Boys need to look cool when it comes time for back to school, too. One of the most popular boys’ hairstyles year-round is the tousled, shaggy look, like this one from Sweet Little Peanut . The best part? It is so easy that he can do it himself. The key is for it to look naturally messy.
What You’ll Need:
Brush
Styling Cream or Gel
How to:
Step 1: Brush the hair from the top and sides completely forward over the forehead and ears.
Step 2: Then, choose a product based on the thickness and length of the hair—thicker hair should use a gel, while thinner, shorter hair can use a styling cream says Cozy Friedman from Cozy’s Cuts for Kids in NYC. Dispense a dollop of styling product on your hands—a nickel-size to a quarter-size depending on the length of the hair—and spread the product evenly on your hands.
Step 3: Run hands through the hair from back to front, giving it a piece-y look and keeping it in place. So easy, so cool.
