Since you and at least one other guy here seems to know things about hair, I have a question. :D

Do you find that people who go to get their hair cut actually know the number system thing (like how you said "3 or 4 blade")? Because I've been to barbers that were like "What number do you want for the length?" and my only response is "... idk dude." Maybe its just me thats dumb but I cant imagine too many would really know wtf they're talking about.


I don't know that much but I have a similar hairstyle except i keep the side/back shorter/buzzed a bit more but I ask for a "2 or 3 blade on the sides and back, and scissors on the top down to about an inch and a half or so" and it comes out to the same result, since that picture looks like its not like he got it freshly cut, i'd say the sides/back are a 3 or 4, but thats with a electric razor, for all i know brad pitt gets his softer look on the sides because his gosu stylist uses scissors, but at least you'll get a similar style the way I said it.

Also, every stylist should know the numbers, a 0 is like all the way down, 1 would be like super short but still visible, 2 means its like about a quarter inch maybe, but very short buzz still, etc.


Edit: Seems liek you got your cut, worst comes to worst you can try again in a month and a half lol, thats how it goes. Bringing in a picture or magazine isn't a bad idea, they're used to it so try that next time if you like.

And why the hell is your blog rated so low? It's one of the best ones I've read to be very honest.

trolls in my opinion.

Tell him you want a crew cut, short, but something you can run your hand through.

I think a picture is in order (of yourself after the haircut).
Let us know how it turns out!

It's a must! Don't post another Brad Pitt pic, I don't find him that attractive!

Tip, get a woman to get your haircut. Use scissors, never blades.

As an Asian, posting anything other than a progamer picture for hairstyle advice is blasphemy.

Just saying.

Short, about inch-and-a-half. That's what I'd say, anyhow. Although you might want to ask for 2 inches first, then have him cut it down further if you feel it's a bit too long.

What's kinda dependa on you though, is the sideburns the model is showing, as well as the direction your hair grows. This guy's got a sidecut and moderate sideburns, and if you haven't got good beard growth yet or got a different kind of hair growth, then you're simply screwed.

How would I go about describing this kind of haircut to a barber (not that it's like rocket science but I don't know )

Trust me man, it isnt the hair that is making this photo awesome, its the guy sporting it.
Aah thats the stuff..
