Hi, I have a 13yr. old son. I would like to say its youe hair have it anyway you want, you are old enough. (Clean of course though) Anyways Ie tried this for about a year. But, Ie got to say, he doesn have a clue! He wanted it kinda long skater style. We let it grown out. But, when we went to the hair salon to get it shaped up after it grew out, he didn know how to explain what it supposed to be cut like. When we were done and 18 bucks later it looked almost exactly the same! Now, I know he was going for the messy longer look but this had no shape or style to it at all. Even he said "no that not really what I wanted" when we got home. Although he didn really care as long as his hair was "shaggy" Ie seen kids with longer skater hair. It wasn a mess. But I don know how to describe it to a stylist. And neither can he. I cant find anything online that show teen guy cuts. Only women & men. I don want to take a mom power trip & cut it all off. But, by now I want to. Any ideas?

Not every stylist knows how to do those styles. You or he needs to ask around to find out who cuts the other skaters' hair, then have him look through skater and music magazines to find what he wants and take that in to one of those stylists to show what he wants. OR, instead of a magazine, if he has a friend who has a similar style to what he wants, he could bring the friend along and tell the stylist, "I want my hair almost like his, but a little shorter here, a little longer there and more shaggy layers through here."

I'm sure that you know all salons have books with men's styles. Have him look through these and pick one he likes. He can even show the stylist something he likes and add his own special "look" to it.

Ask them for a magazine. I think he just got a trim which only takes of one or two inches.

ask him if he's interested in dread locks

It would be helpful if you and/or your son have pictures of people from photographs, magazines or create drawings of what the hair style (from different views) should look like should help the hair stylist.

As a hair dresser for many years I check into the different trends of my teenagers. It is time he has his own stylist. If skating is his theme then together you need to go to a Tony Hawk web site or something of the like. Describing a picture is the hardest thing, especially for a boy teenager. A picture is worth a thousand words. Today there are "trendy" and very "edgy" hair salons. These may charge more but it would be money well spent if you have already wasted 18 dollars. Good luck......Just from the sounds of it it sounds like he needs texture cut into his hair with notching shears.

In my view the best way is that when you see a guy having the haircut your son wants, just go and ask that guy where he got his hair done. Go to the same salon and your problem is solved. Better still take a pic of that guy's hair and if possible ask him the hair dresser's name.
It will definately work for you.
Cheers

Usually my little skater guys get a razor cut it gives a lot of texture and movement in the hair.It gives them the look that they want.

Keep looking in magazines until you find the style.
