The Benefits of Regular Haircuts

You probably grew up thinking that split ends were the one sign to look for. But split ends are actually a sign that you’ve waited too long. Before the splitting, the ends of your hair may feel dry and brittle. You may also find that it’s getting difficult to brush or comb your hair all the way through. Styling may also prove to be more time-consuming, and your overall hair may seem lifeless compared to normal.

More Than Just Looking Good

There’s nothing quite like the feeling of walking out of a salon with a fresh haircut. Not only do you look great, but you feel confident and refreshed. But did you know that there are many benefits to getting a regular haircut beyond just looking good? In this blog post, we’ll explore the many ways that regular haircuts can improve your overall health and wellbeing.

1. Healthy Hair

Regular haircuts can keep your hair healthy and free of split ends. When you trim your hair regularly, you remove damaged and split ends, which can prevent further damage from occurring. This can help your hair grow longer and stronger, and give it a healthy, shiny appearance. For more inspiration read our blog on middle part hairstyles for men.

Chris Pine – This slick ‘do is clipper cut short and close to the head maintaining a clean finish to the edges, while the top is left long enough to sweep back. 
Zac Efron – Cool and wispy is the main idea for this hairstyle, with the short cut sides and back while the top length is left long and jagged cut to achieve maximum height.

2. Improved Scalp Health

Regular haircuts can also help to improve your scalp health. When your hair is longer, it can trap dirt and oil, which can lead to scalp irritation and even dandruff. Regular haircuts can help to keep your scalp clean and free of buildup, which can improve overall scalp health.

David Beckham – One of Becks’ best-loved hairstyles has to be the pompadour – although it can on occasion be classed as a quiff hairstyle, depending on the length.
Harry Styles – Harry Styles has pulled off short hair many times over the years. His short hairstyle is a trendy look with flow, volume and height that enhances his sex appeal.

3. Stress Relief

Taking time for self-care is essential for overall health and wellbeing, and getting a regular haircut can be a great way to do just that. A trip to the salon can be a relaxing and indulgent experience, and can help to relieve stress and promote relaxation. Wondering how often you should have a cut?

Chris Hemsworth  – This style is called a lesbian hairstyle. It keeps the hair around the nape and the sides short with enough length left up on top to brush to one side in a messy style.
George Clooney – One of the most popular George Clooney haircuts is this outgrown buzz cut. A well-kept beard tops off this simple and sexy look that is low-maintenance requiring a trim every few weeks.

4. Boost in Confidence

When you look good, you feel good. A fresh haircut can boost your confidence and self-esteem, making you feel more positive and ready to take on the world. This can have a ripple effect on other areas of your life, such as your work and personal relationships.

Jason Momoa – He has been rocking our underwater screens and is now rocking this long-haired, curly locks look that is taking our screens by storm.

5. Improved Mental Health

Self-care is an important part of maintaining good mental health, and getting a regular haircut can be a small but significant act of self-care. Taking time for yourself and treating yourself to a luxury grooming experience can help to boost your mood and improve your overall mental wellbeing.

Cutting-Your-hair-regularly
Lewis Hamilton – Formula 1 superstar, Lewis Hamilton, keeps his afro-textured hair neat and stylised with tight and symmetrical plaited braids. This hairstyle definitely calls for the hands of a professional barber with such even sections and tidy hairline.
Russell Brand – long hair has subtle layers cut through the edges to enhance the waves and movement though the back and sides to make it soft and sexy. This is best suited for those with fine to medium hair and will need regular trims every 4-6 weeks to avoid split ends and maintain shape.

Ready for regular haircuts?

In conclusion, the benefits of regular haircuts go beyond just looking good. They can improve the health of your hair and scalp, relieve stress, boost your confidence, and improve your overall mental wellbeing. So next time you’re due for a trim, consider it an opportunity for some much-needed self-care and indulge in the experience. Your hair (and your mental health) will thank you for it.

The Executive Contour

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

It’s not a cut. It’s a tool to get what you want. Rules boardrooms. Does awfully well in bedrooms, as well.

Get it:

The Executive Contour is a classic men’s cut. It’s a bit like a Hard Part Pompadour, but without the hard part and with considerably more length on the sides and back, so you can’t see scalp. Consider starting with a clipper guard of four. You can always cut it closer after that. The Executive Contour works with or without a hard part, depending on how structured you want it to appear.

Build it:

1. Scrub a towel over your hair, leaving it only slightly damp.

2. Use a comb to create a smart part, straight back from your hairline to your crown.

3. Blow the whole mess dry, maintaining the parting, using a Vent type brush to add a bit of a natural wave. 

4. When everything’s dry, smooth Reuzel Green Pomade evenly through your hair.

5. Comb The Executive Contour into place.

6. Use your fingers to create a natural curl in the bangs, laying it back against the hair on top. After all, there isn’t a single titan of industry who isn’t a bit of a rascal when he needs to be.

The Junior Contour

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

Somewhere along the way, every l’il rascal starts to transform into a proper scumbag. This isn’t just a cut, it’s a rite of passage.

Get it:

Have the young gentleman tell his barber he wants his hair short on the back and sides, but rather long and thick up top. The intent is to create a natural side part.

Build it:

1. Shampoo with REUZEL 3-in-1 Men’s Tea Tree Shampoo. (Because lord knows boys don’t stand still long enough for proper conditioning.)

2. Thoroughly towel-dry the hair.

3. Use a comb to create a side part, and then blowdry the hair on top brushing up and back as you do.

4. Scoop out a liberal amount of Reuzel Red Pomade and smooth it through the hair, working from crown to tips.

5. Now comb the whole mop back into place, sweeping the long bangs up and back over the opposite side of the head.

6. Snap a photo now, dad. Because if your lad’s anything like ours, he won’t be returning quite as clean as he left.

The Scumbag Boogie

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

Calling Jay Gatsby. This is the look that flattened women’s hearts during America’s Golden Age.

Get it:

The Scumbag Boogie is in every Reuzel barber’s wheelhouse. If you find yourself elsewhere, ask for a high fade and a relatively high side part. Tell them you want enough left up top to give your hair a bit of a wave.

Build it:

1. After a nice shower and daily shampoo, dry your hair with a towel. Use a comb to establish a clean part.

2. Blow dry hair with a vent brush, without lifting or creating excessive volume. (In fact, if you aren’t headed out for a bit, you can let the hair dry on its own.)

3. Once dry, apply a liberal amount of Reuzel Blue Pomade for a firm hold, smoothing it from the part sideways. Or use Reuzel Red Pomade for a hold that’ll loosen up after a solid hour of jitterbugging, if you know what we mean.

4. Comb hair into place, letting the teeth flow naturally with the wave of your hair. Let the good times roll.

The Vanguard Hairstyle

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

The full-bore slick back. No part. No fuss. Nothing standing between your face and the world about to be laid at your feet.

Get it:

A Reuzel-certified shop will clock just what The Vanguard is. But a lesser stylist, who knows? So tell them you want to comb your hair straight back, without any obvious blending or undercut.

Build it:

1. Apply a generous palm of REUZEL Grooming Tonic to clean, towel dried hair. 

2. Run a comb through your hair to make sure the tonic is spread evenly.

3. For an extra-straight look, blow dry while directing hair backward with a 7-9 row Denman type brush. If you’d rather keep just a bit of natural wave, use a vent brush instead.

4. Once that’s done, you’ll want to put in some product to lock The Vanguard down. Use Reuzel Blue Pomade, and let the pork do the work.

5. Comb everything backwards evenly, so there’s no visible part.

6. If you’d like a bit of height, use a hair pick to lift up the front and top. But in general, keep it smoothed back from your face. After all, the whole point of The Vanguard is looking like you got nothing to hide. Even if you do.

The Low Fade Pompadour

Popular Men Hairstyle

Know it:

Keep it low, buddy. Get down to the scalp around the neck and ears. Then a speedy blend to create weight on the sides and back.

Get it:

Ask your stylist for a Low Fade Pompadour. The most common question you’ll get is, “How low do you want to go?” The proper reply is that you want the fade to blend one inch above your ears.

Build it:

1. Apply Reuzel Grooming Tonic to clean, towel dried hair. This’ll make your hair easier to control, and smell very nice indeed.

2. Use a comb to create a part, pushing the hair over and back.

3. Blow your hair dry, while using a 7-9 row Denman- type brush to direct your hair. The sides go backwards. The front goes up and then back over your crown.

4. When you’re done drying, scoop out a knuckle’s worth of Reuzel Blue Pomade for a clean, high shine. Or use Reuzel Pink Pomade, which will thicken your hair into pure grease.

5. Rub the product between your palms and smooth it through the hair, petting yourself like a good doggie from front to back, away from the part.

6. Comb everything into place, lifting your bangs up and back if you want even more height up front.

The Textured Long Crop

Popular Men Hairstyle

KNOW IT:

The textured long crop is a classic shorter at the sides and back with a bit of extra length on top haircut. Enough hair on the sides and back to cover the scalp and just enough length on top to show lift and texture. 

GET IT:

Tell your barber or stylist you just saw Steve McQueen in the movie “The Great Escape” and you’ve been inspired but you want the top a bit more texturized.  If they don’t know what you’re talking about, show ’em this picture.

BUILD IT:

Clean the textured crop haircut with one of our shampoos and condition the hair. Towel dry the hair and spritz on a small amount of Reuzel Spray Grooming Tonic. Comb the hair into place on the sides and back and tussle the top with your fingers. Allow to dry naturally.

For a strong textured top – use a dab of Reuzel Extreme Hold Matte Pomade and rub it into the longer hair on top until happy with the look. For a softer more natural look – use Reuzel Matte Styling Paste instead.
