I'm getting a haircut tomorrow; any advice, HairGAF?

For a long time, I've had what I've considered to be a boring hairstyle (Think Prince Adam from He-Man). I switched it up a bit recently, but I'm not sure if I want to keep this hairstyle or not. I have some ideas, but I've started work in a professional setting so anything too risky is out the window (Specifically, dying my hair blue or shaving a bit off the sides; I know that wouldn't present well at my work).

Does anyone here have any recommendations for a hairstyle that isn't boring, but also works in a professional setting? Here's a picture of myself for reference:

... Do we even have a HairGAF?
 
Don't get a fuck my shit up haircut like I did once.

Shorter on the sides, trim up top then come it sideways a bit I guess.

Also get your brows done while you're at it bruh those things need maintenance.

Very short on the sides, longer on the top (keep most of your current hair length in the front), and use a matte styling paste. There's no way you won't look better unless the haircut goes hilariously wrong.
 
Well, I have a couple ideas. Here's some photos you could show your stylist. Former stylist, so I tend to be more fashion forward and less conservative.

Keep it simple & clean and get yourself one of these:

This isn't what I'm personally adorning right now but I think it would suit your face shape and overall aesthetic.

Yyyyyyeah... My eyebrows have been my bane for years. That and my facial hair. It grows way too fast and I always have trouble shaving it off cleanky.


Something about this makes me very uncomfortable.

Mine is like this except not so much pomeade. I dry it and then mess it up. It takes some maintenance. Haircut at least every 2 weeks. When hot it falls in my face.

But my girl loves it. Can confirm sex is possible with this style. Highly recommended. Haa!

James Dean cut is my favorite.

Looks good when it's freshly cut and still looks good months later when it's grown out. Super low maintenance.

I like these, but I definitely don't have model-tier looks. And although I don't inherently want a conservative haircut, I know for a fact none of these would fly at work.

Hey OP, just tell your stylist to make your face look like one of these dudes.

Is the Hitler Youth back?
We call it the undercut so as not to alarm family, friends, and random bystanders. It always looks sharp and attracts compliments, unless you're an uggo.

None of those would fly? Damn that's a some ultra conservative workplace. In that case I've got nothing. A long on top fade is very much in style right now, looks good on most guys and can be messy or 'professional'.

Sounds like your stuck with something dull.

Yes, I know those guys are models. Professional stylists use models for photoshoots.
