OKAY YOU GUYS

MAJOR CHANGE UNDERWAY

My hair has gotten fairly long now, meaning roughly 18 cm on the top, and about 6 or 8 in the back and sides.

What I'm considering, is a buzz-cut in the sides, effectively making it a long-ass, wide fauxhawk-ish kind of thing. Ben Tuttle of the Dillinger Escape Plan has something similar.
After it's been cut like this, I can still slick it back like always, but still leave it down and get my headbanging, swhingy hair on.

y/n?!

FYI: I'm doing it regardless, I think, but still. Just laying it out there.

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #1551 on:** 24 Apr 2009, 14:58 »

That is pretty much the exact haircut I have, except I comb it over to the side instead of straight back.

Lummer · « **Reply #1552 on:** 24 Apr 2009, 14:59 »

Yeah, I can do that with it as well, should I fancy.

Is it easy to do yourself if you have a hair trimmer and a steady hand?

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #1553 on:** 24 Apr 2009, 15:22 »

I dunno, I always get my haircut professionally.

This cut especially I think it's worth paying for, because you really want good blending between the shorter sides and the longer top so you can maintain some degree of professionalism.

Or at least I do.

Lummer · « **Reply #1554 on:** 24 Apr 2009, 15:23 »

I'm not really going for blending, to be honest..

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #1555 on:** 24 Apr 2009, 15:24 »

Oh, so you're going to get a mohawk.

Lummer · « **Reply #1556 on:** 24 Apr 2009, 15:26 »

Kind of, yeah, but not like a punk thing. Any recent pic of the aforementioned Ben Tuttle will explain it a lot better.

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #1557 on:** 24 Apr 2009, 15:30 »

According to the internet, there is a dude named ben something, and a dude named jeff tuttle in that band I've never heard of.

Also I guess you are never going to put it up, which makes it a cool haircut I guess, it will probably look pretty cool.

Lummer · « **Reply #1558 on:** 24 Apr 2009, 15:32 »

Ah, yes, Jeff Tuttle, yeah.

The other guy's called Ben Weinman. For some reason I always get those two dudes mixed up, but the again, they're in the same band.

And fuck no, I'll never, ever put it up and if you see me do it kick me in the balls.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #1559 on:** 24 Apr 2009, 23:51 »

That is a Good Haircut. I am jealous of that haircut.

Lummer · « **Reply #1560 on:** 29 Apr 2009, 14:31 »

Thank you for not talking me out of this. I am quite happy with it!

David_Dovey · « **Reply #1561 on:** 30 Apr 2009, 19:48 »

OK I'm pretty sure I'm just gonna steal your haircut dogg. The more I look at it the more it is basically the thing I would cut my hair short for.

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #1562 on:** 02 May 2009, 16:18 »

alright guys, this was my hair a couple of years ago. I bit like Lummer's, only longer on the sides. I'm at a stage where I can go back to this again if I decide to trim my hair properly.

Should I do this? This is the best picture that kinda shows what it looked like.

(remind me not to wear aviators again)

I mean, it's kinda a douchey look, but it's a douchey look done right.

Drill King · « **Reply #1564 on:** 03 May 2009, 09:14 »

I would flirt with you so hard, also, you can actually pull off avs

do it

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #1565 on:** 03 May 2009, 12:34 »

Actually, I think the main thing that picture is telling me is that I need to spend more time at the beach. Salt water in hair makes the best styling stuffs.

I guess I should find someone who's willing to cut my hair then. What are the stances on doing this yourself?

Drill King · « **Reply #1566 on:** 03 May 2009, 13:22 »

Honestly, what does your hair look like now? I am normally a big advocate for going to a stylist but it might be just enough trim here and there to be able to do it yourself.

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #1567 on:** 04 May 2009, 05:41 »

It's pretty much a grown out generic boy 5 pound haircut. Trimming it shouldn't be too much of a problem as long as I don't get too ambitious. Once I get a hold of something with a camera attached to it, I'll post pics.

mbb · « **Reply #1568 on:** 06 May 2009, 19:36 »

So I got bored and had little nervous breakdown with scissors. And this time...I gave myself bangs. And I forgot just how much they shrink up after you cut them.

Am I going to scare cute guys away now?

redglasscurls · « **Reply #1569 on:** 07 May 2009, 03:53 »

They will come and throw themselves at you:) Super adorable bangs, are you kidding me?

mbb · « **Reply #1570 on:** 07 May 2009, 13:19 »

Everyone I've talked to so far has suggested hiding them with headbands...

Ballard · « **Reply #1571 on:** 07 May 2009, 13:22 »

They are not bad at all!

I don't know about headbands but if you prefer hiding them, a nice fedora or bowler hat would look cute.

Unosuke · « **Reply #1572 on:** 09 May 2009, 08:41 »

Was there ever an official name for that guy hairdo where it's all nice and short, but the front is a little longer and it spikes straight up in the front? I always attribute it to the 90's and 3rd wave ska.

A Wet Helmet · « **Reply #1573 on:** 09 May 2009, 08:50 »

I don't know if there is a name, but I often have exactly that cut because the god-forsaken cow licks I have in my hair prevent me from doing much else with it.

Blargh... I wasn't much of a fan of 3rd wave ska, nor the ten-minute swing fad that hit about 97ish. I'm now going to have to grow my hair out and figure out how to do something with it.
_{(or not, which is what is really most likely to happen)}

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #1574 on:** 09 May 2009, 10:07 »

Wait, like the haircut tintin has?

McTaggart · « **Reply #1575 on:** 09 May 2009, 11:25 »

mbb: they're not great, but they don't look bad. Maybe they'd look bad if you weren't pretty anyway. I dunno.

so i am thinking of doing the same thing i've been doing (short on the sides+long on top) but buzzing the sides with maybe a 2 guard on the razor or something. should i go for it?

Yes.

Jens, you don't look like an asshole. You hair looks good, shush.

squawk · « **Reply #1578 on:** 09 May 2009, 12:55 »

JEns is your hair really soft because it always looks soft and I want to touch it.

mbb · « **Reply #1579 on:** 09 May 2009, 13:31 »

Jeans, not punk, no. But, it looks like fun to play with hair. It's not a douchy haircut, it looks nice on you.

Also. I've decided I love my bangs because they look like this in the morning:

redglasscurls · « **Reply #1580 on:** 09 May 2009, 14:02 »

mating plumage!

sean · « **Reply #1581 on:** 09 May 2009, 18:31 »

just shave in a jenshawk again dude.

BrittanyMarie · « **Reply #1582 on:** 09 May 2009, 19:06 »

Jens you have Calvin's haircut. Keep it!

Emaline · « **Reply #1583 on:** 09 May 2009, 19:14 »

mbb: I hate bangs, typically. Well, not hate. But I don't often think regular people can pull them off. However....

ohemgees you are so cute! You look like a very nice girl who I would want to bake me cookies, and take care of me while sick.

Basically, you look like a good person with your bangs.

I told you you look cute with your bangs like that, pushed to the sides.

The other way you had them was remarkably silly.

Ballard · « **Reply #1585 on:** 09 May 2009, 23:41 »

Jens you look good man.

Unosuke- are you referring to the DA?

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #1586 on:** 10 May 2009, 00:12 »

Now I have the theme to duck tales stuck in my head.

SirJuggles · « **Reply #1587 on:** 10 May 2009, 23:58 »

Jens have we established that your hair grows ludicrously fast? Because I'm pretty sure your hair grows ludicrously fast. Also, digging the new style. I'll admit it's probably my favorite that I've seen you with yet.

Should I get Jean Seberg hair?

Metope · « **Reply #1589 on:** 18 May 2009, 18:22 »

Hey, I sort of have that hair right now and I'm pretty tall. I think it suits me.

mbb · « **Reply #1590 on:** 19 May 2009, 00:06 »

I think it's more an issue of face shape. If you have smaller features and a roundish face, it works.

Lines · « **Reply #1591 on:** 19 May 2009, 16:38 »

Well, I already have short hair, that is just a bit shorter. this is what I look like now, so basically it'd just be a couple inchest shorter.

pen · « **Reply #1592 on:** 20 May 2009, 05:28 »

I say go for it. If you hate it, at least it'll grow back to what it is now in only a couple months.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #1593 on:** 20 May 2009, 05:44 »

Pen makes a good point. Doooo eeet

iamiam · « **Reply #1594 on:** 21 May 2009, 17:52 »

i know you have all seen way too much of my ugly mug recently (sorry) but john seems to think that you all need to know about the recent developments concerning my hair

the teddy bear in a leather jacket is there to accentuate the fact that YEAH my fauxhawk is BADASS
