Very cool.
In a move that both surprised and delighted, Haircut Inspiration profiled the “surfer hairstyle” this month, lovingly detailing each of the fifteen varietals.
The very popular style website placed the look in its “tousled hairstyles” which are “purposefully messy, disheveled, and untidy, but still look the part” and gave an etymological nod, revealing it “takes its name from the stereotype of a hardcore surfer whose hair has been bleached by the sun, soaked in salty sea waters, and received minimal care” before divulging a long-held secret to acquiring.
“How to get surfer hair? This goes without saying, but if you’re looking to rock a surfer hairstyle, the first step is letting your hair grow long. Be sure to resist the temptations to just ‘trim a little off’ when your hair gets to an impractical length, as otherwise, you’ll never quite manage to grow it long enough!”
Then it was off to the fifteen individual representations, in no particular order.
-Wavy texture with high volume
-Messy bun and highlights
-Messy curls lying around
-The surfer messy hairstyle
-Touseled hairstyle
-Undercut surfer hairstyle
-Curly medium style
-Wet iconic surfer style
-Medium straight hair
-Shorter curly style
-Messy surfer hairstyle
-Where are the waves?
-Just outta waves
Fourteen and fifteen appear to be missing but could be greatest surfer in the world Kelly Slater bald and cool mom fab.

Barely a lad between the ages of 5 and 25 without a mullet in northern NSW.
What about pubes?
Yeah, nah. Other end.
You can’t go past the look Gmed rocks

Speaking of shit haircuts, my weensy tum-tum is rather rotten after that surf in the murk yesterday. I don’t get out enough to be used to the recent rainy run-off. I wonder if any of the visitors are feeling the effects? They probably have more robust immunity to those pathogens.
it might be quite nostalgic for all the punters who couldn’t have their annual Bali trip.
Or ( tummy ) RUMBLE IN RIO ….
Wonder which one(s?) Nick Carroll slipped his stumpy carrot into ?
(he said ages ago that he’d banged at least one pro back in the day)
P.S.
And presumably it was female…
P.P.S.
Is that Willy Morris (R.I.P.) in the pink ?
Kim Mearig 83 – 84 world champ in the pink with no Willy ( free or incarcerated )
Yes it was always hard to tell them apart in the old photos, but he had slightly chubbier chipmunk chops than her.
Maybe N.C.’s pro score was the short haired one at the right ?
This very talented surfer with short hair , formerly of WA , who won 13 CT events , that’s 13 more than Kolohe , got run over at Lennox in recent times and preferred sexual partners not of Nick’s Gender ( whatever that might be , and is totally up to Nick of course in these modern gender fluid times in which we live )
Yes exactly
Though in those days a lot of the lads considered her a better potential prospect than the rest of the women pro(?) surfers.
And N.C. never intimated if it was girl or boy pros he preferred to intimately share his hairy nub with in the olden days.
Heck he may have been exaggerating, and it was really a scrappy country town mat rider…
That’s what makes these pro surfers of today all look kind of lame, they all have basically the same kind of haircut, except that one dude. They are all about as rebellious as a girl scout.
Personally I favour a close crop with virtual luxuriously bouffant hair in a natty side parting, drawn on with a sharpy.

Do you guys have any suggestions for sea salt texturization hair products to give you that “just surfed” look out of the shower?
Just surf …don’t shower !
As you know . sea salt texturisation imitating has replaced religion as the opium of the (surfline )people ?
Good idea for Hurley.. My hair always looks better in the water. My cowlick'(s) are uncontrollable on land.
usually it’s a hapa jewfro or the mediner close shave
What about a young Buttons Kaluhiokalani afro ?
Or the ever popularly practical homejob buzzcut ?

If he ever stops milking the surf industry tit , he can come and live in my northern German suburban dream as he looks like the grandmothers at no 65 , 63 and 69 b just a few houses away …. Tschüss Oma Knost
I’m currently rocking a covid 19 shocker haircut that the girlfriend lovingly gave me!
If she is happy then you must be happy … it’s contagious ….. your happy hair Jimmy
I didnt know SIMPO models now! Go USA!
Love the juxtaposition of this article with the one below it with the pic of JJF’s cat hairball/redneck chic haircut.
Shaved head gets more waves. Scares the long hairs.
Not to mention that it drys much quicker and says goodbye to bad hair days ….
Absolutely. I cut my hair to 1/8″, and never let it get longer than 1/2″ (well north of 50, I still have a full head of hair). No problem getting waves, no matter where I go.
No mention of the Kelly Combover? https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
He had hair plugs at one point during a Fiji contest. Looked fucked in his interviews. Next contest gone.
Any photos of this?
Been trying to find the video clip. No luck.
Looks like men trying to grow crops on their head !
Don’t they know that
