TRENDS IN MEN'S HAIR

THE GOOD, BAD AND COMPLETLY REDICULOUS 

VS

With so many web sites and social media pages dedicated to men's hair (including mine) how do you decide what is a trend you should try and what to avoid. 

Just because someone out in the world saw an off the wall attempt at a haircut and figured "this must be the trend" and then began to talk about it as if that makes it true. Well unfortunately without good
advice, it might actually work.

This is my example in the two collections above. You should clearly be able to see the difference. However on page after page I've seen cuts out of the second collection touted as the new trend ... Disconnected undercut or ruff fade is what they called them. 

I can only assume this was some inexperianced barber or fancy hairdressers attempt at a fade. In their eyes it actually resembled a good fade. Or they just gave up half way through and tried to pass it off as good.

The cuts in the first picture a what disconnected fades or "undercuts" should look like. I don't even know where the term ruff fade came from. But if I'm ever caught giving one it's time for me to give up my clippers.

My best advise when it comes to trends and haircuts in general... Does it look purposeful? Is it ment to look that way, this shouldn't be a question.

So if you're tired of you regular cut and want to try something new, go for it! Just make sure the trend is done right. 

If you are tired of your undercut and want something with a little more edge, try to add some lines or a man braid. Two styles that will stand out but still leave no question that you mean for them to look that way.
