#1: Short Wavy Hair with High Skin Fade

A great choice for thick wavy hair, this haircut doesn’t require excessive effort to style it: just brush your fringe back and use some pomade for a sleek yet textured finish. However, you will probably need to visit a barbershop at least every 4-5 weeks to maintain this style fresh and clean.

#22: Faux Curly Mohawk and Skin Fade

One of the best features of curly and wavy hair is its ability to hold shape and plenty of volume. Ask your hairdresser or barber to leave longer strands on the top and go for a low fade on the sides to embrace your natural texture.

#23: Modern Mullet with Choppy Fringe for Wavy Hair

Short, classic sides and full, messy back perfectly represent the good old concept of the mullet cut: business at the front, party at the back. This haircut is literally made for wavy hair but if you prefer a more defined finish, use some hair cream or pomade.

#24: Classic Taper Cut for Curly Hair

If you are a person who has curly or wavy hair, you know better than we do how tricky it can be to find the right shape of the haircut. This, however, doesn’t mean that a classic tapered cut won’t work for you. Just make sure the sides are short enough to look tidy, while the top, on the opposite, is longer.
