I’m male 16, living in Iran for clarification. (English is not my first language so sorry for any mistakes)
I have always struggled with my hair style and look, as I always cut my hair very short and uniform all around because of strict school dress code and policies.
But as I’m getting older I’m starting to want to improve myself and have better mental and physical health.
I’ve become self-conscious of face and looks after the pandemic specifically because I feel left out of many things compared to my peers. One of which is my hair style and cut.
I’m not sure how should I cut, style and maintain my hair. As I mentioned previously I always cut it short and uniform and I showered every 2-3 days, so I’d like to know how to maintain the hair.
But most importantly I don’t know what to tell my barber?
Sorry for the rant and long post.
You haven’t told us what kind of hair you have, so it’s impossible to recommend a cut. But given your ethnicity and age, I’m going to assume you have thick, dark, hair. If that’s the case then growing it out is the first step. If you want to be edgy then go for something spikey and layered. Billy Idol has always had badass hair his entire life. Even as an old dude he looks very fashionable. If you go for that type of cut then adding some highlights will give it a lot of depth. If you want something more professional and current then go with a side part with good texturing and length, here’s an example. That example haircut has just about everything a good haircut should have. It’s stylish, layered, well taken care of, and flexible.
