Cut hair to stay up in front with no product (pic)

I'm a guy. I've always had to use a wax or pomade on my thick hair to get the front of it to stay up. To me, it was fine. But, I went to a barbershop in Brazil and the guy cut it in a way that the front would stay up by itself. It wasn't too short or too long, the sides he used a 2, and the top he cut with scissors.

But the front would stay up. I let it grow for a bit, but when I cut it here in America, the stylist cut it like always. The front would stay down, and I have to use a wax or paste to get it up. This is fine, but the other way makes it so it doesn't come down as often even if I use the pomade.

What can I tell my stylist to do, or what can I do at home (without screwing up my hair) to get this to work, without having to fly to Brazil every month to get that cut.

Only image I could find. (Top was shorter, but you get the idea for the front)
