Pompadours Make a Comeback for Oceanside Civilians and Marines
Oceanside residents are embracing classic-era gentlemen's cuts, according to one local barber.

“They get to have a little style with their cuts instead of shaving their head bald,” Gino Nanci of All American Deluxe Barbershop said. “They get to comb it over to the side and pomp it up in the front and have a little style for the day—and look like the classic gentleman.”
Marines make sure the cut—especially the sides—are within regulation, he added.
