These photos show Buzztown regular reader "Dave
in Japan" with a regulation cut. The term "regulation cut"
is a reasonably broad term generally referring to a very short taper cut,
with the hair clipped to the skin at the lower area of the back and sides.
As a member of the U.S. military based in Japan, Dave has found that it has taken a while to work out how to get the cut he wants. |
"It's not too easy getting a good haircut overseas. The barbers don't usually understand all the subtleties of what you want; but after eight months of trial and error, I've gotten a pretty good fade. Once a week I ask for 'skin on the sides and back, trim the top, and leave the front long.' Actually I use a mix of English and Japanese, but that's the idea." Dave in Japan (AKA deejay). |
The pictures below show Dave's progression from
a regulation cut, to a high and tight with a medium/short brushed-forward
top to a very short high and tight flattop.
The pictures taken of the back of the head show how the shape of the head is changed by the different excellent styles. |
Thanks to Dave for sending these photos of his excellent regulation cut. Dave is currently gradually going to a shorter style, and some high and tight photos are now showing in the Buzztown Gallery. |
