Know it:

Calling Jay Gatsby. This is the look that flattened women’s hearts during America’s Golden Age.

Get it:

The Scumbag Boogie is in every Reuzel barber’s wheelhouse. If you find yourself elsewhere, ask for a high fade and a relatively high side part. Tell them you want enough left up top to give your hair a bit of a wave.

Build it:

1. After a nice shower and daily shampoo, dry your hair with a towel. Use a comb to establish a clean part.

2. Blow dry hair with a vent brush, without lifting or creating excessive volume. (In fact, if you aren’t headed out for a bit, you can let the hair dry on its own.)

3. Once dry, apply a liberal amount of Reuzel Blue Pomade for a firm hold, smoothing it from the part sideways. Or use Reuzel Red Pomade for a hold that’ll loosen up after a solid hour of jitterbugging, if you know what we mean.

4. Comb hair into place, letting the teeth flow naturally with the wave of your hair. Let the good times roll.
