One trait shared by almost all men is a desire to look their best when they go out in public. This is true whether they're going out for work or play. One of the features men spend a great deal of time on is getting their hairstyle just right. However, this becomes more difficult for men with thinning hair and a receding hairline. Still, there are some hairstyles for men with a very high hairline.

As a general rule, when a man starts losing his hair and his hairline starts receding, the ideal rule of thumb to follow is that less is more. A man with a high or receding hairline usually looks much better with a short haircut than he would try to grow his hair out to hide his receding hair line.

One of the more common mistakes that men with thinning hair make is trying to hide their receding hairline by growing the hair that remains on top to a longer length and combing it over to cover the thin patches. While this approach may work for a limited time, it soon becomes apparent that it is a comb-over and people start to find the hairstyle amusing.

Thinning hair and receding hairlines are an unfortunate fact of life for many men. It becomes necessary to change the hairstyle one wears as the hairline moves farther up and back. One point to remember when choosing hairstyles for men with very high hairlines is that keeping the hair shorter is often more attractive than trying to grow it longer.

While it is okay to increase the reference point as you cut the deeper layers, you will create an even more pronounces shag haircut.

What's the Lewis Hamilton buzz cut? Motoring enthusiasts and the entire British population hail Lewis Hamilton as one of the best drivers in the world today. He certainly proved this by being the youngest Formula One World Champion, which he won in 2008. Aside from dating lead Pussycat Doll, many fans also idolize the Englishman for his buzz cut.

The buzz cut itself is a pretty straightforward hairstyle. Popular among men, it is a cut where the hair is kept as short as possible, but not entirely shaving them off. Since the electric razor is the easiest tool to achieve the style, it gave the rise to term "buzz cut, " which is the sound a razor makes.

This does not mean, though, that the razor would be the only thing used when doing the cut. Scissors will still be used in order to shorten the hair prior to using the razor. This reduces the chances of the razor getting jammed.

Many of Lewis's motoring fans have even imitated his cut while watching him race in the Formula One cup. The Lewis Hamilton buzz cut distinguishes itself from other skinheads by ensuring an even cut although out.

Rock Star Hairstyles

Elvis Presley hairstyle
Rock star hairstyles are nothing new. They have been around at least since Elvis Presley stepped onto the stage of the Ed Sullivan show way back when. His mussed hair and long sideburns created almost as much of a stir as did his hip gyrations, which were edited out of the footage for being "obscene."

As rock evolved, so did the hairstyles of rock stars. Before the Beatles, every self-respecting rock star imitated Elvis. Then came the album, "Meet the Beatles" and the long-haired look became the obligatory rock star style.

In retrospect, there wasn't anything very radical about the Beatles' so-called "mop-top", but at the time, allowing your hair to completely cover your ears was radical, indeed. Not to be outdone, the Beatles' nearest rivals, the Rolling Stones, grew their hair even longer. That trend continued throughout the sixties and into the seventies until shoulder length hair was eventually considered to be excessively short.


Rod Stewart's rock star hairstyle
Rock star hairstyles continued to evolve. When Rod Stewart went solo, he became as well-known for his hairstyle as he was for his beautiful wife. Later, when he was well into his forties, he commented that one of the prices of fame was the "ridiculous hairstyle" that had become his trademark.


Chester Bennington clipper cut hairstyle
Today, rock star hairstyles have taken a turn that many old rockers may find disturbing. The clipper cut style has been popularized by Linkin Park's Chester Bennington. Short on the sides but with just enough length on top to have a slightly grungy edge, one of the advantages of this style is that you can get it at your local barbershop.

If Chester Bennington is anything to go by, it may be said that the rock star look has devolved in recent years. How can a haircut that you can get at the downtown discount barber shop set you apart as a rock star? After all, rock star hair gave birth to a lucrative new business model, the men's boutique hair salon. Will they now all be going out of business?

Not likely. If there's one thing all rock stars feel obliged to do, it is to set trends. First they distinguish themselves by their music, but their rock star hairstyles come a close second. Ever since Samson made the mistake of letting Delilah cut his hair, men have known that a man's hair style is as important to a man as a woman's is to a woman.
