Classic hair, epic beards, perfect shaves, and an all-consuming passion for the craft
Our specialty is finding out what your hair and beard want to do, and cutting them that way with an eye toward the classic looks of yesteryear. This is what we do, and these are our real clients we get to make look this good. Find out how to get in the chair right HERE.
A side part is not a combover. If you aren’t really bald on top and combing hair over to hide it, it is a side part, not a comb over. We had to get that out of the way first.
Otherwise, Contours are by definition side parted styles, but a Pompadour, Gaard, and many other cuts can sport parts. Contours look especially slick, but they can also be higher maintenance than Pompadours and The Gaard. See all the slickest side parted styles of the Realm below.
We must start with some terminology on this one. Contours are your basic (usually) side parted men’s haircuts with some level of tapering, and with the blend area following the contour of the head.
