i just took this picture with my MBP. i just got out of the shower.

i usually have my hair cut really short (buzz cut), but lately i've let it grow. it's about as long as i've ever had it.

you think i should cut it? or let it keep growing? keep in mind that i never 'fix it' or anything, so it gets crazy when i wake up and then go straight to class

EDIT: oh yeah, there are more pictures on my blog. and i can post more if you wish

as long as you don't have anyone you have to report to ie. for work..then screw it...let it go!

i'm 35 and letting mine go. i stay at home with the kids so what do i care what other folks think....

let 'er rip.

if you're a student, it's perfect. a ball cap takes care of any lack of prep time :)

yeah, but the only thing is i might have interviews and job fairs. i've already had one of each this semester.

i also have a long term girlfriend. but i don't think she cares too much either way

is brittany your girlfriend? she's the one who would have the final word. ;)

yeah, she likes either way really i think.
 
just get it neatened up (trim).

I've been shaving my head lately (#2), and it's been a while since it was done, it looks boofy, and helmet style. i think it needs another buzz
 
No!! Long hair all the way!! Grow it out!!

Grow! Just let it grow into a messy wild mop. It looks like you have the kind of hair that makes a great mop do.

That's what I do. I get it cut once in a while and have it wild between.

yeah, it's pretty curly. i only cut it twice last year.

but i don't know, it might be getting out of hand
 
If I were you, I'd have gone mad already...or about to go mad. Occasionally I'll let it get close to that length, but most of the time it's buzzed with no guard or bic'd.
 
Last year I decided to grow out my hair, and it's been growin since. It's the longest I've had in my life. I was goin' to ask what I should do with my hair also... anyways I'd say grow it out. I think it sucks to have your hair cut every other month, when it's short. Around $15 bucks a pop for someone to take an electric razor for 10 mins isn't worth $15 bucks. I don't know why people say long hair is more maintenance, I don't do anything to it besides washin' it. With short hair you have to keep it trim and gel it all the time (that's what I use to do).

yeah i usually cut mine pretty short, but not quite that short

I just got my hair cut yesterday, so I say cut it!

I'd say somewhere between a "trim" and a buzz cut.

thanks. i'm just not sure what i want to do with it

when i shave my head, i do it myself (i get my girlfriend or mom to help a little with the trimmings and stuff in the back) so i don't spend any money on it.

dang, that's short for my standards. I have the ultimate Jewfro! oh yeah!:D :p

remember, i just got out of the shower. maybe i should take a pic now. i just need more light in here.

but yeah, i don't want a huge afro (i do, but i don't think i can stand it that long to get it out there)

i was trying to go for the look of my avator....just isn't working quite right so far....:p :apple:

I get it cut every 4-5 weeks. number 1.5:) Only pay $10
 
I have not cut my hair since May 06. My hair is the longest it has ever been in my life. I get negative comments often, but I don't care right now. I am in college and just wanted to see whats it like to have long hair. I am growing it 10 inches and then donating it to charity. Once I tell people this they are ok with it.
 
If I may suggest…

what you should do is grow a Mullet :D

i should have known someone would suggest that.....;)

buzz it. Short hair is soooo much nicer to have.

yeah it is.....but it has been short my whole life.....
