Suiting up for a Jared Leto style
Recreating Jared Leto’s hairstyle can be a little bit of a challenge.
- First, you need to have a long straight hair. Tucking our hair in place at the back of your head does not work for men with wavy and curly hair.
- His hairstyle is suited for men with elongated face. The hair neatly combed at the back highlights the shape of the head without overdoing it.
- There’s something about his beard. This can be debatable especially for men who cannot grow such bushy face. But if you can, rock it on!
