Figured this was a good place to ask since we have a disproportionately male heavy userbase. Saw a man on reddit talk about how they had five that month! Seems extreme to me. I get two or three a year. |

This is a prog website which means half of everyone here once had and/or still does have hair down to their nipples or up to their ceiling fan. Haircuts?

I get a haircut about once a month, but my hair grows ridiculously fast and is very thick. ------------- https://dreamwindow.bandcamp.com/releases" rel="nofollow - My Music

I haven't had a haircut in over 20 years, and no, I'm not bald. ------------- What? |

when really young I had long hair.. who didn't. After the military I found I liked short hair.. much easier to manage and much harder for one to grab your hair in a barfight (used to be a bouncer in quite a rough bar). Since my brawling days are pretty much over.. I've finally managed to win Raff over who stopped complaining about my long hair and lack of haircuts about 6 months ago. I love my ponytail. What sucks though is the big ass bald spot on top of my head  . So bad that a friend actually was able to cut the number of cuts and scabs (7 as of Thursday) I have from work and knocking my head against ceiling beams at work.------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

eight to ten sounds about right for me. I just cut it when it starts to feel long and annoying. ------------- "Hey there, Dog Man, now I drink from your bowl." |

I haven't had a haircut since I retired in 2006. I always wear it in a pony tail.

5 to 7 sounds about right. I get it cut short let it grow for about two months then repeat... -------------

probably smart.. I should have waited another few years until I retire. Since explosions are drawn to me as bees to honey. I had one a couple of years ago that got me good and burned off the hair off the side of my head, along with an eyebrow. (thankfully Raff hadn't come here yet  . I never did tell her about that and since it was short it regrew quickly)I shudder what to think it would do to my flowing locks now.. then again at least I am spending the next 4 months crawling around in a bacteria filled stagnant lake under a complex of apartment buildings. Fun fun.. but no chance of getting blow up. ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

^ I was a Sheet Metal Worker and spent the first nineteen years on commercial job sites where accidents will get you if you're not careful. Fortunately I spent my last ten years as an estimator so that was a cakewalk compared to the field. I retired at fifty six but really could have put in several more years but my boss was such a d*ck I just couldn't stand to be around him anymore.

good for you man. I figured you had a job like that. Accidents will get us as well, but I think a certain sense of fatalism is involved with us. If it happens it happens. I survived an arc flash explosion a couple of years ago by the skin my teeth.. a couple of inches difference to my right and my face would have been melted off.. and I would have damn well HOPED that I hadn't lived through it. point was.. no warning.. no fault.. was a complete act of a God in hurry to have a few beers and swap war stories with me. I cheated him once.. I doubt I will a second time. What can you do... ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

2 - 3 per year, which is not really enough, but I don't like to bother with it more often than that. For those of you who "never" get a haircut, how do you keep your bangs out of your eyes!? ------------- -- Frank Swarbrick Belief is not Truth. |

just the wife.. and only when I have had my hair cut  . I don't think Raff likes it, but I told her, it is either this or young 6' ft blonds with big tits or a damned motorcycle.

I shave my head once a week. Before my years in the Marine Corps I had hair down near my shoulders and even tried a beard a couple times, but thanks to the Swedish blood my hair was like white cotton candy, the beard was red, and my moustache was dark brown. Looked like a damn clown, especially wearing poofy pastel shirts and Steppin' Out baggies in the 80s. Going bald was kind of a blessing. ------------- "Peace is the only battle worth waging."

I don't let it grow out as much as I used to. Probably around two times and I do it myself. My hair and beard are really amenable to self maintenance. Generally I do it when it takes too long to dry it in the mornings. heheheh ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I've been torn for awhile about cutting it all off-- on the one hand it seems it would be so much easier and more comfortable to have it short; and I mean short, like a Cesar cut. But on the other, it means having to keep it that way because when my hair is cut it gets kinda curly, so the 'in between' thing would not be a good look for me. ------------- "Too often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." -- John F.

I can dig that man. I had tried several times to let my hair grow in the last few years out but jesus man... the 'in betwen' thing did not look good on me and lord have mercy did Raff tell me about it. This year we stayed here in the States for the hollidays so no family to see, no weddings to clean up for, and I finally turned a deaf ear to Raff's complaining about how bad a I looked until I emerged from the 'in between' look and saw my sexy quotient, shoot through the roof  ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

5-7 just as a trim up. No point these days with the top. It went invisible with age.

Once every two months, but should be once per month, it grows too damn fast. I wish a buzz cut suited me, I wouldn't have to bother so much with it. ------------- I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place |
