not too short, not too long, no highlights or quiffed up bits on the top abd back of head :eek: :D

I think the funniest thing are people who think the mullet is a good look. Loads of people with a mullet, albeit with layers and a the use of straightening Irons :eek: Dont get it personally :D Most girls dont want a fella who spends more time on his hair than they do. :)

but that more to do wiht the fact that he is fit, he can get away with a red stripe ;) I prefer a fella to have short hair, and by all means work a bit of wax or putty in, but straightening Irons?? No chance - If his hair is long enough for them, its too long IMO :D

Right well then Fellas who hair is too short for using those ones too :D
The fellas in Mcfly have longish/shaggy hair, and it looks ok, but its too much work, and you know fellas, they will inevitably get bored, and look a mess :D

With the party season getting into full swing, what are the lads who care, using to get the winning style?

My hair has gone a bit wild at the moment so I've taken to Loreal Studio Line Party Proof Gel. (http://www.lorealparis.co.uk/minisites/studio/index.asp)

It's like quick set concrete!
It will hold your style though, no matter what the conditions are.
Great for if you're caught in the rain while going from pub to club or just work up a sweat...

[paul_oshea]

i dont need to!!! i have no hair!!LOL.

[Green Tribe]

i dont need to!!! i have no hair!!LOL.

I've actually gone back to basics Peadar. Was a devotee of V05 Fibre Putty but thats out now, been using basic Brylcreem Gel for a few months now until I find a new product I like. Tried Matt Clay and was impressed, its ok for goin out but its no good for the long slog that is a days work. I think Bedhead (endorsed by Robbie Doyle) is probably the best out there.

I was using Fudge over in England but it doesn't suit my needs now and I find it very hard to get in Ireland. It's not great for an all day at work then straight to the bar session though.

The Party Proof stuff will last all day and night.

What's the party style this year?
I'm out of the loop a bit since I moved home.

[Green Tribe]

i still didnt have any then either!!!

do you wax??:D

have ya still not went through puberty? :eek: I stopped waxing my chest! :D

Was a devotee of bryllcream putty, it went missing from the market and then returned in a new form.. the new one gives me a rash and is real sticky so i threw 2 tubs out which i bought for my trip to boston!! Over here i bought fx speicial affects holding cream and now i know how these crazy yanks get their hair to look fluffy yet in perfect shape! My girlfriend is laughing at me now because foot.ie deals with saccer (she a yank) and hair gel, my two favorite things!:o

Good man Peadar. Hope you had a productive festive season! Myself and The Jamaican PM rang in the new year in style;) . Saw that Proof Gel product in Boots in Dundrum before xmas alright but was afraid to risk it! Looks like your Joe Gamble paid off though! This Vo5 putty is great for a night out but not for regular use. It simply cannot be good for the hair. Tresemme putty is a slightly better one 'used by professionals' as it says on the tin! I think Don Vito is right when he says Bedhead is the best on the market- Bedhead manipulator is one that springs to mind.
On a personal note, I reckon i've only a couple of years left to compete at the top level. By then I'll be a Graham Kavanagh lookalike. I know Kav is still playing in the premiership but I certainly don't expect to be.

Jakers, you're writing yourself off early.
I've a touch of the salt & pepper now myself and many chicks like it.

With regard to the hair products, I can't get Fudge (http://www.fudge.com/fudge/main/index.php) over here so I'll have to check out the Bedhead.

[Don Vito]

Any updates on the hair products in the last few years lads? Thankfully I still have a resonable head of hair and have yet to commence going grey. Still on the V05 Fibre Putty (a brief flirtation with Bedhead in late 2006 aside). Been using the Fibre Putty since the historic away trip to Paris in October 2004 and have yet to encounter a product that does as good a job for such a reasonable price.

Brylcream makes my eldest son sneeze.

find the american crew fibre is excellant, i have incredibly thick hair and it was impossible to do anything different with it until i found this stuff, its a bit pricey mind

[noby]

...#1 blade

Four and a bit years on I have retired the #1 blade. I now use Dax short'n'neat. Use it sparingly if you want to avoid the greasy look.


Who keeps resurrecting these old threads?

Like yourself Don, I've stayed loyal to the VO5 Fibre Putty. However, unlike yourself I've aquired plenty of grey hairs since then! Have been using the putty since September 2004 and I'd be lost without it now. I even managed to pick up a small jar early last year which is useful for away trips. How did you find the Bedhead??

I like your style hula4. I am also an American crew fan. The one I use is one with the light brown lid - American Crew Pomade "For Hold and Shine". I usually purchase it in Knights, Dundrum and it costs 12 euros. Costly you might say but you can't put a price on a high success rate. It is essentially a soft moulding wax which washes out easily and doesnt build up. This is an important feature of any hair product in my opnion. While I must confess I do encounter problems with it's 'holding' quality in nightclubs from time to time and find myself visiting our african friends in the restrooms for a rescue brylcream top up or the like, all in all this is a quality product which I would recommend to those of us blessed with thick hair.
Like Don Vita and The Jamaican P.M., the latter reluctantly introducing the product to us in January 2005, I used Fibre Putty for almost two years. Despite considerable success, I grew tired of it's hard sticky texture, it's inability to provide that darkened look and never really mastered the application process, truth be told.

Are there many users out there using Just for Men? Would you recommend it or does it cause long term damage? Feedback appreciated.

No blade followed by Gillette fusion . Simple hair care .:cool:

havent gone near the just for men dillo, but id be inclined to go grey gracefully (which i have to started to do incidentally)

the american crew i use is in the brown top with the blue sticker on top, absolutely no issue with holding. i often wake up the next morning and my hair still hasn't moved

the application process was shown to me by the barber and if i follow that i manage to get my hair the way i want it it looks a bit fairer than normal which i like and its not rock hard to touch

[SkStu]

you guys all sound just faaaaabulous!

modern man and all that stu

Welcome back Green Hen.

From what I recall, that bed head seemed to evaporate! Surely Don and Dillo wouldn't sneak into your room and use it!
