To All the Dads: Happy Father's Day!

Monica Vidal, Jack Hartzman, Mark Hamilton, Howard Lansat, Erin Scales

OK, GENTLEMEN. You’ve waited patiently for your turn. Last month, we brought you our Ladies issue—it is ladies first, after all—and this month, we present our “Gents” issue, celebrating all things masculine. Of course, there’s Father’s Day on June 16, but there are so many more reasons why it’s great to be a guy this month. With the summer season underway, the long, sunny days can be filled with backyard cookouts, baseball games, camping trips, fishing excursions, golf and so much more. To gather information for this issue and inspire others, we interviewed a few “Good Men” about their lessons in life. You might even recognize a few faces. And for those looking to improve physical fitness and well-being, the Pilates for men workout routine on page 26 with Sean FM of One Aum Health and Wellness Centeris a great place to start. So, gents, crack open a cold one or perhaps sip the largest—and I must say the best—

The FADE

what it is There are many different types of fades, but ultimately a fade haircut is one that tapers in length the further down you go on the back and sides, meaning it isnâ€™t trimmed to just one standard length all around. The level of fade (low, mid or high) depends on what point the shortest part of the hair begins to fade into a longer length. ASK FOR Taper fade, low fade, mid fade, high fade or skin fade

what it is This popular style is good for many types of hair as long as you have a lot of it. Youâ€™ll need length in the front, back and sides generally long enough to at least brush your shoulders. KEEP IT CLEAN Be sure to keep your sideburns and neckline trimmed even as your hair grows out.

The quiff

what it is Closely related to the pompadour, the quiff haircut requires longer hair in the front and shorter hair in the back. The longer hair in the front is brushed upward and back from the forehead and away from the face. This look can be sleek and shiny for a classic look or texturized and matte for a modern take. ASK FOR Short sides and a long textured top. Be sure enough hair is left on top to brush back instead of standing straight up.
