Ok so I need a haircut really bad but I just don't want the same ol' boring haircut that I usually get, I need one that doesn't really touch my forehead but doesn't neccessarily stick up all the way (I sound really gay right now). And so I was thinking... maybe I need a James Bond haircut!

Here are some that I kinda liked... maybe ya'll could tell me which one you like best. They are all from Daniel Craig, but some of them are from Layer Cake and some of them are from Casino Royale. All of the CR ones are the same, just from different angles.


Hairstyle No. 1 (Casino Royale)

Hairstyle No. 2 (Layer Cake)

Hairstyle No. 3 (Casino Royale)

Hairstyle No. 4 (Casino Royale)

Hairstyle No. 5 (Casino Royale)

Hairstyle No. 6 (Layer Cake)

I don't why you want out opinions, because they are pretty much the same...........I don't know what's going on.

No 6. The shorter the better. For a more professional look.

Personally, they do look to me to be essentially the same cut. Bear in mind that hair is, shall we say, chaotic. Styling of the same exact cut will vary on any given day. Also bear in mind that there will be minor variations in how the cut is executed each time it is done. Figure that the Casino Royale principal photography took over a month, so I'd presume that Daniel Craig had to get his hair cut more than once during the filming.

That being said, I think that photo 3 shows the cut and style to best effect.

I've been using this cut and style since August, when I finally had enough production stills to communicate what I wanted to the person cutting my hair. Frankly, I like it a great deal and find it very forgiving of my challenged hairline. :)

They are basically the same cut, just with variations of styling, length etc. Best thing to do is go to a decent hairdresser (ie one the cuts the hair of women as well as men :) ) spend some dosh :P and take the pictures with you. Tell them to make you look like that (hair wise :P ) and a good stylist will give you your version of the cut. It cant be identical, you will have a different hair line, different thickness of hair etc - but they should be able to give you a version that works for you.

They are the same picture but some pics just kinda look different than the other.

I got my haircut today and it looks similar to No. 2, but it will probably be more similar to No. 3 once my bangs grow out a little more.

Yeah, there's a wonderful thing where you adopt your own style and you become "cool" through wearing it well instead of copying others. I believe it's called individuality.

While I commend everyone for finding their own style, in my own case, I adopted the DC CR hairstyle simply because it made better use of hairline limitations than the style I had previously used. I would have been perfectly happy to figure such a style out all on my own; but, I'm not fool enough to reject something because of not invented here syndrome. :)

My hair actually is alot like DC's. I have that M shaped hairline and callick in the back... if I comb my hair over to the right a little bit it looks just like his!

Funnily enough, my hair is very close to Mads Mikkelsen, or more to the point Le Chiffre's. It is the same colour, length and I part it to the side. If I go out somewhere and use gel to keep the part it looks near identical to how Le Chiffre has his hair in CR.

My hair never goes where its told, so going shorter and letting it stand up at times (almost always at the back!) is a nice change. According to my kids on the way home from CR, my cut looks like DC's and is mighty easy to care for.

You'll get pretty close to DC's if you tell them to use clippers: #3 (winter) or #2 (other 3 seasons) on the sides and #6 or #7 on the top, depending on how it behaves.

#3 on top doesn't leave much to get a comb through, does it? On the other hand, my hair cut is 3 weeks old and the top is too long now. So a little shorter on top might be a good thing!

^ Yeah it is really short on top. Wish it were a little longer. The sides are perfect though!

Yes, considerably!

Next time tell them to use #6 on top or you'll make one of theirtear ducts bleed. Still easy to live with, but long enough to get it going in one direction with a comb/brush.

Well, you certainly haven't made the wrong choice... I was torn between 3 and 5 for a while... I know nothing about guy's haircuts simply because I'm a girl and yup, do post a picture when you can! :)
