Sometimes going regular and keeping things essential works better than having flashy hair.

What Is A Regular or Normal Haircut

If you go to a barber and ask for a regular haircut, chances are you will get some short sides and a trim on top. That is it. There is no added science to it. A regular haircut requires no special effort as a low fade or high fade does.

The only deviation you can look for is choosing the style based on the shape of your head. If you are used to going to the same barber all of your life and just saying: “Give me the regular,” you will not make a mistake.

How to Style and Maintain Regular Haircut

Styling a regular haircut and keeping it is a piece of cake. Not only is it easy to get one, but you will not require any specific effort to keep it long-term.

Step 1 – Choice time

As with any haircut, you should start by choosing one based on your facial features. It works best when you figure out the shape of your head and face and go with your strengths.

Step 2 – Shorten the sides and top

The basic way to style a regular haircut is to shorten the sides and take a little bit off the top. Nothing too extravagant is needed, you may only decide to add a part or to comb over your hair in a specific direction and that’s it.

Step 3 – Touch-ups

You are still going to need some regular touch-ups. A lot fewer of them than you usually need to do with some different and more extravagant hair.

Step 4 – Style a bit

With regular hair comes regular maintenance and product use. You can shampoo it two to three times a week and you may decide not to add any products. If you want to style it a bit, gel or hair clay will do the trick.
