the 1st part will be paid to you before you show me your video.
the 2nd part will be paid after you show me your video.

got this haircut last week but the problem now is i dunno how to style it properly.

the bottom sharp points and behind i can manage.

the sides i can more or less handle (using hands to brush sides to the back).

it's the front, the top and the upper-sides that i'm having real problems with because the result looks like the long curvy rising tail of a rooster spreading it's tail for mating purposes.
knn. Evil or Very Mad

by the way, i'm using Gatsby Moving Rubber hair wax (pink color one).

serious topic, please.

before u sleep right, maybe in advance 1 hour.
u wax ur hair and make it spike, dont care whether nice or not just make it spike, thn go sleep.

next morning u wake up it confirm 60% like the pic u posted, thn u wax it again and use hair dryer to blow it to 1 side, thn use ur hand with wax move it to another side, i have no idea wat i talking abt sorry Laughing

Not claiming to be an expert on hairstyling...but here is a tip i picked up form my stylist friends along the years..

If you have an exact look that you would like to achieve, you will need a precise cut to acheive that look....and for that you will need to visit a hairstylist who is skilled in creating texture/lengths/face structure and understands your hair.

Anyways, from just looking at the picture you provided, if you have wispy curly ends, you will need to blow dry (when hair is damp) str8. Perhaps even use a "leave in straightener" while blow drying....or even get a hairstylist to trim the ends to give it that razor edge look.

I have the same problem you do....blowdrying it straight with a little wax already applied in solves the problem for me. Wink

don't use gatsby

go ICON or chapter 2 and get their wax/clay

then take 1 lump the size of a 5 cent coin, spread it over your palm..

then stroke it on your hair, make it as messy as possible. make sure to apply to every part, repeat the process if needed..

after your hair has all been spiked, take 1 more lump of 5 cent wax/clay then style the hair into the style you want..

and you need a good hairstylist to cut your hair well, not those neighbourhood $10 kind

and to top it up, go dye your hair brown and get your eyebrows plucked

thanks so much, everyone!
anyway, i found a video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKPMz186Zrw&mode=related&search=

it's a quick video showing how to achieve almost the same kind of rugged, spiky look. problem is that the video is too fast and it's been cut at some parts, if you notice.
the guy in the video style until like it's easy as ABC like that.

actually, yesterday (sunday), i spend 2.5 freaking hours in front of the mirror to achieve the look in the picture....and at best, it's 85% similar.....maybe i need more practice...

for those of you guys who know how to style this or already have this kinda hairstyle (or something very similar), the offer is still available.

thanks,
niikar.

by the way, one more thing.
i heard they say after you apply wax already and then use the hairdryer to blow it, what's the purpose?
to make the wax dry? or to make the wax harder? or to make the wax more natural?

also, the hair-dryer is it must turn to the max, or just the lowest? or middle?

thanks a lot,
nikar.

its actually.. wash your hair before styling and use hair dryer to dry it.. so that your hair is 1 strand 1 strand, not bunched or sticked together that type yea?

and read my post above..

and remember to hair spray your hair when you get the desired style
