SELECTING A STYLE YOU ACTUALLY LIKE Seeing yourself after a new haircut should make you feel invigorated. Whether you got a haircut for a birthday, new job, or vacation, there’s no doubt that you should feel cool and confident as soon as you get up from your barber’s chair. However, to get to that point, you need to make sure you’re selecting a style that you’ll actually like. Before coming to a final decision, here are some tips you should consider before selecting your hair...style. Get inspiration from platforms such as Instagram, Pinterest, and TV. Do your homework and go to your barber with an idea of how you want your hair to look. Come with pictures as this is a great way for your barber to get an idea of what’s going through your head. Whether it’s a celebrity, professional athlete, or your buddy from college, going into your haircut appointment with a picture and/or an idea of what you want will lead to the best outcome. During your hairstyle search process, consider not only your face shape, but your body shape as well. Sure, no two faces are the same, but most faces are either oval, long, square, or round. But body shape is drastically different from person to person. Because of this, when you’re looking for inspiration, look for people who have the same body shape as you. Do this and your barber will be better able to balance your body structure with your hairstyle. Consider you body shape when selecting a hairstyle and you’ll be in a much better position for a perfect cut. Once you have a hairstyle idea, we recommend that you hear out your barber’s suggestions, but hold your ground. Remember that barbers are professionals and they can suggest what style will look best on you based on your preferences and lifestyle. But don’t feel obligated to agree. It’s totally fine to stick with what you had in mind, but it never hurts to get input from a second set of eyes, right? Hear you barber out but don’t feel any pressure to take his/her advice. To feel great and to feel like a better you, select a hairstyle you actually like by doing your homework, taking your body shape into consideration, and consulting with your barber.

CARING FOR SHEARS Mugshot Barber Shop Roseville Lincoln Rocklin Granite Bay Sacramento If you are a barber, you know the importance of caring for your tools. It is simply part of the profession. Proper usage, routine maintenance, and sanitation is all part of caring for your tools. Today we will be going over how to properly care for your shears. Properly caring for your shears will lead to a longer tool life and better performance. Follow these guidelines for advice on how ...care for your shears. First and foremost, to make sure your shears last as long as possible do not cut these things with your shears. Do not cut paper, nylon, plastic, or other materials. Shears are designed to cut hair, not things that a pair of scissors are supposed to cut. Do not make this mistake as you will only damage your shears. Yes, shears are designed to cut hair but make sure that you are not cutting hair that has treatment or product in it, such as perm solution or hairspray. Before using your shears on a client, make sure their hair is free from any treatments or products by simply washing/cleaning it out. Caring for your shears also includes performing routine maintenance. Check the tension periodically, specifically, before you use them on a client. Do not just leave your shears laying around. Store them in the closed position in the case. This will prevent the risk of them getting damaged from other tools with sharp blades. Lastly, each week you will want to place a drop of oil on a blade and then close and open the shears several times. This is to keep them sharp and clean. The last thing you should do to keep your shears in the best condition possible is to keep them sanitized. There are many ways to clean your shears. All we ask is that you choose one that works for you and do it on a regular basis. You can use a heated sanitizer for cleaning. You can clean with Clippercide spray. You can use Barbicide by pouring 2oz of Barbicide concentrate into a 32oz cup of cold water, then simply make sure implements and surface stays moist for 10 minutes. Caring for your shears is an essential part of being a great barber. By properly caring for your shears they will last much longer, and they will perform the way you want them to.

All About the Shears Shears are arguably the most important tool for a barber. Choosing the right shears is a lengthy process and understanding how to use them properly can be even more difficult. If you are a barber in training or are just starting off your barbering career, below are some pointers on what you need to know about barbering shears. One size fits all does not apply. All barbers have different sized hands, different hand grips, and different comfort levels so a...ssuming one size fits all would be a rookie mistake. Take time to make sure you are comfortable in the shears you use. Test them before you commit. They should have a natural feel when you use them and they should follow your hands, not the other way around. Using the wrong shears can lead to health issues like discomfort, arm/shoulder pain, and even carpal tunnel syndrome. If there is one piece of advice every new barber should take into consideration when looking at shears, it would be to choose the pair that suits YOU. It is also important to do your research before paying big money for shears. For example, some of the best shears in the market right now are Japanese. Made with Japanese steel, some argue that these are the best. But beware of the websites and businesses that are out to con you. Some companies will print wording on their products like Hitachi Steel which is produced in Japan but made with cheap stainless steel material. To avoid problems like these, do your shear research properly, try them out before buying, and you can always talk to professional and licensed barbers for advice about trusted brands. To wrap up, we will give you our opinion of the best hair cutting shears for barbers. At Mugshot you will find a lot of these brands and styles so if you are interested in the different varieties please ask us!

Textured Hair One of the hottest trends this year for men’s haircuts have been textured hair. This particular men’s haircut style can be interpreted in various ways, but for our sake we define it as adding definition and separation to your hair so you can create different lengths and/or layers within it. The textured hair style looks messy and unstructured compared to other hair styles but if done correctly, can give you a look that is sexy and trendy. Below are three descrip...tions of specific textured hair styles. Textured Skin Fade: This specific textured hair style is great if you want a little bit of long hair and a little bit of short hair. A skin fade is achieved by cutting hair shorter and shorter as it moves towards the neck. Pair this with a full head of textured hair towards the top and you’ll be part of one of the hottest trends out there. The combination of shaved sides with a full head of textured hair complement each other nicely and it’s very easy to take care of. Textured Curls: Just because you already have curly hair, which has a naturally messy look, doesn’t mean you can’t enhance your hair even more. Curls look great with wavy texture accentuated as well. With more volume you have the ability to brush it up or keep it left flying on the side. Curly-haired gentlemen benefit the most from adding texture because it makes their hair more prominent and noticeable. Textured Wave: This textured hair style builds up the volume of your hair in a wavy style that comes up almost effortlessly. For this hair style, texture is used to create a unique contrast and inspire movement of the upper half of your head. The textured wave is best for straight-haired gentlemen who are looking for a messy and flowy appearance. If you’re looking for a new trendy look, ask for a textured hair style and you’ll be surprised at how well you can pull it off.

Healthy Hair When it comes to men’s hair styles, there is a perception that because their hair tends to be shorter it requires less care and attention. Wrong. Hair care for men is just as important as hair care for women. Taking care of your hair is part of personal hygiene, so treat it like you would your teeth, skin, and body. Your hair, no matter how short deserves proper treatment. If you’re a guy looking for some pointers on how to start caring for your hair, look no fur...ther than what we have outlined here! First, wash your hair with quality products. Guys tend to buy the cheapest and lowest-quality products because, let’s face it, it gets the job done. However, your choice can have long lasting effects. Cheap shampoo often has toxins and chemicals that can do serious damage to your head and your hair. Try to use shampoo that is composed of natural ingredients and doing that alone will lead to healthier hair. A strongly recommended shampoo across the barbering industry is clarifying shampoo. Clarifying shampoo pulls out all the dirt and dead skin that has built up and retains your shiny hair. Washing your hair once a day with clarifying shampoo is more than enough and will translate into healthier, stronger, and better looking hair. Secondly, when you dry your hair with a towel don’t rub it. Dry your hair gently because when your hair is wet it is weaker and vulnerable to damages. Avoid rubbing your hair aggressively right after the shower because it can lead to excessive breakage. Instead of rubbing your hair, try patting it until dry. Your hair will thank you later. Last but not least, try to limit your hair’s exposure to too much heat. Avoid using hair dryers to speed up drying from water or gel. Enjoy some sun, but don’t have the sun rays beating down on your hair for too long. Too much heat can lead to the stripping of essential oils from your hair and scalp which leads to dryness. Too much heat from the sun can damage your scalp just as it would your arms and legs. Stay away from too much heat and you and your hair will be in much better condition. Hair is one of the most neglected parts of a man’s body. It deserves treatment and care in order to stay healthy. Follow these tips and you are promised to have healthier hair in the near future.

A day full of beer and beards is almost a requirement as there is no other way to celebrate. If you are just as excited for this St. Patty’s Day as we are, below are some beard types that you might... want to rock on March 17th. The Chinstrap: The Chinstrap is one of the trendier styles that is found almost everywhere nowadays. This beard covers only the marginal part of the chin. A mustache is optional depending on your preferred look. The Chinstrap looks best on square or rectangular face shapes with a wide chin. In order to pull off this beard we recommend keeping the rest of your cheeks free of hair. For St. Patty’s Day, growing the Chinstrap out as long as possible is the only way to do it. The Muttonchop: Ever seen X-men? If you have then you know exactly what the Muttonchop looks like. If you are looking for something exciting and crazy for St. Patty’s Day this is definitely one you may want to consider. The Muttonchop includes special use of your sideburns. Grow your sideburns long to the beard prolonging to the corner of the lips and down the cheeks. Then, shave off all of the front facing hair on the chin. This is an awesome beard type to pull off for St. Patty’s Day. The Muttonchop looks best on oval and inverted triangular face shapes. The Amish: If you have the ability to grow a full beard really quickly and want to show it off, try out the Amish beard. This beard type is a variant of a full beard. All you have to do is grow your beard as long as possible. However, to properly pull of this beard type, a mustache is prohibited. The Amish might lead to an unkept look but that is okay. To clean it up a bit you can use beard oil to help the craziness. A big beard on St. Patty’s Day is definitely something that will impress. For this St. Patty’s Day, make sure you have the nicest looking yet most unique beard at the party. Do not be afraid to show off your facial hair.

Beard Types Mugshot Barber Shop Roseville Lincoln Rocklin Granite Bay Sacramento Happy New Year! Now that 2019 is finally here, now is the perfect time to try out the good ol’, new year, new me resolution. January is a time where people try all sorts of new things. If you are still looking to try something new in 2019, a fun and easy option is to change your appearance. We’re talking facial appearance. Sure, you can change your haircut to a different style, but for all you ...risk takers, how about trying to grow a beard? It will be a fun challenge that you might fall in love with and if you don’t, you can always shave it off. For those of you who are interested in beard types for your new look, below is a description of the most popular styles. First and foremost, it’s important to understand that different beard types go with different head shapes, hair styles, and even personality type. Not everyone can pull of the same beard type. Let’s start with the circle beard. The circle beard, also known as the standard beard, is a combination of a round goatee and a mustache. It can be pulled off with almost any haircut, making it one of the most popular beard styles. It is often kept short and tidy making it easy to care for and it’s a style that isn’t too fancy for men who are trying out a beard for the first time. It can be difficult to get the right circle shape for the first time. For help and guidance our stylists will be more than happy to help you out. The next beard type is for those who are looking for a completely different look. We’re talking about the full beard. The full beard is known to emphasize your features much better, that is, if it is well-groomed. A full beard is popular for men who have diamond or triangular shaped faces. A full beard type requires more tedious care but has been one of the trendiest types as of late. Finally, the last beard type we’ll outline is the stubble. The stubble goes best with almost any hair length and style. Short, medium, or long a stubble is also very popular because of its simplicity. There are no special or complex methods to maintain the look. All you have to do is let your mustache and beard grow for a few days. After a few days pass, trim your facial hair to your desired length. Just make sure you shape the facial hair in a way that concentrates on the lower part of your face. That’s all it takes! Have fun with your new years resolution by trying out these new beard types.
