Senior Member fortune11 Posted August 9, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 9, 2015 Interesting story in GQ ... If what they claim is true and the trend catches on , then it will also have implications on desired hair transplant methodology ( ie. choice of FUT vs FUE) http://www.gq.com/story/jake-gyllenhaal-ewan-mcgregor-kit-harington-beard-hair?mbid=social_twitter From the article ... SAY GOODBYE TO THE DON DRAPER HAIRCUT According to Sposito, he’s seen a steady decline in clients asking for the short back and sides in recent months. “It’s the counterpoint to Mad Men and everything being so clean,” he says. “It’s what we’re calling the midlength trend. It’s contained and has the shape, but guys don’t want to comb their hair any more. The subtle imperfection makes it more masculine.” “What men nowadays is versatility,” continues Losi. “They want to go to work during the week and relax during the weekend, but if you’re hair isn’t long enough it just turns into a mushroom. With this you can do what you want.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FUT #1, ~ 1600 grafts hairline (Ron Shapiro 2004) FUT #2 ~ 2000 grafts frontal third (Ziering 2011) FUT #3 ~ 1900 grafts midscalp (Ron Shapiro early 2015) FUE ~ 1500 grafts frontal third, side scalp, FUT scar repair --300 beard, 1200 scalp (Ron Shapiro, late 2016) http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/185663-recent-fue-dr-ron-shapiro-prior-fut-patient.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member fortune11 Posted August 9, 2015 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 9, 2015 true that , voxman ! I think the short hair styles and shaved look really took off with the fast and furious franchise movies in the early 2000s , 10-15 years is about right , length of time wise, when trends start to change again. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FUT #1, ~ 1600 grafts hairline (Ron Shapiro 2004) FUT #2 ~ 2000 grafts frontal third (Ziering 2011) FUT #3 ~ 1900 grafts midscalp (Ron Shapiro early 2015) FUE ~ 1500 grafts frontal third, side scalp, FUT scar repair --300 beard, 1200 scalp (Ron Shapiro, late 2016) http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/185663-recent-fue-dr-ron-shapiro-prior-fut-patient.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member aaron1234 Posted August 9, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 9, 2015 Cool article. Totally agree that the hipster beards and super clean sides are outdated. Move on gentlemen.

Dr Blake Bloxham Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I did the "undercut" or "short sides, long top" thing from time to time, and always ended up regretting it 10 days later. The problem for me is keeping the sides that short. It's amazing how quickly clean cut sides grow out to an awkward, poofy level! Dr. Blake Bloxham is recommended by the Hair Transplant Network.

Senior Member voxman Posted August 10, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 10, 2015 I firmly believe in a nefarious scheme by the young male fashion industry caused the undercut style. It was their way of telling us MPB guys off. I'm serious. Just look at my face. My Hair Regimen: Lather, Rinse, Repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member fortune11 Posted August 10, 2015 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 10, 2015 Gq is anything but a gossip Hollywood tabloid , that label is more apt for something like the people magazine. I compare it more to how the "preppie" publications were in the decades past . Gq correctly called the nouveau hipster trend a few years back as well. For the record I am not anti fue , I am considering fue for my next transplant. But the fact is , hair styles do play a role even in recipient hair placement decisions, not just the extraction method. In any case, movie actors generally are the leading indicator in fashion situations, I would not be generally dismissive. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FUT #1, ~ 1600 grafts hairline (Ron Shapiro 2004) FUT #2 ~ 2000 grafts frontal third (Ziering 2011) FUT #3 ~ 1900 grafts midscalp (Ron Shapiro early 2015) FUE ~ 1500 grafts frontal third, side scalp, FUT scar repair --300 beard, 1200 scalp (Ron Shapiro, late 2016) http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/185663-recent-fue-dr-ron-shapiro-prior-fut-patient.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
