I think I’m to the point where I have to decide how to cut my hair next. It’s gotten long on top, but also on the sides and back. The advantage of the really short haircut is that scalp shows through all over my head and the sides look like the top. When my hair is long on the sides and back, the top looks really thin. I think I should have my sides and back clipper-cut. I think that would make the top look a little better. But there is great danger that I will look like a Q-Tip head from the early nineties. And I would look like an old Q-Tip head.
So my next decision is how to get it done. I could have Denis try it, but if something goes wrong, it will have been a friend who did it, not a stranger. I could go to a hair-cutting place, but I’m not sure how I would describe what I want.
I’m starting to falter here. I’m trying to stay excited about a different hairstyle, but it’s weird and fraught with indecision. Fashion is so emotionally costly…
First of all – HA! Hippie! Second, could you take in the picture of the first Alton Brown pose? Then the stylist could see your ultimate goal and help you reach it. Third of all – Double HA! It curls!
Did you ever break your nose?
No, I’ve never broken anything, actually. But I did have a bloody nose once, when I tried to do that thing where someone gets on his hands and knees and another someone pushes a third someone over the first someone. While I was on my hands and knees, Todd Taylor put his foot back for balance and kicked me in the face. It was the only time my nose has bled.
I’m with Lauren, not on the Ha ha part, but I think you should take in the photo of Alton Brown to see if the stylist can help you get there.
I also want to concur that hairstyle is emotionally draining.
It’s just not right. No sir, not right at all.
BTW: I’d too like to support Lauren’s advice & the longer hair. It looks really good in person & it all matches fine. And relax, it looks like you’re about to blow a vein there.
I can’t make an informed recommendation with only the right profile. How come we never get the left side??
Wildfires are raging out of control in the west, people are again being flooded out near the Gulf, we haven’t seen measurable rain here in YEARS, it seems – and you’ve got your panty hose in a twist over a few hair follicles?!?!?
Get a grip, man! You’re handsome any way ya’ look at it, and we older women are drawn to balding men anyway, so who really cares, ya’ know?? Just please never grown it long like, say, Meatloaf (ick – what an image…and I just ate!). Thank you…
Oh, grow it long like Meatloaf!!! I would pay some serious cash to see that. If nothing else, rent a wig and take a photo in that. I’ll split my sides giggling!
What about a Billy Ray Cyrus ‘do? That’s always an attractive look…
I like it when you mention using “product” – it cracks me up! If you go back to the old style, you won’t need product and that’s just not right.
