The Revival of a Rockin’ Trend
When it comes to men’s hairstyles, it’s been pretty basic for the most part. Typically, there hasn’t been much variation. However, with younger males growing their hair out longer (ala Justin Bieber), we’ve discussed how to talk to a male customer about product. Reports have also come out talking about more customers, particularly men, willing to spend more on their appearance and more males are finally breaking down the barrier between them and product.
Our friends at American Crew see men starting to get a little more aggressive with their style, but it’s requiring them to go back in time a bit. In a look brings the masculine and rugged appearance into a modern and trendy look, the pompadour is making its way back.
American Crew sees three variations of the pompadour: the classic, the relaxed pompadour and the side-part “greaser” style. The style requires the top to remain long, while the sides and back are cut short.
What are you seeing in the salon? Are you seeing any of your customers coming in for this classic, rocker look?
