| | Michael Jordan shows Phil Jackson how to do soul without a soul patch. |
When it comes to starting fads, Michael Jordan is as successful off the court as he is on it. The "bald" look? Made popular by the follic-ly challenged MJ. Baggy shorts? The Fab Five were just trying to be like Mike. At the '92 Olympics, Jordan's goatee sparked a summer craze.
Hair Jordan has done it again: His look for the fall -- a patch of hair at the end of his chin -- will
become the facial-hair expression on both the NBA circuit, in college hoops and at your local Y game.
Make no mistake: The soul patch has been out for more
than a year, so shave under your lip -- for goodness'
sake, you look like a fool -- but keep that razor away from your chin. For more on the cutting edge, check out the list below:
