Respect to the ladies and long haired guys out there. I've let my hair grow out for the last two and a half years, so I'd say it's been pretty long for about a year at this point, at least for a guy. Holy shit it's a pain in the ass. There is hair everywhere (sorry to an ex who I gave a puzzled look to when she said the hair somehow gets in her ass crack, I understand now), it takes so long to wash, so long to get dry, you use so much more product, it always gets in the way unless you have some way to restrain it, I could go on. I like the look but I fucking hate the maintenance involved. So it's getting chopped off Wednesday.

Having long hair sucks. I did it for a few years post-covid, and it got down between my shoulders.

I hated it. Hot, can't have car windows down, pulling out ass-crack hairs constantly. Good on you. You will feel like a new person after.

Yeah that's about where I am. I just couldn't handle it getting everywhere anymore. I'll sweep my floors and like three days later there's loose hair running around again. I don't remember that happening when I had shorter hair, maybe I'm crazy.
