Haircut, but what kind!?
Folks, I need some advice. I am after a nice goffic haircut.
Initially, I let my hair grow out so I could have enough length to do something cool with it. Therefore; I haven't had a haircut since probably mid 2007. But I haven’t formulated an idea of what to do with my hair. I can’t decide. It is so long and thick it is obstructing my vision, and getting in my way. When I wear one of the hats I always wear, it is not very neat or tidy with all the hair. I am going for a haircut, but I don't want to fuck this up and get something I will regret. My ideas suck when it comes to hair. So I could just tell you the things I am after and I hope I can get some suggestions in on what to ask for. I don't know what to tell the barber. I'd like it to be nice and clean up the back. Have some length on the top for a hawk, But enough length so I can back comb it some times. I think Malice said to shave off the sides. Well, that is a little too vague. That one that fellow Malice has is real good and that is the one I want, but he is real cryptic about it. Any ideas? I snapped some pics tonight so you can see what I have. http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/j...n/IMG_0575.jpg http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/j...n/IMG_0566.jpg http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/j...n/IMG_0570.jpg I know, you will probably say, "just get one that looks good to you". But the problem is, I don't have a good idea and I don't want to make mistake and fuck all that progress up. Thanks in advance for the help. |
Get a Mohawk :D

Telling you to shave off your sides isn't being cryptic, it's quite literally all you have to do to get a mohawk haircut. Just look at a picture of a hawk you like, and shave the same sections off your own head. DONE.

You are NEVER allowed to get a mohawk. It will make your head look too long, and you will be sad. I promise. I recommend something like Robert Smith. Get it cut choppy, and backcomb it.
But my opinion doesn't matter that much. I recommend you read this. http://www.visual-makeover.com/face.htm |
Guh. Don't you ever condition/brush that rat nest? It honestly looks like you take no care of your hair. Long hair on you wouldn't be as terrible if you would just take care of it, perhaps straighten it or neatly tie it back.
I also don't understand why so many guys complain their hair is always in their faces. Girls pull off long hair without much difficulty, it should be no different for a male. And again, if you're having difficulty, that's what hair ties are for if you don't want to lop it off. Just, please, make it look as if you TRIED to take care of it. |
Your hair'd look a lot nicer if you didn't string it all across your face like that. I disagree with maggot and suggest a deathhawk.

Keep your hair long.
Invest in a hair straightener and de-frizz serum or something. Tie it back or keep it behind your ears and not all over your face. |

Hmmm, would he look good with a little rockabilly pomp?

I adore the image of somebody from the 1920's. |
Tieing it back can look good. Its also very easy to try out and very reversible.
I'd suggest maybe cutting it up to your collar length with a few layers in it. You have quite a long face shape and it can be an idea to keep hair a bit shorter if you have that face type. A good trim might help you be able to manage it a bit better. If you don't like it you can always go shorter. |

Yeah no I've decided you should get a big rockabilly pomp.

um, yeah, you need a good trim. Get the dry ends cut off and treat it like it is the most fragile thing on the planet! Don't overwash it, don't over heat style it, and don't undercondition it. No one wants to see someone with a rats nest. I know, I just got my almost shoulder length hair cut into a short chin length bob because I killed it with hair dye and heat awhile back and no matter what I did I couldn't repair the dry ends so off they went. Hair is fragile, and it should be treated like it.

I instantly like you because you mentioned the 1920's, but seriously if thats the style you want try looking up men from that time and alter the style yourself so it fits better with your "elegant goth" image... other wise I would have to go with the recomendation by Maggot for hair like Robert Smith.

I think you could just simply maintain your long hair. Nowadays, Having a hair that long is a dream to some.
