I like the feathered kinda look from the 80's personally, which goes with my somewhat wavey hair (at least when it's long; short it's actually kinda curly) since it naturally feathers out without much effort.
Really don't do much. I just don't cut it (it's been over a decade since I even went to a barber). Keep it clean, conditioned and I can just brush and comb out any tangles and help the feathering out and look like I belong in A Flock of Seagulls.
I tried to look up what you're describing, but couldn't get any kind of consistent result. Have you got some kind of picture or famous person with the style you're talking about? Thanks.
Like... Uncle Jesse from Full House or Mel Gibson in the first couple of Lethal Weapon movies.
I like that look. It's like a feathery mullet with sideburns.
Also Kurt Russell in escape from New York is a classic cut
I’ve also got wavy hair and tend to let it grow out to my shoulders, because it annoys me past that length, then cut it short and start over. What seems to get the best results for me passing is letting my hair get slightly messy so that it doesn’t look ‘finished’ the way people expect a woman’s hair to look. I usually just use a wide tooth comb and let my hair air dry after showering so that it forms messy ringlets, which I think people associate more with rock/punk/alt male looks than female.
Honestly not sure exactly what people are responding to when I do my hair that way, it just works for me. 🤷♂️ YMMV depending on locality and personal face shape.
The classic rule of ponytails is that if it's tied low on the head, down by the nape of the neck, it's masculine, while if it's tied on the top of the head it's feminine. Don't know why, but that makes for a fairly easy and forgiving default — anything at least shoulder length can be tied in a ponytail.
Some character examples:
Tangerine, Bullet Train
Bodhi, Point Break
Choco, Domino
Amado, Narcos:Mexico
Duncan Idaho, Dune
Lots of long-haired men in these:
Troy
Pirates of the Caribbean
Almost Famous

A fucking mullet yo!!
Rock a mullet and own it, nothing more manly! 😁
Ahhh, the wonderous mullet. It's definitely at the top of my list.
I had a mullet maybe two or so years ago. Got they/them'd noticably more with it so I cut it all off. I know that the style is also popular among lesbians. Is there a difference in the type of mullet that men get vs women?
