How to style it:

To be fair, it’s really as easy as it looks, requiring no technical knowhow aside from a few simple rules. Just make sure you have at least 2-6 inches on top before tying it out.

For starters, get your hair wet first then towel dry until it’s damp. The amount of water in your hair is critical, too much and it will have an awfully low hold.

Once it’s damp, coat your hair with pomade. Grab your handy comb and guide your hand on backwards with it. Note, during the first slick back don’t do the sides, unless you’re going with the modern approach. After you make the first round, continue three to six more times until you reach perfection.

With that said, I’m going to show you a collection of the top 75 best slicked back hairstyles for men. You’ll discover everything from the true original classics to cuts with modern touches. If you’ve been thinking about going for this look, but have considered it be too long or short, don’t rule it out just yet. The truth is, there are so many variations possible that you can literally find a style that’s uniquely your own.
