Finding the best black men haircuts to try can be a challenge if you aren't sure about what new styles are out there.

But with all the latest trends in black men’s hairstyles, guys have never had so many styles worth trying. So if you’re looking for a fresh new taper fade haircut as a black guy, this guide to the most popular and fashionable cuts and styles will help you choose a cool look.

There are so many options for these fresh styles from close cropped waves to natural twists to geometric flat tops with retro flair. Most of these styles are a combination of texture on top, a line up and taper fade. Create your own unique style by choosing length on top, type of curls and the placement of the fade. For something extra, add a surgical line or hair design.

High taper fade - It fades with skin at around 2 inches or even lower from the hair top. It is a style that can be rocked by anybody but it seems to work best for men with black hair. You can easily hold the hair tight using pomade and it also works in keeping the hair shiny. There is also the low taper fade which disappears an inch above the natural hairline. For the low taper fade, it would be a good idea to use hair gel when styling for the best results.

Line Up Hairstyle - Perfect for those who like to keep a sharp, clean hairline, the line up adds style and structure to your hair. Also known as an edge or shape up, your barber will shave a line straight across your forehead and around your temples to create a boxy look which frames your face. For black men sporting a buzz cut, waves, or a cool fade haircut, the line up is a distinct and effective way to accentuate a strong jawline and chiseled face. The one important thing to keep in mind is that the hairline will grow back fast, so having a pair of clippers at home for regular maintenance can help you keep it looking neat.

Caesar taper fade - It is amongst the best for African Americans mainly because of their skin complexion and dark hair color. The sides have short haircuts and longer haircuts featured on the top. The top haircuts have larger lengths usually swept to the front side and not the side as many other fades do. The fade allows for short borders and bangs to be combed sideways.

Afro Fade - The afro fade is all about short sides and a wild curly top. With less maintenance required than the box fade, an afro fade with curly twists is a variant of the box cut, allowing for more natural hair growth on top. The sides and back of the hair are faded high, low or skin or bald. In complete contrast to the taper fade, about 3-5 inches of hair is left on top of the head to grow out and style in whatever way you like. Overall, the afro fade is like the messier cousin of the box fade.

In addition African men hairstyle is big braids, particularly wrapped up into a short bun like you see above, create a very distinct look. Particularly when you add in a fade. To make this look work, all you need to do is divide your hair across your head into three equal parts and braid each of them. After that, connect them to the back with a twisted small bun. To make it look sharper, try shaving sharp a line-up in front.
