Hair today - Gone tomorrow

Well, gone today, really. I went to get my haircut today, as I'd been considering. Mostly, I was just tired of dealing with it, and felt like a change. My hair is now roughly 15" shorter than it was. I do plan on sending the castoff to Locks of Love.



Before: Front


Before: Back


Before: Ponytail


Before: Braid


After: Back


After: Side

OH! You look very handsome! Wow! all nicely shorn and clean cut. Shows off the line of your shoulders...

Well done.

As to your freak flag... maybe it will be a tantalizing secret you can keep or reveal one veil at a time to the female persons you encounter. You can pleasantly surprise them.... give them something to wonder about....

Lookin' good! :-)

What she said :) -H...

Thank you.

Yeah, I have no doubt it isn't really going to change me. I just liked the song. :)

It looks good.

I like it. Very nice. And there are plenty of other ways to fly a freak flag.

I think the short hair suits you better at this point, because somehow the long hair emphasizes balding in a way that short hair doesn't. (Much as I generally love long hair, I can still recognize the occaisions in which is doesn't suit or has come to suit someone less.)

I agree with this comment.

[identity profile] autographedcat.livejournal.com 2008-07-20 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I kinda go back and forth on it, but I decided it was time for a change, and I'm the sort of person who can't pull off the middle. So it's either long or short.

Adorable, as always. *smooch*

You look very handsome!

Very nice!!!! and a great choice of donation.

Figure there's no point lopping off 15" of hair and having it land on the floor. Unfortunately, last time I had this done (back in 2001), LoL either didn't exist or I hadn't yet heard about it.

i think it looks great! - And it seems to be all the rage - Evan took his all off just a few weeks ago.

Looks good. :)

I really really like it :)

*joins in the chorus* I like this haircut on you.

[identity profile] lonestar9.livejournal.com 2008-07-20 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
Wow...that's a pretty dramatic change, but one that worked out well!!! I think the short hair suits you pretty well!!

[identity profile] bardling.livejournal.com 2008-07-20 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Looking good there!
*hug*

You look great! Sometimes a change is needed. *hugs*

I like both styles, and I can definitely relate to "tired of dealing with it."

I'm afraid I cannot properly judge until I've done some experimental head-skritching.

It's a date. :)

(Oh, please, Br'er Fox, don't throw me in that briar patch...)

For what it's worth - I think it suits you, I think it looks very nice, and I think it makes you look younger. And my reaction surprises me a bit, because I really like long hair on guys.

[identity profile] telynor.livejournal.com 2008-07-20 08:15 am (UTC)(link)
You look great. I miss you. Come visit.

[identity profile] autographedcat.livejournal.com 2008-07-20 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Wish I could. I hope to be able to sometime early next year. *hugsnuggle*

[identity profile] shannachie.livejournal.com 2008-07-20 09:23 am (UTC)(link)
You know, it suits you. I like it!

[identity profile] erinwrites.livejournal.com 2008-07-20 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it looks very nice...(she said, echoing the other commenters).

:)

Eek! It's a shorn Rob! (And wow, LJ spellchecker doesn't know what shorn is. It's also flagging LJ and spellchecker, how very meta.)

I like it!

I like it!

I think you look good with it short! Not that I didn't think you looked good before but... well, short now!

[identity profile] myolite.livejournal.com 2008-07-20 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
It's an extremely flattering cut!

[identity profile] sffilk.livejournal.com 2008-07-20 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
It does look good.

I like it! Very stylish. Hopefully easy-care as well.

Holy poo-monkeys on a stick! This is a surprise. Don't get me wrong, hon, it DOES look good. It is just such a surprise. Wonderful choice for what to do with that which is no longer attached to your noggin, btw. I'm just amazed, mostly because I've only ever seen you (in pics or RL) with it long. I guess sometimes one just needs a radical change.

Looks good!

Oh my. Thanks for the pix. I don't promise to _recognize_ you the next time I see you. :-0
