The Victorian naturalist style.

He looks like a young Charles Darwin.

*Looks around the office, yup.
We're changing from the Polo/Chino wearing flock (as they retire, move on, get booted out) into the trendy Yoof flock (hip, iPad, intelligent, smart thinking, networkers)

Thank God.

The only thing a man should aim for with hair styling is making the most of what you have left...

As for beards being mistaken for Ex Oxley is always interesting

Yoof and "smart thinking" are not two things I would normally associate together....

smart thinking is now just a look not a brain function. It can be boosted by carrying as much brushed aluminium as possible and constantly telling everyone how amazing everything about you is.

Minus the tats, that could, almost, be Soks Jnr. 😳

If you go to the Northern Quarter, it looks like he's been involved in a cloning experiment. It also looks familiar from somewhere else. Hmmmmm…..

I can't see any situation arising where you'd end up regretting having a big knife tattooed on your neck though 🙄

In my company, my beard marks me out as a dangerous subversive. 🙂

I also knew what he would look like before opening the link. It's really common around here as well. Either that or meat head with massive arms/skinny legs and a deep v-neck t shirt. Not sure which looks worse.

Dramatic change here in Shiney Town. Less than 18mths ago you'd be strung up by your Thurwitts cravat and lapel if you had the slightest two day growth.
Now, now it's a changed landscape.
Even some of the old Skool crowd are attempting to get "in" I've seen a Director of "Something or Other" with neatly trimmed Beard, long'ish hair (to his collar) and wearing a very fetching smart tweed suit in very neat cut and, and uber polished Chelsea Boots, yes Boots!!

CFH will be rolling around the floor at that description, but for sure... It's here...

Thank God 😆

Although, with the age difference, it's a bit like one of us fellas saying Nicki Minaj looks a mess 😉

Does anybody follow Ed Oxley or any of his friends, or North West Barber Co on instagram?

If so, this 'look' is also all you see on their feeds. With a neater beard, and less tattoos I think it looks reasonably smart, but wtf, why has it caught on so much? I guess all trends start off the same, someone trying to be individual, and then you all end up looking the same.

That hair do is EVERYHWERE, and is getting boring as hell, as are beards, have a shave you scruffy gets.

This was a funny related story:

Now that is odd.

Yucky. Beards in general are unattractive, I really don't like the Hitler youth hair, and the tattoo pretty much finishes off the horror. Although I am nearly 45.

God-daughter's new fella is a hipster:
Beard, full sleeve tat, pudding basin haircut, dresses like he was in The Band around the time of their first solo album.

And just to prove that tribal determinism is true, he owns 2 Surlys.

Nice lad - Hello Craig if you're lurking!

I just wish guys would embrace their hair. If you've got it then flaunt it, don't shave it off!

That bloke looks a right ned, trying too hard and devoid of any sexuality. 😀

Don't have a problem with facial hair but there is a limit. Tramp look is not nice.

Is it OK to say that Dezzie's sideys are cool. 😉

I guess that was for h&s reasons? not because someone might subvert some Creme Eggs.

So, CG to be clear - you want guys to proud of their hair and really make a big deal of it - but not this particular haircut....

Yeah H&S fairly normal in food. The fella at the start would be in all sorts of hair nets
