The following quote is from the Army Officer's Guide, 45th Edition by LTC Lawrence P. Crocker, U.S. Army (Ret.) (Stackpole Books 1.800-READ-NOW, Harrisburg, PA), Soft cover ISBN 0.8117.2313.5, $17.95, 607 pps., 1990.
'HAIR. There are many acceptable hair styles, so long as they are not extreme or faddish. If dyes, tints, or bleaches are used, the resulting color must look like natural human hair.
Males. The hair on the top of the head must be neatly groomed. The length and bulk of the hair will be such that it does not present a ragged, unkempt, or extreme appearance. The hair should present a tapered appearance when combed and not fall over the ears or eyebrows or touch the collar except for the closely cut hair at the back of the neck. In all cases, the bulk or length must not interfere with normal wear of headgear or protective masks.
Sideburns must be neatly trimmed. The base will not be flared, nor will it extend below the lowest part of the exterior ear opening. The bottom will be a clean-shaven horizontal line.
The face is to be clean-shaven except that a mustache is permitted, provided it is kept neatly trimmed, tapered, and tidy. No portion of the mustache may cover the upper lip or extend sideways beyond the corners of the mouth, nor will it present a chopped-off appearance. Handlebar mustache's, goatees, and beards are expressly forbidden.
The wearing of a wig or hairpiece is forbidden except to cover natural baldness or physical disfiguration caused by an accident or medical procedure. When worn it will conform to haircut criteria state above. As an exception to this policy, Army National Guard (ARNG) and U.S. Army Reserve (USAR) personnel may wear a wig or hairpiece conforming to the haircut criteria during the unit training assemblies or when serving on active duty for training or full-time training duty for periods of thirty days or less. When ordered to active duty for period greater than thirty days, ARNG and USAR personnel fall under the same rules as other active duty personnel.'

By Christian R. Jones from Schiffer Publishing, Ltd.; ISBN: 0764306952. A great antique picture book containing barbershop antiques and collectibles (chairs, poles, clippers, razors). Almost 1,000 barbershop items with over 600 color photographs. Updated: 15-MAY-2019
Author: Tally Abecassis, Photographer: Claudine Sauve, from Black Dog Publishing. Once a hub of local news and activity, sacred to men and closed to women, the barbershop is slowly disappearing. If walls could talk, they would tell of little boys first visits with their fathers, of potions and lotions applied to men's beards and self-esteem, of great arguments held, of friendships made, broken, and made again.
Barbershops captures the spirit of these moments in a unique book that unites photos and interviews to bring the reader a slice of barbershop life. It features characters like Menick the sports barber, whose salon floor is a painted replica of a hockey rink and who hosted a TV series
from his chair; Jimmy, whose collection of taxidermy is a bizarre testament to his love of hunting; Pierre, the poet barber who sings opera and dreams of Greece; Poquito, whose shop is so busy that he sometimes stays overnight, sleeping in his barber-chair; and Mike, the bowling barber whose trophies line the walls of his shop.

Forty or so young men, of varying degrees of blondness, are featured in this glossy, magazine-sized picture book. A thumbnail sketch of each man tends of be of the 'puff piece' variety but the photographs (all in color) provide ample amounts of 'eye candy.' Of the men, only Hans Lundgren -- now known as Dolph Lundgren -- achieved any fame but a few of the others are worth noting, such as the oh-so-handsome Duke Lyskin and the Speedo-filling Peter Cook.

Freshmen celebrates 10 years with 120 pages of the hottest & sexiest Freshmen models from the past ten years! Many, if not most, of the excellent color photographs, by 61 contributing photographers, clearly show up-close the various and vital head hair of the chosen models -- down to details of texture, comb marks, hair parts and head shape. These firm young men, who know how to develop and care for their handsome bodies and endowments, obviously take pride in their attention-getting heads of hair as well. Their hair fully shown off is a very exciting feature of their male attraction, and they know it!
Riveted hair-fetishers viewing these pages will find hair of all shades, from coal black, warm brown, tan, sun-blond, natural blond -- to chestnut and red. My personal favorite is John Roberts (p. 99, June 1998), a red-haired preppy puppy with even redder hair down below his freckled torso in a bush above his erect tipping point. Hair length varies from crew-cut to teasing over-the-forehead tousled forelocks. Some guys have groomed their hair with ocean spray, light oil, mousse, hair tonic, gym fountain water, or just finger-raked their clean hair back, or let the wind have its way with the way it parts and flows.
Though this is a collector's issue of keen bodies and handsome faces, it also shows off well the fascinating variety of men's head hair, their softest, most individualizing feature -- and the one thing that many of us search out and look at first. And, the models' names are legion, famous and acclaimed -- you have to take a look for yourself. For starters, why resist the healthy temptation to get wallpaper/screensavers easily available by download at www.freshmen.com?

Groom (1992)★★★★★
All the men's styles were created by David Raccuglia and with Mark Havriliak behind the lens. Two great hair fetishers if you ask me.

Styles ranging from crew cuts to shoulder length hair have been covered in this delightful book. Groom is 9.5 X 13, in black and white and no longer available. Updated: 07-NOV-1998

Photographs by Uwe Ditz from Edition Stemmle / Zurich - March 2000, ISBN 3.908163.17-X. Phone orders: 1.800-Artbook With this book, the photographer Uwe Ditz realizes a lifelong dream of presenting a diverse collection of people with red hair. Painstaking care and attention to detail guided his approach. He photographed his models, redheads of both sexes, all ages, hair lengths, and origins, completely in white against a white background, thus eliminating all distractions that could possibly divert attention away from skin and hair in these brilliantly sharp photos. Using a large-format studio camera, the artist has created images of breathtaking, penetrating intensity.
His subjects are as diverse as life itself; they appear in relaxed, carefree attitudes, showing their private sides, usually with a generous dash of humor. Many of them have provided personal statements about the somewhat different lives they lead. Never before has the distinctiveness and the appeal of redheads been presented with such warmpth, wit and skill as in these compelling large-format portraits. It is a wonderful book, a source of enjoyment for all -- and, of course, an ideal gift for redheaded friends. Updated: 31-MAR-2007

For the first time in history, a ground breaking book Shorn: Toys to Men written by Dennis Milam Bensie, addresses the cutting of men's hair fetish. Not only does Shorn delve into Dennis' insatiable desire to cut men's hair, he also addresses the psychological impact the fetish had on him and others. Dennis rightfully proclaims, 'One man cutting another man's hair is one of the few times two adult men can touch and it is socially acceptable.'
Shorn reads as if Dennis is telling the reader a story they haven't heard before, thus making it for interesting reading especially where he discusses his inner most feelings and secrets about men's hair. It is a very moving portrayal taking us from his childhood and focusing on the little nuances that caused his insatiable irresistible desire to cut hair, starting with handmade string haired dolls, to Barbie doll heads, then to men, thus the title Shorn: Toys to Men.
Many gay men can identify with the anguish young Dennis goes through during the school years of being humiliated, bullied, being called sissy, unable to throw a ball or walk like a man. Shorn is Dennis' journey into self-discovery and the discovery that he is not alone and there are others out there who, like Dennis are, ' . . . extremely turned on by any man who had a beautiful head of hair. Men with little or no hair were of no sexual interest.' Dennis goes on to say, 'If I saw a guy comb his hair, I was in heaven.' Who didn't when they see a beautiful head of hair? However, this is the first time we are reading about it.
Most men's hair fetishists identify with Dennis' statement, 'I was setting up a pattern of selecting my sex partners based on how attractive I was to their hair . . . however, it was doubtful that I'd still find a guy attractive if he was bald, and I would be too embarrassed to date a guy whose head I had shaved.' It is statements like this that make Shorn: Toys to Men a phenomenal novel. Dennis goes on to say, 'I had become accustomed to fantasizing about cutting guy's hair while I masturbated. It seemed likely that I would become sexually aroused while cutting a guy's hair,' a fantasy many can identify with. Later in the novel, Dennis does just what he fantasized about. At one point, Dennis reiterates hair first then the rest of the body. When he had sex with a mustached guy, he writes, 'I was like a wild animal playing with his mustache . . . it was almost like his penis didn't count.' Again, reiterating hair first, body second.
Where some would fantasize about shearing another guy, Dennis actually does it. At one point, Dennis was asked by a hustler, 'Why do you want to cut my hair?' Dennis replies, 'I get sexually excited cutting men's hair. I would get very turned on if I could buzz your head while we have sex.' Later, his haircutting fixation turns to where Dennis is the one humiliating his pray by cutting their hair, a turnaround from his childhood days when he was the one being humiliated. 'There was absolutely nothing I could do to get rid of my haircutting impulse.' As an added bonus, Shorn includes numerous before and after photographs of the cuts, generally of past shoulder length hair being shorn completely.
Reading about Dennis' adventures became almost an obsession with wanting to discover what he would do next. This lead to a fast captivating read, finding myself not wanting to put this magnificent book down because of the momentum and wanting to know what happens next. Many of the things Dennis brings to light in Shorn, a hair fetishist can truly identify with, and has probably gone through some of the same anguish, gratification, trials and tribulations that Shorn exposes.
It is little wonder on how fantastic a book Shorn: Toys to Men is and that it is on its way of becoming a classic novel, as is already a stage play called The Cut, which premiered on January 14, 2011, at Seattle's Open Circle Theater in Belltown. It wouldn't surprise me to see Shorn turned into a movie as it contains many of the elements of the hero's journey which would make it a blockbuster. Reviewed by: MensHair.org Updated: 09-APR-2022

This item is included here since it really doesn't fit anywhere else. It is an audio cassette/CD which contains popular songs like 'It's Only Natural', 'Fall at Your Feet,' and 'There Goes God'. The four artists, Paul Hestor, Nick Seymour, Neil Finn and Tim Finn (Gary Stamler Management, Los Angeles) are shown in a 3-7/8' x 5' color PHOTO encasing the cover that is unforgettable and pretty arousing. The four fresh-faced hunks are buried in sand at the four compass points, with their dark, medium-length haircuts touching and blending together in the center (photographed from above looking down at the four). The touching closeness, male head hair handsomeness, and joy -- make it a specially spiritual and exciting. Updated: 15-MAY-2019
