The 6 Must-See Men's Grooming Moves You Missed This Week
The best grooming game—i.e. a good haircut, some tended-to scruff, and hydrated skin—can make a huge difference in how a man looks. If you ignore all three, well, you won't look like a DGAF rebel as much as a decade-older version of yourself. In order to motivate you to visit the barber regularly or just change up your routine once in a while, we're bringing you all the grooming moves you missed this week.
Usher’s Bleached Hair

This is really just an excuse to show this amazing photo of Usher talking on the phone among the bushes, like a certain White House press secretary we've come to loathe. But seriously, the two-tone, grown-out bleach job is a great look for guys who have the courage to pull it off, and is the natural progression of the bleach 'n' buzz we've been seeing lately.
G-Eazy’s Modern Pompadour

While we've been all about the carefree look of the Bro Flow, this is a more pulled-together way to wear longer, looser hair. For someone who has hair with a little length, consider adding a dose of gel or styling cream and combing it back for a modern riff on the classic pompadour.
Wilmer Valderrama’s Perfect Buzz Cut

As any men's grooming expert knows, there's more to a buzz cut than just taking a pair of hair clippers to your head. There are so many subtle iterations of the buzz cut, it's astounding. Here, Valderrama demonstrates our current favorite, which is tight on top with a tapered skin fade on the side. Why do we like it so much? Well, it looks styled, but there's virtually no upkeep to a ’do this short.

With facial hair reaching the mainstream, it's no big deal to see a celebrity sporting a beard or a mustache these days. But it is interesting to see Joe Jonas sporting the harder-to-find soul patch. Is this the beginning of a full-fledged revival? Only time will tell.
Harry Styles Embraces the Bro Flow

While G-Eazy prefers a more structured styling approach, Harry Styles is the ultimate owner of the untamed Bro Flow and wears it expertly. Just look at the way his hair has volume and looks held in place, but doesn't have that glossy, carapace-like gel look to it. We'd go ahead and guess that he uses a waxier product and—gulp—a hair dryer.
