Hair Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

Gay men are useless for hair advice because they all think it needs to be short.

So I want some other opinions, if possible.

I want to change my hair to try something new. I've kept it short for a while now, done everything from spike it to make it ****gy to parting it. And I don't really care for it, I end up wearing a cap too often because I don't like it.

So what I'm thinking of going for is something long enough so it can move around and cover the ears, but not too long...Something like Brandon Boyd's:


Although what I'm going for wouldn't be that messy, but still stylishly messy/disheveled.

Here's what it looks like as of a few days ago:

And this is what it looked like a couple months ago when I got it cut. (see attached picture)

So I'm wondering what some people might think would look good. I may get a haircut soon, or may try growing it out. Decisions, decisions...

The problem with the second one is it lasts about a week after a cut and then the hair just doesn't cooperate to do it properly.

Do you maintain your hair at all (i.e. self-cutting in between hair cuts)? If you can learn how to do it without butchering yourself, it gives lasting power to a good style like that.

Self-cutting?

The problem with getting it cut often is it cuts out the highlights, so they need to redone more often too.

Asher... nothing major... but I've gotten into a habit where I just give myself a neat little trim about once a week. It's become routine, just like shaving. I haven't gone for a haircut in close to 9 months. Get a clipper set from target and use the length settings they have. It's great! And every two weeks I have my GF shave around the hairline on my neck. Exploit someone who will do that for you.

I've saved about 200 bucks in the 9 months I haven't gotten a haircut.

I don't know what the summer is like in Calgary, but I always keep mine short. It's just more comfortable. Especially in the nasty, humid Chicago summers.... ICK!

Reading in between the lines, you know which style you prefer already, after that it's just a vainity/idleness issue?

I would prefer the long hair, but I'm not sure how it'd work on me. The last time I tried it just got big, but I never got an undercut or put anything in it...

But the in-between stage looks fugly too. :/

Easier to just get it cut I think.

Longer hair, a little bit less spikey. That's what I'd do. I'd also stop dyeing it. I find dyed hair to scream "I wanna be cool!!!".

It sounds as if, like me, you are destined by genes to have short hair. I can't grow hair like Boyd's because it is just too damned thick. The hair poofs out rather than scraggling down, becoming a veritable hair helmet.

Short's sexy anyway. And I agree with monkspider, the first pic of you looks better. The second is just too spikey.

You ever try getting an undercut with long hair to see if it helps?
