A little advice for a guy...

Hi. I was just looking for a little help on how to get my hair to look like a certain picture I have.

This is what I look like now: http://www.geocities.com/o0takeshi0o/craig1.jpg

And I wanted to get my hair to look something like this: http://www.geocities.com/o0takeshi0o/tcm0016.jpg

How would I go about doing this? How long should my hair be and what products should I use? Should I use a certain type of shampoo to get my hair to the right texture?

Thanks for your help.
