The Best Styles and Care for Men’s Hair and Grooming at Far East Plaza

A great hairstyle is a key part of a modern Singaporean man’s style, confidence, and professionalism [1]. However, the city’s tropical climate and humidity make things harder, and by noon, a fresh cut can turn into a frizzy or flat style [2]. This is where experience counts. At SalonPlus in Far East Plaza, our stylists are experts at making modern cuts that are not only fashionable but also work with Singapore’s weather so you look great all day.

This guide has everything you need to know about haircuts, styling techniques, and basic routines for men who want to look good, whether you need a reliable “haircut Far East Plaza” for maintenance or a skilled “hairstylist Singapore” for a whole new look.

Modern Cuts: Finding Your Own Unique Style

The best men’s hairstyles today look good and are easy to wear every day. Here are the main styles that our stylists at SalonPlus in Orchard are experts at [3]:

• The Textured Crop with Fade: This is the best cut for people who don’t want to spend a lot of time on their hair. It has tight, faded sides that slowly blend into a textured top that is a little longer. You can style it in many ways because of the texture. You can brush it forward, mess it up for a casual look, or style it up for more volume. It can handle a lot of moisture very well.
• The Modern Pompadour: This style is a new take on the classic. It has more natural volume and softer lines. The sides are kept clean, usually with a skin fade or taper, and the top is left long enough to make a pushed-back, full shape. This look is bold and confident, and it works in both business and social settings.
• The Curtain Fringe (Two-Block Cut): This style is based on Korean and world trends. It has a soft middle part and longer layers at the front that frame the face. The sides and back are cut neatly. It looks great on men with straight or slightly wavy hair and gives them a youthful, stylish look.
• The Sharp Side-Part Undercut: This cut combines a clean, razor-sharp side part with sides that are much shorter for a look that is always in style and businesslike. The clear difference in length makes a strong, polished shape that looks great with a product that has a light hold and a high shine.

Mastering Texture and Hold for the Weather in Singapore

To keep your hair from getting frizzy and keep its shape in humid weather, you need the right product and technique [2], [4].

• Choosing the Right Product is Important:
  1. For a matte finish and texture: Use a matte clay or fiber paste. These give a strong hold and a dry finish, which is great for separating textured crops and pompadours without making them look greasy.
  2. For a natural, flexible hold: A sea salt spray on damp hair gives it grit and volume. Use a medium-hold matte pomade next to define it.
  3. For a polished, sleek look: A light-hold, high-shine pomade or cream is perfect for slicked-back and side-part styles because it gives you control and a polished shine.
• How to Apply for Long-Lasting Results:
  1. Begin with hair that has been dried with a towel.
  2. Rub a small amount of the product between your hands to mix it up.
  3. Make sure the product is evenly spread through your hair from the roots to the ends.
  4. Use a comb to get exact styles, like a side part, or your fingers to shape and lift textured looks.

Advanced Services: Short perms and texture treatments

SalonPlus has advanced services for men with very straight, flat, or thick hair that doesn’t style well. These services will change the way your hair naturally behaves [5].

• Digital Perms for Men: This new method gives straight hair a little bit of wave or root volume all the time. The result is not tight curls, but more natural texture and body that makes styling easy every day and gives you volume that lasts even in humid weather.
• Hair Texturizing & Keratin Treatments: These professional treatments relax the hair’s natural pattern just enough to make it less bulky, tame frizz, and cut down on the time it takes to blow-dry it. The end result is hair that is smoother, easier to style, and holds its shape perfectly.

The Quick Maintenance Routine for SalonPlus

To keep your hair healthy and your cut sharp between trips to your hairdresser at Far East Plaza, follow this simple routine [6]:

1. Wash Smart: Only wash your hair 2–3 times a week with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo. Washing your hair too much removes natural oils, which makes your scalp produce more oil. On days off, wash well with water.
2. Scalp Care: Once a week, use a gentle scrub on your scalp to keep product and oil from building up. This is common in our climate and can make your hair itchy and limp.
3. Get Regular Trims: To keep your style sharp and in shape, go to SalonPlus every 3–4 weeks for a trim. This is very important for styles that have faded.
4. Protect at Night: If your hair is longer, you might want to use a silk pillowcase to keep it from getting tangled, keep it from getting “bedhead,” and keep it from breaking.
