The best boys hairstyles are simple and low maintenance. Most boys love to be active and don’t want hair to get in their way, but boys hairstyles can still be stylish. There are good-looking but easy-to-maintain options for every length hair.
Medium Length Boys Hairstyles
This is a great utilitarian boys hairstyle because when the hair is messed up, the layers make it less noticeable.

For medium-length boys’ hair, a popular hairstyle is to layer the hair from between 1 to 2 inches all over (shorter on the sides, longer on top) with a short bang.

One variation of the buzz cut is to leave certain areas of the head, such as the crown, longer, and spike them up with hair gel.
Longer Cuts
Longer hair for boys is currently making a comeback as well. Long shags are especially popular because their varied-length layers actually look better when they are messed up.

The long shag can be done with bangs or without and looks fine when air-dried naturally but can be blown dry for a more polished look on special occasions.

It doesn’t matter which haircut you choose for your son. Each of these can be made original. Your boy’s own individual style and taste can be accommodated, easily.
