lthough originally intended for women in the 1700s, the pompadour

hairstyle was eventually adapted for men, popularized after being seen

on rock and roll legends like Elvis Presley and Little Richard. It has

proved a timeless classic, most recently featured in a collection of looks

by Irish barber and Eufora Hero for Men educator John Keegan. “What inspired me

for this image was 1950s-style pompadours, but I wanted to add a modern twist,”

Keegan says. “The look was styled to show the real depth of the haircut. I’m known

for my pompadours, and in my eyes, this style is the most challenging to perfect. It

constantly tests my skills as a stylist.” Keegan employed precision cutting for its strong lines and classic finish, while

the textured look adds length on top to maximize movement. To achieve this style, he

created a square shape by layering on top and made sure that his blow-dry finish lent

volume. For the defined styling lines, Keegan used his own “Ellie definition styling

comb” with Eufora Elevate Finishing Spray. “I call this look and style the ‘Dismantled

Pompadour,’” explains Keegan. “It’s a classic cut with a fresh finish. The higher the

hair, the closer you are to heaven.”

LET THE LIGHT IN.

As highlights

continue gaining

traction in male

grooming, it’s clear

that sun-touched

locks look hot on

both sexes. “Add

subtle color to

revitalize strands,

infuse shine and

complement tan skin

tones,” advises Gary

Baker, UNITE (@unite_hair)

creative director. But

don’t forget to tweak techniques

to suit men’s individual needs.

“Try more subtle, softer painting

options instead of traditional foiling

methods,” offers Jessica Zeinstra,

Andis (@andisclippers) global

education manager.

CHOP A CROP. “Long pompadours may be too hot to trot, so beat the heat by cutting length on sides and introducing a disconnected drop fade,” recommends Kelly Bileddo, Sexy Hair (@sexyhair) master artist and owner of Salon Antebellum in Saint Louis, Missouri. Or go even shorter with a classic crop, which Gibs Grooming (@gibsgrooming) educator Danny Amorim calls “by far the steamiest current trend.”

A furry face lends natural

insulation, but beards don’t

need to be nixed once

winter wanes. Instead, opt

for stubble. “Buzz down

beards with a 3 guard,

starting under the ear and

working up into a fade,”

suggests Gama Diaz,

BaBylissPRO

(@babylissprousa) platform

artist and educator.

Finished looks should be

maintained but not overly

manicured. “The overall

vibe is carefree facial hair,”

reveals Casey Terramoccia,

Agadir (@agadirint) stylist

and owner of Iconic Barber

Shop & Shave Parlor in

Glen Rock, New Jersey.

“Summer is in full swing and men’s tress trends are continuing their seasonal evolution,”

notes Danny Amorim, Gibs Grooming educator and master barber. Keeping pace with the

soaring mercury are an assortment of sizzling looks. —FM

Manly Makeovers

“Faded summer stubble should

reveal a sharp jawline,” says Diaz.BETTER BUNS. “Morph last season’s man bun by straying from the typical U-shaped pattern and cutting in a deep V contour pointing down toward the neck,” proposes Amber Smelker, Eufora (@euforainternational) stylist and owner of Salon Nouveau in Tucson, Arizona. Razors are rad for this type of trim. “The tool ensures styles look naturally lived-in, while thinning weight so napes may breathe,” adds V76 (@V76) educator Manny Rolon.

“Rework the classic

pompadour with

summer lovin’ middle

parts and Caesar

cuts,” suggests Kelly

Bileddo.

According to

Danny Amorim,

because it’s

trendy with

minimal

disconnection.

MORE HEAT.

“Gentlemen, fear not the hot tools!” urges Ricardo Santiago,

Olivia Garden (@oliviagardenint) lead educator. At the end

of the day, blow-drying remains the best way to achieve cool

styles; polish looks with a lightweight, frizz-fi ghting texturizer.

“Messily styled manes still look good after getting brutalized by

humidity and more active warm weather lifestyles,” muses Wahl

(@wahlpro) education and artistic team member Jose Barba.

Amber Smelker

“Ladies and gents can both have fun as

blondes,” says Gary Baker.
