A side part in a bro flow cut is one of the most popular hairstyles, also known as the men’s wing haircut. It adds structure and sophistication to the flow, especially for those with straight hair, creating a polished and distinguished appearance.

Naturally wavy hair is a perfect match for the bro flow, as those natural waves add a charming dimension to the flowing hair. “I’m always learning that hair can do some pretty cool stuff if you just ‘Let it live’,” says the creator of this fabulous wavy flow, Tommy Ransom from Seattle Ranson Studio.

Typically sported by athletes and skaters, this medium-length haircut is a favorite among baseball players because they can easily tuck their longer hair under a baseball cap during training or games.

To achieve a gravity-defying flow hairstyle, like the one by barber Brodie Raeside from Heavy Hands Barber Studio in Ilkeston, England, start with clean hair. Apply styling product suitable for your hair type, then use a blow dryer to lift and shape the hair upwards and towards the center. Finish with a firm hold spray for added stability.

Enhance your natural texture with a curly flow. Let your curly texture shine by keeping your hair well-moisturized and using styling products that enhance its shape and hold.

@kevinpaulmiller
If you like the bro flow vibe but think it’s a tad too dapper for your taste, pair it up with a beard! Whether you choose a full beard or a short and sleek one, it gives you a rugged, manly look that’s far from preppy. Plus, the side-swept hair nicely balances out the beard, ensuring your face doesn’t look overwhelmed.

“Periodic haircuts during a grow-out process are “make or break” or “save or shave” in this case,” believes Tommy Ransom from Seattle Ranson Studio. By keeping your hair trimmed at each appointment, you prevent split ends and let your hair grow smoothly until your next hair appointment.
@handsome_ransom
To make sure your wavy locks stay put all day long, start at the hairline and gently work your way backward, following the natural wave pattern. Use high-quality styling products for hold and volume, and you’ve got that effortlessly stylish look!

@heidinoh_styles
A textured flow haircut is a style characterized by deliberate texturing of the hair to create a more dynamic and voluminous appearance. After washing, add texture with a texturizing spray or mousse. Style your hair as desired, whether it’s tousled or structured, to achieve that effortlessly cool look.
@dencioaguilar

Keep the beard neatly groomed and in proportion to the length of your flow, ensuring it complements rather than overshadows your overall look. “A short beard leaves all the attention to the haircut,” explains further Leticia Souza, a hairstylist behind this look.

New York City stylist Sergio Slavnov offers this style “for men looking to sweep admirers off their feet.” To achieve a windswept bro flow, simply lift your flow hair with your fingers while using a sculpting foam mousse for added volume and texture.
@bestmenshaircutsnyc
Among trending flow haircuts for men, this middle-part style with neat layers is probably one of the most refined. To style it, use a quality hairbrush to ensure your hair flows smoothly, and apply a light-hold styling product to maintain a polished appearance.
@traceybowenbarber
If your hairstyle lacks dimension, consider shorter layers for added volume. Apply a volumizing product and blow-dry your hair to create the appearance of thicker, fuller locks.
