JoNnY__Mc Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Right im abit bored of my hair and its getting to the point where its inbetween being long enough to straighten and leave flat and short enough to spike and look good. I'm going to get a hair cut this week but really don't know what I should do with it. I would grow it long but itl take me months and I cba with the inbetween short and long hair state that it's in now, and I don't want a skinhead!Anyone know whats in fashion for 2008?? How do you have your hair cut?What is layering ?Some pictures of popular styles would be helpful, I searched on google and didn't find anything useful.

Tom_ Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) fringes seem pretty big, not neccesarily massive emo ones, and long sides, or burns. averagly short back, experiment abit?That sorta shit.I have fringe down, top messy/spiked, starting to sorta straighten the bottom layer of the fringe to get it abit longer, but keep the top abit messy.Jesus Im so gay.layers are literally layers of hair cut to different lengths. gives a textured look or some shit.

Thought it was time for a hair cut to remove all the split ends, neaten it up abit etc, told the barber exactly what I wanted, I remember telling him not to touch the length of the sides, and what does the f**ker do... cut my sides so that wher just below the top of my ear and made them really thin I think i'm going to have to go with a shorter style now because to grow my sides and that back to the length they were will take months, and I cba having shit hair for the next few months I quite like the look of Sam Sparros hair in the Black and gold video, just shorter fringe, shorter back, spikey and messey on the top and needled sideburns... but I run the risk of looking like a twat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom_ Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 while its sorta growing in, trim it yourself or get a girl to do it, Its not difficult and to be honest its fairly hard to f**k up aslong as they dont just cut it dead straight, then once its like the rightish length, let it grow in abit more, then go to a proper hairdressers like designer type shit, and get them to just trim it up, theyl charge like a million quid for nothing but you wont look a twat.Gel works wonders aswell when hairs in between length just mess it up, I find garnier fructis surf hair (not the wax) is good, if you work it in alot it gives a matted sorta effect, dunno, just doesnt look that bad.my sides are getting down towards my ear lobes now, fringe is near eyebrows un-straigtened so its kinda in the middle but I still get the odd compliment towards the hair.only thing I found when I got my hair cut shorter was a limited choice of styles if i got bored, also when i decided I wanted it longer Its taking forever to grow in.

MadManMike Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) Take TheScientist approach:1) Purchase Clippers2) Fit blade number 13) Get a mirror4) Shave it until you hear no more trimming5) Get family / friend to tell you if you have any longer bits you've missed6) Hoover that shit up7) Shower your head and shoulders to remove loose hairYou're done.5 mins and once clippers are bought, free! No more waiting in hairdressers...EDIT: Beaten to it damn you OBM. Edited April 22, 2008 by TheScientist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoNnY__Mc Posted April 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Haha thats easy enough for you to say... but some reasons why I couldn't pull off a skinhead:- My skin is shit- I have a big forehead- I wouldn't say im particularly good looking, and I fear that by getting a skinhead, it will make my ears look bigger, my nose look pointier etc...- My hair is light brown and imo skinheads look best when dark brown or black- My beard/stubble doesn't grow right, imo skinheads look best with good stubble- Everyone in liverpool has a skinheadBut I might just man up abit and do it...

Token Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 I've decided this year there's quite a large niche in the market for private school girls. So I'm gona have slightly longer messy looking hair an say 'yar' alot. Aim of the game is to get them all pregnant an bring disgrace to their family names. Whoop Whoop!By the way, I'm not actually joking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takes about 5/10 mins depending on how long your hair is, last time mine was about 2.5" long so it got caught up a bit, but I just powered through and it's all good now.

Sorry but it's not cool.A myth, I wash my hair as much as anyone else and chicks DO dig it, plus - it's an instant point of conversation! Although yes I am pretty much unemployable, which is ok since I'm in noooo hurry for a mortgage, least of all in this country! Sorry, but it is cool hahaApprox 1 centimetere per month.Aka, a f**king long time to grow long hair.And half the speed/twice the time for dreads since it grows in knots If I didn't have them my hair would be half way down my back by now Edited April 23, 2008 by Jolfa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadManMike Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Approx 1 centimetere per month.Aka, a f**king long time to grow long hair.Must vary person to person though - mine grows quicker than that... wish it didn't, I hate shaving it so often Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
