Get a haircut that suits the shape of your face

a quick Google search will yield many options

Get a hair trimmer. Shave the sides and back to a certain length you like. I do about a 3. Use a pair of hair scissors to trim the top part a length you like. Chuck some gel in and slick it back or to the side. You have to do the side about every 3 weeks. It's trial and error though but you get better each time

Find and build a relationship with a good, local barber. Find things you like, learn about how they're built, find out how often you need to go in.

Brush cut/crew cut. Or "ROTC" - short, military-type haircut, but not a "high and tight".

I keep my hair short because that's how I like it. I go in, tell the barber "Off the ear, tapered in back." Your other options is "square in back", but I prefer tapered. I'm basically a "1" on the sides in the summer, maybe a "2" in the winter, and then when it grows out, I go back again. So basically 12 haircuts a year.

When I go bald on top, I'm just going to shave my head, at home, end of story.

Ivy league or faux hawk for me. It works well with my face.

Go for what works with your face...

That being said I always go with some type of undercut with long hair on top. You can literally style it a million different ways and you can slightly modify the way you cut it to change up your look. For example sometimes I fade mine, sometimes I'll get a 3 on the sides others a 1, sometimes I get a hard part... I like this hairstyle because i can comb it and style it in many different ways. The best part is the styling takes no time at all... Throw some gel in, slick it back, done.

I don't look good with short hair. Some men do and if you are one of these men by all means rock the high and tight or some variation of it.

Any good barber or hairdresser can tell you what style might look good on you. Find one you like and stick with them. I have one woman who is allowed to cut my hair and that's it. She's the only one who ever cuts my hair exactly how I ask and all her recommendations have worked well for me. Find one person and build rapport with them.

Find a barber that specializes in 50s style cuts. Barbers are cheaper than stylists and it's a very clean look that is easy to maintain. You will probably need pomade but it's a look that works with any dress style.
