    Does vintage make you look.... *older*?

    I agree with what several have said here...it seems that having decent manners is now seemed as "old-school" or vintage. As for looking older, I get it all the time. I don't mind at all. I'd rather be thought of as an "old man" any day, as long as they recognize me as an old man with style...

    Hair cuts

    Well Yeps....I got my hair cut today as well. Unfortunately, mine didn't go as planned. There are few barbers here, and I went to the one I've used the most before I decided to change my hairstyle to something more than a buzz cut. As you may have guessed, he isn't accustomed to period styles...

    The Adjustment Bureau

    I, for one, am intrigued by what I've seen. It reminds me somewhat more of Blade Runner than Dark City, but still has a different feel from either. It seems a bit diesel-punk, unlike Blade Runner's future setting...but it doesn't necessarily seem to fit totally into the Golden Era either...

    New fella with hair issues....

    I think my hair is a little too fine to put that much weight on it. It goes flat if I add too much Murray's for extra hold on top of the Groom&Clean. I'm still working toward that perfect amount...and getting some more length on top to get some of these wild spots to lay easier...lol

    New fella with hair issues....

    Since the original posts, I've tried a few different products including a water-based generic pomade, and Murray's original. So far, I have settled on Groom&Clean. It gives me adequate hold, though I could not be using enough, and both I and my wife like the scent. It also is easy to get the Don...

    Hair cuts

    My newest cut and style is on my avatar. Just now starting to grow out a "businessman's" cut. Likely move along to the "professional" once I get some length there.

    Thanks Widebrim for the welcome. I appreciate finding a forum that's full of like-minded individuals, as DapperChris stated. I hope to contribute at some point, but loving the education I'm already receiving in the threads.

    Rockabilly anyone??

    Hey guys and gals...love this style. Where can one find current happenings in the Rockabilly scene? Being from Southeast, Ky....I'm almost cutoff from all things vintage and retro. I have to go out of town just to breathe, if you know what I mean.

    What are you listening to?

    I couldn't agree more, miss. This is an amazing piece of bagpipe work.

    New fella with hair issues....

    Thanks for the reply guys. I really appreciate the feedback. I have looked briefly at the pomade and brylcreem boards, but most posts speak of them helping their full, thick hair be manageable. I've had the buzzcut for a while to help with the thinning....but since I still have some up there...

    New fella with hair issues....

    Hello gents! I'm new-ish to the scene, and trying to get my feet wet in all things vintage and gentlemanly. I have some things under my belt, but my hair isn't one of them. I have short, somewhat wispy hair. It's rather unruly, and because it's so light, fly-aways are an issue. I currently have...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    It really was quite a great film. Being from the South myself, it had such a wonderful nostalgia for me. I, of course, have always been told the stories of the "good old days," but to see a period piece that was so nicely done gives weight to those visions of grandeur...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Hello all. My name is Seldon, I appreciate an active forum about the good things in life...even if I am celebrating them 50 years late. I have been an enthusiast for quite some time, but have only been "hell-bent" more recently. I came this route via Badger and Blade wet-shaving forums, and with...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Please don't flog me, but I just watched Gone with the Wind for the first time this weekend. It was an absolutely amazing film! I am only now learning to appreciate the films of the Golden Era. I have been a fan of the era for quite some time, but my focus had been on film noir, and other of the...
