Sam is a man who likes to keep his hair short. However, he is open to different cuts and style techniques that fall in the short hair range. In the movie Terminator Salvation and Clash of the Titans, he wore his hair in a buzz cut style that was created using a #3 guard. The sides and back were tapered slightly.

For the movie Avatar, he had a crew cut in order to stay in the character of a military man. This is a very simple style that requires little to no maintenance until the hair has grown out some. To keep this style for more than a month or so, the hair must be cut fairly often. Photo of Sam Worthington shor formal hairstyle.

More recently, he has been seen with his in a style that has been called short formal. The hair is layered and the ends are razor cut to provide added texture. To vary the style, he can add wax and pull the hair into spikes with his fingers or he can simply let it lie where it will for a slightly messy look. Brushing the hair forward and straight produces a hairstyle that any professional man would be glad to wear to work in his office.

For even more variation, Sam has let his whiskers grow to about three or four days’ growth. He can maintain this level of facial hair using a standard beard trimmer with the right guard.

What Is The Difference Between Hair Wax And Hair Gel?

Today, one has many different options in hair products to help hold different styles in place. Two such products are hair wax and hair gel. However, not everyone is familiar with the different products. Therefore, we shall attempt to answer the question, “What is the difference between hair wax and hair gel?”

Hair wax gives light to medium hold and never gets stiff. The product is widely used to provide a soft, natural hold in hairstyles such as the mussed up “bed head” look.

Unlike Gel and other water based hair products, wax does not dry on the hair. This makes it easy for a man to fix his style by simply running his fingers through the hair. In a few cases, it might become necessary to reapply a small amount of wax for certain styles, but this is rare.

Hair gel produces a stiffer hold, similar to hair spray. One major difference is that hair spray does not leave flakes when it dries in the hair. Most gels are alcohol based. Others are water based. Either way, hair gel dries on the hair, leaving behind dry components that can create flakes in the hair.

Gel lends itself more readily to certain styling methods, such as “scrunching”, a method of enhancing or tightening curls and waves in the hair. There are many different types and levels of gel based on consistency and hold. It can come in a spray or be a very thick gelatinous substance. Different products provide different levels of hold, usually indicated using a number scale with higher numbers being more stiff.

Gel is not designed for use with completely dry hair. It is normally applied to damp, towel dried hair and styled. Some hair styles allow for the use of blow dryer after the gel is applied to the hair. One hazard of using too much gel is the creation of “helmet hair”, where the hair feels stiff or plastic to the touch. There is nothing sexier then being able to run a woman’s fingers through a man’s hair, and not having the man worry whether his helmet hair got messed up. If he had wax in his hair he could later go in the bathroom and “fix it” with no worries.

Given the number of different hair products on the market, it is no wonder some men become confused about which is and what each is used for. Hopefully, we have answered the question, “What is the difference between hair wax and hair gel?” in a manner that makes the differences clear and easy to understand.

How To Use A Straight Razor For Shaving and Cutting Hair

Image of straight razor.
A straight razor.

When it comes to personal grooming, few tools are as versatile or as useful as a straight razor. This tool can be used to get the closest shave possible and/or to cut hair to provide added volume and texture. Of course care must be taken to avoid cutting one’s own throat. There are few men still alive who know how to use a straight razor properly.

The first key to using a straight razor is maintaining its edge. Believe it or not, a slightly dull straight razor is more hazardous than one with a finely honed edge. Care must be taken not to roll the edge after it has been achieved using a leather strop.

There is a specific manner in which the razor should be held. The tips of the index and second fingers should be placed over the shank with the thumb underneath for grip. The ring finger and pinky should rest on the tang, a swooping piece coming off the handle. The blade should be held at approximately a thirty degree angle to the skin when shaving or to the hair when cutting hair.

When shaving, it is important to keep plenty of lubrication on the skin. This means using a high quality shaving soap or shaving cream and reapplying it as needed. If the skin becomes dry or sticky, the odds of getting a serious cut go up drastically.

One should use his free hand to pull the skin being shaved taut. This will provide the smoothest surface for the blade to pass over. Do not use multiple strokes on the same spot as one might with a safety razor. Instead, continue with the shave and come back after reapplying shaving cream. One should always go with the grain of the hair, never against it.

Using a straight razor as a barber’s implement is similar to shaving with one. The biggest difference is that there is no need for shaving cream unless shaving the head. For cutting, the hair should be pulled up from the head. The desired length should be established and the razor brought through the hair at an angle away from the scalp. This will give the hair a layered look that has some body and texture to it.

Knowing how to use a straight razor is a skill that is slowly dying out. It is, however, still the best way to get the closest possible shave and one of the best skills a barber can develop for cutting and styling hair.

Vitamins To Prevent Grey Hair

The importance of vitamins to a person’s health can never be overestimated. This even extends to the person’s hair health. While there are many other reasons to take vitamins if one does not eat a healthy and balanced diet, few people realize they can take vitamins to prevent grey hair.

In general, the best way to get vitamins is in their natural form from our food. There are some vitamins that can affect hair growth and color. Here, we will look at some of these vitamins and the best sources of them.

Pantothenic acid, also known as vitamin b5, is one of the important vitamins that can prevent hair loss and graying. It is commonly found in organ meats, such as liver, eggs, and whole grains.

Vitamin b6 helps the body to produce melanin. Melanin is a protein that gives the hair and skin its color. Production of this protein in a healthy hair follicle produces a colored hair. Lack of melanin produces a grey hair. B6 can also help prevent hair loss. This vitamin comes from the same sources as b5.

Biotin is a nutrient that helps the body produce keratin. Keratin is a protein that is used in the production of hair by the body. Biotin also aids in the prevention of hair turning grey and hair loss. Milk, liver, eggs, rice, and whole grains are foods rich in biotin.

Under ideal conditions, everyone would get all of the vitamins to prevent grey hair as well as the minerals necessary to prevent grey hair, hair loss, and other problems that result from vitamin deficiency. Since conditions are hardly ever ideal, most people need to take some sort of vitamin supplements. It is highly recommended that individuals take a multivitamin that contains all of these vitamins plus others that help to promote good health in general as well as prevent grey hair.

Zac Efron Short Hair: Buzz Cut

Zac Efron is a 23 year old American actor who is best known for his roles in the Disney Channel movie, High School Musical, and the television series, Summerland. He is also known for his long locks of hair, which normally cover his ears and stop just short of the shoulder. Today, things have changed with his hairstyle. Here, we shall take a look at Zac Efron short hair: buzz cut.

Zac has an upcoming role in a movie in which he will play a marine. In order to prepare for this role, he decided to go ahead and get his hair cut to a style close to what he will wear during the filming of that movie. However, he has had long hair for so long that this hair cut has left him missing his hair.

Today, Zac’s hair is very closely cropped on the sides and back. He has left it a little bit longer on top, but it is still so short it stands up on its own without any type of hair products being used. This is one type of haircut that is accepted by military standards for males. It is not as severe as some of the cuts worn by typical marines, however.

One advantage for Zac with this new style is that he does not have to worry about keeping a comb or brush handy to refresh his hairstyle during the course of the day. Even after sleeping on it, the hair maintains its style with no maintenance on his part except an occasional washing.

The Zac Efron buzz cut is a look that many fans will need some time to get used to after seeing him for so long with longer hair. Fortunately, they are not alone. Zac is needing some time to get used to it as well.
