This short, lightly textured style is characterised by a baby fringe that\u2019s swept forward. Inspired by the ancient Roman emperor Julius Caesar \u2013 who\u2019s said to have used it to disguise his receding hairline<\/a> \u2013 the Caesar haircut<\/a> is also handy to minimise a big forehead. It brings the hairline down in a natural-looking way, and\u00a0best of all, it\u2019s low maintenance<\/a> and will work with many different face shapes<\/a>.<\/p>\n The name \u2018buzz cut<\/a>\u2018 comes from the electric clippers used to achieve this short, sharp hairstyle, where the hair is cut to the same length all over the head. A number one or number two buzz cut is ideal to\u00a0minimise a bigger forehead, as it blends out the hairline, so there\u2019s a less defined border where the hair begins. The buzz cut doesn\u2019t work for all face shapes and works best for men with an oval face. Military and masculine, this cut is easy to maintain as you don\u2019t need to use any extra styling products.<\/p>\n The French Crop<\/a> is a popular style today, as it\u2019s versatile; you can adapt it for every face shape and personality. The hair is kept shorter at the back and sides and the fringe is brushed forward. Keeping the hair longer and falling forward hides your hairline, making this a strong choice for men with bigger foreheads.<\/p>\n Neat, minimalist and timeless, the crew cut<\/a> is a classic for a reason. It suits most face shapes and also flatters a widow\u2019s peak<\/a>, which longer styles tend to accentuate. Electric clippers are used to keep the hair tidy and tapered on the sides, leaving slightly more length on top and in the front. You can brush up this hair or add a little styling product to create some extra texture, but it\u2019s not usually necessary; the crew cut puts the focus on your face and takes it away from where your hairline falls.<\/p>\n This style works for a big forehead because it removes the hairline altogether. Visually, there\u2019s no way to tell where your forehead ends, and your hair begins. The clean shave is a great look for men with a moustache or full beard, as these draw the eye down, once again taking attention away from the forehead and balancing on the face. It\u2019s also a great look for men who wear glasses.<\/p>\n A longe fringe<\/a> \u2013 one that falls at or below the eyebrows \u2013 is a great style for men with big foreheads, as it completely hides the top third of the face. Layers help add dimension to this cut, making the fringe itself the focus and building volume at the top and front of the head. Ideal for those with more angular features, this type of fringe also balances out a pointed chin.<\/p>\n Blending the classic military haircut<\/a>\u00a0with a mid-fade, this is a polished look with vintage appeal. It works for all hair types \u2013 particularly straight hair.\u00a0The sides\u00a0are buzzed short with electric clippers, while the top is left longer and cut with scissors. The hair is then gradually blended to create a seamless gradient between the sides and top. Traditionally, this haicut is styled with gel to create a retro side part<\/a>; that\u2019s ideal for men with bigger foreheads, as it draws the eye across the head, instead of down the face.<\/p>\n Layers are essential to this relaxed, \u201890s-inspired look<\/a>. Having shorter layers in the front will frame your face, keeping the focus on your features \u2013 not your forehead. Meanwhile, the longer layers can make a short face seem longer and less top-heavy. This is a grungy look, so make sure your hair has a bit of texture and isn\u2019t too sleek.<\/p>\n When it comes to balancing out a big forehead, a little extra length goes a long way. While a mid-length fringe halves the size of your forehead, having longer hair makes your head seem wider.\u00a0These elements both balance the proportions of your face so that your forehead won\u2019t be as noticeable. This style works particularly well if your hair has a naturally wavy texture. Waves give the cut more movement and help to soften long or angular face.<\/p>\n Like the straight fringe, the side-swept fringe is a styling trick that makes your forehead look much smaller by keeping it covered. A side-swept fringe uses asymmetry to visually \u2018cut\u2019 your forehead in a diagonal line,\u00a0drawing the eye down to where the fringe ends, rather than up to the hairline. The side-swept fringe can be styled sleek for a more theatrical look, or textured to draw even more attention to the fringe itself, rather than to the forehead. The angles of this look distract from and minimise a big forehead.<\/p>\n Nothing looks sharper than a side part<\/a>.\u00a0Whether subtle and retro or a modern hard part<\/a> \u2013 where the parting gets shaved into the head \u2013 this is clean-cut and considered to be a style that means business. For men with a big forehead, a side part is a great choice because the eye looks to the parting first, then travels across the head following the direction of the hair.<\/p>\n The texture is key to a short and messy hairstyle. It\u2019s all about using the movement and direction of the hair to minimise and distract from the size of your forehead, without needing a fringe to hide it. All the attention will be on your hair instead!<\/p>\n This dynamic style relies on volume and movement to lift the gaze up and away from the face \u2013 and the forehead. Keeping a medium length<\/a> on top ensures you have plenty of hair to work with when you style it. Focus on creating natural-looking waves with plenty of texture and height; this look should seem effortless and laidback.<\/p>\n Like other fringes, the bowl cut<\/a> slices the forehead in half \u2013 usually at the mid-point between the hairline and the eyebrows \u2013 to make it seem smaller. A bowl cut fringe is blunt, uniform, sleek and full, and extends back around the head. When paired with an undercut<\/a>, it looks modern, fresh, and fashion-forward.<\/p>\n When choosing a hairstyle, it\u2019s important to consider your face shape. The right cut will make your features look more proportionate, and emphasise your best qualities \u2013 while minimising those you\u2019d rather hide. When it comes to men\u2019s hairstyles, there\u2019s a wide variety of creative ways to balance out a top-heavy face.
