Hey all, hope your all well and good.
Now I know, this doe's seem a bit of a girly, silly thing to ask but...
Has anyone got any tips about how to do Jason's hair from 1989 to 1992(ish)? You know the whole shaved sides with long hair on top thing. I've got to to the long process of growing my hair out 1st, it's only just coming down to my eyes, There's pictures and video of him playing etc, I can't seem to find a good shot of the back of his head to see if the whole lot has been shaved off or it's like a huge mohawk with the hair running down the back of the head.
Again, sorry to ask such a stupid question but I thought hey it's worth a shot.
Thanks.

Just shave the sides and the back, leave everything on the top of your head long. It was big back in the 90's.

Just get a a hair clipper and go at it.
You don't need Allen Edwards for that.

Jason was the guy who got me into playing bass, but only he could rock that mop. For everyone else, it's fashion suicide

Im pretty sure he shaved all the way around.

Oh yeah, and you lose metal points for over-thinking it too btw...

For dudes to pull it off they need a head shape that looks good when it's bald. Quote:
