Okay so I'm 16 and since age probably 5 I've been getting the same haircut. I get a 2 buzz with a standard shape up. Lately to change it up I've been getting a 4 on the top and a 2 on the sides with a box shape up in the front. I need someone to tell me what to get because I cannot decide on my own. By the way the acne is being treated so I have that under control already lol

i think you should try something more angular, to make your head look less like a sphere.

also, is that chew?

Maybe you should have some hair before you ask how to cut it.

Grow it way out and then get it trimmed with scissors and not clippers.

Your head is on the rounder side so short buzzed hair makes this much more noticeable and doesn't give much shape to it.
Grow it for a while then when it starts to look fro-ish (poofy) go to a cheap barber and only have them clip the sides short. Repeat if necessary. When you have some hair to work with pick a style you like and go from there.

Try about a three on the sides and five on top. You can always go shorter if you do not like it. Why look like you just got out of boot camp.

Why don't you ask him out? He's obviously free.​

+1. That's not a haircut.. it's just really short hair. Go to a good barber, you can keep it short but give it a bit more shape around the sides.. the roundness is not cool it looks like a bowling ball.

I think it's hot.

But seriously, there's nothing wrong with a short cut, especially if you're active in sports like wrestling and running.

I still have mine cut short, but I just buzz the whole thing with a 2 clip. No fade or different length is needed on the sides. For a change you can try growing your sideburns out. Just keep it clean, don't let it get too furry around the neck or ears.
