie star, this is for you!
5 – Long On Top For Curly Hair
It’s one of the most popular men’s haircuts right now for a reason – long and curly on top with short back and sides is the perfect way to showcase your bright red hair. Whether your curls are all natural or permed, make sure you keep them moisturised with the right products for your texture. Natural red heads will easily pull off this look.
6 – Grown Out Scissor Cut
If you’re looking for something low maintenance, look no further than strawberry blonde actor Michael Fassbender. To achieve this look, ask your barber to swap the clippers for the scissors all over for a cool ‘grown out’ look. You will also look attractive with this cut even if you have freckles. The perfect finishing touch or ingredient when rocking this cut? With confidence!
7 – Tousled Red Man-Bun
The man-bun is still very much alive and kicking, so if you have long ginger hair try tying it back for a cool summer style. Bear in mind this look works best with straight-wavy textures, and for a truly louche face-framing look, tease a few pieces out. If you’re going for that Game of Thrones vibe, this is it!
8 – Extreme Auburn Quiff
If you’ve got longer hair but have thin-medium hair, a structural quiff may be the look for you. It looks great in all shades from light ginger to dark auburn, and you can play with the texture of the quiff to your heart’s content. If Kristofer Hivju or Tormund Giantsbane is your favorite ginger guys you can easily find inspiration with this look.
9 – Short Ginger Hair and Stubble
Another great look for people who have thinning hair, keep it simple with a subtle fade graduating to a longer textured section on top. Facial hair is best kept short with this look, with a 5 o clock shadow provided the perfect amount of edge to this timeless red men’s hairstyle. If you want to look like a true Irish actor even despite your old age, this look is universal to go for.
10 – Dreadlocks for Ginger Men
Who says you can’t rock dreadlocks with ginger hair? A word of warning – locks require a lot of care (moisture), so keep them in tip-top condition with this protective tied-up style. You will look like a true creative person or even a retro musician. In the end, Show off your hair texture in this updo for daily wear.
