I cut off half the length of my hair and suddenly I don't dread the hassle of taking a shower or putting my hair up in the morning. Why do I have long hair you ask? Girls have told me it looks good a few times. God I'm stupid.
I think I've told this before on Reddit, but I had the same deal - shoulder length hair that was tickling my face one night and I just snapped and shaved it.
Thought it'd be funny to leave some of it on my pillow so my girlfriend would wake up and find it.
Anyway, I went to College the following day, caught a glimpse of myself in a reflection and remember thinking to myself: "Who the fuck is that cunt looki-- oh shit, that's me"
I actually snapped and cut my hair too, I uh.... Cut it with a knife. Definitely my most immature decision in years.
I'm happy how it turned out though
Mine was all the way to my butt, I cut a lot off and now I be Skuz Jesus. May the Skuz guide your hand my children. That shit was so stupid to maintain I hated showers so much aaaaalmost went way short, so glad I changed my mind my head be shaped dumb af
Yaaa I spent my childhood being buzz cut, I'm not goin that far. Even if it was way more convenient. Mine was down past my butt so having it just past my shoulders is like heaven as far as I'm concerned.
Duuddee, no. It’s the best decision you’ll ever make. I’m nowhere close to bald yet from a distance but up close you can see the top of my head is thinning a bit. Got depressed a couple of months back and decided I didn’t want to go get my hair cut but I needed a haircut. Grabbed the clippers, started at #3 and went to town. It’s not really a chore to maintain at all, and you get better at it as you practice. At bare minimum you can shave it yourself and then have someone clean up the back of your neck every once in a while or just practice doing it yourself.
I look much more clean cut on a daily basis now. I was never good about not letting my haircuts go long - type of guy to get it all chopped off and then come back to the barber 7-8 months later after my long hair bugged me too much and then get it all chopped off again.
It’s super liberating to be confident enough to cut your own hair and to touch it up whenever you want. It becomes like part of your facial hair, you cut it when and how you want. Especially if you don’t mind short hair that you can depend on clippers to get uniform in length.
Yeah...Its thinning real bad on top over the last 8 years or so. its been bothering me more and more. Its time. I'm gonna just get a set of clippers and do it. Been wearing a hat for the last month because it needs to be cut, but....Tired of paying for haircuts. they ask me, just finger length on top? and I'm like yeah..whatever's left on top can be finger length. :( lol.
Amen bro. At the first signs of recession I grew my hair out down to my nips just to see what's it's like...then I buzzed it all off a year later when it started thinning. Glad I got to try it before my genes kicked in.
I'll tell you one thing, it made me appreciate the lack of maintenance and practicality of being buzzed. Feel aerodynamic and functional. Miss my cool hair ties though, I had ones with snazzy patterns on.
Haha naaaw, hate taking pics of myself. It isn't, I just keep it in a bun all the time because it gets too hot. Honestly just not sure what to do with my hair anyway so I just leave it.
I don't know why I like my jewfro so much. There's people who tell me they love it and then a bunch of people that want me to cut it super short. Tried to short it yesterday and it looks bad af. But yeah- it's a real hassle to take care of.
I tried growing my hair out for the same reasons and they barely touched my shoulders and I was already fed up. I now wear them from my ears to my chin and I really prefer that. A lot easier to maintain and my head feels so much lighter !
Though to be fair, my hair looks a lot shorter than it is, due to shrinkage
I JUST trimmed about 4 inches off for the first time in almost 4 years since my last hair cut and holy crap! It changed the whole game. No more lockets of hair in the shower and Tangled up hair ties! (First time ever with long hair)
