Who has never had a hair style?

[HuntD]

I’ve had the same short all over hair cut all my life. I do it myself, its quick clean and simple, but it’s also incredibly boring.

I’m a bit fed up of it being so plain although I love the fact its low maintenance, anyway I’ve not cut my hair since February so it’s fairly long and quite rank if I’m honest but it should give a stylist plenty to work with.

Just curious to know if anyone else has never bothered with a hair style? It seems very late in life to be learning what style suits my face shape or how to keep up with the maintenance etc., in fact I've never set foot in a hair salon!

My FiL.

I've known him for a decade and half. I've seen photos of him from his teenage years, 20s, 30s and he's now in his mid-50s; if it wasn't for the tinges of grey and added wrinkles character lines, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

Used to work with a chap who cut his hair once a year (skinhead) and once a year only!

Me, I have also been married to a hairdresser for 15 years.

What is this hair you speak of?

My mum's a hairdresser so until I was about 20 something, she always cut my hair. I eventually decided to go to a hairdresser in town but my friends all slag me - apparently real men go to a barbers and are in and out in minutes lol

I like to be quite imaginative with hairstyles and try different things. For fellow metrosexuals, the following link may be of interest for ideas :-)

Spooky, I'm in exactly the same boat. Must be something in the water. I've been cutting my own hair, number 2 all over, for nearly 20 years but for some reason I just stopped a few months ago. It's now the longest it's ever been. Not really sure why, I'm not at the thinking about style stage yet. It's brought a few comments but I just say I'm flaunting the fact I can still grow a head like a bush when most of my mates are decidedly thin up top now! It's very thick and seems to be growing straight out so I do look a bit bonkers if I get man glitter in it. Wife loves it but it's starting to annoy me on windy days so it'll probably get the chop soon. Once a year sounds perfect! I'm always slightly disturbed by men my age or older with any obvious 'product' on.

My hair sticks out at funny angles if it's short (it won't lie flat at collar length) and faffing around with products is not my cuppa tea so I just grew it out. Every now and again it gets a cut - last cut took 14 inches off it. My only problem with it is how it is a pain in the arse to dry.

Imagine that instead of hair growing out your nose, it sprouted from the top of your head.

To those that have a hair style, do you have to spend time in the morning getting it to loo k right or does it just fall into place?

I have a routine; Starts with a number 2 crewcut, grows out until I look like Emmet Brown, (I'm old enough to be somewhere between grey and bald) , back to a number 2 (wife does it, costs nowt). Before I became old, and grey, and bald, I just let it grow, used to be down to the small of my back, and blond.

[Fishtigua]

Me, I'm posh. I've had 2.

I've had longish and scruffy when I was a teenage Biker.

Now headed into my 50's, shortish and scruffy.

I like my bikes.

My name is Oakey, and I'm ashamed to admit I too am a windswept weirdo.

I am also considering having it styled but there just seems something a bit mincey asking 'make it look like that' whilst pointing at an image of some guy I'll never look like.

I work with a couple of guys who are similar but not quite as extreme.

They both shave their heads with clippers, and then just let it grow into a long shaggy mess for several months, and then get the clippers out again.

They go from looking like shaven headed prisoners at Auschwitz to someone who is homeless, and back again.

I just don't understand it if I'm honest, they both have good heads of hair and yet choose to look like complete scruffs for the sake of saving, what, £5 for a cheap haircut every 4-5 weeks?

Bizarre.
