how come a lot of people who have flat top haircuts have a line on the top of their heads where the hair appears thinner -- it''''s like a strip going straight down the middle of the top of their hair...i''''ve seen it on military-men...and, others who just have that haircut.

i was wondering if anyone knows a reason for that.

Hi.

A true flattop is not suppose to have a strip of thin hair on the top. This is an obvious mistake performed by the barber.

Funny Story; I live in a med-small town. There is an old barber in town with very shaky hands. You can spot his flattops a mile away because he leaves a perfect circle on top of the head. I always speak up and say "Old man Garner cut your hair, didn't he?" they are astonished that I guessed that right.

He- He

Some people have pointy heads on top...It's real hard to cut a flat top on them.
Flat top on a Point. Hmmm.
