Hair Styles Defined

MILITARY

Military cuts are easy. Save the shears and clip away. These are low maintenance hair cuts that are easy to manage and leave you free to focus on what you're working on. Ask for a high-n-tight or a flat top.

Maintenance Tools - None
Who - Soldiers, athletes, astronauts, engineers
Barber Visit - Once a week

MESSY/MODERN

The messy modern hair cut is the current leader in men’s trendy hair cuts. This style sometimes referred to as bed head, spiky, or messy is simply a classic men's haircut that is messed up using gel and stays looking messy the whole day.

Maintenance Tools - Hair Gel
Who - Young men, entrepreneurs, metrosexuals, urbanites
Barber Visit - Once every two weeks

LONG HAIR

Long hair is not very popular these days. There are only a few groups that find this style acceptable. If you have long hair be sure to keep it clean and condition it a lot. Long hair is high maintenance and should be brushed frequently. If you are a metal head, just ignore it until it is perfect!

Maintenance Tools - Conditioner, brush, comb, detangler
Who - Surfers, metal heads, hippies, new agers
Barber Visit - Once a month

EXTREME

Red hair, green hair, spikes, and shaves, clubs, bars, or at raves. Extreme haircuts are for people that live extreme lives and aren’t afraid to let their hair express it.

Maintenance Tools - Gel, dyes, hairspray
Who - Punks, Goths, boarders, rock stars
Barber Visit - Once a month

CLASSIC CUTS

Classic Cuts are not too short or too long; they are just right. Usually they are parted but do not have to be. They have some body but not too much; they are short, with no visible skin. The hair on the lower neck is squared off, not tapered.

Maintenance Tools - Brush or a comb, light hair gel
Who - Teacher, businessman, coaches, contractors
Barber Visit - Once every two weeks

SHAGGY/MODERN

The shaggy haircut dates back to the 60's British invasion. This look has been revitalized by the “retro” movement and is popular among younger men. Shaggy cuts should look uncut but well groomed. Don’t let it go beyond your shoulders.

Maintenance Tools - Brush, comb, gel, mirror
Who - Young men, artists, metrosexuals, urbanites
Barber Visit - Once every two weeks

CURLY/WAVY

Curly or wavy hair can be difficult to style as it is usually hard to control. Unless you’re comfortable with a bush on your head keep it short or relax it with a chemical relaxer and style as you like.

Maintenance Tools - Brush, relaxer
Barber Visit - Once every two weeks

WALL STREET

Wall Street cuts are just like Classic Cuts but have more of an edge, a little longer in the back, maybe slicked back or perhaps just a little shorter than a Classic Cut would be. These styles tell the world you mean business but that you have a wild side too.

Who - Financial analyst, marketing executive, banker, salesman
Barber Visit - Once every two weeks

POLITICIAN

Who - Presidents, mayors, senators, pastors, priests, CEOs

MULLET

The mullet is the most celebrated hair cut today. Though rarely seen, it had reached legendary status as Americans embrace the white trash culture boom. Tell your barber: short in front, long in back.

Barber Visit - Once every two weeks

BALD & BOLD
