The Modern Man - Fashion & Hair Isn't Just for the Ladies

By Coral Pleas

Usually it's women who wear the most exciting styles, but lately it is the men that are making the statement. From dreadlocks to highlights, men are starting to make bolder moves with their hairstyles.

Trends for men
Fashion week isn't just for the ladies. We found Avant Garde men's look with some fun pompadours from Amy Farid from Bumble and Bumble. They were also wearing clean cut "Clark Kent/Superman" and gelling bobs for a sleek handsome look.

Some other trends found on Stars:
Musician Pete Wentz is wearing a great rock and roll short style. For medium legnths we have Ashton Kutcher where the hair naturally falls and no blow dryer is necessary. We also have our shaggy chic look with Johnny Depp: casual, cool and natural. We are also seeing the short buzzed look with Justin Timberlake, and he wears it well. You need to have a good head shape and a great face to get away with this look, not everyone can wear this style. The younger urban guys want trendier looks from skater styles to dreads. Stylists all agree that longer looks are coming back, how long really depends on the age.

After the Metro sexual era most men hated the term, we now have a wide variety of men from every background flexing their spending muscle in salons across the country.

By Sam Bonner

Style icon Victoria Beckham is up to her old tricks. Always keeping us on our toes, she has transformed herself yet again. After last years posh bob craze, the former spice girl has cropped her locks into a chic pixie cut. Much in the style of Mia Farrow, this short textured cut shows off the delicate features. The choppy fringe and soft textures around the ears and neck keep this look Feminine.
