James Bond Hair for the Holidays

Go Bond for the party season! Whether you’re wearing a tuxedo or best Christmas sweater, add dapper sophistitcation with slick James Bond hair.

 

Slick hair has been seen everywhere in 2012 – from Mad Men to hipsters to CEOs. The look will still be going strong in 2013, with this slick comb over seen with the spring collections for John Galliano, Dior Homme, Gucci, and Dries Van Noten.

It’s an easy to style look that suits every man. With shorter hair, the look will be close to the head. With longer hair, you can add height or add a quiff (keeping sides tight to emphasize height). This looks great with curly hair too – leave hair natural for a clean cut yet slightly unruly look.

The key for all hair types is product. You want hold and a hint of shine but no wet look (touchable hair is key). For straight hair, try Menscience Matte Hair Styling Pomade. Curly haired gents will benefit from investing in a product like Aveda Brilliant Humectant Pomade. And if you have thick or coarse hair, American Crew Pomade will tame hair into any style.
