Hairstyles for Men with Long Hair

by Kamen Loze

When it comes to hair, there is nothing more appealing and attractive than long, thick, textured and coarse hair. Long hairstyles are a great way to show the glamour and shine of natural hair. Whether it is a birthday party, a candle light dinner, or a wedding, long hairs can style out to be more appealing and beautiful. Many men do not have bangs and you will be surprised at just how much of a difference bangs can do. Bangs will add a whole new look to your face.

What is so good about men with bangs? Well, those bangs on men will help to make the face look thinner and elongated. Bangs can give a man an edgier, sharper look. When it comes to bangs on men, it does not matter if you have long hair, short hair or medium hair. Either way you go, at all lengths, bangs will look good. Trendy hair styles for men have great ranges. It's currently in style for men to have short, medium, or long hair - or to even have a bald head. For those men who want to make a statement with their hair you might want to try the popular “faux hawk” men's hair style.

This style is an updated version of the severe Mohawk hairstyle but without the shaved sides. There are many factors such as age, style, and clothing to name a few that can effect what hairstyles will look good on you. The most concerning point for men is hair loss. Many men face it and it can become a very emotional and stressful period as men start to lose their hair. Hair can look trendy when it is either short or long, as long as it has a modern cut.

Over time, this thinning turns into a full fledged bald spot, and the bald spot grows to cover the head, apart from the sides and around the back. Regardless of this, as long as there is a single hair left on my head I'll still demand a stylish coiffure. So, what balding hairstyle options are available? The worst balding men's hairstyle is the comb over. This is the classic look beloved of men of a certain age whereby the hair is grown longer on one side of the head and 'combed over' the bald area to the other side.

This strategy only spells disaster even in the slightest of breezes and is to be avoided at all costs. But assuming you already know this, what are the other do's and don'ts to balding men's hairstyles? The first common mistake is combing the hair straight back. This may cover bald spots, but it only exposes the forehead and draws attention to the receding hairline.

If your hair is long enough you can pull it into a ponytail, and slick it back for a clean tidy look. You can even braid it if it flies all over the place. Men don't curl their hair, but sometimes it's necessary to flat iron a frizzy set of hair. Yes, we know it doesn't sound like something you would want to do, but having long hair has its price. You can always go for a trim on the day of the event. Let the hairdresser know it is a special occasion and that you need it styled too.

Five Commandments Of Mens Fashion

By: Hendrik Pohl

Less flashier than the ladies' arena, men's fashion is a much simpler world. With fewer choices to go on, you also have less what-ifs to worry about. If you're not as stylish as you want to be, here are five simple rules to live, and dress by to help you get started.

Find a Tailor
Tailors are something of deities in the world of men's fashion. With shears and thread in hand, they can emphasize any asset, hide any flaw and make you look as close as you can get to those photos in the glossies. So find a good tailor and stick by him and his advice.

Besides, the fashionable man doesn't go to his tailor only for suits. He gets pants and shirts made (or at least altered) there. New jackets must be subject to modifications at the hands of the craftsman. Jeans should get hemmed and fixed to fit snugly. You should be wearing your clothes, not the other way around, and your tailor helps you do just that.

Get Your Fit
Why are tailors so important? Because a good fit is priceless. Regardless of the era or prevailing statement in men's fashion, none of it will look good unless the fit is right. Never settle for any piece of clothing that doesn't fit you the way it should. Buying an ill-fitting pair of denims or a shirt one size too big is just wasting money.

Before going to the store, know your size. Different brands have different sizing schemes, and what's Large for one retailer might just be a Medium for another. Nevertheless, make it a point to fit the clothes before buying and to always take one last look at the mirror. The mirror is the final test to see if any piece of clothing is worth buying. If it looks good when it's actually on you, it's time to queue up at the checkout counter.

Invest in Quality
Premium men's fashion is expensive for a reason, and it's not just the advertising hype. The best brands always have history and craftsmanship behind them that make their stuff worth the sky-high price tags. There's an unquantifiable benefit when a silk tie is hand-rolled by a third generation craftsman, or a suit is assembled by a century-old brand.

That's what you're paying for. That, plus the fact that quality goods look better and last longer. You'd do better to invest in just a few premium pieces than innumerable generic ones from the clearance rack at Target.

Start Caring
Discipline is often associated as a male quality, and you'll need it if you're going to take your clothes seriously. High-end men's fashion demands for a near-religious level of maintenance, and it's time you started learning the ropes. Start by familiarizing yourself with the common terms on care labels, and then actually following them.

Each article of clothing in your wardrobe needs one method or another of maintenance. Shoes need to be put on shoe trees and regularly conditioned. Silk neckties need to be sent to a fabric specialist every so often. Tailored suits should be handled by dry cleaners and no one else. It's a long list of rules to follow if you want to make your clothes last.

Play Matchmaker
If you weren't a dab hand with mixing colors back in art class, that has to change now. Since men's fashion uses individual pieces instead of the ladies' gowns and dresses, you have to be able to put together shirts with ties, pants with socks and so on.

Read through art books and primers, as most of them have guides on matching colors and patterns. Stick a color wheel near your closet, if you're rarely sure of which shade or hue to get. Don't put off learning this, else you'll be wasting time matching ties to shirts every morning.

Yes, men's fashion can get complicated. These rules simplify just a small part of the big picture. At the end of the day, the only rule you'll have to remember is to wear whatever it is that looks good in the mirror.
