Recently I visited the Waldorf barbershop early on a Saturday morning and observed an unusual occurrence: 3 brother came into the shop looking to get rockabilly/40s/50s haircuts. I mean, it's not usual to see a few guys in the shop at the same time looking for these cuts but it was fun seeing as they are brothers. The haircuts were done by Liam, Ger and Linda so the boys were in the chairs beside each other. I like the way each haircut is different, yet it is noticeably vintage. These guys were actually heading off together to Memphis , Tennessee which they do every year. This was their first time at the Waldorf - they heard about the place when they saw it on TV recently.

I believe the old barber books would call that a medium pompadour.
