Stylish Male Haircuts


Stylish Male HaircutsAs expected, what are considered to be stylish male haircuts tend to vary from place to place, and from group of people to another. Generally though, stylish male haircuts can be described as those that are 'not plain' - that is, male haircuts that give the wearers distinctive looks. It has to be quickly added, though, that the distinctive look so acquired has to be 'distinctive' in a positive way, otherwise the wearer runs the risk of coming across as 'clownish' rather than 'stylish,' as would have been the aim.

Seen as encompassing all haircuts that are not 'plain' then, the stylish male haircuts category turns out to be a very wide one indeed - encompassing pretty much every distinctive (as opposed to plain) hairstyle out there. It is worth reiterating though, that although every distinctive hairstyle would be considered 'stylish' in one setting or another, there is - as of now - no universal agreement as what would be considered stylish or not, so that what is considered a distinctive look at one place could be considered 'clownish' or simply plain in another place. The moral here is that if you are a man, and you are moving from one place to another (say emigrating from Asia to the United States), and you want to always come across as stylish, you have to be aware that what might have been considered stylish haircuts in your homeland might not be considered as such in your new residence - hence the need to conduct area-specific research with regard to what constitute stylish male haircuts in the United States, or wherever you are moving to.

It might also be mentioned that what are considered 'plain' haircuts in one place (and therefore out of contention for consideration as 'stylish), can often turn out to be considered quite stylish in another place; especially if the other place we are looking at happens to be a place with men who are given to getting 'outrageously' decorative haircuts. What we would be looking at is a situation where something like the 'buzz' haircuts - which are defined by their 'relative plainness,' thanks to the short cropping of hair which defines them, can turn out to be considered extremely stylish in a setting where men are given to keeping long hair, so that having short cropped like, like the variety that buzz haircuts produces, sets apart the person who happens to acquire such a look from the 'pack' in a positive way - thus making him come across as 'stylish.'



Men's Hairstyles Through the Ages


Men's Hairstyles Through the AgesWomen tend to think that men have it so easy when it comes to choosing a hairstyle. Should it be a low-number clipper cut, or maybe a short-back and sides? However, it would probably come as a big surprise to learn just how complex men's hairstyles have become over the past few decades.

In historical times, men often sported quite luxurious hairstyles - think of the wigs in the French Courts in the 1700s. However, the Victorian era signalled the start of a more subdued time, with women's styles being natural and tame, whilst men kept their hair very short, lathered in macasser oil, and sported a beard, sideburns or a moustache. As we progressed into the 1920's, hair for men was very simple - short and neat, and an outrageous style statement for men at this time probably constituted something as simple as a side parting.

Men's Hairstyles Through the AgesThis continued until after the Second World War, after which time things seemed to relax and men began to wear their hair long or slicked back, which was considered to be very 'Hollywood' for men. However the 1950's was considered to be one of the turning points for men's' hairstyles, as Elvis and James Dean hit the headlines with their enviable quiffs, and long and heavy sideburns. As a consequence men everywhere started to take more time over their appearance.

The 1970's proved a great decade for men's hair - personal expression was the key to a great hairstyle. Groovy looks were big this era, and both men and women embraced more natural styles with longer locks and shaggy tresses. Think the Beatles, the Stones and David Cassidy - all had great shaggy styles. There is evidence that many of the 1970's hairstyles are on trend today, because they are classically appealing.

As we sweep through to the eighties, music and film idols still influenced the hairstyles of the decade. At the start of the eighties there were two schools of influence in men's hairdressing, both of which were influenced by music. There was the cult of the Mods, where men were very minimalist in their choice of styles; shaved heads perfectly accompanying sharp suits in monochrome colours. At the other extreme there were the New Romantics with their more flamboyant styling, long fringes and bold highlights.



Top Men's Hairstyle Trends For 2010


Top Men's Hairstyle Trends For 2010Hairstyle is an important part of one's personality that can take a look from drab to fab or vice versa.

For a big statement look, try a part from left to right that overlaps slightly on right side. These classic hairstyles are extremely easy for a barber to replicate, very straightforward for you to maintain and are universally flattering.

Men's Fringe Hairstyles:

Men's fringe cut comes in variety of lengths so you can play with the look to suit your face shape. It is a major men's hairstyle for 2010. Fringes in two contrasting colors also look great.

This hairstyle requires spending a few minutes more in front of mirror. Sleek hairstyle, especially sleek back hairstyle is 'in' hairstyle for men. For guys with straight hair, sticking to a longer cut on top and for guys with wavy hair opting for short hair on top would be apt. Those with curly hair, if want to go for this hairstyle would have to dedicate vast amount of time each morning to style sleek back hair.



Black Hairstyles For Men


Black Hairstyles For MenThere are some traditional black hairstyles for men that never go out of style. These styles are classic looking and reflect tapered cuts that are easy to maintain and suitable for any type of clothing or event.

One particular style is the afro. In the 70s and 80s, the afro was a mass of long hair that bobbed within a man's hip walk. Today, the afro has been shortened significantly but still reflects taste and style.
Black Hairstyles For MenAnother style is the jheri curl. This versatile curl makes it possible to wear the hair in a tousled curly look or to gently brush the curls down into a suavy, wavy back swept pattern.

Cornrows have never really left the style choices for men of color but did wane for awhile as a viable choice because it was synonymous with troublemakers or hoodlums. Today, cornrows are back and men can be seen sporting them in various wavy patterns of long and short lengths.

Although it is actually an absence of hair, going bald has become an increasingly popular choice for men of color. Bald does require the same maintenance, if not higher, as a short style does. The classic elegance that many women find appealing for the bald choice speaks for itself.

Other black hairstyles for men that may stay or go include intricate lines that shape words or symbols into the hair, bold colors such as blonde frosted onto a small portion of the back of the hair and asymmetrical cuts with varying lengths.

Tapered sides compliment styles such as the hightop fade where plenty of hair height is left on top of the head. Tapering also works well for basic cuts for men and boys of color.

Drug Withdrawal - It's So Common It's On Television


Drug Withdrawal - It's So Common It's On TelevisionFrom the time we are young enough to understand, we are taught that using drugs is a bad thing. Still the number of drugs addicts continues to rise? Even though there are countless groups and organizations that fight to prevent drug abuse, we are still losing the battle against drugs. Everybody knows that using drugs can shorten your life span. Why then are we seeing so many people experiencing drug withdrawal?

The Reasons Why We See So Many Enduring Drug Withdrawal

Society is partially at fault for the increase in drug usage. More and more celebrities aren't ashamed to admit that they use drugs and cater to alcohol manufacturers in their music videos and red carpet appearances. Once, this behavior was only tolerated for the bad boys and girls of Hollyweird. Now, boozing and using drugs is how you get on the cover of magazines. When teenagers see their role models defiantly breaking the law and abusing drugs, they typically follow.

Rehab, believe it or not, makes for good television. Some how shows like Intervention, Celebrity Rehab, and Sober House all make drug usage interesting. It's quite scary that one person's pain and self inflicted, death sentence is worthy of a television show. Perhaps, drug usage was less trendy when it was hidden and not popularized on television. Sadly, there is nothing exciting about watching someone experience drug withdrawal. No matter how sad the statistics are and what they see on television, there are still people who have to experiment with drugs. Too often, these experiments become long-term abuse instead of a one time trial.
