Trends in facial hair

The neo goatee
The neo goatee
Another French Beard clone! This is not recommended for a day at the office - try it out while you're on vacation or if you're going for a more rough and tough look. Basically the goatee is the same as it used to be (with or without the patch of hair right underneath the bottom lip), only it has longer sideburns that morph into what's known as a semi-"chinstrap." This look is often seen in western athletes and rappers. Those familiar with western rappers, may recall Omarion as a case-in-study for this type of look.

Movies / Actors that sparked off trends:

Dev Anand's 'puff' was aped by many men in the yesteryears.

The pencil line moustache of funny man Johnny Walker was a trendsetter.

Rajesh Khanna's long hair in Apna Desh was aped by many a young man then. Years later you had Hrithik Roshan, Suniel Shetty, Upen Patel, Angad Bedi with their tresses falling over their shoulders.

Amitabh Bachchan's hairstyle in the 70's was aped, copied and recognised not just in India, but globally. If you don't believe me, ask your dad! Amitabh Bachchan has been one of the very few personalities whose style and fan following has not deteriorated over the years. Till date, people keep a French Beard just because Mr. Bachchan keeps it.

The one-day stubble on Anil Kapoor's face became his signature and was copied by a lot of film followers.

And not to forget Viond Khanna's long side burns. In fact side burns became such a craze that even though villain Ranjeet sported them to give him a mean look, one noticed many men growing side burns.

Aamir Khan's name is right up there when it comes to setting trends. Be it cycles in Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar, the spiked look in Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahi, his big rings in Ghulam and his goatee in Dil Chahta Hai - all of them have been aped readily. One still sees people with the 'Mangal Pandey ' moustache on the roads. And one can't predict what trend his latest release, Rang De Basanti  will spark off.

Salman Khan's Tere Naam hairstyle was one of the biggest trend setting example. The actor has recently shaved all his hair off and is seen sporting a bald pate now. One never knows this too may soon become a rage with his fans.

Sanjay Dutt's pineapple haircut is still a craze.

Akshay Kumar Clean-shaven
While you don't need us to elaborate further on this style, a clean-shaven look is timeless and the most appropriate look for a professional who must maintain a sophisticated image. You can never go wrong with a shaved face. And your lady will surely be more than grateful.

Trends that were...
French beard
Below-the-lip goatee
Chin goatee
Neck-up stubble (Hair on face only, shaven neck)
Chinese moustache
