Wait, did you see what I was talking about on SA?
Also, that picture you reposted was sort of cheating, since I had just showered or something, and I have yet yo find any products that would keep it like that. But I like the look, too, especially without glasses making my face look rounder than it is. A little late to consider that, though.
Is it basically the bushy long hair that bugged you? I guess that's fair.
Honestly, I think that's the point I can grow it to before it starts becoming apparent how stupidly curly and uncooperative my hair is. I sincerely envy everyone who doesn't have to put up with this crap.
I missed that, sorry.
Oh, that's actually a good thing, then. I was being a baby.
What were you referring to, then?
SA? Eww.
I rather like that pic too, though I'd wear the scarf with something besides that coat.
Both are nice though.
^^ Oh, you mentioned that they don't allow longer hair at the uni and that, generally, people around you disapprove of longer hair, so I was reffering to that.
Oh, no no nooooooo. I would never go to a school that told me how to wear my hair. That was me bitching about YLLS's apparent sentiment that most men don't look good with short hair.
Aaaah, now I get it.
Seriously, fuck 'em.
It's fine. In fact, this current conversational topic is probably sort of questionable by this forum's rules, which is why I deleted my initial bitchpost. We should probably just not worry about it. I'll probably figure something out to do with my hair tomorrow, and I'll post that then.
EDIT: Apparently both of my parents like it. And my friend said "nice haircut" and I'm not entirely sure if he was being sarcastic. So I'll give it a few days, at the very least.
Like I said in IJBMer Updates, I got my haircut cleaned up a bit by a family friend. She actually gets it, too (her son gets his hair done similarly), so I think that, given time and maintenance, this could turn out in a way besides "terrible". I just probably need to grow it out some more. But at least the lump that was going on in the middle of my head is gone, and there's a sort of blend towards the front.
I ended up combing it into a couple of different things, but here are some of the few that turned out decent pictures. I didn't get things from side/back perspectives because I think it looks fine in those areas, except in spots where it's not the fault of the woman who shaved my hair.
So, I know that sunglasses are for complete douches but the fact is, my eyes are pretty much burning these days so I got some.
Give it to me straight, IJBM. Do i look hideous or just horrible.
Sunglasses . . . are fine as long as you don't wear them inside (except for pictures for the sake of asking how sunglasses look, of course).
I think those look okay. Maybe a little big, which makes them look weird in relation to your eyebrows, but it's not hideous.
If you want someone who's looking like a complete douche at the moment, with or without sunglasses, look no further. I guess while I'm at it, I'll ask how my sunglasses look on me.
Post-haircut, post-shower, post-shave.
How do I look?
Have you used any product on your hair to get it to stay like that? Just curious. I'm sorta surprised, too, since the hair you had before was pretty interesting. It's just too short to really do much with it, at this point, but I think it looks fine.
You look nice, even if your face seems to be a bit too...red.
tell me the truth, are you eating a million carrots a day
Somebody said that I am likely to go bald in the next 3-4 years =/
If that guy somehow turns out to be right, anybody think I'd look good bald?
bulk up and get a Freddie mustache.
^^Was that someone a doctor? Either way I would look at scalp care shampoos or go all "fuck it" and shave your head.
^^^There's a pill for that. There's no way to regrow hair, but preventing hair loss is quite simple.
Get a professional opinion if you're insecure about it: the receding-hairline is a stock taunt.
^^ I'm quite bad at remembering to take pills ^.^;
Yeah, that's a problem. You could always set a daily reminder on your phone or something though.
^ I forget to take pills from those ^.^;
Again, daily reminder on your phone. That will tell you pretty nicely.
At least you guys can take pills. I still can't.
^ Why can't you?
I can't move a whole pill far enough back in my mouth that I can then just swallow it without feeling like I'm going to gag.
You shouldn't have to move it back in your mouth to do it. If it's in your mouth, and you put water in your mouth and swallow the water, the pill will go down with it.
It really doesn't feel like it would work like that; if I try to swallow, my tongue would eventually feel the pill and the process would be halted mid-swallow. Or, I think that's how it's gone so far when I've tried.
I've been given the tip to just have water in my mouth, then pop the pill, tilt my head back, and swallow quickly, but I just . . . can't.
That doesn't make sense. I mean, you eat solid food, right?
