I got an email from reader Sam from Indio, California. It reads:
Dear Jeff,
Can you tell me how I can get my hair to look like the guy on the movie Twilight? I tried gel but it made my hair stiff and crunchy. What would you suggest? Also if I have cool hair like his do you think Kristen Stewart would hook up with me?

Well Sam there are a few ways to go about getting the Rob Pattinson look. First things first, just stop with the gel altogether. Get yourself into a good Pomade. Use something like Bumble & Bumble Sumo Tech, or Osmo Shaper. Look for something with a matte or low shine finish. Take a big clump and work it through your hands. Run your hands through your hair. Make sure you get some product between your fingers so you can get some separation. Style with your hands. Working the product into dry hair as opposed to wet can make it easier to see and control. It also avoids the crispy wet look. Twist a few pieces up and your done. When you get a haircut tell your stylist you want a cut with lots of texture.
I think the above scenario should work for most men since it is easiest. If you find that isn’t working you can try this:…….First move to Los Angeles. Go to a lot of Parties in the Hollywood Hills. Smoke a few packs of cigarettes a day. Stop showering. Stop washing your hair. Throw away your conditioner. Sleep with models. Go to the gym and work mostly abs. Run your filthy vampire hands through your hair a lot. Get a really nice German car. Make sure it’s a convertible. Drive to Malibu with the top down and stick your head out the window. Park the car on the PCH take off your clothes and jump in the cold ocean water. Follow this up with Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray. Drink a fifth of Jack and drive to the Malibu Hills. Your hair should look almost right. At that point you can call Kristen Stewart and see what she says.
Let me know if this works.
Good Luck
Yeah, Same Guy
