Emerson Salon – Capitol Hill Seattle

The New York Times has a great article about the surge of men taking time to get their hair just right.

“All of a sudden, a big wave of guys just want to experiment,” said Marguerite Jukes, a stylist at the Bumble and bumble salon in the meatpacking district, where the shagadelic manes of the Broadway cast of “Hair” are faithfully kept up. “No one just wants a trim anymore. There isn’t one particular look: It’s a little bit of everything.” She has even become an expert at getting the look not quite perfect, “so it looks like they cut it themselves in their bathroom.”

Often guys who are after a more extreme look will drop the name of some rocker — Robert Plant, Simon Le Bon, Robert Smith, Anthony Kiedis — as inspiration. But what makes this curious trend even curiouser is how little connection the hair actually has to the moment, the man or the music that spawned it. That guy with the long, brown hair and beard may well have techno on his iPod, and the guy with the dyed blue shag is as likely to be drumming his fingers in time to death metal. (NYTimes)

Hair is kind of like the new dress code, it can get you that job, noticed by the girls & guys and get you into that club or concert. If your looking to experiment or kick your hair up a notch, stop by and visit us.
