Sometimes it seems like women have all the fun when it comes to stylish cuts and color options. Fortunately, nowadays there are plenty of men's styles that allow self-expression while following the latest trends. Gone are the days when your cut is simply a number on the razor – today's styles, including the low fade, are artistic and truly worthy of a salon's work.

The low fade cut is an enduring hairstyle that has been around in various forms for generations. From the height of '80s greatness to today's more hipster vibe, the fade is here to stay. This usually means a style that starts out thick and thins out in a certain direction. There are dozens of options to choose from.

All hair types can create an undercut, whether it is straight hair or wavy hair. Ask your stylist to cut the hair “forward” so that the finished look frames the forehead and shows off the underside-focused style.

If you're blessed with thick locks, show them off with a blowout achieved by brushing damp hair as it dries. If your hair is prone to frizz, you can attach a diffuser to the hair dryer.
