Mens Style Time Machine

By Contributing Stylists Joey & Gretchen

In honor of Roca Salons first Mens Only Event on Dec 2, 2011 we thought touching up on some mens hair styles this week was appropriate. With hit shows like Boardwalk Empire and Mad Men. Male style has come back with class. No more Faux hawks for 2012! The style is setting back to the 1930's and also 1960's. Different eras but similar styles. Its all about the side part and pushed to it to the side. How to get this style you ask? well its all about the cut first off but product plays a huge part in the styling.




For long hair: Stay away from anything too short on the sides( mullet) or with too rounded a shape (feminine). 


Faded necklines can help guys-with cowlicks in that area better than a mire defined neckline can.  Texturized tops can lay down or look more conservative for the office but look more messy with the addition of the right product.

There is many different products to use depending on the texture and the look your trying to achieve.

Sojourn Sculpting Taffy - Soft texture - apply in wet hair and it will dry soft without that hard gel feel or waxy texture that a pomade will give.

Davines No. 8 for Wizards - Hard Texture - This hard gel will let your damp hair set and create a clean shine classic look thats not moving.

Davines No. 13 Matt Forming Ground - Dry Wax - This matte pomade should be used in dry hair to create that slicked back look or to create texture.

Davines No. 6 Glossy Plasteline - Glossy Wax - This pomade has a high gloss for that real slicked look. You can apply wet and dry.

There are many different products you can use but why I love these products is that you can se them in many different ways so your not using one product for one look. Its exciting to see these styles come back and its perfect timing for a new fresh start in 2012.
