An easy-to-manage cut for the modern, busy guy, it requires very little styling to keep it looking sharp. Detailed clipper work in the back and sides gives it a clean and sharp look. Then short layers on top are created with a clipper-over-comb technique, and expertly blended in for a smooth transition. A strong neckline is carved with the neck trimmer to finish the look. To make your neck line look strong and thick ask for a square neckline to create a strong broad outline. Or for a more slender-looking neck, opt for a round neckline.
The pompadour is a hairstyle named after Madame de Pompadour. She was the mistress of King Louis XV of France in the 1700s. However, most people today refer to the pompadour as a men’s short hairstyle with the hair back and extra volume on the top. The modern version of the pomp is considered a classic throwback and was made popular by Elvis Presley. This vintage style exudes class and masculinity. While this cut and style has the same general look, there are still a variety of ways to cut and wear this style to fit both your hair texture and your personality.
