Excuse me, I need help with picking a hairstyle for one of my teenage male leads. If it helps to know about his personality, he's quiet and sort of distant, as a very basic description. I'd appreciate any help I can get, descriptive or even images. Thank you.

I experience similar problems with male hairstyles. Body language helps, and since your character is more shy, he would be less compelled to make eye contact or present himself as confident. When you think of someone quiet and distant in your head, they are likely looking downwards when they are walking or otherwise not being outward with their movement. I think hair that is probably shaggier and covers the eyes a bit would work, as well as one that is more clean-cut so as not to stand out. I know that sounds hypocritical though so if you are stuck between those two it'd be a matter of what you think looks better.
