The General Head Hair Thread

[Ryanswannell]

So I noticed that we had a shaving thread but no head hair thread, so I have decided to create one. Here you can discuss how you wear your hair (if you have any at all ) how often you get it cut/maintained, what your styling process is if you have one and anything else that is relevant to hair 👍.

Up until a year ago I would just get my hair cut to about half an inch all over, and that was it, but I then saw Olivier Giroud's (Arsenal striker) Faux hawk style and decided I wanted something like this (granted, he's better looking than me )

My styling process is just simply applying Schwarzkopf iStyling wax, followed by some hairspray. I'm looking into buying a mini hair straightener as my hair get's unruly and curly after about 4 weeks after a cut, but I'm a little embaressed about what others in my house would say as they are perceived as being a slightly feminine item.

So, what about you guys ?

 

[Bopop4]

My "styling process" is that I've let it grow for a while now. and I do nothing to it apart from the normal shower stuff.

And it's even longer now.

 

[MoLiEG]

I have my hair cut every 4, or 5 weeks. 👍


Might try to do something like this on my hair on saturday... Who cares if I get fired for it

I've had it all. Long hair, ridiculously long hair, long wavy hair (natural of course), Jimmy Page long hair (in humid Ohio), short hair, bald head, but right now I have a good ol' professional office type short haircut. There are folks who have never seen me with short hair, and vice versa. It's funny when I show them pictures because they just can't imagine me having drastically different hair than they know.

Right now my hair is really short(Within an inch long). With it being so short it's naturally spiky(Plus I got a little bit. My usual hair is 3 inches long and by the time it gets long enough to touch my eyebrows I usually get it cut down to 1 or 2 inches long every three months(And so much hair on the floor due to my very thick hair). I do not do any special styling except for the normal stuff of combing it down every morning and the usual shampoo+conditioner(2 in 1 bottle) combo.

What's next? Leg hair thread?

Actually, I was thinking of making a pubic hair thread 💡.

 

[Slash]

I need to cut mine. It's just about to my eyes. I've hd hair to almost my bum before though. Got old after a few years.

 

[Skython]

^ Hasn't gotten old for me. Or maybe it's because I'm lazy and don't get it cut. I've been told that my hair is like Ronnie Van Zant's and James LaBrie's, I listen to both Lynyrd Skynyrd and Dream Theater so I guess it fits. In fact, now I think of it, I'm always getting compared to rock musicians... My brother says the way I sing is similar to Geoff Tate, and then there's a few others I can't remember.

Answering with none results in a ban because it means you're probably too young to be here.

Habitually I make it a rule to go to a barbershop periodically every several weeks to have my hair trimmed short - I hate letting it to grow long as it gives me a stuffy feeling especially in summer.

 

[AzNTypeR]

I usually get my hair cut every half term or so, so around every 6 weeks.
Usually, I cut my hair so that I have a half an inch or so fringe.

After the 6 weeks have gone by, my hair would usually be down to the tip of my nose. O_O

(Off-topic, I was talking about my hair today in class. Now I'm talking about it now. Coincidence?)

Ironically enough everyone used to call me rockstar lol

I generally get all of my hairstyles from my favourite Footballers. Currently have a Marco Reus and Mario Gotze colab style.

Getting my haircut tomorrow to look more like Gareth Bale's more recent styles. Been wanting to try the razor lines since they seem to be quite popular in Europe right now.

 

[Ryanswannell]

I wouldn't mind trying a razorline, don't know if I could pull it off though

 

[Brend]

This is what I have basically, minus the highlights and its shorter around the sides.

Ah, the so-called hipster hairstyle

Just kidding, I've got a similar hairstyle, actually. I just tend to wear the sides a little longer and the top a little shorter. Just makes the whole style look a little more conservative - which is pretty much mandatory, given my line of work

I grew up getting my hair cut downtown. I've moved to the suburbs in '99 and still go back to the same place. That being said, I don't get my hair cut very often.

 

[Beeblebrox237]

I think I have some hair on my head.

 

[F1GTR]

I'm currently rocking a Nick Wooster/David Beckham style quiff: http://www.newnownext.com/the-haircut-every-follicly-able-man-should-have-now/08/2012/

I was tired of having a fringe so I just kept the top long and cropped the sides tight. It's been my go-to for about a year now.

I think as long as you look OK with relatively short hair, it shouldn't be so hard to pull off.

How is the haircut hipster? It is classified as an undercut but, it's not an extreme undercut like "hipsters" seem to do.

Your haircut sounds very similar to what I have right now. Kind of a more Mario Gotze style to it.

I knew a Mexican guy who had a haircut like that.

Why does a haircut thread always turn into pictures of soccer players that get paid to look like douchebags?

Is it because people love people looking like douchebags?

As for my haricut, I use an electric hair trimmer with a 7.5mm accesory, and no accesory when cutting my sideburns and to give it a decent shape

 

[PeterJB]

So what we can conclude so far is that everyone on GTP has footballer hair...

Yes. /

Better than a few American Football players in jail for acting like a thug.

Just got my Bale inspired cut, really like it. Would definitely recommend it for non americans.

Until now I tend to go for this kind of style when I get it cut. A little bit Beatles, a little bit Oasis. A lot of the popular current styles never suit me to I just stick to a classic. Seeing as hardly anyone has it anymore, it means I do look a little different at times.

Well I guess they're not actually conscious of their own hairstyle imitating to look like that of footballers... though it does suit their taste for haircut.
