Shape-Up. I don't style my hair, a barber does once a month.

I have a fauxhawk of sorts (it would probably be more accurate to describe it as a 'frohawk'), though I'm fairly certain that I'm about to start over with something new. One of the more annoying things about being on a campus of this size (~350 students) is that individuals are assimilated at a rather expedited rate, as evidenced by the outbreak of mohawks and fauxhawks within the last month or so. I distinctly remember being one of two people with that hairstyle before this. Oh well, individuality, like all jokes, shouldn't be taken too seriously anyway.

I'm considering the possibilty of dreadlocks now, though I'm not entirely sold on whether or not I'd look like a cunt with them or not. Only a precious few manage to avoid that. Other than that, I'm pretty conflicted. Wearing my hair short is interminably dull, and I've never been partial to rocking an afro. And, finally, I'm still not convinced that any black male should ever, ever straighten their hair. In my experience, black hair just seems to be too coarse and tightly coiled to suspend this state for very long. This may not stop me from trying again.

@Intellect

I know what you mean intellect. I think your hair would look good if it was just cut and lined up nicely. The thing is that shit kinda boring over time. I can see your trying to switch things up a bit.

I never quite understood Fauxhawks. I personally wouldn't do it and I agree that most people look kinda "extra" when they have their hair like that. It's kind of a weird style but I do also think that black or hispanic people look less subtle with their hair like that (depends though).

Mm, pretty much 2 ways,

Curly!



Or Straight!



My natural hair is kind of wavy, just a bit unruly and frizzy sometimes. I also have tooonnnes of it. I generally straighten it with the straightener, which also doubles as a curler which i do if I can't be bothered washing my hair or it's a special occasion. (For some reason curling makes it look less oily)

I probably spend too much time on my hair sometimes, but I have become a bit of a hair perfectionist since having such crappy hair as a kid and being teased for it :/

Nice, I have a thing for girls with long hair.

Man, when you straighten it you can't even see the ends in the picture. It's pretty crazy to see when you curl it it's way higher. It must be pretty damn thick too.

I think I would even able to get a firm grip if...

I always had a longer style of hair. I kept it cut in layers and I just made sure my forehead was free of hair. Later I cutted my hair and I worked out a lot better than the long stuff. In my opinion it was too short and after it grew for a month I was happy with it. So I usually cut my hair to 2/3 cm and trie to comb it to the front. at the end I just put it up a bit and make sure it doesn't go in my eyes. I use gel, mouche and spray for this, for anyone interested. Just cheap stuff though.

Edit: Serenity I really like your curled hair.

I got dreadlocks two years ago, that was like the smartest I've ever done. Seriously, go ahead and do it if you can.

I have an afro. It's really quite annoying to control sometimes, but it looks awesome when I get it right.

Well, I like to change, but I keep my hair kind of long. It's kind of annoying having to do it every morning, but I flat iron it and then use smoothness serum and some wax to hold it in place.

it also makes her look a lot smaller, just look at all the extra space around her head in the second picture compared to the first. it's pretty crazy.

also Intellectualdiot i would refer to that style as a "Mr T," especially when combined with the beard

Curling does make it look a lot shorter, but those photos are a bit old. They could have been taken at different times, though i don't think they were that far apart.

At the moment my hair is a little shorter and a lot blonder :O

Also thanks for the nice comments :) It's so good being told I have nice hair now.. as apposed to boof head or flea bag =_=, eugh, kids suck!

The awesome thing about my hair is that the style completely changes depending on how much time passes between when I get out of the shower and when I brush it. (most likely has to do with how awesomely thick my hair is, combined with the fact that I only get it cut every other month)

Unfortunatley it changes back to the same style by the end of the day. Fortunatley that style is the style that I like best.
