Get a Haircut, Give a Little Hope
October 28th, 2009 admin
Flipping through some old barbershop photos today, I came across a shot of an old client of mine who had the best head of hair I’ve ever seen on a human. Christopher’s hair was incredible — thick, black, and shiny. His shoulder-length mop was the kind of hair men hated him for and women could only wish they had. One day, he came in and asked for a buzzcut. “Nope. Not going to do it. Not ever. Forget it.” That was my reply. As much as I love doing a radical change on a client, I really could not bring myself to cutting off that perfect head of hair. We went through this routine a few times until one day he brought in a photo of a little bald …

Ive asked my parents multiple times if my hair line is receding. They say its not and i also get them to look at the top area of my head. It has got thinner i can tell. My...
Today I decided to stop and get my first post-surgery hair cut. I go to the same place every time, but the same person doesn’t necessarily cut my hair. This time I had a new stylist that I hadn’t seen before. I warned her that I had a scar and wanted to be sure that the scar was not visible after the cut. I had asked if she had any previous...
Just caught the season premiere of Million Dollar Listing on Bravo TV. During the episode, realtor Josh Flagg states that he wants his look to reflect this more conservative time, so he gets a recession ready buzzcut… at Jose Eber Salon in Beverly Hills! Too bad he didn’t check out my article on how to choose either a barber or stylist...
I’ve been a fan of House on Fox for a number of years now, but I’ve never been a big fan of actor Jesse Spencer’s shaggy mane. While watching the show a few nights ago, I noticed he’s now sporting a much shorter haircut which really opens up his face. His previous shaggy cut, in my opinion, never really framed his face...
I was flipping through a magazine this morning and came across an image of actor Nicholas Hoult (from the movie A Single Man and thought the haircut he’s sporting recently compliments his face incredibly well. One of his past hairstyles was a longish shag haircut that, I think, made him look more boyish and hid his face. The new look is...
Do my eyes deceive? Is this actually Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz with a buzzcut and no guyliner? Handsome guy without all the styling don’t you think? Not sure what prompted the change, on Wentz’ blog on October 5th, he declared, “this is the death of the Emo Swoosh.” May it rest in peace. Photo © Bryan Bedder | Getty...
Not long ago, I wrote an article on five signs it’s time to fire your barber or stylist . Today, after a batch of particularly difficult clients, I’ve decided to write a followup piece listing the five signs its time to fire your client . The article is really aimed at those who stand behind the chair, but it may also be a good read for...
Dr. Rassman I have an odd question for you. I plan to have a hair transplant with you in the near future. Playing devils advocate here, let’s say that hair cloning is a viable option in five years and the demand would be great. Would having a prior surgery with you give me an advantage of getting this procedure done sooner? (i.e. cutting in...
Several years ago, a guy came in with relatively long hair and asked me to cut it off, military style. At his request, I skinned him down to white walls. “So, whatcha doin’ tonite?” I asked him as I was finishing him up. “Getting married,” was his reply (insert needle scratching off the record sound effect here)....
Doctor, I am turning 23 years old in May. I have noticed that I have been thinning on the back of my head around the vertex. The thinning seemed to have started this summer. After slightly noticing it, I asked my barber if he had noticed anything. He said that it has been relatively the same for the past 5 years that he has been cutting my hair....
