Male Medium-Length Slicked-Back Hairstyle

Added: 30 Mar 2026
Our model looks amazing with this modern, stylish, medium‑length style with a swept‑back, textured top and shorter, tapered sides that blend into a subtle under‑layer. The hair on top is combed back and has a soft, voluminous finish, giving it a modern, polished look with a hint of retro flair. The front features longer, side‑swept layers that frame the forehead, while the back is kept neat and structured, allowing the overall shape to maintain balance and movement. A light beard and groomed stubble complement the cut, enhancing the masculine, refined esthetic. This cut suits oval, square, or heart‑shaped faces best. On an oval face it adds balanced volume and highlights the natural symmetry. For a square face the longer top softens strong jawlines and the tapered sides reduce angularity. A heart‑shaped face benefits from the forward‑swept fringe that draws attention away from a broader forehead and emphasizes the cheekbones. The style works well for individuals who want a versatile, fashionable look that can be dressed up with earrings or kept casual with everyday wear.

To tie this look together, our model has gone with a bit of facial hair around his chin, lips and jawline. This helps to define his strong jawline while softening it at the same time to ensure it balances the overall look. You will need to maintain your your facial hair to ensure it does not overgrow. Finish off with some aftershave to keep your hair soft and your skin healthy and you ready to show off your medium-length cut!
