 * To my eye it looks like a variation of a Pompadour_(hairstyle). Popular in the 1950's it seems it is back in style. Of course that is a guess on my part and other editors may have a different answer. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 12:17, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
 * The classic 50's pompadour, often nicknamed "the duck," did not have shaved sides or back. The faux hawk is shaved all the way around with bangs gelled up and back in a similar way, but rarely has a fade. The photo has a fade. So, it is a very standard military haircut. That was exactly the hair style I had in the Marine Corps back in the 90s. It didn't have a name. It was just "standard" at the barber shop. Because I tucked my bangs into my cover, they curled up and back just like that. As for the long bangs, when the bangs are longer than the rest of the hair, it is called a fringe. You can do anything you want wih fringe bangs such as flip them up, part them, or pull them off to one side. 97.82.165.112 (talk) 13:45, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
