Sterling Knight Shag Haircut


Sterling Knight shaggy hairstyle

Sterling Knight is a 20 year old American actor. He has had several guest roles in popular television series, such as Kip in the Grey's Anatomy episode entitled "Freedom" and Lucas in the Hannah Montana episode called "My Best Friend's Boyfriend". He is probably best known for his starring role as Chad Dylan Cooper in the Disney series Sonny with a Chance.


Sterling Knight shag haircut

Sterling Knight's haircut can best be described as a short shag. The hair is left longer on top and combed down over the eyebrows. On the sides, it is allowed to cover about half the ears. Because Sterling's hair is not of one uniform color, there are variant shades of blonde and brown present, this particular cut gives his hair the appearance of texture.

This texturing effect makes it much easier for Knight to maintain his hairstyle himself when away from the set and all of the makeup artists and hair stylists available to him. This type of easy care hair style can usually be achieved by putting some different shades of color highlights into the hair. Otherwise, it becomes more difficult to achieve the texture present in shag like the one worn by Sterling Knight in his current role

How To Gel Men's Hair

Styling gel has become a mainstay in the grooming regimen of men and women alike. Men are finding that a little strategic use of gel allows them to do things with their hair that were not possible a few years ago. And, despite what many people think, men can be as particular and fussy over their hair, if not more so, than women. Yet, many still do not know how to gel men's hair.

Men do not want to look as if they have greased their hair down. This would just make it look dirty and unkempt. However, the "wet look" is something that can make many different hair styles stand out and make a man more noticeable. Properly applied gel can help to achieve this look.

In order to achieve a basically natural, slightly mussed look, it is best to wash the hair as normal and towel dry. While the hair is still a little bit damp, put a small amount of gel on the fingertips and dilute it with water. Rub this diluted gel onto a comb and comb the hair evenly to distribute the gel all over the head.

Next, gently blow dry the hair. When it is dry, take another small amount of gel on the fingertips and rub them through the hair randomly. This is a time when less is definitely more, meaning that you do not want to coat the hair in gel, just create a few neat looking clumps that fall in a seemingly random pattern.

For those who wish to achieve a more exotic, or spiked look, it will take quite a bit of gel and time working the hair with the fingertips to create the individual spikes and pull them into place. However, for most guys, a small amount of gel and a little bit of time can produce a hairstyle that looks slightly wet and shiny with natural highlights and a carefree appearance that most people find very attractive.

For those with curly hair who would like to achieve this hairstyle, there are some keys. First, one needs to find a hair dresser that specializes in curls and the proper techniques of cutting them. Allowing the hair to simply grow wildly is not an option, as it can puff out and get out of control quickly. There is an art to cutting naturally curly hair that involves using scissors and cutting when dry to avoid shrinkage that would occur if cut wet and allowed to dry. You will want to avoid hairdressers that suggest layering and razor cutting because they are not familiar with the way naturally curly hair acts.

How To Grow African American Hair

African American men often tend to wear very short hairstyles that cling close to the head. Many view this as a necessity based on the amount of curl that is normally found in African American hair. There are, however, some who wish to wear slightly longer hairstyles without having to go the way of dreadlocks. These men are often left wondering how to grow African American hair.

The first factor to bear in mind is that African American actually grows pretty quickly. The problem is that the curl of the hair often creates weak points in the strand that break off easily. One solution to this problem is to use a chemical relaxer on the hair to straighten out the curls. Another is to use a steam iron for the same purpose. The iron, however, does not last as long as the chemical relaxer.

Another major problem that is faced by black men's hair is a lack of moisture. African American hair is usually thick and coarser than Caucasian hair, meaning that it requires much more moisture to maintain good health. Often oil is added to produce a shine, but this does nothing to meet the needs of each hair strand in terms of moisture.

In order for black men to wear longer hairstyles, several factors must come into play. First, the curl in the hair must be relaxed. African American hair usually curls either in a tight "S" or "Z" pattern close to the head. Each bend creates a point of potential breakage that can prevent one from achieving the length of hair desired. Relaxing the curl helps to prevent these weak spots from forming, but must be repeated every two or three days or the hair will grow out and curl at the point of new growth.

Moisturizing is a critical part of the daily hair care routine if a man wants his hair to grow out to a longer length. Protein conditioners can be used for deep conditioning and moisturizing about every two weeks. The rest of the time, it is recommended that a good moisturizing conditioner be used on a daily basis as the hair is washed.

Finally, the most difficult part of hair growth encouragement for a man to master is being gentle when washing and conditioning the hair. Applying excess pressure to the hair or kneading it too much and creating tangles will make it more likely that hair will break off at one of the weak points created by the natural curl. This is especially true if combing is not handled very gently to avoid breaking strands while removing tangles.

Two different hairstyles that Cooper has worn recently were both designed to outline his face and show off his features. In 2008, he chose a look that shouted "cool and casual" but formal by having his hair cut uniformly to the same length. This cut allowed his natural waves to show through. Only a small amount of styling gel was needed to maintain the style.

Earlier this year, Cooper was seen with a different cut and style. This style was cut short on the sides and left longer on top. The top hair was then razor cut to give it texture. This is another style that requires very little product to maintain. Style, comfort, and ease of care are trademarks of these Bradley Cooper hairstyles.
