Tell us about the haircut.
At the time we did this cut, Pete worked a conservative job, but as you can see, he has a bit of an edgy side. We needed a style we could be versatile and work well at work, but he could play with when he's just being himself. We decided to go with an aggressively tight fade on the sides and back and styled the cut into an exaggerated faux hawk which works well with his piercings and style. At work, he removes the piercings and styles the hair conservatively.
Tell us how the cut was styled.
To style this cut, simply apply a healthy dollop of firm hold gel. Work the gel around in your hands and apply to the hair as if you were shampooing it in. Brush all of the hair straight up and back and then press it into a center point using the palms of your hands. American Crew Firm Hold Gel was used for this style. For a more conservative look, the hair can be brushed down and to the side.
Advice
- Can be worn messy and spiky on top, brushed conservatively or worn as a faux hawk as shown.
