Roger wrote a post on Neo Regency Men's Hairstyles for the Hairstyler.com. Below are his descriptions of the Prince Regent's hairstyle and the modern version of it.
The Real Deal: King George IV had cool Regency hair. Check it out: it's typical of the period in so far as it's cropped quite short and has a distict wind-blown look about it... his hair's all combed forward onto the forehead and kind of tousled. I guess the bangs are the central element and they're cut at brow length with plenty of texture.
The Neo Regency Look: Chace Crawford's hair is an example of Neo Regency today. It's short on the back and sides with a longer textured fringe, swept forward and piecey, making his hair a bit like an updated Caesar cut too. Some hair product is essential for creating the texture and making the bangs a little wispy, but don't use too much or you'll risk looking greasy.

Loved the men's hairstyles. I think it's important to have an idea about customs of the time and fashion. It really helps to picture Austens characters more clearly...as well as others.
I love to make different hair style and here some very cool style picture i have looking.Thanks for the new for me..
As long as it's clean, most hairstyles for men are O.K. with me, past and present, powdered wigs excluded. A lot of the cutting edge stuff ( and colors )now I just cannot get into, ( for either men or women ) !
