What's a good way to wear short hair for a guy?

I normally wear my hair a few inches longer, with the wings coming out the side and back. I Just got my haircut this afternoon, i asked for a Caesar cut, but it doesn't look that great on me, Any suggestions?What's a good way to wear short hair for a guy?
I am not sure how long of a caesar cut you have, whether it is more a caesar cut or more a forward brushforward brush:

Not all face shapes suit a caesar cut/forward brush. If it is a longer caesar, you can go with a short version of a regular taper cut. If it s a short caesar/forward brush, go with one of the short pomp styles-crew cut, ivy league(long crew cut), flat top crew cut. A good barber can design one of these to fully suit almost any young guy's head shape, face and neck shape, frontal hairline and facial features. This answer explains the basic short cuts. The first two links contained therein are quite informative:

Some barbers describe an ivy league as a crew cut just long enough to be parted and combed to the side if so desired. An ivy league can also be worn with the hair brushed up off the forehead to form the short pomp front or with the short bangs brushed down on the forehead like a forward brush cut.

Grooming any of the short pomp styles- crew cut, ivy league, flat top crew cut- is basically the same and takes about a minute or two.

1) Towel dry hair.

2) Barely dip fingertips in jar of wax.

3)Transfer wax to palms.

4) Smooth palms over hair.

5)Brush hair off forehead to form short pomp front.

Whichever style you decide on, be sure to take a photo to help describe the desired haircut to the barber or stylist.

first off, DON'T listen to hunter and get a bowl cut. trust me girls hate them. you should go for windswept bangs. like a surfer cut. sorta. it looks really good and 90% of girls like it.
Spike it up if its long enough.
... Get a bowl cut, I hear chicks love them
buzz it. its simple; basically maitnence free and cute. ;]
