Some guys are not aware that getting a good haircut is very important. Unlike girls who could do lots of stuff to look good, us men only have three major areas that we could improve on: First is by making our bodies fit, second is by improving one’s face by minimizing acne and third is by getting a great haircut. Interestingly, a lot of us tend to neglect the latter which is by far the easiest thing to do.

So why is it important for guys to get a good haircut? Here are the top 4 reasons:
1. Haircut determines your personality
Your hair is as important as any part of your body. It gives you personality and character. Want to look like an emo? A rockstar? A model? Or perhaps a sportstar? Have your hair done and you’d surely look like the character you most want to be like.
2. Haircut shows your outlook in life
Believe it or not, your hairstyle projects your outlook in life. Too messy a hair and you will look like you’re stressed. Too neat a hair and you will look like an optimistic professional. Too stylish a hair and you’d look younger than your age.
3. Haircut shows your attractiveness
There are some haircuts which look good on others but don’t look good on you and vice versa. This is because the shape of your face will determine whether a certain hairstyle will look good on you or not. So choosing one recommended by the barber or stylist is essential.
4. Haircut can make you a headturner
Related to #3, if your haircut is generally impressive, you will become a headturner as you walk along. I don’t want to sound proud but just this weekend, when I got myself a nice haircut, I noticed a pretty girl at the mall who took a second look at me (and my hair). It was really flattering and it feels good.
As you can see, haircuts are often ignored by many of us (I included). But after having my hair done this weekend, I am happy to say that my perspective on styling my hair has really changed a lot.

I believe that a nice haircut adds pogi points but apparently, it doesnt work for me. I have a rather “unruly” hair and it is hard to come up with a design or style for my hair. It will only be either be semikal or “bird’s nest” style. I am just apprehensive about getting a hair relax or rebond treatment coz it might add up to my hair problem. And besides, the hairline is somewhat receding already. hehehe
Agree.
Since I was in High School, I became vain on the style of my hair with lots of credits to my elder brother which influenced me on using either gel or wax. Nakakatakot lang minsan coz I dont want to grow old bald. Who wants to be, right?
Anyways, nice article.
vanity is one sin i commit…
since high school, i hello i try to keep my hair and skin well groomed. rebonding isnt “in”yet then so i have my hair relax to keep neat=)
i see no wrong about guys having to go to a salon to have their hair be in good shape.
i agree to those reasons! galing mo chris,.. aehhe
thanks bugITs and Patricio.
doc/Janus - great hairstyles will make others take a second-look! guaranteed.
Chris,
any recommendation of a great hairstylist? maybe i could go to your stylist.
Janus,
Any hairstylist will do. Salons are good because they know what’s the latest trend and they know which type of haircut will best fit the shape of your face.
btw, how did you learn of Pinoy Guy Guide? It’s nice to see you around.

I really want to have a longer hair than the usual hairstyle i have right now. But my school doesn’t permit hair that touches the ears and the collar of our uniform. Have any suggestions?
Thanks Jayvee.
