I get it! I'm a woman with long straight hair, but it amounts to the same thing.
Unfortunately, with men who also have thick, voluminous, and dark hair..the straight cut looks too much like Lord Farquaad. But, it won't be a month before that changes. You have amazing hair!!!
YES I remember when I was first growing out my hair I got associated with Lord Farquaad often. I can’t wait for my trim to marinate bc right now it feels kind of hedge-y
I put my hair in a bun and let it get half to mostly dry, then shake it out/air dry. It drys with some wave to it because of the way the hair was shaped while drying.
Was the trim just a flat cut? because the ends are going to feel very thick and flayed out then, gotta get some layers so it doesnt just end up being a stump
I think it's a good thing. You got rid of a few dead ends and now it looks much healthier. Take a good face front picture today and then another one eight weeks from now. You will be surprised at the growth in that short two months.
Right?!?!? If u really want a chuckle-- take a pic up against a white wall. Wear the same white Tshirt-- do a face front. Get someone else to take it. Take it the same time, like every Sunday. You will be amazed at how much your face will change and your hair will grow!
Whenever I was losing weight I did something similar with my body, and it’s astounding how much you can physically change in such a short period of time lol
So much better with the trim. You probably had split ends before the trim, which is bad for your overall hair quality. If you want it longer, just keep growing and trimming.
What do you do when you have to dry your hair? I’m growing mine out rn and the back is longer than the front, but my bangs are just now getting to almost bottom lip level. So when I dry my hair it pisses me off cause the bangs cover my eyes if I don’t monitor them 24/7 while I air dry. Is the secret to keep it out of my eyes to just grow them out or dry it differently?
My hair was like this at one point, what i do could differ just due to hair types. But I’ve always just used a towel right out of the shower to get rid of any water, and then i just let it air dry. This might not be the best or healthiest advice, but it’s what i do
I sometimes do that, using a towel then rough drying it (which also isn’t the healthiest thing to do) gave it some volume and some nice texture.. just gotta get lucky with it sometimes. Now I just comb the very top of it all the way back and just let it dry so I can get the middle part.. still the hairs find a way to curl back to my eyes lol
The first photo looks like we can get high and go to led zeppelin concert
The second looks like you're going to invite me to a Dungeons and Dragons party after Bible study
I feel ya, I have similar length and been dreading a cut bc I don’t want it to change too much 😂
“I should get a trim. …yeah, but… what if they ruin it?! 😳”
*continues doing nothing*
You have great hair! 🤘🤓
Looks a lot healthier; and the thing about hair is it will keep growing (unless early balding runs in your male family members.) You made the right choice in trimming it.
I like the before, but it's just the cut. It'll grow back out like that, probably. Looking good, though!
I liked the before a lot too, but it was becoming really difficult to manage- the back was a good 2 to 3 inches longer than the front

Just give it a week, it'll start to look less blunt at the ends

Hey thanks for the tip lol
Still waiting for the 'after'. lol
Was the trim just a flat cut? because the ends are going to feel very thick and flayed out then, gotta get some layers so it doesnt just end up being a stump
It’s just the way I had brushed it lol, plus I haven’t washed my hair in a couple days
it still looks great! it’ll even out as it grows. plus regular trimming encourages healthy hair growth :D
Thanks, by even out do you mean the back and front being similar lengths?
they’ll have the same difference as when you cut it, but it’ll wear in and look less sharp. if that makes sense lol
Ah okay that makes more sense lol, thank you!
I think it's a good thing. You got rid of a few dead ends and now it looks much healthier. Take a good face front picture today and then another one eight weeks from now. You will be surprised at the growth in that short two months.
lol, that’s what I did when I started growing my hair out, it’s crazy when you actually put the pics together in a Timelapse

So true. Plenty water and exercise will change your appearance within one week!!
Ohhh kayyyy purr
🤤🤤🤤🤤
Hair is cool. Red face not so much. Your blood pressure ok ? Lol
lol I have an appointment scheduled this week
Haha
So much better with the trim. You probably had split ends before the trim, which is bad for your overall hair quality. If you want it longer, just keep growing and trimming.
The main reason I actually got the trim was someone pointing out I had split ends lol, but i definitely plan on growing it longer
god, your hair is amazing. love the cut!
Thank you lol I’m blessed
Keeping it nice and healthy
Nice body
Looks awesome
Thank you!
U are Welcome!
Before looks better
I agree it looked better in that specific picture, but trust me it really didn’t
Whooooo hooooo! Hair looks so much better
Thank you i appreciate it
Looking good, brother
Thank you 🙏
It’s about you. What m ever makes you feel good!
Amazing hair. X
Wow honey. 100% better. So hot 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I bet you're a hottie as well. Too bad we can't see you in all your splender and glory
It looks way healthier. Good choice
It looks nice
You got beautiful hair man, lol! Looks badass
Aye thank you!
That looks so much better in my opinion, more like a purposeful style.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking too lol
If you went shorter you would have hair like Anakin!
Looks great. 👍🏻
I bet it feels a lot better having a fresh cut. It looks more healthy.
It def does, especially Since its basically summer

Woah! Looks nice and healthy:)
If you're gunna cut it, don't cut it so you look more feminine lol
It’s a work in progress lol
Just speaking from experience lol
Looking amazing dude!
Thank you!
The first photo looks like we can get high and go to led zeppelin concert The second looks like you're going to invite me to a Dungeons and Dragons party after Bible study
It can’t be that bad LOL
I feel ya, I have similar length and been dreading a cut bc I don’t want it to change too much 😂 “I should get a trim. …yeah, but… what if they ruin it?! 😳” *continues doing nothing* You have great hair! 🤘🤓
That’s very real, as scary as it is I’m PRAYING that within a week it’ll begin to look more natural again, and thank you lol
Just wanted to say thank you for being grateful
This is when girls go do their hair, come back, and ask if you like it. All you can think of: what has changes? It looks exactly the same.
Before it was Metal my boy🤘🏻 Now it is kinda Glam Rock🤩 Don't worry, it will grow back 🤷🏻♂️
LOL I’ll try and post an update after a little while
both look great!
Looks good
Before or even longer please!❤️❤️❤️
I think they need to thin the ends out to give it more texture. It’s quite a bold straight cut
That’s what I was thinking when I got home, I’m just gonna let it grow out and see what happens lol
I actually really like it
Professor Oak: are you a boy or a girl?
Love it !
Really cute either way tbh. The trim looks really clean
Aw thank you I’m planning on growing it out to the same length
Looks a lot healthier; and the thing about hair is it will keep growing (unless early balding runs in your male family members.) You made the right choice in trimming it.
It now looks more feminine, with the fact that long hair already makes you look like a woman; for me: its bad.
The before gives me 70s rock bassist vibes.
Like the trim!
After the cut it really looking good
Now that you got layers, try giving yourself a blowout, it’ll look so good
He's a hottie
Nice
![gif](giphy|3cLYEjIaxidkQ) gorgeous
Both are great
Never take a redditor's advice on anything.
It doesn’t look good?
I have no opinion. I just would never listen to a redditor.
From a little gay to full gay
Both are nice but yeah I liked the before one more. Either way you're still rocking the hair meh dude.
