I hear it all the time “Nick what’s with your hair?” Or “Nick your hair is bananas! You look like a Greek god!” Yeah. I know. Apart from being actually 50% Greek and always having tan skin no matter what the season, Thanks mom! I like to…well I don’t know where I was going with that. Anyhow I was also spending mucho timeo on the Fbook perusing the articles with the new timeline and took a look at the pics throughout the days. One thing I noticed was I have quite the different styles of hair on my head. I would like to take your hand through the journey that rivals Narnia, that is my hair styles.
The Knoxville
Let me start off with my classic, and most normal hair cut. Known as the Johnny Knoxville. Little story behind this dew. It makes me look like Johnny Knoxville, specially with aviators. The tight end coach at Western, Coach Moreland has seen this and proceeds to call me Knoxville.
Turnabout 2011, my senior year with Marco n my brother Mike
The Flow
Ah yes…The Flow. I loved repping this dirty raging lettuce hair cut…or uncut, all the time my junior and senior year of high school. This mop was also particularly popular during the lacrosse season. For those of you that don’t know flow in the lax world is very popular and if you can get it to rage outside your bucket (helmet) you automatically play better…no matter WHAT! The raging lettuce looked most cool coming out of a hat because it makes your hair look longer than it is. Flow. In the words of Lil wayne…If you aint runnin with it run from it!
More raging flow with Long Snapper for Michigan State and one of my best friends Matt Giampapa at Vegas last january
The Patrick Kane Mullet
Having raging lettuce lead me to this up dew. Those of you that don’t know I am a hugeeeee Chicago Blackhawks fan. I have been since I was a baby. Literally I had hawks suits. Thanks mom and paw! Any who when the hawks went to the playoffs in 2010 Patrick Kane repped the playoff mullet and they won the cup. I had to have it! So…thanks to my boy Hugo Olivas with the clippers I became Patrick Kane! BOOM! Granted I feel as though I wore this hair cut too long and weeks after our senior year high school playoffs games and most people probably questioned why I would have such a hair cut. But hey, I’m a long snapper. Suck it Redwing fans!! They might be sore because hawks just beat them ;) and whats wrong with a little business in the front and party in the back eh?
The front flip!!
This little number was a fan favorite for years. I would have my buddy Androu De Vera cut all my hair with a two blade and leave a little bit in the front. I rocked this early 2000’s cut like a champ for years. This photo is from my Sophomore year turnabout S/o to my date Sarah Gross for askin me!!
The buzz cut
Yes I know…we have all had them…the buzz cut. I would do this cut more when I was in Junior high but I also did it to the extreme a few times in High school. I am a huge supporter of the St.Baldricks foundation helping to fight children’s cancer. My brother and I both took part of this amazing event.
The Mohawk fade
What I rep these days and have repped for quite some time is the Mohawk fade. When I have these snips on my head…hide yo kids..hide yo wife..boom. This is my favorite dew as of late. Something that I like is to be different and stand out in a crowd. Not a lot of people walking around with a Mohawk on their heads. My last one was given to me by one of our Cornerbacks at Western Tronic Williams. Thanks brah! I must admit now I have more of a fohawk with it because having the whole hawk got out of hand but here is both photos. I have to keep it a little normal now with leaving the back clean cut.
As you can probably tell I like to do a lot of different styles with my dome. Keeping it fresh/real is something that snappers tend to do without a doubt and do very well. I like to stand out in a crowd…but in a good way…not like a you know weird crazy person way…that’s just weird. I keep it classy!
As always feedback is always welcome!
Heres my favorite dew circa 1990's
