Against the Grain or With the Grain... That is the Question

Kevin Hart took the world by storm with his newly released stand up comedy movie, 'Let Me Explain.'  He was pretty funny if I might say so myself with several "gut busting" stories that made the entire audience LOL literally. 

Of course being the Barber that I am, I couldn't help but notice Kevin Hart's cut - against the grain, low, all over even.  Good cut especially when you're on a stage in front of thousands of people at Madison Square Garden who are collectively blowing hot air towards you when they laugh.

Using the "Against the Grain" term to describe your cut is perfect when you're looking that low but cool look.  Pretty much the clippers cut toward the back of your head, creating a shadow.  Alternatively, when going "With the Grain" clippers cut toward the front of your head - giving you a fuller look and bringing out the natural waves in your hair. 

So remember "Against the Grain" or "With the Grain" when you come in for your next cut.  I'll be happy to explain what would be the best look for you.  Holla at your Barber Tone - I'll bet putting in extra hours Friday and Saturday just to make sure you stay fresh (and cool) this summer.
