Skater boys often have looks that are inspiring and relaxed, with effortless style. Skater haircuts are those that allow skaters, bikers and even surfers express their personalitites. Whether you are going skateboarding and wanna look awesome or just are inspired by skater aesthetics, this roundup will tell you what hairstyle to choose for an ultimate look.
Short Skater Hairstyles
Short haircuts and hairstyles are a perfect solution for every skater because they prevent hair from covering the eyes or the face and don’t block the clear view. The most popular solutions are French crop, buzz cut and crew cut. I strongly recommend to add various types of fade to such cuts or accent them with bold colors to make the look ultimate. Short cuts are very low-maintenance and don’t require styling, they are functional and fit every type of hair.
The buzz cut is a perfect idea if you value form and function over style and want something practical. It will prevent your hair from covering your eyes, and if you add fade or a bold color, it will give you an edgy look.
The undercut makes your brushed back top look wow. The top is styled back while wet and can be secured with pomade.
The crew cut is the simplest cut ever, suitable for all hair types. But keep in mind that helmet-style hair is out of trend, and ask for a high fade.
The French crop is one of the simplest haircuts you can get, so elevate the look with a high skin fade and a strict fringe in the front.
An angular fringe is a bold choice if you prefer bold retro and a bit emo style. Trim the ends of your fringe at an angle, texture the bangs to nail the look.
Spiky hair with fade is a hairstyle, in which point cut hair on top contrasts the mid skin fade. You will need a clay product to style your hair.
Medium Skater Hairstyles
If you feel like growing your hair longer and are ready to style it from time to time at least, choose something longer than buzz cut. Here you can take a look at quiff, various types of hawks and faux hawks and fluffy edgar cut. Again add mid or high fade or at least tapered sides to elevate the look and get some products like clay or wax ones to style your hair. One more idea to add a bit of edge is rocking long side bangs, which will look a bit emo but that isn’t a very practical idea when skateboarding or you will have to keep it in place with accessories.
Choppy shag is a classic skater haircut that shows off much texture. It features both length and layers and doesn't requre any styling.
Classic part haircut with long bangs is a nice idea for anyone, and the longer bangs you get, the more personality your haircut will show.
How to accent the curls? Go for a mid-fade to emphasize your natural curls on top. This is a bold and edgy look without getting too wild.
This bold haircut is faux hawk with high fade and it will give you an edgy look, whatever you style it: up or down. A high fade elevates the cut and creates an ultimate look.
If you want a faux hawk but a subtler version of it, consider tapered and not faded sides. This will soften the look without sacrificing the style.
Fluffy Edgar is a trendy hairstyle for a skater who loves volume. The curly hair on top is left textured, and the tapered sides bring the edge.
Long Skater Hairstyles
Love your mane long? Then choose something bold for longer hair. Of course, the easiest idea is just to let your hair grow, as a men bob or something longer, it will look especially cool if you have wavy or curly hair. Shaggy cuts including wolf cut are very much welcome to add texture to your look and they don’t require styling. One more idea is a curtain or block cut, which is always a good idea that adds softness to the features. Get inspired, guys!
The messy long flow is for those who prefer longer hair and a slight beach feel. Let your hair grow in all directions and make it shorter from time to time at the barber's. Style with sea salt spray if you want.
Mullet is one of the top haircuts right now, and if you rock one, you will look edgy. For a more modern look, you may add fade or tapered sides.
Quiff boasts of height and texture and turns heads. When you want, you can style it with pomade to impress everyone.
The short cut is a great solution to keep your hair off the face, while a longer top with a messy fringe will give you a messy touch that wows.
