1. The Classic Taper: A Timeless Choice

Perfect for: Grooms, best men, and any formal attendee

The classic taper is subtle, polished, and timeless. With neatly trimmed sides and a little length on top, this style offers a clean and versatile look that suits both modern and traditional weddings.

2. The Slick Back: Sophisticated and Bold

Perfect for: Formal evening events or themed weddings
Best for: Medium to long hair

If you want to turn heads, the slick back is a sleek, bold option that screams confidence. This look pairs especially well with tuxedos and dinner jackets.

3. Textured Crop: Stylish Yet Understated

Best for: Short to medium hair, oval or square face shapes

Want something low-maintenance yet stylish? A textured crop is a popular modern cut that adds character and edge to your outfit without looking too done-up.

The side part is the definition of sophistication. It’s neat, formal, and easy to maintain. Whether you’re at a formal event or a ceremony, this style never disappoints.
