The most popular hipster haircuts for men build on old favorites with new trends. Most of these haircuts for men have their roots in classic men’s hair styles but add modern finishes.
Some of the most popular styles are side parts, slick backs, fade haircuts, undercuts, tapers and a few short haircuts too.
Facial hair is another definitive feature of hipster hair. If you have the facial hair but nothing else, grow out that beard and shave the head. A handlebar mustache is also a definite hipster look.
