What's up with all dudes having the SS cut these days.

I've considered it because I've got a very thick head of hair. I'm just afraid that, at 35, I've aged out.

Do you guys think 35 is too old for a normal, non-model dude?

I'm 34 and I just got a milder version of that... (shorter top and slighly longer sides). I think it looks good.

Good to hear. Up until this year I've always rocked a Sagan, and I just started buzzing myself for something new, but I think this is a very dashing cut.
 
I have my sides and back of my head cut pretty short. The top is just trimmed. My top doesnt grow much anymore so im trying to hold what i got.

SS Cut looks good though. I dont think I have the skull to pull it off.
 
Thread needs more pics. That hairstyle is hot.

Am I doing it right?

I hope not. I'm 40 and have been cutting my hair like that for about 6 years. :/

But I've been growing it out for the last 6 months. So from one too-young haircut to another.
 
your haircut has to fit your face

This can't be stressed enough.

A lot of people think they are able to pull this haircut off, when it's not the case at all. In that scenario your look screams "you're trying too hard" from a mile of distance.

Having said that, it's fun to try new haircuts since in the worst case, it will grow back.

Personally, I'm not a fan at all of this style.
 
Ive had a side part pretty much all my life. Started cutting the sides really short the last few years and its so much better.

Previous poster is right though- it doesn't work for everyone
 
Man, this thread is like stepping into a parallel universe for me. I'd never even dream to talk about my own haircut like this.
Why? is it taboo in your country/coulture? it can put your manhood in question? emancipate yourself breh, talk to us about your haircut, we won't judge you ;)

He probably lives in Germany, where the negative associations would be far too strong.
 
The hitler youth cut has been in fashion for ages. But in the past few years the sides have gotten shorter and the hair is now more likely to be swept backwards than forwards or 'loose' on top.
 

Is that SS Ralph Fiennes? (edit: ugh I'm stupid... but yeah he looked sharp in that movie)


I might try it if I wouldn't be near the end state of male pattern balding. I guess it would look funny though :P (also I'm German, are we even allowed to???)

So, full buzz, screw your princess-y hair problems :P

(also I don't think it looks good on most guys)
 
The undercut is cool but every freakin young person in NYC has this haircut. Its like back in the day when the guido stuff was cool so everyone wore blowouts and popped their collars.

I still kept my classic bangs. Much easier to stand out with this when every guy in a 4 mile radius has the exact same haircut and shirt from TOPMAN.
 
OP, those in your first post are okay, that's not bad.


what is really aweful is the merger of hipster + metrosexual = Giroud

now that above, is awful
 
My 14 year old nephew opted for this cut now that he went through his Church confirmation. He has blue eyes, blonde hair and is in good shape (plays hockey). Basically a poster boy for Hitler youth.

I have to say it really looks good and I bet he's going to get a lot of attention from young girls.

*Now where the hell is that contact card for my barber, need to find it asap*
 
I had to walk through Lallapoolaza on the way to my office this afternoon. A horde of 18-24 year olds, all with either the undercut hairstyle and a tank top (guys) or exposed midriffs and high-waisted shorts (girls). It might as well have been a uniform.
 
Yeah, there's a good short-medium length to the hair that lets it work. If you go long and floppy it starts looking really dumb.
 
I like this haircut a little shorter on top though too; just brush it over to the side, and you're good. Very low maintenance.
