The Undercut for Men – Weldon Barber Spokane

Weldon Barber Spokane is always in search of the latest in styling trends to help our clients look sharp and sensible.  In Weldon Barber Spokane’s recent inquiries, we’ve seen the return of another of history’s classic styles.

The beginning of the new millennium has seen a huge movement toward the clean-cut looks from our past.  In a recent post on Weldon Barber Spokane’s blog, we discussed the return of the pompadour.  The style, cut short on the sides with the top styled up and back, is reminiscent of James dean.

Now, in the latest trend of this movement we’re seeing a return of a style closely related to the pompadour that finds its roots in the 1930’s.  Just as with the pompadour, this style is cut short on the sides and long on the top.  However, the cut, coined as an “under-cut” in Sweden, is greased back on the top using a small amount of pomade.  The result is a nostalgic look reminiscent of an era of tailored style that focuses on quality in the fine details. The New York Times has denoted this style as “a go-to haircut not just for Web designers in heritage-brand clothing, but for fashion designers and D.J.’s in the style capitals of Europe.

The trick to successfully pulling off the under-cut is a sharp cut.  It is important to have a quality hair stylist to assure the sharpness that this cut demands and define the short areas of hair verses the long in an appealing way.

Trending in Men’s Style – Contradictions (Weldon Barber Spokane)

Weldon Barber Spokane – As with many other aspects of modern life, current trends in men’s grooming embrace contradiction. More than any other era, men are choosing their style based on their personal preferences rather than donning the standard uniform of their peers.

The 1950’s Clean-Shaven Look – Weldon Barber SpokaneBarber Spokane

No one can deny the amazing success of the Madmen series and the influence it’s had on fashion trends. At Weldon Barber Spokane we’ve experienced a marked increase in men seeking the well-tailored, clean-cut image reminiscent of the 50’s. After all, who can resist the essence of this era that gave birth to the suburb, dark, tailored suits, the “bob”, and pleated, knee length skirts?

This well-groomed trend has shown itself to be attractive to those longing for the simplicity and order of this bygone era.  What’s more, those choosing this image which signified conformity in its day, now express an image of revolt against the modern values of society.

The Unshaven Revolution – Weldon Barber Spokane

In stark contrast, the New York Times has recently acquainted its readers with the contradictory trend they’ve coined as the “whisker rebellion.” (see “Whisker Rebellion”) The New Yorkspokane barber time described pursuers of this latest movement seek freedom from unnecessary restriction; protesting against the rules of society in favor of the more wily values of the mountain man. However, as simplistic as this fashion trend may seem, you may want to consult the professionals at Weldon Barber Spokane to “pull-it-off” properly. After all, incorrectly executed, seekers of this look may appear more reminiscent of the typical couch potato than the Marlboro man!

Aveda Men’s Pure-Formance™ Offered by Weldon Barber Spokane

Visit Weldon Barber Spokane for Aveda Men’s Pure-Formance

Aveda and Weldon Barber Spokane have introduced ShaveCream and Dual Action After Shave, because men are “different by nature.”

YouTube Preview Image

According to Kurt Kueffner, Director of Men’s Business Development for Aveda, “Men’s skin is clinically proven to be different by nature than women’s skin. Men have a weaker skin barrier function, a 25% higher collagen density, a higher rate of moisture evaporation and higher sebum production than women.” Aveda addresses these concerns and has developed formulas specifically geared to meet men’s distinct needs and producing real results.

These products make shaving friendlier – both to a man’s face AND to the environment. Aveda’s Pure-FormanceShaveCream and Dual Action After Shave from Weldon Barber Spokane are more than 97% naturally derived and packed with plant-powered ingredients. The phyto-active blend includes phycosaccharide from seaweed extract, licorice root, sage extract, plai oil and tamanu oil.

In addition, the Aveda Men Pure-Formance™ Shave Cream and Dual Action Aftershave from Weldon Barber Spokane include argan oil, a conditioner that is sourced from a women’s cooperative in South Morocco. So, your purchase helps to preserve the endangered Argan Forest

Weldon Barber Spokane – For Little Boys Too

Barber Spokane for little guys tooHere at Weldon Barber Spokane – 5 Mile we were thrilled to receive this email from a satisfied grandma!

Mom,

You can tell Weldon Barber that we LOVE them!

During my husband’s recent deployment getting my son’s  (he was 4 years old) hair cut was a crisis.  I tried several places and couldn’t find anywhere that didn’t make a stressful situation worse.  When my husband came home he grew is hair out and took our son to the Weldon at 5 Mile.  They were *awesome!*  They gave my husband a great haircut and most importantly took the time to make my son comfortable enough to get a haircut!!  They are my family’s new favorite place…they are classy, patient, family oriented, and have a great waiting area for me!

The Latest Information from Weldon Barber Spokane About Male Pattern Baldness

barber spokaneAre you noticing that your hair is beginning to thin along your hairline or at the top of your head? Then you may very well be suffering from a common condition in men called Androgenetic alopecia, known more commonly as male pattern baldness or male pattern hair loss. Incredible as it sounds, approximately 95% of all hair loss in men is attributed to male pattern baldness. And because myths about this condition abound, Weldon Barber Spokane wants to make sure you have the most up-to-date information on hair loss in men, what causes it, and what you can do about it.

Weldon Barber Spokane Helps You Distinguish Between Male Pattern Baldness and Normal Hair Loss

A Weldon barber will tell you that both men and women lose about 100 hairs every day, due to the fact that hair has a growth phase, a resting phase, and a shedding phase. It’s not unusual, then, to see strands of hair, that are probably in the resting or shedding phase of hair growth, in your comb or brush during your daily hair grooming. On the other hand, if you see a gradual recession of your hairline that looks like an “M,” as well as thinning at the crown of your head, then you may very well be in the beginning stages of male pattern baldness.
