Men's Hair Care & Hair Styling Tips

Hair styling tips for men are almost as equally sought as hair styling tips for women. Our hair styles are our crowning glory and men as well as women want to look good from top to bottom.

Men have always been concerned about how their hair looked to others but this concern was very much internalized. Male fashion was not something that was supposed to be an all consuming passion as it was with women. Today, men are openly interested in their looks. Men's hair is a growing fashion area and male hairdressing is big business. This is good news for men because they no longer have to be covert in seeking hair styling tips

Your hair style says a lot about you to people you meet. Your character and personality is reflected in the style of your hair cut. There are flamboyant styles, confident styles, conservative styles and passive styles. An important hair styling tip for men is to think about what you want your hair to say about you. Men's stylists are fully aware in the shift in perception towards male styling and they should be your first port of call when seeking advice about cut that suits the type of person you are.

The hair styling tips for men that are likely to be forthcoming from a stylist will be based on factors such as your age, the shape of your head and the natural volume and texture of your hair. For example they will advise you on the best styles for naturally heavy hair or curly hair or thinning hair. If you go to a stylist rather than just a barber, you will get hair styling tips that are more fashion orientated as well as advice on the latest products to maintain your style.

Keith has chosen a long layered style which suits his image perfectly. His hair length has been kept at shoulder level and has been razor cut at the ends to create textured edges & wispy look. His layered style softens his wide jaw line.
The bangs work well to add volume above the ears and widen narrow forehead. If you have a triangular face shape, this style can be one of the best choices. The style works best with straight hair type.

Asian Style

asian hair
To achieve this hairstyle you need a good haircut, a good wax, straightening iron and a lot of time to kill.

After applying your wax, style your hair using a straightening iron. You hair has to be thick or else the spikes will just fall down. It would stay that way in a few hours if done properly and if you do not change the temperature and humidity of the room. Asian hair is normally thick and flat so you won't have trouble with those factors.

Have you seen anybody with that exact style on the streets?

If you say no, that's because it's styled for a fashion look. You have to apply tons of products (probably hair glue) or wax ( like the american crew fiber or paul mitchell dry wax) if you'll wear that outside and hangout by Starbucks. Plus it will look untidy after a few hours knowing the humid climate on where you're at.

Spiky hairs in asian countries cannot last for the whole day without refixing it every so often. I've seen Christian from project runway iron his hair while applying wax to attain a similar hairstyle so I think this one's like that. However, I think you should start finding a good stylist who could at least cut your hair to suit this kind of styling. Good luck on the money your gonna spend to all those styling products.

Go for it. It looks nice. It looks like it got styled with blade by chopping big chunks and fining it by groups.

Richie Sambora Hairstyles

Richie Sambora (was born on July 11th, 1959) is the lead guitar player for Bon Jovi, a hard rock band from New Jersey, USA.
His ends were razored to give the hair a textured finish and create a wispy look. The style works great for him. But, people with round face shape should avoid this hairstyle as the bangs will shorten the face while the hair that kicks out at chin length will accentuates roundness.
In 1980s, Sambora was one of musicians who promoted big hairstyles.

How to Find the Right Men's Hairdresser

“Once you choose a wrong hairdresser, you will regret for a month”. Once you have a wrong haircut, you will wait for a month (or more, depend on your hair) to get a new hairdresser & change your hairstyle. During that time, you will realize the picture of you with the such hairstyle that you don't like. This is a nightmare. And off course you won't repeat this bad experience again, right? So, how to avoid this in the next following days? The answer is get the right salon/hairdresser. To get the right hairdresser, you need several tips :
  1. Get Recommendation
    “Try it first before you buy”. But don`t try it by yourself first, get someone who has got a haircut there. It can be done by finding a colleague, family, or friend who has been there before. Look at his hair & ask him about the salon. Someone else also can be asked. If you see someone on the street with a hairstyle you like, ask him where he got it & who was the hairstylist.
  2. Choose a Nice Look Salon
    A salon that is serious in their business will spend more money to make their place comfortable & nice. If you do not satisfy while waiting or getting a haircut, you can give suggestions or critics, or you can find others.
  3. Choose a Salon that Provide Training Program for Their Hairstylists
    A Salon which is serious to serve their customers will provide a training program, even learning curve. By learning curve, the service will be getting better and better. It will guarantee that they will always learn new styles, new customers, new methods and then compare them with the result.
  4. Choose a Salon with Clean Tools & Environment
    In a salon, a tool will be used for cutting & styling many people. If the salon doesn't care about cleanlines, there is a big chance for any bacteria to infect & cause some diseases.
  5. Choose a Salon that Has a Lot of Experience in Men Haircutting.
    There are many salons that focus on women hairstyling which also accept men customers. Of course you can get a haircut at those salons. What you should avoid is the salons that have less experience in men hairstyling.
  6. What You Should Prepare?
    When you are going get a new look, you should take a few samples of hairstyles you do like & you do not like. If you just tell the stylist about the hairstyle that you want to have, the stylist will mean something else in his mind. By showing the pictures, you will avoid the misunderstanding betwen both of you.
Well, now you have known the criteria of a good salon, so I guess you are ready to go there and have a nice haircut!

Emo hair tips

emo styleOur hair denotes our identity. It is one of the most important aspects in our body. If our hair is beautiful, we feel great and confident. Out of various hairstyles we make, Emo hairstyle is one of the best. An emo hair, is a style created by your own, a style that is completely different from the others.

Here are some tips for creating an emo hair:

  • Mess around with your hair until you get it how you like it without the part. (there are some general rules about parting hair, and if you want a side part then I'd say pick which side of your face you like better and part it 1/4 way from the side.)
  • To get the visible part out of your hair, you need to bring your hair forward from much further back (closer to the crown of your head). Also, layer at the top (sort of a scene mullet.)
  • Blonde hair works great with emo hair, you can add some cool, brightly hued highlight. Dye it black, plum or navy or get brown w/ blue, black and plum streaks.
  • To make your hair grow, do cornrolls and use organic shampoo.
  • Emo hair won’t look good with a round race. Try long hair with layers and bangs off to one side instead.
  • You can dye your hair with a dark, shiny, sexy shade like a black-pink combination or a dark brown, which are the most common colors.
  • You can highlight the tips of your hair with purple or blue that should be well mixed with the above used color.
  • Go like heaps of layers and longish kinda spike at the back with all different color blondes through it.
  • Leave it long, color it black and get thick blunt front bangs that go down to your eyes but don't cover them. If you are exotic looking, you can pull off black. Maybe get a chunk of blonde to peek through the side (one side only.) Layer the front around your face.
  • Spiderweb isn’t that great. Try some smoky eyes instead.
  • Unfortunately you can never not have a part in your hair, unless maybe you’ve got an afro that sticks straight out everywhere. There are two types of parts, your natural part (where your hair naturally falls) and a forced part (one you force yourself). Just train your hair to go where you want it to by forcing it into that position everyday until it falls that way itself.
  • When you need a more laid back kinda look you can just have it straightened with a bit of hair spray for volume.
  • Emo hairstyles needs a lot of maintenance such as blow drying, STRAIGHTENING, & coloring. Invest in good straighteners!
  • Emo hair can look good on a guy but NEVER take it to the point where people can’t tell your gender.
  • Photobucket is your friend ;)
