The slicked back hairstyle for men is certainly popular again right now, however, it’s important to know that it can take some time to craft this style. As an example, you will need a good few inches of hair to be able to keep the weight down when you style the hair by combing back. If the hair is too short, it will simply stand up, whilst thicker hair will prove even more difficult to maintain. If you visit your barber once or twice a month over the course of 6 months, they can ensure you get neat and tidy sides without reducing the length of your hair on top. They can also thin your hair so it’s easy to style, but don’t go into the barber one day expecting to get this look in a flash. It takes time for the hair to grow, and you’ll need to train the hair to fall in place properly.
