Behind and down in front

From To Kill a Mockingbird:

Jem was rearranging the objects on his dresser. His hair stuck up behind and down in front, and I wondered if it would ever look like a man’s — maybe if he shaved it off and started over, his hair would grow back neatly in place.

What does "behind and down in front" mean?
