He may not be known for making the best choices in his acting roles, but Ben Affleck always looks sharp on the red carpet. The Oscar-winner is shown here with a traditionally short, debonair style that's been updated for the 21st century. This cut is ideal for straight, medium to fine hair types.

The Cut:

This classic man's cut features clipper-cut sides and well-groomed sideburns. The sides are tapered with clippers to approximately one inch at the parietal ridge, gradually shorter as you move down the head. The crown and top areas are layered to 2-1/2 to 3 inches, and the fringe is cut in a curved line over the forehead.

After establishing the base design, use scissors to notch the hair in the top and crown sections to add texture and definition to the layers.

The Style:

With the cut complete, apply leave-in conditioner and styling gel to damp hair, massaging it to distribute evenly (you can also use a wide-tooth comb). Use a blow dryer and round brush to gently lift and dry the hair to a mostly dry state, achieving the desired amount of volume. Then, apply a small amount of styling wax to define the texture. Allow the hair to finish drying naturally.

If you accidentally dry the hair too much or end up with excessive volume, lightly mist the hair with water and finger-comb it to smooth out any fluffy areas, then let the hair finish drying naturally.
