It's Raining Men!

I got outside this morning and for the first time in what seems like ages I smelt the freshness of rain. Here in the Fraser Valley that smell is all too familiar because it rains.. a lot.. like a lot a lot. But this fall has been the first fall in my life time where the rain was completely absent! Which was just the break I think we all needed! The sun was out everyday with no clouds in sight, and when the leaves started to turn different colors it was gorgeous!  But because I couldn't remember the last time it did rain, I stepped outside and it was kind of refreshing! Kind of the, "Annnnnddd were back" feeling. I probably won't feel the same way about it in a couple of months but hey! It's nice for now :) So enough about the weather, let's get back to hair! Men's hair! I love to talk about men's hair because I feel men have been left in the dust when it comes to style. We get men that come in the shop all the time asking to see pictures of men's styles, or asking me for different ideas and it can be somewhat of a challenge through the sea of women's styles. Thank goodness for the internet!! It was DEFINITIVELY easy pick my favorites and looking at all that eye candy ;) Let the rain pour, gentlemen! 

 A very classic look. short and sweet.
 "Brotip #788: no bro should ever spend more time doing his hair than his girlfriend."
Every guy wants that careless, I just got out of bed look. If you want something easy, keep it short!

Ahhh.. Zach Effron.. rocking the part and modern combover. Need I say more? 
 Screams hockey all star...I absolutely love this look, maybe because I'm Canadian.. eh?
 A version of a Pompadour. Looks really classy paired with a suit but can be worn in a casual way. Plus is adds height for those nights your lady decides to wear her stilettos. 
 The look is very polished, but the cut is so versitile. Extreme disconnection which leaves a lot of room to play around while still keeping it clean at the sides. Wear it up, wear it down, sideways, add texture, keep it sleek, all back, all forward.  you get the idea.

If your going to do spikes, please use a paste, wax, or spray. Dippity doo called, it wants to go back to the 90's and never come back.

 Love the texture! 
 For the curly hair men: invest in some product! Underneath that frizz is beautiful curl.

 oh, hey there.
 Simple
 Keeping the sides short but still having length on the top gives you many styling options without the wings.
DO NOT BE AFRAID OF COLOR!! They have come a long way when it comes to coloring for men, especially in the grey blending department. It adds just a little more pepper to your already salt and pepper hair. 

 Oh, whats that? Another parted comb over? =D
 Extreme height.
 I think Brad Pitt can pull off anything but the stubble to messy hair ratio is spot on.
 Very strong lines = very flattering
