While it may seem like women's haircuts and hairstyles offer the most variety, there are also several creative and innovative men's hairstyles that deserve just as much attention. One of the oldest and most popular hairstyles for men is inspired by the military.

Known as the high and tight haircut, this style is best described as faded or completely shaved on the sides and back, with a longer, but generally short, section of hair on top. If you're in the mood for a sharp new haircut, check out the styles below.

Dark hair is always quite flattering when it comes to showing off a faded hairstyle. Here you have a military style with a short Mohawk quiff that is incredibly neat and polished.

Add a little spice to your high and sleek hair by injecting some personality into your hairstyle. One way to pull it off is to include a cool, shaved side part and some longer hair on top, combed to one side, as seen here.
