Viking haircut styles were inspired by the Nordic warriors who wore the hairstyles on the battlefield. These hairstyles have an edgy and rugged appearance. You can go for the man buns, undercuts with messy beards, or ponytails.
Whether you are or not a fan of the history channels on the TV, you probably have seen one or two men in these hairstyles. If you are not sure which Viking haircut to go for, here is a variety to choose from. Take a look.
1. Man Bun
A man bun is a straightforward Viking haircut style to wear. This style is standard because holding your hair up reduces the distractions free hair comes with. With the man bun style, your hair needs to be long enough to be held at the center. According to MensHaircuts, use a plastic or wooden comb to sweep it towards the middle of the head, then tie it with a hairband.
2. Half-Up, Half-Down Style
You can look serious yet classy on the battlefield. To spice up the man bun style, some men leave half of the hair down and put the other half into a bun. The free hair won’t have a chance to distract you because it is behind your ears.
- Ponytail Paired With A Rugged Beard
If you have a rugged beard, do not cut it off because pairing it with the messy half up half down style brings some brightness to the style. The half-up hairstyle keeps your hair out of your face so that you can concentrate well.
4. Modern Viking Cut
Having long hair is not a requirement to resemble the Vikings. You can pair your short hair with a messy quiff and a fading undercut for uniqueness. This style also suits people with thin hair because the messy quiff adds texture to the style. Still, if you need something more to stand out, you can make the undercut clean by shaving the hair to the skin.
5. Dutch Braid
If you can trust yourself or your stylist to do a lovely dutch braid on top, you are good to go with this style. The style is attractive and unique because not many people can do the dutch braid.
6. Braid With Undercut
This is another way to style your medium-length hair. Braiding the short hair and adding an undercut to the style goes a long way in creating a warrior-approved look. However, before wearing the braid with undercut style, ensure the weather is warmer, and you intend to keep it cool.
7. Braid With A Fade
If you are not happy with how you look in short hair, this style will suit you perfectly. Let your stylist give you a fading cut on the sides and put the rest of the hair into a braid. This will fit a guy with thick hair well, and the style is low maintenance.
8. Beard With Undercut
Are you also fun of beards? I think they are stunning. This style is for you if you have thick hair for your beard. You can show some skin of the head by getting a fading cut and hold the top hair into a bun.
9. Professional Viking Hair
This Viking haircut style looks a little bit rough, and it suits people who fancy the rugged appearance; anyway, that is all Viking haircuts are all about. Showing off that rugged part of you. You will need to trim your beard for the style to pop. You are allowed to use all the hair equipment to bring out the style, even if it means blow-drying the hair.
10. Combed Back
Not all Viking hairstyles are informal. So, someone who wants to rock the Viking haircut and look decent in the office can wear this combed-back style. It is a style for people with rounded face shapes because it makes the face look longer. You can apply thickening paste to hold the hair throughout the day. You can pair it with a short beard for a complete look.
11. Braids With Long Hair
A simply done long hair can be dull, but you will not go unnoticed when you add two or three braids to it. The braids are easy to make, and if you don’t know how to, learning is easy.
