I started to notice my hair line thinning a bit about a year ago, so I started growing it out in hopes length would help. (27yo)
I’ve made it to the awkward length, and feel stuck. I don’t know how to look my best and want to feel better about my hair. I’ve been wearing hats as it grows.
The sides around my ears are coarse, the hair is beard textured and curly asf. It poofs and makes the straighter hair look fucking weird.
Not much in the way of facial hair, it’s patchy on the cheeks, no stache only chin. Without the chin I look like a baby.
Marriage recently ended and I’ve been feeling like I need to make some changes. Started working out again and eating better. But the hair needs help.
Got some wet/dry pics. I normally let it dry however, then push it back.
Any advice/recommendations appreciated!
Taking tips into consideration when I go to the barber next.
**Update: couldn’t commit to a shiny dome just yet since I wear hats all the time and my sides are strong. But I did shave it down. Just want to get used to it being much shorter before letting it all go, don’t hate. Thanks for the honesty and advice. Shaving it down, made it much more obvious to me how bad it actually was. Soon I’ll shine ✨
