6 Tips on Get Your Dream Haircut

| comments

To look and feel your best, a good haircut is essential. The correct haircut can bring you self-confidence and satisfaction. A proper haircut can flatter the face, bring focus to the eyes, and minimize flaws. Most importantly, a haircut is a reflection of one’s personality. And as such, the better the cut, the more confident you feel. Here are 7 tips on how to get the haircut you want and deserve:



Tip 1. Do I Need a Matchmaking Service? Finding a good stylist can be likehairstyle1.jpg searching for your next girlfriend. Ask around and find out which stylist or salon your friends use, or you can ask someone whose hair you admire. Perhaps you have seen a salon around town that looks cool and you’ve been wanting to give it a try. In this case I would call them up and ask if they specialize in a certain types of haircuts or styles. Would they consider themselves to be modern or classic in their attitude toward style? Edgy or conservative?  



Tip2. Do Not Ignore Others Suggestions. Remember that you want to look great for others, so try to ask your friends for suggestions of hairstyles that they think looks good on you. But your friends are secondary only, to achieve the best hairstyle ask the experts a.k.a. your hairstylist. They know the best for you. If you dont like it, don’t worry, hair always grow back! Mens hairstyles Tip 3. Don’t Be Shy. You might want to call or drop in a salon and ask if the stylists will give a free consultation before you make an appointment. Find out what their style is and the kind of cuts they are particularly good at cutting. Maybe they are better at certain types of styles than others or maybe they typically do women’s hair. It’s good to find these things out before they start whacking at your hair.





Tip4. Find a barber who cuts your style well. Looking for a good barber? Here’s thehairstyle2.jpg easiest way to find one. Ask. If you see a guy with a great haircut - one that’s similar to the style you’re looking for - ask him where he got it cut. Just walk right up and say, “Hey man. Cool haircut. I’ve been looking for a new barber, who cuts yours.” Yeah, it might be a bit awkward, but you might just find a great barber in the process. Oh… and regardless of what you might think, the guy will consider it a compliment that you asked.  



Tip 5. Communicate Well and Be Good to your hairstylist. A proper communication and a good relation between you and your hairstylist is very helpful to achieve optimum result. When you describe the desired length of your hair, use your hands instead of describing in inches, it’s a lot easier to understand by your stylist. As much as possible bring pictures of the desired hairstyle that you’ve seen in magazines or Internet. Pictures are truly worth a thousand words, so dont be shy to bring a piece.

Tip 6. Take a picture. I’m not sure why so many men have such a problem with this one, but it you’re looking for a new style and you find one you like in a magazine or photograph (or this website), print out a copy and take it with you to the barber. This will help the barber understand exactly what you’re after without having to explain it (something we guys are notoriously bad a doing). Just be realistic. If you look like Bill Clinton, a barber can’t make you look like Brad Pitt or if your hair has the texture of a pot scrubber, he won’t be able to make it silky smooth. The photo will, however, give your barber an idea of what you want so he can create a similar style that works well with your hair and face. Oh, and no he won’t think your a girlie man for taking a photo - he’ll appreciate the effort. I always do.

 

Tip 7. Money Money Money Tip appropriately or you may not want your stylist to have a pair scissors near your face the next time you drop in. A Proper tip is 15% to 20% for your stylist & $5 for the person who washes your hair, if someone other than your stylist is doing so.

Man Fashion Tips: Men Dress Suit Care

| comments

Decision in buying a dress suit for yourself is fairly simple, but there are other more critical consideration beside dollar and cents. Yes! How to take care of your dress suit. So dress suit care should be on the top of your to do list once you purchase your suit. Some of the suit care that you might want to consider: dry cleaning, tailoring, storage and moth protection.

Mens Dress Suit
Moth Protection - It would be a great tragedy if you wore a $1,000.00 dress suit once and then found it had been eaten by moths the second time you went to wear it. Moth protection is a must for anybody keeping suits in their house. These little insects can cause big problems in a matter of seconds. Unless you plan on keeping an eye on all your suits at all times you should take measures to protect them.
Mens Dress Suit
The biggest enemy to the moth besides your fly swatter and array of poisons is cedar. These bugs despise the pleasant smell of cedar and will not go near it. A cedar closet is the ideal body guard for your clothes. However, cedar hangers are much more affordable, portable, and financially viable.

Suit Storage - You'll want to have your suit ready to wear at all times which means curled up in a ball under your bed is not an option.

Suit storage is a necessary piece of the suit care puzzle. Storing your dress clothes in a haphazardly manner can cause you a lot of pain when you go to wear them.
Mens Dress Suit
Suits need to be properly cleaned and pressed after use. Hang them in a manner that keeps them from acquiring any new wrinkles in between uses.

Cedar closets are the ideal place to hang your suits but a normal closet out of direct sunlight is a fitting alternative.

Suit Alterations - Unless you plan on staying the exact same size all of your life you will probably need to find a good tailor.

Areas that can be tailored elegantly are:

1. Waist - The waist can be taken in aggressively to make the pants more snug. Expanding the waist is limited to how much excess material is in the pants. You can tell how much you have by looking inside the back of the pants.

2. Legs - The legs are like the waist in that they can be shortened by great lengths but are limited in the amount you can lengthen them.

Jackets can be let out at the waist and shortened at the sleeves but be careful to get a good tailor if you decide to do anything else.

Dry Cleaning - If you decide to just pop your suit in the washing machine you can probably forget about ever being able to wear it again.

Good dry cleaners can really make a mans life easy. Being able to toss your suit on without having to worry about whether or not it was done correctly takes some of the daily stress away. Besides, we have enough to worry about don't we?

Man Fashion: Spring Fashion

| comments

Spring break is a time to reflect on the year so far, take time off, and definitely catch up on some needed fashion tips. So, whether you're staying at home and are looking for some comfy, relaxing clothes, or going on a trip and needing some style guidance, fashion is never too far away.

Penny Saver
If you're not into spending a ton of money, take five or so items out of your closet and invite friends over to do the same so you can exchange items and update your wardrobe effortlessly. This way, you can get a few free items and wear them your own personal way without emptying your wallet. Plus, it's a good way to spend quality time with your friends and get to know each other better.


Couch Lounging
For starters, tons of people on campus prefer to spend their time at home instead of taking expensive trips over spring break. So if you love to lounge and be comfortable, here are the perfect items that you need. Obviously, everyone needs a good, sturdy yet flattering, pair of sweatpants that don't absolutely drown your figure.

Hanes has a great line of matching sweatshirts and pants that are priced, at the most, $16 a piece. These sweatpants outfits for men are different from other brands such as Land's End, Adidas, and Champion because Hanes is not only more affordable, but more accessible at Walmart and select Walgreens stores.


Spring Essentials
Spring break is the ideal time to grab a few essentials for the new season, and re-create your wardrobe with a few new items. Since shopping is quite an exhilarating experience, if you happen to have the funds, there are some items that you have to grab this season.

Men obviously don't have to mix up their wardrobe too much, but there are some things they should be adding along the way this spring break. Purchasing a couple of graphic t-shirts and polo shirts is a great investment because they can go a long way. Graphic t-shirts are great for hanging out with friends, playing sports outside, or lounging around in the house.

Polo shirts are good for night time activities to dress up your attire a tad bit, or you can even tuck it in to wear for a special event or interview.
