Oscar Blandi, the high-endstylist, charges $100 to $150 for the Bieber, though other stylists in his Madison Avenue salon will do it for $75.  He said that the last time he had sen teen boys so attached to a specific cut was in the mid-1990s, when Keanu Reeves wore his hair short and spiky in "Speed."

His take on the Bieber 'do?  "It's really the old Linda Evangelista lok, the gamine look," Mr. Blandi said. "The only difference is that he wears it pushed to the front."
