Comb over
From Free net encyclopedia
Image:Combover patent.jpg A comb over is a hairstyle worn by bald or balding men where the hair on one side of the head is grown long and then combed over the bald area.
It is widely considered to be a generally unflattering look, and is not considered to be a legitimate hairstyle by most professional hairdressers. In popular culture, the comb-over is often a cliche associated with a nerd or a man experiencing a mid life crisis.
