Nicholas Braun: Short Side Parted Hair With Volume
Succession star Nicholas Braun’s short side parted hair with volume is a polished, classic look that’s a little bit art-imitating life, no?
Why We Love It:
Nicholas Braun’s short side parted hair with volume is extremely similar to his Succession character: Cousin Greg.
But there’s a subtle difference – Greg wears his slightly slicker on the show whereas Nicholas’ hair in these shots has a little more oomph, courtesy of more product and a good blow dry.
However, art has imitated life, because Brian Cox – who plays media mogul Logan – would often accidentally call his character Nick instead of Greg during filming by mistake.
“I have the same face and I have the same voice and I generally have the same haircut. It’s pretty easy for someone to be like, ‘Oh, yeah, looks like him, sounds like him, so… Greg!’” Nicholas told The Guardian a couple of years ago.
Why mess with a good thing though? His whole look, and vibe is what made him the ‘internet’s new boyfriend’ the minute he rocked up in Succession.
So keep that rocking that recognisable hairstyle Greg…sorry Nick.

Get The Look
- Nicholas Braun’s short side parted hair with volume will take a little time and some practice to perfect.
- On towel dried hair, apply a styling product like a volumising mousse or thickening spray which will help get a bit of oomph and texture.
- Using a comb, create a deep side parting on one side of your head.
- Blow-dry your hair, using a round brush to lift and create volume at the roots.
- Use a small amount of hair wax or pomade to further define your parting and add texture to your hair. Rub the product between your palms and apply it to your hair, focusing on the ends and the roots.
- Use your fingers to create additional volume, focusing on pushing it up a little at the front brushing it slightly to the side.
- Use any extra product left on your fingers to smooth the hair at the sides of your head.
- Finish with a light hold hairspray.
