"Honestly, I like experimental stuff, anything that’s kind of off, and makes me look twice. I really love that kind of self expression." —Riley, 21
Have an edgy personality or just feel a bit daring? Some men are all for those eye-catching looks, so if you’ve been craving trying out a massive chop or dyeing your hair an offbeat color, surprising your man with a twist for your Valentine’s Day hair just might be the right move.
"My favorite hairstyle is the one where a girl has amazing long flowing hair, but on one side they do that fade, into a hard part. That’s a really fun haircut." —Brian, 27
Don’t want to go the full mile but still looking for a way to change things up for V-Day? What about changing up your part. If you’re a girl who loves the middle part, change it up with a deep side part. It’s an easy way to instantly transform your look and up the glam factor, perfect for a fancy dinner out. Who knows, you might even find changing up your part is more flattering on your face shape than your usual look.
Natural and effortless

"Naturally wavy is naturally beautiful. My girlfriend has long, thick wavy hair. Sometimes she spends extra time straightening it or curling it, but I prefer it best when she wears it naturally wavy. She looks most like herself and this is how I picture her in my head." —Andrew, 35
It’s no surprise many men are partial to the messy waves look. It’s sexy and effortlessly chic—even Victoria Secret models are sporting it down the runway every year. If you think your man prefers the low-maintenance look, you’re in luck because it means your Valentine’s Day hair look can be quick and easy. Simply let your hair air dry or try out a heatless waves hairstyle to give your hair some added bounce and texture.
"I like long straight hair. Messy wavy hair is sexy as well, it's like you're trying but not trying." — Roberto, 32
