Best Line Haircut and Pattern Hair Design Ideas
Haircut designs vary from one line to intricate geometric and freestyle styles. The placement at the back, on the side, or near the temple may give an interesting twist to common designs for men, too. See the various ways to step up your fresh undercut and get a stylish look you’ve always wanted.
1. Faux Hawk with Design Lines
Long on top, with a short back and sides, this men’s hairstyle is arguably one of the most popular trends now. 3 lines situated at the back of the head diversify this look and make you stand out from the crowd.

2. Caesar Cut with X Design
Short haircuts suit most face shapes and look great on any hair color and texture. Still, isn’t it boring to wear the same shape for years? This X haircut design adds to the style and looks masculine and sophisticated.

3. Skin Fade and Greek Patterns
Sometimes, barbering is a form of art rather than just a craft. This impeccably detailed Versace inspired hair design is one of the examples of some barbers’ talent.

4. High and Tight with Freestyle Hair Design
Whilst this haircut is extremely versatile and easy to upkeep, lightning-shaped freestyle design lines give it some edginess and a unique feel. The only downside is that razor-shaved lines grow out fairly quickly.

5. A Double Line on One Side
A fade haircut contrasting with long, curly hair on the top makes a dynamic and daring look. Ask your barber to shave in a line or two on one side of your disconnected curly hair undercut for a proper showstopper haircut.

6. Fade with a Line Hair Design
For this haircut, the top area is kept short to keep the curls neat and tidy whereas the sides and the back are shaved short. A good example of how the razored haircut designs accomplish the geometry of the look!

7. High Fade Haircut with Freestyle Design
The curved line and the two crossing diagonal lines create dimension and emphasize the face features of the person who wears this style. Beware that such hair designs need to be redone every 2-3 weeks for a fresh look.

8. Drop Fade Mohawk with a Curved Line
We can’t get over how crisp this line is, situated just at the point where the fade starts. To recreate this look, use some men’s hair pomade and spray the spikes with a strong hold hairspray.

11. Skin Fade and V Shape Line Haircut Design
The combination of the curly, textured top and very short hair on the sides gives contrast to this haircut. Asymmetric, yet perfectly balanced, the V shape design looks both modern and classy.

17. Modern Pompadour with Geometric Hair Design
This modern take on a pompadour men’s haircut features a side-swept quiff and a tight skin fade. Although this shape is very bold itself, a geometric hair tattoo on one side certainly adds to the style. An excellent way to distract attention from the receding hairline!
