You're here because you need a haircut, right? I get it. The process proves unnecessarily hard. And the anxiety involved in switching styles overwhelms even the coolest cat. Although the core styles haven't changed much since the early 20th century, icons aplenty can shift and reshape the status quo with a simple visit to their high-end salon. They'll leave with a gravity-defying haircut you envy, fetching camera-wielding paparazzi along the way.
And don't get me wrong, the captured celeb looks great. No matter the hairdo, it seems they can do no wrong. Publications suddenly proclaim the current moment the era of the upright bob — that's a fake haircut, but indulge me — and you're left wondering, "Why doesn't my hair look like that?" or "How do I even ask for that?" Stop that. Starting points abound and can act as a way forward toward your desired haircut. Using a classic style like a crew cut as the foundation, for example, one can tweak it a little to add edge or skew conservative.
Unless you're forced to abide by rigid grooming regulations – a la the military, although they've since adapted their code to include ponytails, buzzcuts and dreadlocks — there's no sense in limiting what your hair can look like. Minimal research — aka a quick Google search — reveals millions of ways to wear your hair. But look around, men's haircuts aren't that different from person to person, and switching styles isn't rocket science. The good ones stick around and the bad ones are blips.
It's also important to consider length. Some styles take months — if not years, depending on how fast your hair grows — to achieve. Others are quick yet irreversible decisions. Before you go bald or commit to billowing layers, think about it a little more simply. Look at yourself in the mirror; then at your photo reference; yourself in the mirror again; the haircut once more; envision it all over again. Bring the photo with you but be ready to make adjustments, albeit minor.
"A photo reference, whether it be some cuts you've seen (from a celebrity standpoint) or just looks you've seen on social media, can be a really great jumping-off point. At that point, you're not necessarily discussing very strict terms in regards to texture, length or whatever it may be, but it's more so trying to look at that photo, see if it works with that person's personal style and then tailoring something to them that's going to be close. There's no such thing as one-size-fits-all for this," Rob McMillen, co-founder of NYC barbershop Mildred, tells us. He also offers his opinions on how long you should wait between appointments. "If you keep it really short, [you should go] two to three weeks; if you keep something medium length, three to five; and if you have a longer look, maybe it's five to seven or even longer."
That means the haircut your favorite athlete wore last week won't look identical on you — or your friend or your father — and especially so a week or two after it's cut. Tailoring a style to your face shape, aesthetic, activities and schedule requires assistance from a trained barber. First, figure out your face shape. Then, seek out a style you're interested in, find a local barber, book an appointment and get the look you've been yearning for — or something close to it. And bring whichever photo you need.
The buzz cut. Oftentimes donned due to a dare or because of a dye job gone wrong, the style's actually rather appropriate for most guys during the summer months. Free yourself from last season's pompadour and prep for a fall and winter feeling renewed. A #1 buzz is the biggest statement, while a #4 proves thick enough to cover your skull. Tom here (to the left) probably has a #2.

T.J.'s got his YouTube channel going now on the T.J. Sermon Salon YouTube channel. What's up?
You got your your uh, you finally got your ladder back from Buche?
Yes.
You're a f***ing little b***h, bro.
Bro, dude, I had to f***ing cut him off again, bro, because, um, dude, we're kicking it and he was
me and my sauna buddy. He needed me out for sauna all the time and, you know, smoke, go to sauna,
chill, good times. You know what I mean? Good brother, brother time. And we started going to
hit Mitts at Rudy's house in his garage. He has a little gym in his garage. So we'd go hit Mitts
in there and we'd meet up and go head over there. One day, this f***er lost his glasses or he left
them or he just got high and lost them. One of the two. And yeah, he misplaced his s***. And then he's
like, f***ing is like, keeps asking me, like, if I have them, you know what I mean? When someone's
like, you haven't seen them, you haven't seen them, you sure you haven't seen them? I'm like, no, I was like, I was like, look in my car. I was like,
I was like, you can look around. I was like, I don't, I wouldn't f***ing take your glasses. I
have a pair of Oakley's with blue lenses. Like, I have basically the same glasses, but mine are better
because they're metal frames. And then he's like, and then so he tells, he's friends with Nick Warren.
Nick Warren's like, yeah, I don't know what's wrong with that kid. I, I try to help him. I try to set
him on the right path. And he's like, he's like, yeah, he told me he's all, I'm not, I'm not talking
to Nick Warren no more. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not taking his calls because, because I, I think he stole my glasses.
Oh my God. And I was, I got so f***ing livid, dude. When Nick told me this, I just f***ing texted him.
I was like, I was like, you're a f***ing b****. F*** you, bro. I was like, you think I f***ing stole from you?
I was like, dude, f*** you. You just lost the f***ing best friend that God gave you. Like, f*** you, bro.
Yeah, well, I was, and then like, and then like, he's being all shady about it. Like, like, then at the end
of it, after I checked him on it, he just was like, oh, it's all good, bro. I didn't think you did.
And then never, ever text back again. So I was like, f*** you, bro. It's all good. Because then, oh, he jacked me on some sh**.
That's why. You know, he jacked me on a couple of electric, uh, mountain bikes.
I know he jacked me on it. It feels bad. He brought me back this pound of weed from Arizona.
And then he was, he felt like, I guess, I guess, I guess he felt like he paid me off.
Yeah, well, I f***ing tried to help him, too. You don't want to help yourself.
No. Yeah, I even got, I even had a job for him. A good job, too. I don't know. I'd be the lot manager
at Reliable Nissan. That's like f***ing, you don't do f***ing sh**. You just manage the cars. Like,
you just have to, kind of, just keep track of everything. Yeah. Send one car to this area.
Send that to the other.
Hi. Hey, how's it going? Hey, how are you? Good, how are you? Good. We have Kelly here. Okay.
You're like me, still rocking the shorts, bro. As long as you can.
And then, it's like, then you finally, like, I try to wear the sandals as long as I can.
My slides are, like, as long as I can. And then, finally, they come to a point where it's like,
all right, people, I was just going to wear my Uggs.
Huh? Finalized or not? Um, no, but I, for sure, got a deal. Yeah.
Well, they, they, they, they, uh, pushed it back. They're gonna push it. I mean,
I figured they were too. They were, they, they didn't have enough planning. They didn't plan
enough. I don't know what kind of, they kind of played it off like they had some problems in New
Mexico, but I know that they just didn't plan correctly. They don't know what, and they don't
know what they want to do with me, if they want to have me fight Perry, if they want to have me
fight just a regular guy. I don't know what they want to do. They're going to fight, though,
but right now, I need the hot yoga healing, bro. I got to get into yoga mode. Yeah,
you don't have to. I'm too busy. You don't need to, man. You don't need to, man. You just wanted
to do it for fun, man. I was still signing the top ring, and then they kept trying to make,
last minute, too. If I'm on a contract with you guys, I at least came six weeks,
yeah, two weeks. Yeah, they kept me about a year on straight killers, too. Yeah,
but I don't know. I'm the card, right before the main, main card of Canelo cards.
Yeah, killers. We're still killers, but we're not young. You, yeah, you do good in UKFC, too,
though, because it's, it's, it's different. It's a different sport, and it's shorter rounds,
and like, it's easy, though. You just got to be able to learn defense a little more,
you know. Can't be just so offensive-minded. You got to, you got to learn how to hit, too,
like, without wraps, you know. I've been doing that for two years. I showed him the protocols,
the planks that I do, knuckle planks, strength on the wrist. Still, Michael,
I'm gonna do the, the rice. Yeah, I'm actually gonna have Mama Dee do some training with me.
I like Mama Dee. The pool. She's good at the pool, kind of stuff. Brutal. I like Mama Dee.
But you know how it is. It's hard being a fighter when you have kids, man. It's like,
you got to, like, schedule. Unless you have help, then, then you can do it.
Like, right now, my girl, she's helping me a lot, too.
You got to have someone that supports you the right way. Yeah, uh, Blue Care was trying to
get unemployment and stuff off of us. Yeah, we were, because of the whole COVID thing,
yeah, but we were still considered essential. So, you know, no one got fired, no one got laid
off. They just didn't want to come. Well, you quit. You didn't quit. You're not getting
unemployment. You're tripping. That makes sense. You're just trying to scale the system. Yeah,
that's all you are. You're just trying to scale the system. Didn't the government stop giving
that money? I have no idea. I never heard any. Blue Care worked, reworked all the way through it.
That's what, uh, my friend that, that manages the Reliable News Fund,
yeah, he's like, I can't get no one to work because they'd rather just get that
to stay up and take their check. Crazy. People don't want to work now.
Hey, Kelly, is it, is your name Kelly or is it your son? Oh, okay, good. Yeah, I know,
he's, he'll be up. And then, D, I'm squeezing you in right after Kelly. That's fine.
I want to change the game, but this one's a summer haircut. What'd you do the top two?
But it's a, you gotta come twice a week.
Of course, of course. Yeah. It's a fun haircut though, you know why?
You don't have to comb your hair. Wake out of bed, will you jump out of bed?
Such a good barber like you, Dad, I don't think I'll ever grow it out of you. I was gonna ask,
how did Jason find you? His dad made this appointment and asked me to bring him, and I'm
like, you guys are like a hidden gem. Yeah, it's, it, you know what it is? It's the, the salon that's
named, because it has the first, like, men's salon. It's probably the only one really men's
yeah.
How old are you?
He's been cutting my hair since I was 12 years old.
He's changed it the last time you took him to, that's why he looks the way he does. He doesn't
want to get a haircut because he's scared they're gonna, they're gonna tie. I got you one. Yeah,
Mom did something right.
And I truly, I built this place because of that. I put them on everything,
it was really because of all the shitty haircuts I got as a kid.
I was like, I gotta have something that, you know, where these kids can go and actually care.
We should be buying that gym next door though.
Unless you guys already have one.
Hey, what do you know about, uh, is it Ados? Like, Gracie? Oh, there's a, there's a different
Gracie in town now? Oh no, it's not Gracie, it's Ados or something like that.
There's a new gym in town? No, they've come, they're trying to get them over here.
A different type of, what are you talking about? It's like Gracie,
but it's a different Brazilian.
They're gonna try to come to Albuquerque?
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know the real story, man, you know.
I know, but no, but, but no one knows the real story. I, I don't know. Yeah, they dropped it,
but when, when there's a video of you, you know, then that's kind of like.
I don't know, I don't know the inside to the, to the, uh, Gracie.
My cousin, my cousin Mike Sanchez is training there and, uh, he said that, that everybody over
there is all sensitive about it, like don't talk about it, like it's a, like they're all hurt,
their feelings are all hurt about it, and then like.
Yeah, tell me, I remember the name. Oh, yeah, let me get a pic with little man.
Oh, look at this little chap here, right here.
