The Hair thread

[Ender Rises]

Since the Post you non-music hauls thread has become infected with hair talk, I figure it's time for it's own thread. So there.

My hair is too curly to grow out, so I'm going to a tried and true hairstyle for me: the mohawk. I've done it once before and I've decided to do it again. Pics coming when I get it done.

My hair is long. I fucking hate knots though.

You must look terrible.

Growing it out. It likes to go sideways. And when i wake up, vertical.

I enjoy having longer hair (not past my shoulders). Short hair surely is convenient however, I just don't think I look very good with short hair/

i have a terribly normal haircut.

I have long blonde hair down to my nipples, but gunna dye it black when im no longer ill, and can go to the shops.

As an Eastern European, I have been blessed with straight, dark blond hair, which as of now is a couple inches past my shoulders. I plan to get it down to my lower back and keeping it there.

I have longish hair (to my shoulders). It is a pain in the ass sometimes but I like the way I it looks on me so I doubt I will change it anytime soon.

 

[panzerfaust666]

my hair is just about to my nipples. And I look extremely Polish, if that matters

Brown/straight and sitting here at the moment it's down to my hips.

 

[mutantllama]

I play on growing it down to lower part of my back.

 

[MasterOLightning]

My hair has stopped growing at about a little past my shoulders. It curls a little at the end, but is mostly straight.

For those with long hair:

How long did it take you to grow it that long? I'm looking to grow it to my shoulders, if that gives you what I'm looking for.

 

[Zephyrus]

About a year.

Depends on where you start counting from I guess. My hair is currently like 2 inches past my nipples and that's been growing since the summer of 2004. I had it cut quite short back then because I was about to interview for an internship and wasn't sure they would appreciate my long hair (which was also a mess anyway since I'd repeatedly intervened with scissors while growing it out).

I'm pretty sure for proper long hair (like shoulder length) you're looking at 2 years or so if you start out with short hair. For most people hair grows at around 15 cm (6 inches) or so a year I think. The worst part is that you look like a tool for atleast part of that time period when your hair is inbetween short and proper long hair. That is why the first time I grew it out I kept messing with it. I don't recommend doing that too much though. Best to just put up with it while it looks dumb. It pays off in the long run.

All I do nowadays is ocasionally trim the very end (mainly to get rid of split ends) and that's it.
