Cut of the Week / Pompadour

December 21, 2014 By //  by Natalie the Blademaiden Leave a Comment

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 Cut: Pompadour

The Barber: Natalie
The Story:

Quite a few men stress about going grey, but as you will notice in a large amount of the haircuts we post, we think that’s just stupid.

That silver, snow, gunmetal and slate create beautiful streaks and shading, it’s like you’re a living black and white photo. That’s awesome. Embrace that shit.

Get a great haircut (like this classic pomp), maybe grow a badass but neatly groomed beard, and if you’re already a rugged, badass biker, all the better.

This is one of those heads that doesn’t need much work, because it’s pretty much perfect as it is. Tight and square on the sides, neatly tapered neck, only cut the top where it connects to the side, slicked up and back with red Reuzel Pomade for easy height.

The secret of a great beard like this is a light and simple lining with a bit of gentle tapering around the back jawline and neck. Neat but natural is the key.


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.
