Celebrate the end of Movember at Peter Marcus

November is coming to a close and moustachioed men all over the country have their razors in hand, ready to shave away the efforts of Movember for a fresh start next month. There’s nothing more satisfying than a clean upper lip after 30 days of itching, scratching and collecting crumbs – but why stop at the ‘tache?  Now’s the perfect time to try out a new look on top of your head as well! But before you pull a Jose Mourinho, put down the clippers, ditch the DIY, and check out our top styles this Christmas…

• Retro: For a 60’s rocker look, try a low number-one fade, with plenty of volume on top. This works best for curly-haired gents, and can be styled by combing forward to accentuate the shape.
• Bowl-cut: Believe it or not, those haircuts you despised as a child are back. Only this time, they’re not done in your mum’s living room. Again, short on the sides and heavy on top – only with minimal layering. Style with straighteners for a truly 80’s look, or use texturising gel for a messy, modern feel.
• Fringe: Sharp at the sides and short on the crown, becoming progressively thicker towards the front, the fringe is set to be the biggest masculine hair trend of 2014. Already seen on the catwalk from multiple designers, the fringe is a versatile style that can be worn to suit your tastes. Slick it back for a vintage quiff, or wear it choppy over your face for an edgier look.
• Side Parting: For those growing out a shorter cut, but still wanting to maintain the clean-cut look, a side parting is key. And with the 20’s trend still going strong, a side part can enhance the Gatsby vibe. Why not try a new colour like blue black or platinum white to really intensify the look?
• Silver Streak: Celebrities from George Lamb to Robbie Williams have embraced the grey. A silver streak through the front of the hair can compliment a quiff and give dark hair a pop of colour.

If any of these styles take your fancy, or if you have some ideas of your own, why not give us a call and celebrate the end of Movember at Peter Marcus? Nothing compliments a freshly shaven chin like a new ‘do up top – and with Christmas approaching, you never know who you might want to impress under the mistletoe!  We’re open on Sundays through the month of December and will be introducing more late nights to fit in as many customers as we can over the festive period. Drop us a line to find out more – you can call us on 0161 834 1422, send us a message using our contact form or visit us at our salon on Peter Street.
