👉 Book a consultation at Knockouts Hurst and we’ll help you map out your long hair journey from the first trim to full-on flow.
Step 1: Make a Game Plan With Your Knockouts Hurst Stylist
Growing it out doesn’t mean ghosting your barber. Quite the opposite. You’ll want a plan so your hair grows out with shape—not chaos.
💇♂️ Pro Move: Come in and talk goals. Want shoulder-length waves? A slick ponytail? Medium layers with texture? We’ll start with a clean-up cut and get your sides shaped so the process looks intentional—even during the awkward phase.
🎯 Local Tip: Guys around Hurst are loving the mid-length layered look—it’s clean, chill, and doesn’t fight the Texas humidity. Bonus: looks fire at Texas Live! or under a cap at the RoughRiders game.
Step 2: Decide What Long Style You’re Going For
Not all hairstyles are created equal. Your vibe matters—and so does your face shape (which you can check in our face shape guide for men).
Some trending mid-length and longer hairstyles for men in the 817 include:
- Mid-Length Modern Slick back: Sleek and office-friendly, especially for those tech jobs in North Richland Hills.
- Layered Curls: A polished look for your curls to stay sleek and ready for anything. Can easily be dressed up or down for casual business and formal events.
- A Chic Shag Mullet: Reminiscent of old-school rock stars, a perfect blend of retro and modern. Great for highlighting your natural texture and movement.
- Man Bun / Low Ponytail: Clean up and control your length without chopping it off. Perfect for date night at Lazy Dog or sushi in Colleyville.
Not sure which is best for you? Just ask your stylist at your next appointment at Knockouts Hurst—we’ll help you match the cut to your lifestyle and hair type.
Step 3: Groom It Like a Pro (Or Risk Looking Like You Gave Up)
Long hair can look amazing—or a total mess. The difference? A little upkeep and a few key products.
Here’s your Hurst-tested grooming lineup:
🧴 Sulfate-Free Shampoo & Conditioner
2–3 times a week, max. Trust us, your scalp will thank you.
💆♂️ Scalp Massage
Not just a vibe—it promotes circulation and healthy hair growth. Add one to your Knockouts service for that extra relaxation.
✂️ Scheduled Shape-Ups at Knockouts Hurst
Come in every 6–8 weeks for a cleanup trim—especially around the ears and neckline. That’s what separates you from “forgot to shower” energy.
💨 Lightweight Styling Cream or Sea Salt Spray
This is how you go from “just rolled out of bed” to “intentionally effortless.” Our stylists can help you find the right product for thick Texas hair that’s battling sun and sweat.
