Tall people face many unique challenges, and finding the right haircut is one of them. Here's a quick guide to what looks good on both tall men and women - hopefully it's helpful as you develop your style as a tall individual!
Best Hairstyles for Tall Men
What to Avoid:
Spiky or tall hairstyles can add inches to your height and elongate your face. When tall and thin, it is better to have a hairstyle that compliments your body type instead of matching it.
What to Do Instead:
Shorter hairstyles with a textured hair on top suits tall men quite well. Medium length hairstyles that fall to the eyebrows or ears can also complement tall men as long as the hair doesn’t fall flat. These types of hairstyles look better with a bit a wave to your hair. The classic buzzcut goes well for almost anyone and provides a low maintenance option. Keep it simple!
Best Hairstyles for Tall Women
What to Avoid:
Short, pixie haircuts aren’t the best for tall, thin women because it gives little variety to your tall body type. Long, super straight hair also causes the same problem of elongating your already lengthy figure.
What to Do Instead:
Hairstyles that add more volume to your hair is the best option! This will flatter a slim face or figure. Try chin-length to medium length hair with soft waves, which will add more dimension to your look. You can also go with chunkier hairstyles if it fits your personality! Long bangs and layers work well for tall, slim women.
