Well it’s been 20 yrs since last shaved my head but due to circumstances can’t get barbers new pic on profile

Do you think ppl will be put off by new cut?

What ppl think of it?

I know this is daft to ask but I’m very conscious and nervous as new cut and different style for me

I think the only opinion that counts is yours. I’m sure you look great no matter what.

You'll be fine. You have the right kind of head to pull of the look.

I cut my own hair as well as others. I have 0 back and sides and 2 on top.

It's surprising how quick your hair will grow. I have to cut mine every seven days.

With the zero on my sides, I cut with a Wahl balding and then use a bic to shave it to skin.

Grows back quick enough. It's stubble again after a day.

Embrace your new look OP.

I grew my hair back before Christmas after doing nothing but buzz cuts for 7 years, now back on the buzz cut as it keeps everything neat.

A bit late to do anything about it now. Whatever people's opinions on it you're stuck with it for the time being

I’d suggest some nice Ballagge x with Carmel along your parting and rooots and blond towards the end x

Hell even go a few shades lighter x

I’d recommend a funky bob that will be kind to your hair and easy to maintain x

I’d let your hair grow to Christmas so you will have nice lengths hair to funk up for party hair season x

Haha Ano it’s too late now just shocking

Still look an think wtf but it’s easier now as said I can’t manage to get barbers so thought maybe shave my partner absolutely loved doing it as some sort of ritual haha she thinks it’s cute I dunno

As for previous my hair starts number 6 an grows long an scruffy which with a bit of thinning ppl say looks bad

So yeah short is good but still feels odd having done it

Hope my dead man walk-in look don’t scare off potential meets (lol who am I kiddin I don’t get meets lmfao)

I have had thoughts recently about a change as well.

Mine, however, is shoulder length, as a few will have seen when I sent face pics.

I've had it that long for about 25 years, so it's a scary concept.

Ladies, do you find long hair a turn off?

I shave my hair, half all over. I preferred it when I could style it but it grows that fast it's impractical now.

Don't care what people think of it or me, I like it.

It also helps hide the grey

When I was 25 an had long hair I shaved it not for charity cos back then we didn’t do brave the shave. I missed it at first plus I didn’t have the dedication to grow back haha but short is easy to manage once used to it.

Am at a fluffy stage now we’re to short to style but to long to leave lol
