Rock ‘N’ Roll Hairstyles
2007-09-21 17:19:00
Dost.pk has an article about different "Rock Star's" haircuts and how to get them. Chester made it on there with his "Clipper Cut?" lol. I found it amusing so here it is...Some of the boldest statements are the simplest ones, and donning a clipper cut can be just such a declaration. Short all over with a bit of length left on top, the clipper cut comes across as slightly grungy, yet slightly sophisticated. This haircut effectively transcends the boundaries that exist between office life and night life. Need proof? Turn to Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington. While his stylishly clipped hair hints at a more focused, serious demeanor, it also lends an air of punk to his rock ‘n’ roll persona. Provide backup to your dangerous alter-ego by sporting a closely cropped clipper cut — just leave a bit of length on top for styling purposes.Riff this style: Though almost any guy can rock it, a clipper cut works especially well for guys grinding it out in more buttoned-up office environme...
