Title: Hair cuts!
Post by: PyroMenace on Tuesday, September 27, 2011, 02:47:32 AM
So I got my hair cut as some of you may already know. I've been meaning to do it for a little while now. I figured it was time for a change. I had lost over 20 pounds so it figured Id do something with the hair too.

Anyway I'm curious, what hair hats are you all wearing these days? And how long have you been sporting it? Pics are encouraged.

MARINES!! Get a marine cut! It's badass and functional ;D You'll never have to comb your hair or anything.

I've been trimming my own hair for the better part of a year now and it looks presentable. Check my Facebook! :P

I want to get a Marine cut, but I think my head is too oddly shaped.

I have shoulder length hair right now. I had long hair for a few years now (I cut it to shoulder length a few months back). I'm thinking of getting it cut again as I'm tired of managing (I have curly hair).

I can't wait for mine to get long enough to donate.

Long hair isn't nearly as cool as I anticipated.

My hair is sort of like a Marine cut, but a little longer.  The barber messed it up.  I wanted it longer and "texturized" or whatever they call it when they cut it all to uneven lengths.  Instead he cut it really short and uniform.

I used to have really long pretty hair. Like Que's or yours.

Then I was struck by the baldness genes.

Basically, right now, I have a layers cut where my hair is messed up with a touch of wax to cover the center. I don't know how many years this strategy will work.

As long as we never resort to the sleazy combover we'll be fine!

The plan now is if genetic baldness begins to strike then the artificial baldness initiative takes action a.k.a. the "You can't fire me, I QUIT!" defense.

Yea thankfully I have an oval shaped head so the bald look should work for me well.

I have a vague memory from maybe ten years ago of you saying that if you ever start to go bald you're just going to shave it off. The time has come.

haha yes I've been worried about it since forever. I think it is still OK for a few more years. But the time is coming.

Whatever you do, avoid looking like Howie Mandel. I don't know why dude looks like that, but whoever convinced the moron either to shave his head or not buy a wig if he can't grow hair was out of their mind.

I actually think he sports the bald look pretty well.

I had my hair long for a while and got tired of it always being in the way and being hot in the summer. So I went back to the mohawk. Problem with that was I got sick of keeping a supply of paste to stand it up on end, and I couldn't lean back on anything without crushing it.

So I took the hair clippers with a short attachment and did my own hair. I might prefer something less plain, but for now it's just a short self-buzz. I love that it's zero maintenance, and it takes no time to wash it.

Yea that looks pretty good, though the soul patch does not.

I think the key to making bald work on a white guy is a beard:

Most other ethnicities can make a beard work, but I think white guys have to work for it.
