Dracula Slick Back — short (above shoulder), straight, wavy hair

Dracula Slick Back

Jet-black hair swept straight back with high-shine pomade, close at the sides, with a sharp widow's peak at the center of the forehead. It is the vampire silhouette from the 1931 film that defined Dracula on screen. Aristocratic, glossy, and a little sinister.

About this look

The Dracula slick back is jet-black hair combed straight back from the forehead with high-shine pomade, smooth and close at the sides, finished with a sharp widow's peak at the center of the hairline. It is the vampire silhouette Bela Lugosi fixed in the public imagination in the 1931 film Dracula, and it has been the shorthand for an elegant vampire ever since.

It flatters oval, heart, and diamond faces — the fully exposed forehead and the point of the widow's peak draw attention to strong cheekbones. Straight hair holds the glossy finish best; wavy hair works with a firmer pomade. The top needs about 3–4 inches of length to comb back flat, which most short-to-medium men's cuts already have.

Medium styling effort — work a strong-hold, high-shine pomade through damp hair, comb it straight back, and smooth the sides. Five to ten minutes. If your hairline has no natural point, draw the widow's peak with a dark brow pencil; temporary black color spray covers lighter hair for the night. Glossy, jet-black, and swept back; the classic vampire in one look.

Styling — comb a medium-length top straight back with strong-hold, high-shine pomade; draw the widow's peak with a dark brow pencil and use temporary black color spray if your hair is lighter.
