To cut, or not to cut?

You should see @swanners for hair styling ideas.
There's a post here somewhere.

 

Here we go.
Reckon this would suit you @Merlin Cat.

 

Go

Then have yours made into a wig to wear when you please.

 

Hair can look so good when it's long but it has drawbacks. Weight, being one, annoyingness being another. Dreads bring other variables into the equasion as well. I found having it cut short, liberating, for about a week then, I realise I look just the same as everyone else, which i'm not so why pretend to be so. Mine still grows and i'm in my late 50's so i'm lucky in that respect. It's long'ish now and i'm trying to resist having it cut if only for not to give the barber twenty quid or whatever it is now, every six to eight weeks.
I feel your pain M.C.

 

The Dusty look, maybe?

 

Can you tease it out to a huge afro? or maybe a dreadhawk (I may have just made that up) otherwise just cut it up to where it wasn't annoying. On the other hand you could go for comfort and practicality, cut it all and buy a T4/T5.

 

Just get half a foot lopped and leave the big decisions for later. When I had mine surgically removed I liked it just as much short but I have two options I can live with... pretty damned short or .. leave it and see what it does. I preferred the latter to an extent but I cant imagine going through the 70s reject stage of growing it again and at my advanced years..... Don't have it too short with the dreads or youll look like sideshow Bob

 

Done what? Pics please.

 

I hope you've kept the offcuts to use as plumber's hemp!

 

Baldylocks?

 

And.............

 

i was gona say if you keep it long but .............................

 

Just cut it in short bits at a time untill you decide enough is enough .

 

Makes you look younger.

 

Mind you don't get whiplash now your head is so much lighter

 

Phew... Not too extreme. Theres a lot of hair going on there!
