Goddamn it BB, that's what the italic tags are for.

Your lips say "no" but your eyes say "yes, please."

Wait, if my eyes can speak, doesn't that mean they are mouths?

Sorry about you not sleeping tonight by the way.

The fact that you are hot and beardy and wearing plaid may be a factor of my liking it.
Whatever.

Man I am totally the same. But the hair looks good too! Hooray for cutting your own hair!

BEARDDDDDDDDDDDDDS!

It looks pretty good! I wish I could cut my own hair, but I am afraid.

guys I cut my own hair

*snip*

did I do good?

The part in the middle of your forehead is a bit weird but you're so handsome I uh.

Let's just say, even as a hairdresser's daughter I wouldn't kick you out of bed for a strange cut.

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #1806 on:** 05 Dec 2009, 10:09 »

Yay beards!

The part in the middle of my forehead is just hair that hangs down from all the rest and never really stays up properly even when I go to a proper hairdresser probably because I have a pretty intense widows peak.

I didn't really cut it, I just shaved the sides really, and didn't touch the other parts. Also, I was on my way to drunk while doing it, so I'm fairly surprised it turned out decent.

calenlass · « **Reply #1807 on:** 06 Dec 2009, 14:16 »

I cut my own hair because otherwise it would cost me upwards of $70 no matter where I went. That is to say, sometimes I get pissed off at it and cut off 3 or 4 inches. No one ever notices.

BrittanyMarie · « **Reply #1808 on:** 06 Dec 2009, 20:57 »

I used to cut my own hair all the time too, when it was curlier. I have the easiest haircut though, plus when I did it I'd just take a sharp knife and run it through, effectively just razoring it so i'd still have a layered look but not with the layers all different lengths. Because it was curly though it didn't really matter much since some curls would sproing up more than others so you wouldn't know if the layers were uneven anyway.

Mohawk?

haha I dont want one of those long spike punk mohawks from the 80s.

something more like this

or the long one

Jace · « **Reply #1813 on:** 07 Dec 2009, 17:34 »

after further review of the play, no. 5 yard penalty, repeat haircut choice.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #1814 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 03:42 »

Everyone should have a mohawk at least once

Jace · « **Reply #1815 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 03:46 »

I had a devilock, not once, but twice. This is a hairstyle no one should have ever. It made Allybee throw up when I mentioned it in meebo.

long spike punk mohawks from the 80s

Six giant liberty spikes, three colors, so long I could just barely touch the tips of them with my fingertips. I slept in a chair rather than a bed to minimize the amount of effort I needed to put into repairing my 'do every morning. Fucking awesome. That and my leather jacket with the Die Die My Darling art on the back and paintings of a donut eating pig in a cop uniform with a billy club and Jesus taking a drug test on the front made me look like the Exploited logo come to life.

For the record, it was also 1987. We kinda knew punk was dead then, but my friends and I were trying really hard to give it CPR.

Good times, yeah.

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #1817 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 05:54 »

I did a mohawk once.

It wasn't a real mohawk. More like a gluehawk.

Taking a shower afterwards was really gross.

Drill King · « **Reply #1818 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 12:55 »

I really want to try and give myself a faux hawk but I simply do not have enough time.

Lines · « **Reply #1819 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 13:01 »

It would be the biggest faux hawk that ever was.

LeeC · « **Reply #1820 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 13:31 »

I am 80% sure I am going to do it, but cant decide on the full mohawk like the bottom pic or the half hawk like the middle.

Ballard · « **Reply #1821 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 22:19 »

On topic:

I got frustrated with my hair recently and chopped it all off with a pair of office scissors and two well-angled mirrors. The result was IMHO not terrible.

But now it's grown out a bit and the failed fauxhawk thing makes my hair look crooked. I usually brush it to the side like this cause it looks dumber when I push it back or comb it down.

I could cut my hair and even it out but I'm considering getting a professional cut. Should I go regular hair or more legit fauxhawk?

pilsner · « **Reply #1822 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 22:22 »

Seriously do you folks not have $10 barbers? I'm trying to ascertain the goal of the cutting your own hair thing. Getting a friend to cut your hair I get. But cutting your own hair, assuming you're not stuck on a desert island, this concept baffles me.

Drill King · « **Reply #1823 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 22:24 »

I have really thick hair, my mother is a hairdresser and told me my whole life that most stylists would have a fit if I came in :c so she taught me to do my own hair and subsequently I do pretty good.

I am not sure about some people, some people it is okay but other people it is really bad and they need to stop doing it and thinking it looks cool.

pilsner · « **Reply #1824 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 22:27 »

My thinking, and I'm not trying to be controversial or anything, is that most people have no idea what they actually look like. Like, most people, when they see a video tape of themselves, are surprised of what they look like. Even with mirrors it's very, very, very difficult to get an idea of what your hair is going to look like to someone else. So why bother?

Ballard · « **Reply #1825 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 22:34 »

I have consistently had trouble communicating to barbers what it is I want. I'm not even sure what I want, to be honest, and "make me look good" doesn't cut it.

So it's easier for me to play it by ear as I'm chopping away and face the consequences of a sort of crooked but more flattering haircut.

I should mention that I'm happier with this haircut than any professional $10-20 haircut I've gotten in a while. And I can't afford a $50 salon cut, even in the unlikely circumstance that they can work with "make me look good" and nothing else, and get it right the first time.

I just want direction.

pilsner · « **Reply #1826 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 22:38 »

Fair enough, I mean the alchemy when you finally do find someone at any price who makes your hair look like you want it to is valuable. I had a good 6 months where I was shaving my head just to make it easier but then some homeless guy said I looked like I was from the future and I had to go back to hair....

BrittanyMarie · « **Reply #1827 on:** 08 Dec 2009, 23:24 »

isn't that sort of a compliment? i think i'd keep it if someone told me that

calenlass · « **Reply #1828 on:** 09 Dec 2009, 01:23 »

Well, I rely on cutting my own hair because I do not appreciate the hassle of trying to find someone who won't just yank a brush through my hair, who will not object to getting it wet first, who won't try and cut like half of each curl out to reduce volume or something stupid like that, who will not think that it is totally okay to razor my hair, and because it is this long:

so basically I can just pull it around and snip it off if it looks split or gross.

I have been considering cutting off like 10 or 12 inches, though. I keep thinking about it and mentioning it from time to time, but I never go through with it because I would want a professional to do it and I cannot afford it.

This pretty much sums up me cutting my own hair. I've been to most cheap barbers here in Edinburgh and tried explaining to them what I want and the only time they got it right was when I said "shave it all off". And I can't afford an expensive barber. Usually I try to get a friend to do it for me, but last time was a pretty spur of the moment thing.

Drill King · « **Reply #1830 on:** 09 Dec 2009, 04:43 »

Katie I think you would do it, it would make it spring up much more and frame your lovely face, as it is, it drags.

Ballard · « **Reply #1831 on:** 09 Dec 2009, 08:48 »

So there is a lot of hair arguing on the previous page and not a lot of advice. What should I do with it?

David_Dovey · « **Reply #1832 on:** 10 Dec 2009, 02:53 »

Just do what you did last time cos it really suits you, dogg.

BrittanyMarie · « **Reply #1833 on:** 10 Dec 2009, 02:54 »

yeah, i think you look better with shorter hair too. you could probably get away with just buzzing it harcore style (but not TOO short)

Lines · « **Reply #1834 on:** 10 Dec 2009, 07:18 »

Gene, I think you should invest in a pair of clippers and keep it short. The clippers will help prevent it from being uneven and you can still keep it a bit longer on the top if you want. One of my friend's boyfriends got himself a pair, looked up how to do it on youtube, and she cut his hair for him and it looks pretty good.

Barmymoo · « **Reply #1840 on:** 28 Jan 2010, 06:30 »

I need to get my hair cut or cut it myself; it's grown too much to look good now. This is the problem I have with hairstyles: before, I could just leave it for three months and it'd be a bit longer. Now I have an actual hair cut I have to get it trimmed every few weeks or I can't see out.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #1841 on:** 30 Jan 2010, 01:58 »

New cut of the hairs:

bonus before, top, oblique, and side.

I think it's an improvement.

BrittanyMarie · « **Reply #1846 on:** 14 Feb 2010, 00:01 »

i like it! it accentuates your cuteness.

It's like Jeremy Irons drove 18 dump trucks into cute fort knox and stole all the cute gold and then elizzybeth had to chase him around New York City but couldn't catch him but then eventually caught up with Jeremy Irons at a motel in Quebec and she shot him from a helicopter and kept all the cute gold for herself and put it in her shampoo & conditioner and lathered it into her hair and BAM that's where we are today.

Elizzybeth · « **Reply #1848 on:** 14 Feb 2010, 11:30 »

Aw, shucks. That might be the most complicated compliment I've ever received... but thanks!
