Short Haircuts For Summer

When the temperature rises, the hair falls. This time of year many men take it short to cool off and cut down on maintenance. This summer, get your cool on at the barbershop. Short. Sexy. Perfect for summer.

Saving Money or Razor Blades

Tuesday July 5, 2011
The EverBlade is a product which the manufacturer claims to extend the life of your razor blades by creating an energy field around the blade to repel rust and corrosion. It all sounds a little gimmicky, but in my tests it did seem to work. Check out my review of the EverBlade for the scoop.

Styling Product and Sunscreen in One? Score!

Tuesday June 28, 2011

I spend a lot of time outside when the weather is warm, so I'm constantly fiddling with hats and I've even resorted to using a facial moisturizer with SPF as my styling product to protect my scalp from the sun. Neither is a great option, but keeping the scalp protected from the sun is critical.

Needless to say, I was kinda jazzed with I learned there's a new product on the market that combines and styling product and sunscreen in one. Of course, it is from the people at AXE and it's sometimes hard for me to look past their cheesy marketing and excessive packaging and see the product underneath. I'm pleased to report in my Review of AXE Crew Cut Buzzed Look Cream with Sunscreen SPF 15, the product is a solid performer as a styling product (if you have shorter hair) and it offers protection from the sun. A much needed product and I hope more manufacturers will follow suit.

Men's Fade Haircuts

Thursday June 9, 2011

The men's fade haircut is one of my favorite types of haircuts (and it's also one of the toughest haircuts to perform correctly). A great fade will have no visible lines and blend evenly from the skin-tight section into the length on top. This is the style of haircut I often wear myself, especially in the summer.

It's difficult to find well-executed examples of the men's fade haircut, so when I came across Johan Ruiz on Facebook, I had to share his work with you. If you're ever in the Warminster, Pennsylvania area, I suggest looking Johan up at Precision Barbershop -- from the looks of the photos in our men's fade haircut gallery, you won't be disappointed.

Barbers and stylists -- do you have what it takes?  Guys -- Do you have a great haircut?  Show us your cuts!

Short Summer Haircuts

Tuesday May 31, 2011

With Memorial Day in our rearview mirror, it can only mean one thing -- the warm weather is here and it's just going to get warmer! Here at the Men's Hair headquarters in Atlanta, the temperatures are starting to hit the 100 degree mark. How's a guy to keep cool? Get a haircut.

I believe a shorter haircut will indeed leave you feeling cooler. Getting that hair off your neck and forehead will certainly let the cool breeze hit more of your head, but even the psychology of a short haircut will make you feel cooler. Ready to take the plunge and go short for the summer? Take a look at a few of my style galleries for men's short haircuts for summer and low maintenance men's haircuts that look great for inspiration for your cool summer 'do.
