The Men's Guide to Style Hair & Face Ir BEAUTY + SUBSTANCE The Men’s Guide to Style Hair & Face Finding the right hairstyle/facial hair combo is about much more than finding a picture in a magazine, it is a science. The first step to developing a look that works right for you, is understanding the different components and how they all fit together. So let’s start getting handsome! ROUND OBLONG TRIANGLE/ SQUARE DIAMOND We are going to start with the most basic of basics: face shape. This is usually square one in creating the basis for a signature look. Face shape can influence everything from haircut to optimal beard shape, so it’s helpful to have a good understanding of what your shape is considered. Here’s how you find out: 1. Grab a ruler or flexible tape measure (like the kind that tailors use). 2. Forehead: Pull the tape measure from the peak of one eyebrow arch to the peak of the opposite arch. Record that number. 3. Cheekbones: Measure across your upper cheeks, starting and ending at the sharp bump below the outer corner of each eye. 4. Jawline: Measure from the tip of your chin to the point below your ear where your jaw angles upward. Multiply that number by two. 5. Face length: Measure from the center of your hairline to the tip of your chin. Round Round Measurements: Cheekbones and face length have a similar measurement. They are larger than forehead and jawline, which also have a similar measurement. The angle of the jaw is soft. Best haircuts: In general, you want to create the illusion of height, to balance out your shapes natural width. The best way of doing this is to keep things short (think a “1”) on the sides, and gradually fading up into a longer length on the top. If you want maximum height advantage, consider a messy tapered “v-cut” style, also known as the “faux hawk.” If you prefer to keep your locks long, opt for a side, slightly diagonal part. The eye will follow the line of the parting, creating the illusion of a more angular shape. Also, layers are strongly advised for longer hair as they can help to draw the eye downward. Just be sure to start the shortest layer at least slightly below your chin. Best beard shapes: A goatee with connecting mustache, or a closely trimmed short beard with defined edges. Both will create angles on a round face. Credits: Hair: Embassy Artistic Team // Mark Joel Thompson, Keith Greenhill, Michael Clowes, Michael Jennings and Kirsty Gaunt Photography: Vikki Hughes at Vikki Hughes Photography Square Measurements: All measurements are fairly similar. The angle of the jaw is sharp. Best haircuts: Much like the oval face shape for women, yours is the most coveted of all the male face shapes you handsome, angular bastard. You have the freedom to explore the wilds of styling and cuts at your whim; the hair world is your oyster. Everything from bangs to man buns will complement a square face shape, but if you want a 100% safe bet, go for the undercut. Besides being the reigning style of the past three years (thank you, David Beckham), this highly versatile cut can be styled as conservatively or as alternatively as you wish, depending on your circumstances and mood. Best beard shapes: If you would like to soften your jawline a little, opt for a full beard trimmed to a length just beyond your face. If you want to play up your square-ness, keep it short. A strong 5 o’clock shadow will draw the eye straight to your jaw. Photo Credits: Hair: Joe Ribera Photographer: Simon Everiss Makeup: Lianne Clair Oblong Measurements: Face length is largest. Forehead, cheekbones and jawline are similar in size. Best haircuts: Unlike our first two face shapes, this one is all about adding width. Which means you want to take the first few notes we gave you, and do them in reverse. Keep the hair longer on the sides, and consider adding a long, sweeping bang. The diagonal line created by the bang will force the eye to travel outward. If you prefer longer styles (which can look great on an oblong face, when executed properly) definitely opt for a bang and heavy up on your layering. The more you layer, the wider your hair will appear, which in turn, will add width to your face. Best beard shapes: In general, you want to stay away from chin hair, this will draw the eye downward, making your face appear longer. A strong stubble or two day outgrowth can add fullness, to make the face look more balanced Photo Credits: Hair by Jules Togini Triangle/Diamond Measurements: Face length is largest. Then, in descending order: cheekbones, forehead, and smallest is jawline. The chin is pointed. Best Haircuts: Again, we are talking about adding width here, so feel free to steal some notes from our oblong friends, with a few exceptions, bangs being one of them. Diamonds have a narrower forehead than an oblong face shape, which means that a severe, heavy bang can be overwhelming. In general, the best bet is to keep hair up and away from a diamond face. Having too much “hair interaction” can add to the narrow effect. The biggest takeaway for diamond shapes is to keep a focus on volume. A slicked-down Don Draper style will accentuate a shorter forehead, while a little more pomp and circumstance will keep the eye moving upward. Best beard shapes: Your two best bets here are a goatee (either with or without a connecting mustache) or a full beard that goes just beyond your chin. The caveat to both is that you want to make sure that you keep the shape rounded as opposed to pointed. This will mask a pointed chin.

In this shiur we need to apply the principles that we learned in Part 1 to the electric shaver and understand the contemporary psak. A] THE HISTORY OF THE ELECTRIC SHAVER • 1879 - invention of the manual beard-clipping machine, mentioned by poskim at the end of the 19C. • 1898 - patents first filed for an electric razor. • 1903 - invention of the safety razor by Gillette in the US. This was marketed in Europe from 1905. • 1925 - invention of the electric safety razor and the vibro-shave. • 1931 - Jacob Schick created the first electric shaver. This was already referenced in the US poskim by 1932.1 • 1939 - Phillips began to produce the shaver with a round head. 2 • 1980s - Invention of the ‘Lift & Cut’ electric shaver. B] THE HALACHIC BACKGROUND We must briefly review the halachic framework for the mitzvah that we saw in Part 1. :Wbe z ,¬ t P ,­t ,h ºj J , t´«k u o·f Jt«r ,­ t P Up ºE , t´«k 1. zf:yh trehu In Parashat Kedoshim the Torah explicitly prohibits ‘destroying’ the corners of the beard.

  • Review of Topical Therapies for Beard Enhancement
    Review Article Review of Topical Therapies for Beard Enhancement A. ALMURAYSHID* Department of Medicine, College of Medicine, Prince Sattam Bin Abdulaziz University, Alkharj City 11942, Saudi Arabia Almurayshid: Topical therapies for Beard enhancement Beards and facial hair are part of male characters and fascination. Topical therapy for beard enhancement may be desired by some men to improve beard growth and density. A review of all reports on topical treatments for beard enhancement is presented here. Searching the United States National Library of Medicine PubMed, exploring all titles containing beard, facial hair or mustache as of July 22, 2020. A total of 445 articles resulted from the initial search. After reviewing the publications three studies match the aim of the review, two of which were double-blind clinical trials, and one was a case report. Topical 3 % minoxidil, as studied by Ingprasert et al., showed a significant increase in hair count, photographic scoring and patient self-assessment. Saeedi et al. studied the use of 2.5 % testosterone gel for men with thalassemia major and found an increase in terminal hair. Vestita et al. published a case report demonstrating unexpected improvement of beard density for a patient using tretinoin 0.05 % cream. Limited evidence on topical treatments for beard enhancement. Topical minoxidil is an off-label treatment to enhance the beard. Other topical options such as testosterone, tretinoin, of bimatoprost could constitute potential treatment options. Further studies needed to recommend the best topical options for men who desire to enhance their beards. Key words: Beard, facial hair, Minoxidil, Testosterone, Tretinoin, Camouflage, Hair Transplant, Laser The beard and facial hair have been a social expression The results were filtered to find any topical treatment used for men of different cultures.

  • An End to “Long-Haired Freaky People Need Not Apply”?
    “Signs” of the Times: An End to “Long-Haired Freaky People Need Not Apply”? Sean C. Pierce Harbuck Keith & Holmes LLC Coming on the heels of United Parcel Service, Inc.’s seminal case on pregnancy discrimination, Young v. United Parcel Service, Inc., 135 S. Ct. 1338 (2015), the world’s largest package delivery company was recently also ensnared in a religious discrimination claim. UPS agreed to pay $4.9 million and provide other relief to settle a class-action religious discrimination lawsuit filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The suit was resolved with a five-year consent decree entered in Eastern District of New York on December 21, 2018. EEOC v. United Parcel Service, Inc., Civil Action No. 1:15-cv-04141. The EEOC alleged UPS prohibited male employees in supervisory or customer-contact positions, including delivery drivers, from wearing beards or growing their hair below collar length. The EEOC also alleged that UPS failed to hire or promote individuals whose religious practices conflict with its appearance policy and failed to provide religious accommodations to its appearance policy at facilities throughout the U.S. The EEOC further alleged that UPS segregated employees who maintained beards or long hair in accordance with their religious beliefs into non-supervisory, back-of-the- facility positions without customer contact. These claims fell within the EEOC’s animosity to employer inflexibility as to religious “dress and grooming” practices, examples of which include wearing religious clothing or articles (e.g., a Muslim hijab (headscarf), a Sikh turban, or a Christian cross); observing a religious prohibition against wearing certain garments (e.g., a Muslim, Pentecostal Christian, or Orthodox Jewish woman’s practice of not wearing pants or short skirts), or adhering to shaving or hair length observances (e.g., Sikh uncut hair and beard, Rastafarian dreadlocks, or Jewish peyes (sidelocks)).

Elston, MD An otherwise healthy woman in her late 50s with Fitzpatrick skin type II presented to the derma- tology department for a scheduled cosmetic botulinum toxin injection. Her medical history was notable only for periodic nonsurgical cosmetic procedures including botulinum toxin and dermal fillers, and she was not taking any daily systemic medications. Duringcopy the preoperative assess- ment, subtle bilateral and symmetric hypertricho- sis with darker terminal hair formation was noted on the periorbital skin and zygomatic cheek. Uponnot inquiry, the patient admitted to purchas- ing a “special eye drop” from Mexico and using it regularly. After instillation of 2 to 3 drops per eye, she would laterally wipe the resulting excess Dodrops away from the eyes with her hands and then wash her hands. She denied a change in eye color from their natural brown but did report using blue color contact lenses. She denied an increase in hair growth elsewhere including the upper lip, chin, upper chest, forearms, and hands. She denied deepening of her voice, CUTIS acne, or hair thinning.

  • Computer-Generated Photorealistic Hair
    Computer-Generated Photorealistic Hair Alice J. Lin Department of Computer Science, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506, USA [email protected] Abstract This paper presents an efficient method for generating and rendering photorealistic hair in two dimensional pictures. The method consists of three major steps. Simulating an artist drawing is used to design the rough hair shape. A convolution based filter is then used to generate photorealistic hair patches. A refine procedure is finally used to blend the boundaries of the patches with surrounding areas. This method can be used to create all types of photorealistic human hair (head hair, facial hair and body hair). It is also suitable for fur and grass generation. Applications of this method include: hairstyle designing/editing, damaged hair image restoration, human hair animation, virtual makeover of a human, and landscape creation. Keywords hair, realistic hair, hair generation, filtering 1 Introduction Because of the ubiquity of hair in everyday life, the human hair rendering has been an active area for over a decade. It is one of the most unsatisfactory aspects of rendered human images to date. Although there are some methods, which could render 3D hair, these rendering have always been hard. The hair they generated is not realistic appearance of human hair. And also, it is only for virtual human. This paper takes a different approach. It essentially uses image-processing techniques. This method has its own proprietary advantages. First, it greatly reduces the tasks of geometric modeling and of specifying hair color, shadow, specular highlights and varying degrees of transparency. It allows much more complicated models (such as curly hair and facial hair) to be generated and rendered.

  • Symbolisms of Hair and Dreadlocks in the Boboshanti Order of Rastafari
    …The Hairs of Your Head Are All Numbered: Symbolisms of Hair and Dreadlocks in the Boboshanti Order of Rastafari De-Valera N.Y.M. Botchway (PhD) [email protected] Department of History University of Cape Coast Ghana Abstract This article’s readings of Rastafari philosophy and culture through the optic of the Boboshanti (a Rastafari group) in relation to their hair – dreadlocks – tease out the symbolic representations of dreadlocks as connecting social communication, identity, subliminal protest and general resistance to oppression and racial discrimination, particularly among the Black race. By exploring hair symbolisms in connection with dreadlocks and how they shape an Afrocentric philosophical thought and movement for the Boboshanti, the article argues that hair can be historicised and theorised to elucidate the link between the physical and social bodies within the contexts of ideology and identity. Biodata De-Valera N.Y.M. Botchway, Associate Professor of History (Africa and the African Diaspora) at the University of Cape Coast, Ghana, is interested in Black Religious and Cultural Nationalism(s), West Africa, Africans in Dispersion, African Indigenous Knowledge Systems, Sports (Boxing) in Ghana, Children in Popular Culture, World Civilizations, and Regionalism and Integration in Africa.

  • Menopause and Hair Loss
    Menopause and Hair loss Written by Consultant Dermatologist, Dr Sajjad Rajpar Many women will experience concerns with their hair during or after the menopause. This can come as quite a shock and can be deeply worrying because hair is such an important aspect of self­identity. Hair loss may not be obvious to anyone else at first, and convincing others (including relatives and family doctors) that there is a problem can be a hurdle in itself. The signs may be an increasing loss of hair when brushing or in the shower, general thinning, the hair line moving backwards, and dry or brittle hair. The parting may widen, and more scalp may show through the hair, especially when the hair is wet. There can be anxiety with brushing or washing the hair, or even looking in the mirror. Stress from hair loss is worsened by not knowing whether the condition will deteriorate and whether HRT will help or not. It can be confusing trying to make sense of the sea of supplements and tonics on the internet or recommended by trichologists and hairdressers. Who gets hair loss? Some 40% of women will experience hair loss after the menopause. In two thirds of women this will be all over the scalp. For the remainder, the hair loss is over the front or temples only. Hair loss may start during the perimenopause or occur many years after. Why does hair loss occur with the menopause? While a hair follicle is only tiny, it is an extremely complex structure that is still not well understood, especially when it comes to hormonal changes.

  • Hirsutism and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
    Hirsutism and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) A Guide for Patients PATIENT INFORMATION SERIES Published by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine under the direction of the Patient Education Committee and the Publications Committee. No portion herein may be reproduced in any form without written permission. This booklet is in no way intended to replace, dictate or fully define evaluation and treatment by a qualified physician. It is intended solely as an aid for patients seeking general information on issues in reproductive medicine. Copyright © 2016 by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR REPRODUCTIVE MEDICINE Hirsutism and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) A Guide for Patients Revised 2016 A glossary of italicized words is located at the end of this booklet. INTRODUCTION Hirsutism is the excessive growth of facial or body hair on women. Hirsutism can be seen as coarse, dark hair that may appear on the face, chest, abdomen, back, upper arms, or upper legs. Hirsutism is a symptom of medical disorders associated with the hormones called androgens. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), in which the ovaries produce excessive amounts of androgens, is the most common cause of hirsutism and may affect up to 10% of women. Hirsutism is very common and often improves with medical management. Prompt medical attention is important because delaying treatment makes the treatment more difficult and may have long-term health consequences. OVERVIEW OF NORMAL HAIR GROWTH Understanding the process of normal hair growth will help you understand hirsutism. Each hair grows from a follicle deep in your skin. As long as these follicles are not completely destroyed, hair will continue to grow even if the shaft, which is the part of the hair that appears above the skin, is plucked or removed.
