You would think good hair wouldn’t be a deal breaker, but hair defines men just as much as it does women. You know when you see a head of short spikes gelled up with highlighted tips across the bar that your potential partner has not yet grown out of the 1990s and still worships Blink 182 and Offspring. Or what about the guy who always shaves his head at the beginning of summer. It’s no surprise when he shows up to your best friend’s black-tie wedding wearing shorts and a t-shirt. And surely you’ve seen the end all of trendy hair statements, the perfectly shaggy mop of the hipster. If you like dogs, the shaggy mop is a sign from pooch heaven that he won’t object to sharing custody of a maltipoo later down the line.
But there are two men with luxurious locks we at Comediva particularly love and admire as the epitome of well-groomed masculinity: Justin Bieber and Donald Trump. Who else defines for us the male ideal of hair but a young pop sensation and a billionaire Wall Street tycoon who could be your grandfather?
Name: |
Justin Drew Bieber
|
Donald John Trump
|
Age: | Not yet legal in the states, but yes in some European countries. |
Cod-liver oil old |
Signature Hair Style: | Helmet meets bowl cut. Recently, he went with a more “mature” look, but for us it’s all about the classic 2009-2010 look. |
Iconic front-roll comb over bang combination |
Occupation: | Teen heartthrob. | Businessman, entrepreneur, media whore. |
Nicknames: | Bieber, Biebs, Jail-bait. | The Donald. |
Why We Fall For Their Follicles: | Oh baby, baby, baby oh that hair is shiny and smooth. Like many teen idols before him, it can’t be put into words exactly what the attraction is. It just is. | He’s embraced what most men would consider a physical fault and made it synonymous with money and power. He’s hired. |
Now, these two have hair that is beyond a doubt divine. But what if in some cosmic twist of follicle fate we were able to combine the complete coverage of Bieber and the iconic styling of Trump. What might this truly epic hair look like?
One man, folks. The infamous former governor of Illinois, Rob Blagojevich. See for yourself, the hair that launched the careers of a thousand political pundits. But hey, it took a lot of hard work to get that hair. No attention to detail was spared, including making his aides carry around a hairbrush, you know, just in case the worst happened. Like a giant bloated gust of hot air, oh wait …
Whose hair is worthy enough to compete against these sirens of male style? Let us know in the comments below.

Wow, the ultimate hair-off! Justin Bieber vs. Donald Trump: The Bieber vs. whatever that thing on Trump’s head is? I have to go with The Donald. He’s got the longevity.
You had me at “combover.” I vote The Donald!
Nothing says powerful man like hair combed forward. All the easier for me to snip off!
