Our favorite style? A longer, slicked-back look with an edgy side part. The secret to the masculine style? A strong holding styling PASTE and Premium Hairspray.

Though Jax Teller ((played by actor Charlie Hunnam) may not be best known for his superior fathering skills, his iconic slicked-back style is impossible to forget—even if it’s been more than three years since he’s been on television screens. To achieve the “I’m too busy doing dangerous things to wash my hair” look without forgoing the shower, opt for a longer bob cut with a tapered fade around the sideburns and a high-shine POMADE for styling.
The Dad: Don Draper - “Mad Men”
The ‘Do: Sleek Comb-Over

Don Draper (played by actor Jon Hamm) helped bring back the art of grooming during the “Mad Men” era with his dapper comb-over. The classic style scored big with the ladies during Draper’s heyday in the ’60s—and promises to command even more attention in 2018. To give the retro look a modern spin, work a dime-size amount of POMADE through damp hair, then use a comb to create a side part. Next, comb the front of the hair to the side, then comb the sides down and finish with a flexible-hold hairspray.
The Dad: Jesse Katsopolis - “Full House”
The ‘Do: Tousled & Voluminous

Jesse Katsopolis (played by actor John Stamos), aka “Uncle Jesse” made a name for himself as a doting uncle and caring father with great hair. In the Netflix reboot “Fuller House,” Katsopolis continues to sport soft, voluminous locks that literally haven’t aged a bit. To achieve Katsopolis’ iconic volume, opt for a moisturizing shampoo that will add body without weighing your hair down and of course Premium Hairspray to keep your hair in place when you jump on your hog.
