Rockin a taper fade/pompadour look. Thankfully my hairline's still intact and won't be going home anytime soon
I think you're talking about this particular hairstyle,
Ube
We called it "GQ" or "Kimpee - from Kimpee De Leon, son of Pinoy comedian/actor/musician Joey De Leon" back in the Philippines. Pair that with the go-to Barber's Cut (kinda like a taper low fade)
Nothing beats a $2 haircut w/ a massage and barber shop talk
Used to rock that hairstyle hard back when I was a kid cuz that's when the boyband era became popular at that time so that's like our OBJ type of hairstyle back then
Had a "semi-kalbo" cut for quite some time when I moved to the States since I couldn't find a proper barber but I looked like a Kirkland Signature Eddie Huang so I had to switch it up. Some of my Hispanic friends were able to hook me up with a great barber and it's been peachy ever since.
