Need a new hairstyle? Here’s our handpicked collection of 10 of the best hairstyles for men with straight hair.

While the internet is full of guides for different men’s hair types, straight hair often gets overlooked because most people assume it’s a simple hair type that’s easy to work with.

And while straight hair has its advantages, just like any hair type, it also has problem areas.

To be clear, we’re talking about hair that is naturally straight, not straightened hair. Straight hair has no wave or curl pattern and tends to either stick up or lie flat.

Because it grows without bending a lot, straight hair is robust. This means it can be styled quite aggressively without losing its structure (and it’s also more resistant to the elements).

Straight hair tends to be shiny since natural oils can travel more easily along the strands. While this can result in hair with a nice natural shine, that shine can make the hair look oily if left unchecked. (For that reason, you’ll want to avoid any oily hair products.)

For the most part, straight hair works best with short or medium-length hairstyles. You can rock long straight hairstyles, but they’re much harder to style well, and they’re also not as popular.
