Quiff it up

Hair that rocks

Twenty-five years after his demise, Elvis is back at No1 in the UK charts. To celebrate, get yourself the rocking hairstyle of the moment, a demi quiff. It's a 21st century interpretation of the classic 50s Teddy Boy style and the perfect antidote to all the long and loose hippy hairstyles around. Toni & Guy has championed a Mohican version with choppy layers, but you don't have to pay their prices to get the look. Head to a local barber and request a quiff cut that will give you plenty of fringe to pay with. Use classic Brylcreem to keep the quiff raised - shape it while wet and blow dry upside down for more height. k.d. lang and Garbage's Shirley Manson are just two of the many sexy women who love quiffs.
