How To Get Russell Brand’s Haircuts And Hairstyles? Credit: russellbrand.com
Russell Brand is an English comedian, actor, radio host and youtuber with a history as interesting as his hair. Brand started his career as a comedian and has won numerous awards for his stand up over the years. He then went on to present for MTV on the UK hit TV show Big Brother’s Big Mouth (2004). He then moved onto the big screen with his first film role in St Trinian’s (2207) which then led to an even bigger role in the romantic comedy Forgetting Sarah Marshall a year later. It was an undeniable fact that Brand had great on-screen presence which is unsurprising considering he is just as good on stage. He then went onto star in iconic comedies such as Get Him To The Greek (2010) alongside Jonah Hill, did some great voice acting for the Despicable Me (2010-13) film franchise, and even dabbled in a musical appearing in the film production of Rock of Ages (2012) featuring a host of stars such as Alec Baldwin, Tom Cruise, Catherine Zeta Jones and even Bryan Cranston – wow! This year Brand surprised his audience with a very serious role in a remake of Death on the Nile where he sported a very, very short new haircut (below).
These days Russell Brand has rebranded and is now a known public activist and campaigner speaking on a wide range of capitalist, political, cultural, and climate issues. The British comedian cleaned up his life and has gone on a journey of self-discovery. Brand is now very spiritual. He is interested in personal change, awakening, the soul, as well as ways to improve your personal well-being through meditation, clean living and using natural remedies.

It’s hardly surprising that we’re going to delve into some long hairstyles when it comes to Russell Brand. The man has been rocking the luscious long locks since long before I was born and it’s easy to see why. This man oozes British rock-god energy from the hair to the stubble on his chin. This look does require growing your hair out for a little while to get the required length.
How To Cut:
Head to the salon for this cut and ask for a decent trim and some layers. Your stylist needs to separate your hair into sections as this will make the hair easy to manage then pointcut into the hair just under shoulder length to give it that natural looking finish. Next they need to cut in a few long layers at a sharp angle between 8-10 inches. This will give your hair that nice volume and some face framing.
How To Style:
This is a great hairstyle to have and goes really well with a bit of stubble or a beard.
Everybody loves a man bun. Especially a long-haired fella. It has been sported by footballers such as Bale and Ibrahimovic to actors like Brad Pitt and Jared Leto. It is the easy way to wrangle that messy hair.
