Haircut...

[Phalanx]

...So I usually keep my hair pretty long right? Not like GIRL long, but for a guy and all, talkin' fringe between my mouth and cheek kinda long.
I usually only get it cut when something's annoying me, like if it gets TOO long, or the back/sides get to the point where theyre solid enough to make the surrounding area very hot.
So, it's time for a haircut today.

I really hate the whole process, I do. Whether it's a guy or you get the added bonus of a chick with some nice titties, I'm still just not with it.
I hate sitting there feeling obligated to make nice...if they talk, I'm like...fuck.
As well as, so few of them understand the concept of a guy saying, hey, I'd like to keep it pretty long, don't cut too much off - but they always do. Always. No matter what you tell 'em.
Then with the product...I don't use a damn thing in my hair outside of shampoo, conditioner and the occasional Henna or coconut oil exposure for good health...I don't wear my hair gelled/moussed or whatever 'cos I don't need to...looks fine as is, straight as all hell and falls how I like it.
But they ALWAYS gotta assume you want some shit in your hair. Don't like it.
Then there's the hair on the neck bit...I mean seriously, how long have people been cutting hair that there's NOT technology that stops you from getting itchy fucking stubbly shavings all down your back?
It's crazy.
...and I always walk out thinking that "yeah, it's ok, but they took too damn much off, and it could be better". Never once have I liked a haircut.

...For these reasons, I'm not going to enjoy today.

it's just hair

chop it all off every once and a while, it's liberating.

I shaved my head a few days ago - it was really long...couldn't be happier

[newb]

God has been taking mine.......I guess you could say, God is my barber. He takes it when i'm sleeping....leaves some on the pillow....or when i'm in the shower he likes to gently rip it out and spread it around.



he gets no tips:mad:

Although I love the feel of (after the trauma) having a shaved head...especially in the shower, it's awesome...however, being in a pretty multicultural town, and being a tanky-built, VERY pale white guy...I think it kinda gives the wrong impression.

He? You'd think this would lean god towards the female gender...ha
Nah, no hair problems over this way, kinda grows too fast in all honesty. I always think it's just a lil' funnt when I walk outta there with more hair'n most guys walk in with...they must find my actions confusing.

I don't have that problem.

I simply lift off my wig and there is a shiny, bald dome!

Fast & simple! Lol!

I keep it short and simple. I cant do the shaved thing, feels weird. I dont actually look like Michael Berryman, but I sure felt like I did. That and I couldnt help thinking everyone thought I was a skinhead.

I like being just fuzzy.

[hellfire1]

The complete opposite happens with me. First off, having some unknown person run their fingers through my hair has always been a very strange feeling to me. Don't like it all compared to some people I know. Secondly, when I ask for them to just cut it real short, they simply refuse. "Oh we'll just cut the tips". No... I want it cut off. For some reason, they always take it upon them to leave my hair long... as if they were taking away some of my femininity in cutting it. :p

[AUSTIN316426808]

I'm chopping mine off soon. No one believes me cause it's been long for awhile now, but I fully plan on doing so. Now seems as good a time as any.

[Phalanx]

Itchy, and yeah...as I thought, not long enough.
Next time I'm just gonna bring a ruler.

You should do a G.I. Jane, just to see how they act.


On a side note, I always had my hair short, up until about 8th grade, then I decided to grow it out to see how I liked it, and found that it suits me alot. So now when it gets too long.... like about now... I cut it to just above shoulder length. I haven't cut it in about a year and a half(I cut it right the summer before last, for a girl, which I'm never going to do again) and now its down to below my shoulders. And my grandmother, who is a really old school country type, says I look like a faggot. She's just old so I let it slide.

Or better yet, bring a picture. Do you have a picture of you with a cut you really liked? If so, bring it with you. We hairdressers are visual learners, give us a visual and we will most likely give you what you want. If you explain what you want we may visualize it differently that you do. Also, just ask your stylist not to put any product in your hair if that's how you roll.

As for tha itchy bits of hair, it's hard to avoid. They can put a little paper strip between your neck and the cape but even then, you have bits of hair on your head still which will fall off after. You could maybe get your hairdresser to wet your hair using a water bottle, cut your hair, and shampoo after it's cut instead of first so it washes off the itchy hair.

I also think people are allergic to their own hair. Seriously. In all the days I've cut hair or been around people cutting hair I've only been itchy when it's my own hair on my neck.

[Marroe]

I always have the same problem with them cutting off too much. Even after I explain to them that people always cut off too much, and show them exactly where I'd like it cut to, it always ends up above the shoulders. I'm just going to grow it back out. I'm actually happier with the shit long and ratty.

I started growing my hair in August 2005. I took good care of it myself and if I was going out I'd straighten it, then tie it back. But in the end, I realised I was the only one I was fooling by saying I liked it. I developed a twitch when I constantly shook my head to the side to get the hair out of my face, even when it wasn't there.

Now, I'm a deep sleeper, always have been. I wake up about 20 mins before I have to leave for school and usually have a bit of homework to do. So doing my hair was a complete nightmare, considering how messed up it got. So in March 2007, for the first time in over a year and a half, I went to a hairdressers and got it cut short. Very short. Not all off, but nearly. And god did it feel good. It was strange at first having such a cold neck but overall it was great. I've kept the twitch but it's nearly completely gone. It feels great!

I am resurrecting this thread simply because one of the aspects that has magnified my otherwise miserable and anxiety-ridden day is the fact that I mistakenly PLUCKED MY RIGHT EYEBROW SIGNIFICANTLY THINNER THAN MY LEFT EYEBROW.

Instead of my plans for the sleek mysterious brow of a goddess, perfectly framing the ocean-blue of my eyes, this current hair mishap emphasizes the breadth and slope of my forehead, NOT UNLIKE THAT OF A DROOLING MONGOLOID.

Sure, I COULD pluck my LEFT eyebrow thin... BUT THAT'S HOW I GOT HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE! GAH

[missmacabre]

pencil 'em in? I have to pencil a bit on my left brow cause I have a scar there.

[newb]

try these.....it has a light.

In theory, yes, a compelling solution.

But I am absolutely make-up impaired. And by "impaired" I mean "lazy."

But I might just have to put the 10-minutes aside tomorrow morning to... do it.

:mad:

let them grow wild a free! shave them a few times, then you could play an old englishman in movies, with eyebrows that look like the plumage of tropical birds.

I...... don't understand what that is...

Did a flashlight and tweezers have babies?

WHY COULD THEY NOT BREED IN MY HOME?!

Nope sorry, that answer does not compute. It would contradict the fact that I am always right.:D

Dude. Australians are HILARIOUS.

You know, when they're all like, "Kangaroo kangaroo dingo dingo baby... CRIKEY! Koala Vegimite... Mate!"

I dated an Australian once. He talked like that all the time.
