Hairstyle inspired by Indian cricketers
How many times has it happened that you have visited a salon and asked your barber to give you the same haircut as Virat Kohli by showing him a picture of the cricketer, only to get something that doesn't look quite similar to his hairstyle? If it is too many times, then maybe you should consult the guide Jordan shared on Instagram for your next appointment.
Sharing the guide, the hairstylist wrote, 'For many years, I've been asked what clipper lengths and techniques are used on the styles of some of the Indian cricketers I've cut. Being style icons in India, I've added a guide for you to show your barber.'
1. Virat Kohli
According to Jordan, to get a side part mullet hairstyle just like Virat Kohli, here are a few things to remember:
Over direct point cutting
A cutthroat line
Clipper at number 2 setting to shorten the length of the hair, a number 1 setting (openm/closed) and 0.5/0 setting to add a little fade, and 00 setting for a bald look near the ear.
2. Hardik Pandya
For the cricketer's crop fringe haircut, the hairstylist suggested point cutting dry hair forward from the crown. Then, using a number 1 (open/closed lever) clipper setting for cropping the hair on the side, and a 0 setting to add a little fade.
The hairstylist also shared the guide to achieving Surya Kumar's crop fringe haircut, Devdutt Padikkal's crop haircut, Ishan Kishan's mullet burst taper haircut, and lastly, KL Rahul's square layers.
