Why We Love It:
Shawn Mendes’ wavy, textured, tapered hairstyle has give him a whole new vibe.
The superstar singer shaved his medium-length curls off into a buzz cut earlier this year. He told the Wall Street Journal: “I think everyone should know what they look like with a shaved head. I also was just feeling this urge to just shake myself up a little bit.”
And it has already grown enough in just a few months that he can enjoy playing around with the texture of this new, short look.
For the Oscars he wore it in a smoother, brushed-back quiff style. But day to day, he’s clearly enjoying giving it a bit of tousle.
He follows up with the Moroccanoil Treatment which is packed with shine-boosting vitamins.
