Everyone should grow their hair long at least once.
I did just that when I finally accepted I was balding, and in time would become bald. It was glorious! I had a luxuriant mane! I should have been in shampoo or "I can't believe it's not butter" commercials.
I have Fabio hair but a twink physique.
Been looking for better things to call myself other than Twinkio.
Fab (fahb) because you're like Fabio but narrower. Also, you can make puns about how being Fab'd off is a good thing.
Ya lol twinkio ain't great. Hmmm...
Poofio? Pooferrio?
I thought about it.
I have a few unsolved issues.
- Moderately warm weather leads to sweat.
- (unverified) Long hair shouldn't be washed often / it is difficult to wash it and dry it.
- Longer hair on the floor, bedding.
- Obscures vision.
- Flamable.
- Requires daily brushing to prevent knots.
You should still be brushing your short hair daily. Good for the scalp, good for your hair style
<3 cm hair?
I’d say so, yes. Sebum’s great at making your hair glossy without any product, oil spread evenly across your scalp protects your skin, and brushies take like 20 seconds with short hair.
-
Put your hair up, you can also have your hair cut person (whatever they're called) layer your hair. It isn't a big deal, I live in Florida and if I can tolerate it in the middle of summer, you shouldn't have any issues
-
Depends on your hair type and skin. My partner washes her hair once a week, I was mine every other day. If your point of reference is short hair, then yes, it is harder to wash and dry. But it isn't a big deal, even for my ADHD ass.
-
True. And in your laundry and ass crack too. Idk how it gets in my ass crack but it does.
-
Wear your hair up or back when you need it out of your face.
-
Don't set your hair on fire? That's just a problem in general, not even a long hair thing.
-
I brush my hair before I put it up for work and before I go to bed. Takes less than 5 minutes out of my day. E: I'll also brush it if I'm wearing it down and I want it to look nice while going out. Even with that it's still a miniscule amount of time
I rarely brush mine aside from maybe once a month or so before washing, which I do once a week. I'm not the most active, though. If I have it down when outside with lots of wind or something it might get tangled, but that's a good sign for a trim for me, too
Did long hair below the shoulders for 5ish years. Absolute fucking nightmare. Granted I was/am clinically depressed and severely 80HD so I put off the hair cutting until I thought I should donate it and just kept it for a while. I would fairly often rip out hairs which probably accelerated some hair loss/thining.
All this to say don't do it unless you have a set time limit or length goal.
i tried in my early 20s, then I began balding :(
My wife doesn't get it. I'm in my 40s. I let my hair grow because soon it will be all gone!
It's below my shoulder now, unfortunately curly so it's a huge mess. But it's MINE!
enjoy long hair.
hope your wife doesn't give you too much trouble about it
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt that says “fuck that never again” and have enjoyed my undercut for several years so far
inside you are two wolves.
that's why you are banned from the local zoo
... But are they kissing? 👉🏻 👈🏻
Undercut keeps the wolves happy. Crows are cool but they give shit advice
It's just an incredibly bad look.
Bangs almost always look great. They just need to match the rest of the hairstyle and be the right shape for your face.
They almost always look great except when they don't
I've tried so many times. Got it right once or twice but something usually goes horribly wrong. Ive given up in favor of the mermaid hair cuz it adds insulation when its cold and I'll toss it up in a bun when its hot
I've always wanted to shave my head
do it, its fire, never gets in the way and dries instantly after shower
These last 8ish years every time I experience a significant trauma I cut my hair shorter. I've got from long hair to a short faux hawk. I've only got one more trauma left before I shave my head and I don't know what to do after that
Buzz it, then you get one more trauma before you shave it to the skin!
do it
only one way to check if it fits
I did it in January, no lie.
It doesn't look too bad, to be honest. Feel like more people could get down with it if more people did it
Do it, everyone looks good with one. Seriously.
Sounds crowded in there, are the women okay?
Absolutely not.
women should get pixie cuts because I like looking at them more
Would they be your manic dream girls?
I'm really glad this two wolves joke from the federated timeline 7 years ago is still raging on for some reason
I have this and I'm male.
Get the bangs
Crow wants a hat.
Just grow the bangs really long like Cousin Itt
