Recreate the hair of Hugh Jackman's Wolverine

From: boxwish.com

There are many things to admire about the look of Wolverine. The superhero as played by Hugh Jackman in the three X-Men movies and now to be found at your local multiplex in prequel X-Men Origins: Wolverine is the very vision of manly gruffness. There’s the incredibly muscled physique (find out how to get in shape the Wolverine way here), the cool leather jacket outfit and the hair. Okay, so the twin tufts aren’t quite as desirable, but how are you supposed to complete your Wolverine look without his signature barnet? Find out how to recreate it over the jump.

Hair website Hairfinder provides a useful Q and A section on their site which answers user requests and one such bod has asked for a guide to achieving the fuzz of the metal-clawed mutant. Hairfinder has accepted the challenge and have kindly provided a breakdown that informs us that Logan’s locks form a classic 50s style ‘do called the “duck tail” where the hair at the sides is combed to meet at the back and “overlap slightly to feather along the back of the head down the centre”. Think teddy boys and Elvis wannabes.

The guide then goes on to explain how to work the sideburns and how to whip your hair into those trademark side points. Read the entire article at the Hairfinder link below and go wild with that hair gel. Granted it’s not a look for the work place (unless you work as a professional Wolverine lookalike or in a 50s time warp), but it will work brilliantly with your fancy dress costume for this year’s Halloween!
