The Neo-Fro (and how to manage it)
Kid Cudi On His Ever Evolving Do
“When I lived in Cleveland, I had a barber who was by appointment only. We’d just kick it in his shop – I’d play him some of my music, and we’d crack jokes and watch movies. In high school, I kept a Caesar for a while, I had a Mohawk, and I used to apply these texturizer kits so I could have the bomb S-curl. I used to think I was [singer] Carl Thomas. Now I’m letting my hair grow out a bit, and I have this guy called Lyte who cuts my hair twice a week. Since I’m letting it go longer, I just get a trim and a lineup. I don’t really get the full cut anymore. I’m embracing my grungy look.”
1. The Look Cudi calls “grungy” below is actually very tidy. his barber usues electric clippers to create clean edges that frame his face.
2. He does let his curls go a bit, however. But who doesn’t right now? Just check out Kanye and Jay-Z.
3. Bigger hair, though, doesn’t mean a bigger beard. (He ain’t Rick Ross.) Cudi keeps it trim, fading seemlessly from his sideburns.

dope. lmao i used to use S curl too
hahaha idk if its real but he is wearing a shirt with the “datnewcudi” logo on the sleeve
lol no its not actually on his shirt, I put it there as a watermark.
he would look sick if he had a fade like drake wit tapers
That is a rad article
what glasses are they?
i wonder how does he get his hair like dat. Does anyone know??
I like that he always looks neat. Jay-Z and Kanye looked HORRIBLE with the mini-fro. Cudi’s always well put togther.
Kenny: You could, y’know, just READ the article.
What brand is that polo?
[...] Cudi is on the the newest cover of Complex Magazine. Cudi gets enough press (including a page in this months GQ), but I still felt the need to show him some more love on Handsome. There’s something real [...]

They definitely are not the Persol PO 2876V Eyeglasses I’ve found people to be mistaking them for.
