When was the last time you changed your hairstyle? - Page 3

Happy Monkey · 01-02-2009, 06:03 PM

I stopped getting haircuts in high school, some time in the early nineties.

I cut my own hair when I can see the split ends from a distance. Style? Not so much..

Razzmatazz13 · 01-02-2009, 09:54 PM

Last dramatic change was on the very last day of school 6th grade year, I got over 6 inches cut off...and I did it that day on purpose because I knew my friends would all hate me for it because they were in love with my long hair.

That way, I didn't have to hear about it over the summer.

My hairdresser (who I don't think I'm going to use anymore if I can help it) always bitches that I don't come in to get my hair cut often enough...I let my roots grow till they're several inches long, and only get my hair cut 2-3 times a year. It's frickin crazy expensive, so she can just shhhh.

Hair style - 1987 (went from straight/bangs to parted on the left)
Beard - grew it in 1988; haven't changed since

lol! You got better with age.....now that's something to scream about!

Undertoad · 01-02-2009, 11:44 PM

Oh I'm not screaming, that's my natural expression these days.

the 2nd picture is far more swashbuckling. you're on the right path......the only thing left is accessories. I'm thinking gold hoop earrings and a bandanna to complete the pirate look.

You could embrace it and go to interviews in costume. I would pay extra if my It guy came in in prate garb and was real obnoxious and stuff. ...as long as he was really good at his job.

Don't encourage him, attitude cost him the last job.

How long is 'very' long? 'Cause I hear 'very long' I think of Shannon Dougherty from high school, who hadn't had a hair cut, ever. Hair down to about her thighs. Or I think of my circus-acquaintance, Clara, who had hair to just above her butt. And for a guy, I think of my other circus fried, Eric, who's super-curly hair at one point reached his lower back. If it weren't curly, it probably would've been below his butt.

I knew a Claire who had hair down to her backside.
It was a huge part of who she was, it was almost like a friend of hers rather than part of her. I think she might have talked to it occasionally - well she talked non-stop, so who knows.

Very, very occasionally she would wear it loose. Then she would complain about all the attention she got from men. I sympathised at first - she was dark, petite, ultra-feminine looking (she swore like a sailor and was quite aggressive actually) and I could understand why she resented being pigeon-holed. BUT. After the first few times I began to see through the complaints. When she had her hair loose she acted like a woman in a seventies hair product commercial, flicking it all over the place and shaking her head back and rolling her neck.

She loved the attention it brought. She just wanted to make sure we noticed it too.

She had it cut at around the time we lost contact. To just below shoulder length. I bumped into her in a bar and she was off her face on something and she pinned me into a corner with tears in those big brown eyes because she missed her hair. I saw what she meant though. From extraordinarily long to just average long. Not short enough to make an impact on people who knew her, not long enough to attract strangers. She was diminished.

So I went to the bar to get her a drink and slipped out the side door. Well, I wasn't off my face and wasn't nice enough to sit and listen to her all night!

Toad, you definately improving with age. Despite the silent scream pose, you're pretty damn hot in that second pic.

The cut I want is ironically the cut I sported from about 8th grade till around 2000 when I dreaded it. Here is a pic of my hair from around 1994. That is exactly what I want it cut like... instead of this mess I have now that hasn't been cut or brushed in months... I did however wash it last night.
