Ke Huy Quan: Quiff With Sharp Side Parting
Ke Huy Quan’s quiff with sharp side parting is the ultimate classic, old-school Hollywood vibe that’s timeless and elegant.
And surely there’s no better vibe to rock when you’ve just won your first Oscar?
Why We Love It:
Ke Huy Quan’s quiff with sharp side parting is the perfect hairstyle for the 50 year old who’s staged a huge Ke-naissance (as MFH has dubbed it).
An elegant, retro-inspired style, it showcases how damn shiny and healthy the man’s hair is.
And MFH has got the low down on how his hairstylist Anissa Salazar got this perfectly polished look.
Everything, Every Hair All At Once. (Had to be done. Sorry).
What To Ask Your Barber:
- Ke Huy Quan’s quiff with sharp side parting is a modern take on a 1960s look.
- Before the cut begins, show your hairstylist where you want your hair cut on the side.
- Anissa Salazar, his hairstylist told online publication The Tease that she removed bulk in his hair using clippers and then trimmed Ke’s hair with some shears.
- Then she cleaned up around the neck and nape for a precise finish with a shaver.
To achieve this look I began with the Andis reSURGE Shaver ($110.00) for a smooth and clean shave. The titanium plates are flexible and set you up for a tight shave, where the head of the shaver can hug the contour of the face. This amazing feature is key in not missing any straggling hairs!
- Next, I began removing bulk quickly using my cordless reVITE Clipper ($200.00), then trimming with my shears. Afterward, I cleaned up the nape and around the ears using the beSPOKE Trimmer ($250.00), using a point-cutting motion to take out any additional weight and then using the reSURGE Shaver on the neck and nape for a clean finish. These trimmers are great to get a precise, razor-sharp line.
- Then, I prepped the scalp using Tecuane Esperanza Scalp Tonic ($66.00). This tonic provides instant hydration and acts as a non-greasy primer. I completed the look by blow drying the hair 70% dry using the flat wrapping technique, and round brushing to over-direct in the opposite direction to achieve height and volume.
- Finally, I polished the look with lightweight and matte pomade!
