Here comes the grooming: Growing pains of men’s hairstyles
S
INCE I can remember,
I have done everything
humanly possible to
my hair. I’ve dyed it,
streaked it, gelled it,
moussed it, tousled it — everything except set it on fire.
Now, I have decided to keep
it hassle-free by shaving it every
two weeks. But for many guys,
hair maintenance has become a
holy grooming ritual.
My roommate during my
first year at college would spend
at least 45 minutes in front of
the mirror each morning caking
on Dep hair gel and styling it
until it was as flawless as a
Rodin sculpture.
After he molded his hair into
a gelatinous muck of beauty, he
would spend about 15 minutes
inspecting the length of his sideburns. He’d check his profile
from both sides to ensure that
the length, the thickness and
the shape of his growing chops
were to his satisfaction.
In fact, he was always insecure about his sideburns. At
least once every hour he would
ask me, “How do my sideburns
look?” I always awkwardly responded, “They look great!”
But who was I to judge? I always kept an arsenal of Aqua
Net in my dorm. I felt that the
stiffer and stickier the hair, the
better the style.
Today, men’s hair grooming
locks: feathery, long and flowy.
Guys thought, “If the ladies can
do it, why can’t we?”
Men started to wear their
tresses a little longer, a la “Partridge Family” heartthrob David
Cassidy. The feathered, shoulder-length craze started to takeover and was worn by John
Travolta during his “Saturday
Night Fever” phase, and Donny
Osmond let his hair bounce
with glee as he flashed his
pearly whites.
This style was worn best by

the disco-cool bachelor

has been lavishly amplified to
luxe proportions. Guys no
longer use regular mousse or
gel; they use “product” like clay
pomades, hair wax, bodybuilding gels, sleek texture finishing creams — need I say
more?
All these products have
brought men’s hair care to the
same level as women’s hair
care. The trends in men’s hair
define a generation — even if
some are unforgivable.
The classic businessman’s cut
Like the name suggests, this
is a hairstyle that remains a failsafe. It is mostly defined as a
conservative cut where the sides
and back are relatively short
(not a fade) and the top has
enough hair to be parted or
brushed back. It’s a general
style that can be tweaked to
make it modern but still main-

tain its classicism.
Hugh Laurie of the TV show
“House” is often used as a contemporary example; Cary Grant
is synonymous with the style.
The feathered ’70s
Hairstyles from this era took
a cue from the world’s fascination with Farrah Fawcett’s
curls (which looked like onion
rings) intact while driving a robotic car.
The Caesar cut
This style came about in the
late ’90s. Actually, it came in
vogue when Julius Caesar
lorded over ancient Rome. Unfortunately, all his Roman
homeboys assassinated him.
Characterized by short, horizontally cut straight bangs, the
style was popularized by George
Clooney. Hordes of men started
cutting their hair short enough
to comb the bangs forward for a
masculine China doll look.
The style died when Clooney
grew his hair out. Frat boys everywhere became confused
about what to do with their
straight-cut bangs.
