Every day there are all sorts of haircuts walking out of our doors, some simple everyday cuts, and some a bit more dapper, and some where our clients let us pull out all the stops. For those who want to know what we REALLY do here.
The Legend: Portland Blues
The Barber: Tyler
The Story:
This fine fellow and his wee towheaded moppet were quite the pair. Little dude didn’t get a cut that day, but dad had more than enough hair for both of them.
The style he came in asking for was the good old Arthur Shelby from Peaky Blinders. Shelby-ish, at least, he wasn’t looking to go quite that extreme.
Keeping most of the length on top and using his extremely defined natural part, we gave him plenty of long and plenty of short, easily slicked with some green Reuzel Grease.
The beard didn’t need too much work, but the lighter growth toward the top of the cheeks lent itself particularly well to a nautical style, with its square shape, lean cheeks, and full but not bulky mustache.
A lot of fantastic cuts walk out of this shop, but most of the time we are on to the next client before we have a chance to take photos.
So, to actually capture these great styles (with decent lighting), we have started a roster of hair models. None are “models” for sure (although some have been a curiously Pavlovian effect on our lady followers), these Zoolanders are pulled from our existing clients.
Dastardly Dapper
