A man with medium length hair has more options open to him should he choose to change his appearance slightly by combing his hair in a different way.

Some of the more trendy medium length hairstyles for men involve cutting the hair to different lengths. One style has all of the hair except the bangs cut to a medium length and the bangs left longer. Another popular style leaves the top slightly longer and involves using mousse to stiffen sprigs of the top hair into spikes. Most medium length hairstyles involve parting the hair on one side and combing over.

In general, medium length hairstyles for men are considered more classic and classy. They tend to make most men look more distinguished, especially if the style is created with attention to the shape of the face. The longer hair feels more sensual when being styled and when an intimate partner touches it. Medium hairstyles for men are considered appropriate almost everywhere.

Medium hairstyles are suitable for every kind of face shape. But, if you have a round shape, avoid bangs on the front & fullness at the sides as they will make your face look wider. If you have an oblong face, medium length hairstyle which has fullness at the sides is the most suitable for you.

In this time of fleeting fashions and fly by night trends, many men are considering an update to their hairstyle. Unfortunately, being trendy does not necessarily mean that your hairstyle is fashionable, and depending on your line of work, flashy or trendy hairstyles may even cross the line into the realm of actually being inappropriate. Luckily, there are dozens of classic men’s hairstyles that can be worn by virtually anyone, and which are always appropriate. What’s more, if you have a great cut, you may be able to style it into any number of classic hairstyles as well as dress it down into something more trendy and/or casual as well.

Among the most popular classic men’s hairstyles are those that are often referred to as “classic Hollywood hairstyles”. These are the types or hairstyles that were worn and made popular by classic, old-Hollywood actors such as Cary Grant, Humphrey Bogart, James Dean and Sean Connery. Of course, while each of these hairstyles were the virtual signature styles of the men who wore them, it is important to keep in mind that not every hairstyle is universally flattering. This means that it is important to take into consideration your personal physical attributes, such as your face shape and the size and orientation of your facial features, when choosing which classic men’s hairstyles may be most flattering on you, personally.

Depending on the length, thickness, and texture of your hair, there may be several different classic men’s hairstyles that are equally flattering and appropriate for your hair and lifestyle. In these situations, it is important to pick the style that is most compatible with your own personality, as long as it is a style that you feel comfortable styling on a daily basis as well as one that you can see yourself maintaining. This is of even more importance if you are considering a style that requires a fairly consistent length, as you will have to be diligent in your haircuts to ensure that your chosen style is able to be properly maintained at home. Another important factor that many men struggle with when looking into classic men’s hairstyles is the amount of time any particular style will take to manage on a daily basis. It is important to choose the hairstyle that fits into your daily schedule.

Rockabilly for Women

Rockabilly girls were the first to wear pants in public and bandanas in their hairs. A regular feature of this style was the use of bangs and curls. Pin up girls used this style to look bold and yet sexy and cute. Commercials at the time featured these hairstyles as the average population's traditional hairdo.

How to Make A Pompadour

With a little bit of practice, you too can make your hair into the real greasy pompador. After washing your hair, grease your hair properly with pomade. When you comb it backwards you can either part it or just comb it backwards. Pull slightly on the front of the pompadour to lift it a bit. When you look at your hair from the side, it must take on the shape of a wedge.

Tommy Sands Classic Bouffant Hairstyle

2009-11-19T06:05:00.000-08:00

Tommy Sands hairstyle
Tommy Sands was a popular singer and actor in the late 1950s. Born in Chicago with the name Tommy Adrian Sands, he grew up with a love of music, especially country music that led to his performance of what would now be termed rockabilly. Sands was considered by many to be a teen idol and was a contemporary of Elvis Presley. They even shared the same manager, Colonel Parker.

Tommy Sands wore a cool bouffant hairstyle. Although this term was made more popular by ladies hairstyles of the time, it is still an appropriate name for Sands' hairstyle. The word bouffant comes from the French word meaning "puffy". This is a perfect description of the style as it was combed and styled in such a way as to make it puff out from the top of the head and appear to have more volume than was actually there.

Tommy Sands
The hairstyle went out of style in the late 1960's, but has made a huge comeback in the last couple of years. It is a good hairstyle for those with a medium length hair. There is no really special way that the hair must be cut. The style is achieved by the manner of blow drying and combing the hair, then using mousse or styling gel to hold it in place.

How to Bleach Your Hair at Home

2009-11-17T06:44:00.000-08:00

There is an old saying that "blondes have more fun." Often, this seems to be true whether the facts support the conclusion or not. This may be why many people choose to dye their hair and make it blonde. While women are probably more familiar with the techniques than men, this article is aimed at teaching the guys how to bleach your hair at home.

The first thing you should probably know is that bleaching your hair is not as simple as dousing it with peroxide. In fact, doing that could lead to premature hair loss, as in just a few minutes to completely bald. Fortunately there are solutions that are designed to bleach the hair, taking from black to platinum blonde if that is what you want. You just need to follow directions and exercise care.

Most hair bleaches come in a powdered form with a developer that is added to activate them. This developer is peroxide. Usually, it is at a strength of 20 percent, though some kits come with a 40 percent peroxide developer. The peroxide is added to the powder and stirred until you reach the consistency of a thin paste or a thick gravy. You do not want it to drip, but you also do not want it to dry too quickly.

Testing the mixture on a small section of hair that can be hidden or cut and timing how long it takes to reach the desired color is important for a couple of reasons. One, you do not want to leave the bleach on too long because it will burn the hair after a while and give a "chemical" hair cut to the unwary. You also want to ensure that the solution does not cause skin irritation on the scalp. Note: bleaching kits containing 40 percent peroxide are not intended for use on the scalp because this mixture is extremely caustic.

Once you have determined the approximate time it will take to reach the desired level of blonde, you can apply the bleach to the entire head, starting with the darkest areas first. These areas will take slightly longer than lighter ones. Work the bleach into the hair evenly. If one spot gets too much, you may have to rinse it out and start again to avoid chemical burns.

The bleach will continue to work until it dries in place or is rinsed away. You will want to cover the head with a plastic cap and time how long you leave the bleach in place. When the correct time has elapsed, rinse the hair thoroughly to remove all of the bleach solution. Leaving even a small amount in place will result in scalp burns or chemically damaged hair.

One of the advantages of such a hairstyle is the ease of taking care of it. Very little if any real effort goes into styling the hair. It is basically just laid down with the fingers and sprayed or gelled to hold it in place. This leaves it with a textured look that would disappear if one were to brush or comb the hair.

Short hairstyles such as this do a good job of framing the face of a young man and highlighting his features. If one has the good looks of someone like Metcalfe, short hair is the only way to go.

How to Moisturize Damaged Hair - Two Simple Tricks

2009-11-13T06:13:00.000-08:00

Believe it or not, men spend as much time and as much money on their hair as women. After all, we want to look good to impress the ladies that catch our eyes. This means that men sometimes do things to their hair that leave it dry and damaged, just as women sometimes do. Here, we will look at a couple of simple tricks guys should know about how to moisturize damaged hair.

The simplest trick is to use conditioner each time we shampoo. Shampoo strips much of the natural oil away from hair during the process of cleaning the scalp. This often leaves hair dull, dry, and brittle. Conditioner is normally formulated to replace this oil and to add moisture that the oil holds in place back to the hair. Occasional deep conditioning treatments from a salon may also be helpful.

Another simple trick is to take a bottle of olive oil and coat the hair in it about once a week. Again, shampooing and styling often strips the hair's natural oils away and leave it vulnerable to damage. Olive oil is very close to the oil that is produced by the scalp to protect the hair, therefore it will act in much the same way to protect the hair from further damage and help to repair any that has already occurred.

There are other things that men can do to moisturize their hair. These are just two simple tricks that use items that are normally already in the home to repair the damage done by normal washing, chemical treatment, and heat treatment used to style the hair.

Moisturizing damaged hair can help it to look good again, which is exactly what we want our hair to do as we want to impress our bosses and our ladies as much as anyone.

Born Walter Buchan in Edinburgh, Scotland on July 24, 1956, he served a stint in the British Army before he returned home and joined the band his brother had started in his absence. He quickly took over the duties of front man and has led the band ever since. Their early music was of the street punk variety, but is now exhibiting more of a thrash influence.

Wattie Buchan punk Mohawk hairstyle
Buchan wears his hair in what is basically a traditional punk hairstyle, the fanned Mohawk. A Mohawk consists of having the head shaved on both sides, leaving a strip of hair down the middle that is allowed to grow to different lengths. Dye is often applied to the hair that remains to produce wild colors and stripe effects that make the style a statement of the person's individuality.

In the case of the fanned Mohawk Buchan favors, the strip of hair is allowed to grow out fairly long and is arranged so that it has the appearance of a fan when viewed from the side. This arrangement is often more stylish and aesthetically pleasing than the spiked Mohawk favored by many of the younger punk rockers.

There is a myth that dreadlocks are not dirty unless you are just naturally a dirty person to begin with. In reality, you can and should wash your locks at least once a week. Dreads lock-up better when they are clean. By not washing your locks, you can actually ruin your hair permanently and your dreads will look less then appealing.

Tips on Styling Dreadlock

Maintaining Dreadlocks
For many people, choosing to have dreadlocks is not just a hairstyle, but also a way of life. It is sub-culture that defines the very essence of a man. Like any item that identifies a person, be it a vehicle or home, preservation is of the utmost importance; and dreadlock maintenance is no exception.

How to Make and Grow Dreadlocks
There is no wrong or right way for anyone to achieve dreadlocks; it is a personal preference. Some methods take longer then others to achieve the final look so it depends on how fast you want to be sporting some locks. The salon method is the fastest way to achieve the locks however, not all salon methods are not 100% natural and dreadlock perms alter the hairs texture until it grows out.

Significance And History Of Dreadlocks
As a hairstyle, the history of dreadlocks is long and significant. Most commonly associated with the Rastafarian culture in modern times, dreadlocks have been worn dating all the way back to ancient Egypt.

As a hairstyle, the history of dreadlocks is long and significant. Most commonly associated with the Rastafarian culture in modern times, dreadlocks have been worn dating all the way back to ancient Egypt.

Oddly enough, the historical significance of dreadlocks is basically a religious one that spans many different cultures. The name, dreadlocks, has two possible etymologies. In one possibility, the word is inspired by the dread this hairstyle inspires in those who see warriors wearing such locks. The other option is related to the Rastafarian word for "fears the Lord."

According to Hindu scriptures, the god, Shiva, and his followers wore a hairstyle called "jaTaa" which means twisted locks of hair. Early Greeks, several Pacific Ocean civilizations, and some monastic groups of various religions have worn hairstyles that formed locks and could be termed dreadlocks.

Some of these groups include monks of the Ethiopian Coptic Church, Judaist Nazarites, Hindu Sadhus, etc. Even early Christians have worn dreadlocks. The first Bishop of Jerusalem, James the Just has been described as wearing them long enough to reach his ankles.

The use of the term dreadlocks to describe this hairstyle is easily traceable back to Jamaica in the 1950s. At that time, the style was adopted by members of the "Young Black Faith", an early beginning of the Rastafarian movement. Their adoption of the hairstyle was chosen based on Biblical faith and can be traced back to a passage from the book of Numbers.

Dreadlocks may seem to be fairly recent development in terms of hairstyles. The fact is that that could not be further from the truth. Dreadlocks have been worn, though called by different names, since ancient times. Religious ascetics are the most common class of people to wear them as a part of their religious practices. Today, dreads are worn for a variety of reasons. Some are religious. Others are to make a political statement, and still others are simply because the wearer believes that this style looks good on him/her.

Scene Hairstyles For Scene Guys

2009-11-07T06:11:00.000-08:00

Scene hairstyles are becoming more popular every day. The hairstyles are a way for guys to reflect their individuality and personality in their appearance. About the only real rule governing scene hairstyles for guys is that medium long hair is required to achieve the full look.

For some guys, this may mean a period of growing the hair out. For others, cutting a bit off may be in order. In any case, once the desired length is obtained, one can begin to style the hair in one of many different scene styles or create a completely new one.

To achieve the scene look, the hair is usually long enough to cover the entire face if combed in front of it. Many scene styles do involve allowing the hair to cover one eye. Others have the hair parted on the side and combed over.

Long fringe hair
Another aspect of scene hairstyles is often a spiky appearance. This is normally toward the back of the crown of the head, but can be anywhere. Achieving this look is simply a matter of applying styling gel or mousse to the hair and pulling up so that it stands in place in several different spots.

Spiky appearance
A final aspect of scene hairstyles that is catching on quickly is the use of hair dyes to create unique patterns of color within the hair. Most often, the hair is dyed black and then another color is applied to create one or more stripes or just a blob of color. Bright colors are the order of the day.

Scene hairstyle
Any combination of the above aspects of scene hairstyles can be used to create a look that is unique to the individual. Expressing one's individuality is, after all, the whole reason for adopting a scene or emo lifestyle.

Faux Hawk

One of the most popular new hairstyles for young men is known as the faux-hawk.

Tony Curtis Ducktail Hairstyles

Tony Curtis ducktail hairstyle
Tony Curtis is an American actor born June 3, 1925. At birth, his name was Bernard Schwartz but changed this to the screen name Tony Curtis in 1948 when he moved to Hollywood. At the age of 23, he was quickly discovered and awarded a contract with Universal Pictures.

Early films include a role as a rumba dancer in the film Criss Cross for which he did not even receive a credit and the role of a bigoted convict who was chained to Sidney Poitier in the movie The Defiant Ones for which he was given an Oscar nomination.

Tony Curtis Duck's Tail hair
During the 1950s, when Curtis was at his most popular, he was known as quite a screen hunk. The distinctive hairstyle he adopted was known as a duck's tail in the US and as a duck's arse in Great Britain because of the way it swept back and resembled the back end of a duck. Seeing Curtis wearing his hair this way prompted Elvis Presley to adopt the same hairstyle.

A duck tail is achieved by combing the hair on the sides of the head to the back so that the two sides meet in the middle of the back of the head. It takes a great deal of hair oil or styling gel to hold the hair in place, which gave rise to the term "greaser". Wearing a ducktail came to be a sign of rebellion.
