7 Cool John-Allan Namu Facial Hair Cuts That Prove He Is The Master Of Facial Grooming. Number 7 Is The Complete Badass (Photos)

Everything sacred comes in sevens throughout many of the religions and even in life.

From the seven days of creation to the Seven Wonders of the World. You could say it is a number of perfection and orderliness. As far as men goes nothing is more sacred nor signifies perfection in personal grooming that facial hair.

Sure men will talk about shoes, belts wallets etc. but that can be misguiding. A man can buy from any store anything else but have and stick to only one barber, no Mpango Wa Kandos or quickies here. Facial hair is what will tell you how a man views himself, whether he is comfortable with his limitations, like a balding man going for a clean shave, or not, like the one who forces side burns where none exist. It speaks of a man’s personality how he expresses himself whether he is a free soul or not an as early as teenage hood, man begins his experimentation.

Among public figures, none has so much mastered the art of facial grooming as celebrated investigative journalist John-Allan Namu. Not that the rest are badly off but rather he is quite adept at pulling off several looks quite easily and still not look lost. Sure having luxuriant hair through to the sideburns and a full beard does help increase one’s options an John Namu has proven with these seven that he can be the pedestal for male facial grooming.

 The types are not professional descriptions for the cuts but rather conjectures of a progressively thinking mind. Here we go

1. The Cocky Professional

The haircut that speaks of a young upwardly mobile professional just initiated at the men’s table. It speaks confidence and calculated experimentation. Not wild with abandon but still screams ‘young and top of the world.’

2. The Alpha Male Cut

The confidence oozing in this one is in tones. From the hairline cut to the beard trimming. It is the hairline you have when you are fond of using statements like ‘do I look like the kind of fellow to repeat myself’. It also screams pack leader, the haircut of someone who has earned respect and is not used to justifying his actions

3. The Holy Groom Cut

Weddings have a way of making someone rediscover boyhood innocence. You do not take your lady to the altar pledging fidelity while rocking a hair cut that communicates the complete otherwise. So you rock your primary clean shaven cut which the barber at Kiganjo would have certified.

4. The Blue Eyed Boy At Work Cut

When you know you are the organization’s poster boy but still play the popular guy at work, this is the hair cut to rock. Innocent and clean enough to increase your approachability and cover up your top ambitions, but still cool enough to get the new lady at the corner and convince the receptionist you still got eyes for her.

5. The Man About Hood Cut

Every man with facial hair to write home about has rocked this at one point. It is the kind of hair you rock with the boys, or when on leave and the lady is quite away. You do not want to be bothered and are enjoying your freedom. You can also call it ‘The Revenant’ if the circumstances behind mean your beard is the last thing you are thinking about.

6. The Award Winning Cut

This is the cut for the cameras. Your safe bet that you come to settle for after years of self-search. You are comfortable with it at your in laws as well as at award ceremonies.  Given that it is your signature move, you make sure you carry the template with you should your barber cease his services.

7. The Rebel-Macho Cut

This is the cut for a man breaking out new ground, or looking for re-discovery. You know challenges lie ahead so you spot an equally menacing haircut that declares your resolute will before you start speaking. It is also the idealist cut, the one rebelling against norms. It screams I am Legend.
