  Hairstyles for Men to make their forehead smaller
  
  Men usually find it difficult to conceal their full-size forehead as finding a right hairstyle is tricky for them due to a thinning or a physically high hairline. It is essential to select an accurate hairstyle that will cover the large forehead, going well with the overall appearance. Therefore, consider the given below known hairstyles and mask your forehead smartly:
  
  Short Hairstyles
  
  Short hairstyles with side bang or a side part are the most regular hairstyle suggested for men with hefty foreheads. Moreover, fades with a medium front bang is another superb option. However, incase you wear the front bangs straight across, then make sure to texture it with a thinning razor in order to soften the line of your bang.
  
  Medium Hairstyles
  
  Medium hairstyles are the perfect options for men to hide their large foreheads as such styles provide them with versatility. Curly hairstyles, layered hairstyles and retro cuts are the best possible options. You can nicely style medium hair over your large forehead, avoiding a rumpled look.
  
  Long Hairstyles
  
  Long hairstyles are no doubt very tricky for men to carry as the weight of long hair generally drag the hairstyle back and away from the hairline. However, if you softly layer them around the front, then it looks great and covers your prominent forehead to a great extent. Try to avoid featured and slicked back long hairstyle and adopt delicately falling hairstyles with bangs.
  
  Wear Hat or caps
  
  If you are unable to select among the above mentioned hairstyles or want to keep your current hairstyle, then the other possible method to cover your wide forehead is to wear hats or caps. The wide range of caps and hats for men include crown hats, puggaree hats, peak hats and caps, brim hats, baseball caps, fur caps, captain caps, military caps, and ski caps. All you have to do is stand in front of a mirror, try the caps and hats one by one and select the ones that suit you and hide your forehead as well.
