How to Cut Short Hair on Men

Summary: A person's hair says a lot about who they are and where they fit in the cultures and subcultures of human society. We human beings are the only species on planet Earth that cut and style their hair to symbolize something, whether it's personality, religious conviction, tradition, social status, membership in a group, or self-expression. Hair styles have zip codes, gender boundaries, proper names, and life cycles. We make value judgements about people based on the way they style their hair.

Whether we like it or not, if we hold down a job or interact with other people on a semi-regular basis, most of us will need to do something with our hair every day. Some people respond to this expectation by just cutting all of it off. Others ignore the social norm completely at the expense of stigma and ridicule.

Instead of taking either of those routes, get some free haircut tips and techniques in this free video lesson, including short haircut styles and ideas for guys with curly hair, like a layered style. Also learn how to use a razor or thinning shears to add texture to the cut, and how to finish it off with styling gel or mousse.
