If you are starting to loose hair or if it is not as thick as it used to be you should not worry because there are still many hairstyles for balding men.
Balding hair is annoying and saddening, but in most cases, there is nothing you can do about it, and so the best thing is to work around it.
And for this to be possible, you need to get creative and come up with more inventive styles that do not reveal the balding or do not make it appear worse.
To help you with this here is a gallery of 85 different hairdos that every balding man can try out.
# 1 Casual Layered Brush Back
This style is ideal for a man who’s balding is in the early stages and to create it he only needs a neat trim, some side parts, and finish by brushing back the strands in subtle layers.
# 2 Smooth Slick Back
For this one, you will not even need any trimming because you only have to brush back your short strands and maybe give them a slight lift at the front just to spice up the look.
# 3 Short and Uniform
The neatness of this haircut will draw all the attention away from your balding hair. It entails chopping the strands very short and in a uniform length before finishing with a simple line-up to enhance the neatness.
# 4 Comb Over with Side Part and Taper Fade
This comb over style will work for most balding men, and the good thing about it is that it will allow you to maintain a longer hair than most others.
To create it you should chop your strands to a couple of inches, create a side-part and finish by combing over the strands to the side. You should also taper the sides and back to give the design a nice finish.
# 5 Thin and Faded
These strands are not only balding, but they are also thin. However, they have an inventive style that entails fading and sweeping them frontwards. And if you pair this with a full beard you will look magnificent.
# 6 Brushed Back and Tapered Waves
Wavy hair is perfect for balding men as it makes it hard to notice the receding hairline. In this design, it combines with the tapered strands to create an eye-catching haircut.
# 7 Short with Bald Fade
A bald fade on the sides and some short fine strands on the crown will help draw attention away from your receding hairline. Apart from this, the hairdo also has a lovely ginger shade that adds some elegance to the look.
# 8 Swept Back and Layered
If you have a medium size hair, you can try this beautiful hairdo, and the good thing about it is that it is very straightforward.
To create this headdress, you only need to trim the ends of your strands, gel them and finish by sweeping them back in layers.
# 9 Tapered Flat Top with Line Up
The spiky look of this flat top design is fantastic, and it also has a lovely tapered design that finishes with a smooth line up on the sides to create an elegant haircut.
# 10 Funky Side Sweep
You can still maintain some length on your hair even if you are balding. This style is a perfect example of this and to wear it you should create a mild side part and use it to sweep the strands to the sides and finish by cutting their ends to make them blunt.
# 11 Smooth Side Parting
You don’t want attention on your thinning and receding hairline. So, smooth it down so its thinness looks intentional with a side parting that looks classy.
# 12 Textured Curls
Curls add texture and volume to a balding head. You can spread them out to cover any balding areas, and no matter what you do, the curls look smart and casual at the same time.
# 13 Quiff Comb-Over Fade
A fade hides any balding on the sides while a quiff adds volume and hides it on top of the head. Filling out the look with a thick beard shows you can still rock hair – just less of it on your head.
# 14 High Fade Slick Back
Some people have a natural mature hairline without recession. Pretend you’re one of them, have confidence in yours and slick back the rest of your hair to show it off. An accompanying high fade disguises thin or balding sides.
# 15 Comb Forward with Fade
Strategically combing your hair over the receding areas can only do so much. Add a fade so people think the thick-to-thin is an all-over texture choice.
# 16 Buz Cut Bristles
A buzz cut is so short that people don’t really notice the balding. Pair it with a much thicker beard and people will be further distracted from the issue.
# 17 Thin, Short, Greying Comb-Oer
Let your natural grey shine but add some color on top to add dimension. Brush the thickest part of your hair over any receding on the sides and it looks so natural that nobody would know you’re balding.
# 18 Tall Bristles
The balding is obvious here, yet it doesn’t look bad. Embrace the thin hair and let it stand, adding volume where it can. Keep the thick sides shorter so you still look neat.
# 19 Ultra-Curly
Earlier we established that curls hide balding very well. Go all in and get a perm, or rock your natural super curly hair. Letting it go grey and painting it with a textured beard helps keep the focus off bald spots.
# 20 Small Pompadour & Fade
Faded sides mean you have no worries there. On top, go for a slick-back and pompadour combination. It results in a thinner pompadour that hides your receding hairline and looks classy.
# 21 Fade and Braid
The smooth fade on the sides of this haircut is enough to make it look fantastic, but the braid is still vital to the style as it makes it look trendy.
# 22 Choppy Short Comb Over
You should not waste a lot of time trying to hide your balding hair, and instead, you should look for ways to style it inventively.
Although it is still very clear that the strands in this design are thinning, they have a lovely side part and a stylish comb-over that makes the man look very adorable.
# 23 Clipper Taper and Side Sweep
The clipper taper design on the sides of this haircut is fantastic, and it enhances the appearance of the side sweep and side part on the crown to create an exquisite headdress.
# 24 Easy and Smooth Curls
A simple scissor trim and a good gel or any other quality hold product are all that you need to create this elegant hairdo. And to form it you should cut the ends of your curly strands, gel them and then finish with a moderate taper on the sides.
# 25 Textured Modern Pompadour
The shape of this pompadour and the texture of the strands are what make this a fabulous hairdo. To create it you only need to give your long textured strands in the crown a slight lift and brush back and finish with a zero fade on the sides.
# 26 Stylish Slick Back
This haircut will work for any man regardless of the fullness of his hair. It is a very simple design with a long top and short sides that you should style with a side part and a slick back.
# 27 Wavy Blondie Bangs
The wavy design of the bangs over the forehead is fantastic as it helps to hide the balding look of the hair. However, these strands also have a lovely blonde shade and a smooth fade on the sides that add to the beauty.
# 28 Short Pomp and Undercut
Here is another modern version of the pompadour but this one is shorter than the traditional one. It also has a lovely undercut on the sides, and you should brush it back over the undercut to form a stylish headdress.
# 29 Rockabilly Style Pomp
A pompadour will make you look great regardless of the thinness of your strands. This particular one has a rockabilly style that makes it look old school, a tapered back and a crisp side part line.
# 30 Front Swept Short Spikes
This hairdo involves chopping your strands into some short spikes that you should style by sweeping to the front and also by giving them a high fade on the sides.
