Talk about your hair
 
But not your body hair because that's gross.

What's it look like? What did it look like? What are your plans for it?

I'm currently growing my hair out again. It's a little uneven from my last haircut, but I'm feeling too poor to get it trimmed at the moment. I'm going to let it get to at least shoulder length before I decide quite what to do with it.

Margot June 9th, 2016 8:50 AM

My hair is really thick, dark, & curly. I love my hair short, but I haven't touched it in a little over a year and it's past my shoulders now. I have some highlights from the sun & my last highlights I got that I want gone.

Ideally I'd keep growing it until it's going down my back, but I get really impatient waiting for that to happen. I'm torn between going back to my natural black all over or doing a fun ombre. All I know is that I want crazy lots of curls and that's becoming more of a reality at this point.

Hikamaru June 9th, 2016 8:56 AM

My hair's around shoulder length but I have a fast-growing fringe that tends to be the reason I get a lot of visits to the salon. I do suffer from hormones that make my hair greasy so it's common that I have to shower every day so that it stays clean and doesn't go messy.

I know that feeling. It's nice when it feels clean, but if you miss just one day it makes you look like you don't know what personal hygiene is.

starseed galaxy auticorn June 9th, 2016 9:38 AM

I have shoulder length hair. I keep it at this length because it's easier to care for. I don't have any real plans for it though. I just let it do what it wants. D: I can never do much with it except ponytails and pigtails anyway.

Crystal Berry June 9th, 2016 11:41 AM

My hair is currently a very long and thick but lovely mess that currently reaches down below my waist close to my hips. To keep it looking decent I condition it often, apply an oil mask once a week, wear it up most of the time especially when I'm out in the sun and avoid using any heat on it. My only plans for it really are to get it highlighted, otherwise I'll just get an inch trimmed off every few months to keep my ends looking healthy.

Belinda June 9th, 2016 12:25 PM

I'm trying to get my hair to grow out longer but it's not working, although it is at a decent length. I want to dye it black again because my color is fading but I want something new. I've taken very good care of my hair so I'm willing to do a little damage to go lighter. Hopefully that can happen this summer. Oh and I kind of want extensions. I decided to start brushing my hair more so that's a good sign I really didn't care about doing it before but my hair was getting tangled.

mayunaise June 9th, 2016 12:36 PM

My hair is like a rats nest, currently have it just naturally growing out. When I move away, probs going to relax it and get busy with the curling iron. Erh, like in individual strand if i pull it out reaches shoulder level, so once I actually relax it it should touch the nape of my neck :p

Talon June 9th, 2016 1:04 PM

My hair is shaved on the sides (like .25/.5 inches long), and then comes down to my lips on the front, but I either spike it up in the front and and pull it to the side or sweep it above my eyes, depending on how I'm feeling that day and where I'm going/what I'm doing.

DarkestMidnight June 9th, 2016 3:34 PM

My hair is kinda like this (Idk who this person is, I just grabbed this pic from Google Images):



Eventually though, I want to dye my hair black with a silver highlight somewhere. I think it would look something like this (maybe not as long), but with silver highlights on the front:


Signomi June 10th, 2016 8:04 AM

I'd grown my hair since I was five years old. It's been a running thing with me that people would comment on how long it grew out until I had my first ever hair cut back in September. If anything I'd say it looks a lot healthier now in comparison to the frayed split-end mess it used to be.

smocks June 10th, 2016 6:16 PM

I like my hair long, but not long that it goes to my lower back or as short as to my collarbone. It's dark brown and very fluffy (wavy/curly), arabic hair ftw :D

Ahhhh! Fellow fluffy Arabic hair high five :D Mine is getting pretty long now and it doesn't just get long, it gets super thick! It's growing into a lion's mane haha.

Same!!! My hair's so thick that some hair ties are either dangerous or unable to tame my hair lol. Also when I'm trying to straighten my hair, it goes back to being wavy in an instant !

I'm always so jealous of people that can dye their hair fun colors. I'd have to bleach mine and I'd like to avoid doing that. Have you done other colors before? Dark purple sounds really cool.

killer-curry June 10th, 2016 8:42 PM

My hairs grows like jungle.

Hyzenthlay June 11th, 2016 1:09 AM

My hair is long and a natural mousy brown colour, extending down to my thighs when it's out. It used to be longer but I had it cut to shoulder length when I was about... ten, which I quite regret to be honest. I get my hair from my mum and she has it down to her ankles!

It used to be really thick, and I loved it, even if it did get in massive knots! But ever since my hair was cut it has seriously thinned out and the ends have become dry and scraggly, even when an inch is trimmed off. :( I hate having thinner hair, a lot.

I might cut it again one day, just because when it's shorter it's thicker. Might even add a fringe as well, if I'm feeling adventurous! I don't think I'd ever dye my hair, though; especially not a crazy, unnatural colour. Some can pull it off but... I just can't picture myself like that. xD

pkmin3033 June 11th, 2016 3:36 AM

My hair currently reaches down to a few inches past my shoulders when I have it hanging loose...which I rarely do, because it's a nuisance. It's thick, curly, and annoying. Sometimes I seriously contemplate shaving it all off.

It used to come down to the small of my back, but I had a lot of it cut away just after I graduated University; it was getting unwieldier and I felt like a change. These days I tend to keep it around shoulder length. Long enough to tie back, but not so long it becomes insufferable. It's due another trim, actually.

Caite-chan June 11th, 2016 4:00 AM

I use to have longish hair that was to the middle of my back but then I got it cut off to donate to make wigs. Now I try to keep it a pixie cut but it's less work and keeps my neck cool in the summer.

sh1nyzorua June 11th, 2016 9:58 AM

My hair is at about the middle of my back. This is probably the longest it's ever been. I like having short hair but my hair is wavy/curly and doesn't look too good short >_>

I wanna do something wild, like dye a chunk some crazy colour, but I can't make up my mind.

That's great. I did that a couple of times, too. Really takes the trauma out of getting a really short haircut knowing it's for a cause.

Reunilu June 11th, 2016 11:56 AM

My hair is really dark brown, wavy, thin, a bit of a split end mess no matter when I get a hair cut (because Idk how hair care works at all) and a couple inches below my shoulders. Originally it was a big poofy mess that wouldn't look pretty unless I took a vacation nowhere near a humid city like mine, but then I got a straight hair perm over a year ago and now it's looks like it can take humidity and it's awesome. <3 I'm trying to grow it out a bit, but only so much that it reaches a little under my chest.

Crystal Berry June 11th, 2016 1:54 PM

Oh my gosh I never donated my hair.. I feel guilty about this sometimes, so maybe I will consider donating mine when I decide to chop a large chunk of it off.

I'm probably going to grow it out a few inches more so that it reaches down to around my tailbone / hips, and then I'll get around 20 or so inches chopped off leaving me with like a medium bob cut.. xD I've always wanted to donate my hair but never got around to it. @>@

Gabri June 11th, 2016 3:38 PM

Dark brown, straight, thick, about collarbone length. I'm planning to grow it out until I get tired of it (I want it to go below my armpits at least), at which point I'll just donate it away. But I will never again have it short as in short (as in, the front bangs wouldn't reach past the eyebrows, which is how I used it for my entire life except for the last two years). Makes me look like a dork.

I have been using a conditioner for the last year, so it doesn't get shitty and bent and broken and knotting all over the place. And the results are being pretty pleasant.

I might try it again next year because I try to let my hair grow out during the winter to keep the back of my neck warm.

Ah, my hair is actually a medium brown but I decided against bleaching it for the same reasons. That's why it came out so dark! But honestly, I really love it. I've added more color since my first post, and it's this really nice, subtle (if you can imagine that!) deep violet. Like it looks black normally but when it catches the light you can actually see the purple.

Gosh, I've probably done every color except green and white. I had an.. interesting teenage phase before finally deciding to go natural for a while. This is the first time I've dyed my hair an unnatural color and cut it radically in probably close to a decade! But I admit it's a lot of fun and luckily I'm in a career that accepts side-shaves and purple streaks, lmao.

Nick June 11th, 2016 6:59 PM

I just cut my hair and I hate it and I don't want to leave the house.

The struggle is real and first world over here.

dad June 11th, 2016 7:02 PM

no one ever sees my hair's true form but it's black, kinda poofy and very very curly. i usually always flat iron my hair but i've been wearing it in it's natural state and i'm loving it.

stzy June 13th, 2016 6:48 AM

Usually nappy af but I shaved it a month ago so I could dread it.

Espeonica July 7th, 2016 10:05 PM

I feel like I change my hair color a lot! XD I had brown hair at the beginning of January last year. Then I changed it to red and then blonde and by December I had chocolate brown hair. A few months ago I had blonde/caramel highlights on light brown hair. As of now, I have long hair that reaches my belly button with layers that are of a dark cinnamon red/brown auburn color (:

Diarkia124 July 7th, 2016 10:19 PM

My hair is short: black with a buzz cut. Nothing much to say aside from that.

Dracowyn July 7th, 2016 10:58 PM

My hair is brown, I usually put hairgel in it so it's pointy. With the gel it looks darker than it actually is, more black.

When I had long hair (I once let it grow for over 4 years and it was about half a meter long), it was really wavy. I also wore it in a ponytail.

Cariad July 12th, 2016 6:25 AM

curly & fluffy mess, extremely thick, currently worn just below my shoulders w/o a fringe. i'm not sure what the colour is exactly, kind of a mix of light brown and dark blonde with some faded blonde highlights; hoping to dye it soon! ideally, i'd like a pixie cut, but with how curly my hair is it won't work out.

That sounds pretty similar to my hair and I completely understand, I'd loveto try a short pixie cut too but I just don't see it being compatible with all the curls and fluff.

Lapis July 12th, 2016 8:27 AM

I prefer to keep my hair at least past my shoulders. I look terrible with short hair. I like dying my hair whenever I can afford to but my color choices are limited because of my work. My hair is very thin and flat which makes me sad because curling my hair takes so much effort and t never lasts long. I also have that weird thing that requires me to shower everyday unless I want greasy hair. Ugh.

aurevesque July 12th, 2016 6:54 PM

I must say that my hair is fantastic. I don't do anything to it, and it looks respectable. Go thick, wavy, Asian hair. I usually shampoo and condition with Fructic Garnier and then switch to cheap hotel shampoo, so I can stretch my money and keep my hair soft.
I let my hair grow out every year before getting 10 inches cut off to donate (and get a free haircut in the process.). And that's literally it.

I wish I could dye it, but I'm 1) too fickle to find a color that I like 2) too cheap to buy dye 3) too dumb to figure out how to dye and 4) too late in life to think of dramatic fashion changes. Job interviews...


Also, someone told me that if you have super oily hair, you can put babypowder in your hairline at night and comb it out the next day.
Also, does anyone do the baking soda once a month to get their hair shiny?

Flower July 12th, 2016 9:12 PM

My hair at the current moment is a dark brown (used to be black, but despite the color stating it was "permanent" it came out within two weeks, boo) with some random red/orange/yellow streaks. Before I dyed my hair a blackish-brown it was red to orange, sadly my hair's not long enough yet for any super cool hairstyles (wanted to do black roots, then red -> orange -> yellow, but I don't have enough hair rip).

My hair is also incredibly weak, mostly due to the fact that I bleached it a little too much and have some split ends, but I'm working on babying it back to health by using coconut oil shampoo/conditioner and mom helped trim an inch off a few days back. I've colored my hair just about every color you can think of, the only thing I haven't done is galaxy hair.

I plan to soon (hopefully for my birthday, 8/11, depending on how my hair is) get my hair done pastel pink, with rainbow pastel tips. Primarily pastel green, blue and purple, but I might try to get pastel yellow and orange in there too. It took me a while to decide what I wanted but that's what I want. * y * I actually can't find any reference pictures of the hairstyle but I'll be sure to take pictures once it's done.

Jiggling Jigglypuff July 13th, 2016 6:59 AM

My hair is long, thick, and in the morning can look like a total rats nest. It takes an awful long time in the morning after to my shower to brush it and get it to tame a bit. I should get it cut some, but I feel it is a part of me and every time I seriously think about a haircut I get sad.

I have really oily hair and although I haven't tried baby powder I have tried powder shampoo several times and it honestly doesn't work at all for me. I have to use like a ton of the bottle and it's just more hassle than it's worth for me. It also doesn't really look that good after a few hours.

noa July 13th, 2016 9:44 AM

Ah, my hair has quite a history. Story time! Many of you have seen my hair, I think. It's blonde and down to my shoulders, right? Well in 2011 my trichotillomania (hair pulling disorder) reached a breaking point and I... basically... pulled all my hair out. It was really embarrassing. When I really looked in the mirror I saw how horrible it looked so I basically overcame my disorder with sheer willpower! 5 years later (with some haircuts) it's the length it is now. Because of this, i'm really proud of it and take good care of it. It does have a tendency to get super oily after one day though.

Well, let me know if the powder works! My hairdresser suggested it to my sister as a cheap Asian trick.

What are the benefits of blowdrying your hair after a shower? Even with long hair, I wrapped a towel around it and combed it into a reasonable shape. I don't like the noise or the heat or the power required to do this, but there must be some benefits.

You have dark hair, right? You use the powder the night before? I would use it the day of and while I liked the results, it left my hair looking grey and it was obvious I had used powder. I want to keep this trick, but only if there's a way to use it without looking grey.

My hair doesn't get oily very quickly, but since it's black, it takes on a natural sheen that makes it look oily even when it's not which can be annoying.

As for the blowdrying, I have curly hair so I don't do it because it'll just massively frizz it up. However, it's supposed to be a quicker way to style your hair without having to wait for it to air dry is my understanding.

Juno July 13th, 2016 11:28 PM

I've been cutting my own hair since I was 13 - before that my mom used to trim it for me, but I was at that age where I wanted an "edgier" haircut and begged my mom to let me get it professionally cut and dyed - I absolutely hated what they did (I don't know if I just happened to go to a bad salon or I didn't communicate what I wanted clearly), so since then I just refused to go back to a salon and started cutting my hair myself.

It started with just trimming my own bangs, but gradually I got better at it and braver, so I started experimenting with different lengths and layers. I wore my hair pretty long in high school (usually no shorter than mid-back), and I liked short, choppy layers throughout it, but over the years I've grown to prefer more even, gradual layers, mid-length hair over long and grew out my side-swept bangs.

The most recent haircut I gave myself, I actually messed up for the first time in a really long time - it was late that night but I had been wanting a haircut for a while at that point (and I had a few weddings to go to in the days following), so against my better judgement I started cutting my hair at like 12am and got really tired and impatient after a while - started rushing through it and accidentally cut a layer way too short. I spent a lot of the next day trying to find ways to hide it (curling my hair, tying it back, etc.) but came to the conclusion it would just be a lot easier if I cut the rest of my hair short to match that part instead of trying to hide the unevenness. So I chopped the rest of my hair off.

I have literally never had my hair this short since I was maybe 5? Took a few days to get used to, but I have to say I'm pretty proud of myself and it doesn't look too bad - just look a lot younger, imo. :P

Spoiler: Before & After

MadHatter62 July 14th, 2016 5:44 AM

My hair is short, black with a couple of grey strands with a small grey spot on the back of my head that I had since I was born.

I think you're supposed to let it sit through the night and then shower it out. I don't know, I can ask her when I get another hair cut, but she has dark hair too, so whatever she does must work. Well, if your hair isn't oily, I wouldn't recommend it. I have black hair as well, but I don't have problems with an oily sheen. I don't have any suggestions for it, unfortunately!
I have dry hair, so I have the opposite problem. My friend who has extremely coarse hair only uses conditioner and I guess it has worked for her.

Hikamaru July 14th, 2016 10:55 PM

I just got my hair cut again, more of a layered cut while still remaining around the same length as I usually do, and my usual fringe trim. I have a fringe that grows goddamn fast hahahaha

Syndrome July 15th, 2016 9:26 PM

My hair is black, and it's really thick and curly if I don't comb it. It's kinda long for a male I guess, and I have it styled into a blowout fade most of the time. I'm really letting it grow out simply because because haircuts are cheaper when you only need a trim, lol.

Splishy Splashy July 17th, 2016 6:33 PM

My hair is pretty straight forward. It's long(but not too long and unmanageable), it is dark brown, and unless I curl it it is straight as an arrow.

youngster_joey July 19th, 2016 6:56 PM

It needs to be cut, but I'm too lazy to go to the barber. Usually I get the sides cut short and the top medium. When I want to look presentable I spike it up, but usually I just wear a hat.

Lady Grimdour July 21st, 2016 2:14 AM

Thick. Like, bomb-ass, life-of-its-own thick.

It's hard to maintain.

Pebbles July 21st, 2016 1:15 PM

if it wasn't so toxic and thus bad for your health to dye hair constantly....
i would do it all the time
and go wild
especially with pink and purple
and maybe a bit of blue too

because last time i did it myself, the toxic shit stunk so bad coming out of my hair after being done, i had serious headaches for a week or so because of it.
and getting headaches like big time is not even the worse that them toxics can cause :|

EC July 21st, 2016 2:18 PM

Brown hair. Short. All I do aside from washing it is brush it to the sides with my hands so it's not all hanging down in front. Haven't run a comb or brush through it in years, ha.

I bleach my hair whenever I go a different colour, it's fine. Some people are allergic, some aren't. My most intense session was going from black to bright orange in one sitting and my hair was still healthy.

Rocket-Brendon July 23rd, 2016 4:47 PM

doesn't mean it is not bad for you to put bleach on your skull often {XD}

i don't understand how people can say its ok and alright and not damaging at all

as far as i know, for my whole life, it is what everybody says incl hairdresses themselves, IT IS BAD and i have seen so myself what it does to people their hair when they do it so very often
a lot of people their hair literally dies basically and becomes ugly as hell.... well uhuh because what else you do expect if you keep mixing your hair with chemicals

we all know that bleach is heavy stuff and unhealthy chemical ♥♥♥♥
if it wasn't.... then why is it recommended to wear gloves when you work with it etc.

ANYHOW
enough about it
it is clear that a lot of people just don't care and want to dye their hair often anyways
and that doesn't surprise me but thats ok
your life, your body ^_^

now lets talk colors

omg beautiful much
so jealous of these girls

Argenta July 23rd, 2016 9:11 PM

Short and straight to the point. Why are we talking about my hair again?

Margot July 24th, 2016 7:58 AM

Hey guys, let's make sure that we're being civil and not going completely off-topic just because someone doesn't agree with what you think. We want to keep this forum a fun place.

To put this back on track: my hair is almost as long as it's ever been and it's getting really dry as a result. I know I need to trim it so it can get longer, but I don't want to make it shorter! I also want to go back to my natural dark color. All the old highlights I got are coming through and the sun has made my hair look light brown in a lot of places.

Adam Levine August 18th, 2016 3:50 AM

Dandruff is one hell of a problem.

My hair is short, straight, and black. There's this one shampoo I use that makes my hair kinda feel smoother.

Dandruff, though. Agh.

I usually just put hairgel in it in something between a pompadour and a quiff that's a bit spikey.

I used to have thick really long hair several years ago which was really wavey and almost reached my hips when stretched out. But it was really annoying to maintain.

After I cut it I sometimes put it in a short mohawk (without cutting it on the sides) but I stopped doing that a year or two ago.

As for color, my hair is naturally brown, but with hairgel in it it appears black.

^ Literally the only other person I know to existence that shares the same hair type as me. Our hair is a pain in the ass to deal with and style, lmao

I also want to go back to my natural dark color. All the old highlights I got are coming through and the sun has made my hair look light brown in a lot of places.

Hair grows from your roots! If you truly don't want to make it shorter and are just concerned about the dryness, try putting beneficial oils in your hair for its needs.

Through my years of struggle, unwanted haircuts, and bad products, I finally have a pretty strong relationship with my hair and how to take care of it. About three years ago I switched all of my hair/skin products to mostly animal cruelty free/parabens/sulfate free lines. Though right now my issue has been the dryness of my hair as well, because of the summertime and heat. My hair is also naturally curly, and I usually straighten/style it once or twice every week (though not lately, because I use the summer to take care of it while I'm mostly just at home). Usually I try DIY hair treatments/masks twice a month, and make sure it's moisturized weekly. I trim/cut my hair myself when needed, and I also dyed it not too long ago. I don't trust hairdressers...or anyone, if you're not guy tang. :B My hair is my bebe, idc

might as well throw in some photos of it, the lighting wasn't so great in the 2nd one woops


Fire Heart August 20th, 2016 8:47 AM

My hair is long and thick. Currently a sad mix between blonde and ginger. I am getting it thinned out and cut into a super cute shoulder length style soon and I can't wait :3

Aisu August 20th, 2016 4:41 PM

Black, average, people know me for my afro tho.

gimmepie August 21st, 2016 5:06 AM

My hair is a thick, curly dark ginger mass that will consume your soul if you get too close to it. I really need to get it cut lol. It looks like the drawing in my sig does, but scarier.

JOBO August 22nd, 2016 12:13 AM

My hair is dark brown with red highlights throughout (naturally). I'm always asked if I dye my hair or add red highlights. The bad part is the slight red in my hair comes with the other ginger qualities :/ I sunburn pretty much instantly and the strongest sunscreen in the world doesn't do anything for me. lol

Crystal Berry August 29th, 2016 9:27 AM

I have sleek brown hair that's naturally pretty straight. I don't use dye on it, although I would love to get it highlighted some day. My hair also grows pretty fast, so I have to get it cut every few months to keep it manageable lol

OliviaGrey September 9th, 2016 12:17 AM

I want to have long hair since my childhood. Unfortunately, I have thin and shoulder-length hair. My hairdresser advised me to buy hair extensions with natural hair. I received my order yestarday. Now my hair looks incredible. PS I use only natural russian hair 'cos it has the highest quality.

tranceking26 September 9th, 2016 11:11 AM

My hair is dark blonde. When I get a haircut I have a french crop style with number 1 back and sides.

ashsummer January 17th, 2017 2:14 AM

You know, I've never got my hair dyed before. My hair is dark brown, though I'm having an itch to get such a striping effect:

Do you like it ladies and guys?

Taemin January 17th, 2017 6:45 AM

My hair is really short, and almost black. One side of my bangs is longer, but it doesn't quite cover my eye, almost. People say it looks cool and I should keep letting it grow, but I think past a point I'd just wanna 'em out of my face. Lol I'm tryin'.

Mawa January 17th, 2017 5:06 PM

I always dye my hair. It's been 10 years and I stopped this year. I wanted to give a break to my hair, but sadly I wish so bad to dye them again :( I must be strong.. I still have two colors to go (still brown, but my hair is like 3 shade of brown). I might dye it purple in the summer? I don't know, but I don't want to bleach them again. Or if I do, I'll do an ombre so I can cut.

I agree, that sounds cool! :) I had the same hairstyle in my teenage years :) And for now and in general I prefer to keep my hair short, my favourite type of haircuts are the prohibition ones, have look, there are many great examples of them :)
I keep this one and it fit me, my friends and girlfriend find it cool too :)

My hair got dyed a lot. I try to have them my natural color right now as it's been so long since I haven't got my hair brown.
Can never decide if I want them long or short hehe

My hair is black, and really short. Not much I can do with it except cut it once in a while just to keep it clean, or it'll get pretty puffy and messy I suppose.

After that, the greasyness has mellowed out and it's enough to shampoo it like twice a week or so c:

Can you grow an afro? :D:D:D


I used to have looooong straight dark blonde hair down to my butt but cut it all into a "boys cut" 1,5 years ago. Because I wanted to try it. Still growing it back, and so far it's juuust starting to reach the shoulders again. Been evening things out a couple of times along the way, otherwise it would have grown a bit faster I suppose. I want to get long hair again c:

But it'll look disgusting. =w= lmao

Svartulv February 27th, 2017 10:49 AM

Mine's wavy and curly, more than I'd like sometimes. Right now it's on the messy stage where it's not cute-short but it's also not attractively long. Iunno :c sometimes I want to grow it long, other times I want to cut it short again. Send help.

ashsummer April 11th, 2017 9:19 PM

I've been currently rocking bob haircut like this:

It's absolutely easy to maintain and chic at the same time.

Cool_Porygon April 12th, 2017 1:37 AM

Long, dark brown hair.

Limey-chan April 12th, 2017 2:22 AM

It's awful. It's too thick, it grows too quickly and its difficult to style.

But hey, at least I still have hair (for now).

thick hair means you might not go bald... I think, so that's good. mine's pretty much the same and as soon as it's difficult to 'style' (I don't really style it) I just get a haircut

this reminds me I need to get a haircut

One side of my family (dad's side) has a history of premature baldness, I think I may have gotten away with it, since the men who have gone bald all started going bald in their very early 20s.

On the other hand, my mum's side all have good hair. My mum's dad had a full head of thick, jet black hair when he died at 70.

I'm exactly the same, haha, I hope I got the hair from my mum's side

Devil in the Mirror April 12th, 2017 3:02 AM

My hair is short and dyed black. The right side of my head is buzzed down to almost nothing, the left side is buzzed just enough to thin it a bit so it doesn't look weird in conjunction with the right side. In the back it goes down to about the base of my skull and in front on the left it slants down to a point by my ear, just below my eye. If I comb it to the right, though, it looks like a typical "emodo" and makes it a fair bit harder to tell that the sides are significantly shorter. My roots, a kind of dirty blond, are starting to show, so I'll need to dye it again soon.

Sothis April 12th, 2017 7:02 AM

Getting too long, I need a haircut soon!

Meganium April 12th, 2017 8:03 AM

It's funny that every time I go and get a haircut, I get the comment of "WHY ARE YOU CUTTING OFF YOUR HAIR?? YOUR HAIR IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND HEALTHY"

My hair is layered, and pretty long, I do need to get it trimmed soon.

PokéboxHub April 12th, 2017 2:20 PM

It sucks xD

The Voice Inside Your Head April 19th, 2017 9:04 AM

I don't believe pyramid shaped heads can grow hair.

pastelspectre April 19th, 2017 9:21 AM

my hair is short, sort of like a bob cut. it's getting a bit too long for me though so ill probably have to trim it.

Coffee April 19th, 2017 9:30 AM

I got a haircut today and it feels so gooooooood.
No more fluf of hair in front of my eyes all the time :D

Riolu April 19th, 2017 9:45 AM

Short and messy. Very messy.

Boomerang Cutter April 19th, 2017 8:23 PM

I have short black hair, and feel more at ease when it's shorter because of how much easier it is to maintain.

Flowerchild April 19th, 2017 9:04 PM

i have dark brown hair, it's medium/long on the top and really short on the sides. i'm also probably gonna dye it pink next week! i've had undyed hair for 5 months and I'm tired of it. time to be colourful again.

LilyGardy April 20th, 2017 12:22 AM

Jet black and shoulder length with it curling up a bit at the bottom.

Not sure if I should leave it as it is or go for long hair which I haven't had for a while.

I have never dyed my hair and likely never will until I go grey like my mom.
