Well I always had short hair, or some crazy hair do but was never happy with it, Ive always wanted long hair! Im 8 months deep now and really wanted long hair, a bit grungish like kurt cobain... Ive been depressed while growin my hair out, anyways today I had my fringe cut to level with my eye brows, platinum blonde streaks put in my hair and some awesome matt paste for my hair to give it a seprated look which only takes 2 minutes to do ^.^ so now ive finally found a hairstyle i love and even though its not long to a lot of people on here, i like it alot even though ive got a few months growth left to like it completly! Will grow the sides out to top of jaw and keep fringe maybe just past eyes (the paste holds the fringe away from eyes so it doesnt bend in to eyes and poke them out =P i tried this when my fringe was eye length so i know what to expect already ^.^) Heres the hair style...
lol posted the image on top of my message instead of below, sorry for that but i forgot to thank everyone that helped me! and gave me support because id probably still have a boring short hair cut that didnt make me that happy >.< so yeah thanks to everyone on here for support, you guys rock! seriously =)
Hey Adam,
Glad you found the look for you, thats worth a lot right there regardless of how long it is, just to be happy with your hair. A lot of people (like I was) just get the same old cut that they always had because its expected, so theyre not happy and society doesn't really care that much either so nobodys happy :)
Hope you get to feeling less depressed in the months ahead you're still growing into. Check in here and show us when you get it perfect!
Being happy inside at what you have and desire is the most important of all. Glad you did what you did. From what I can see of it it looks great!
Enjoy your "own look!" :-)
Glad to see that you have found a style you like. Not everyone wants waist length hair and so by having your own unique style is a great expression of individuality and freedom.
I hope your Depression subdues in the coming months and that you continue to enjoy your new look hairstyle. I think it looks good and the blonde streaks add a nice touch. The purist could argue that your hair is barely longish and that the streaks will damage your hair and that fringes are feminine, it's your hair so do what makes you happy. Unless you are growing your hair super long a bit of coloring or streaks won't be of any concern for you. The short fringe will keep your hair out of your face and make you hair less awkward. I think it looks great and with a couple of extra inches will look like a nice "mop top surfie guy style". Good luck with your future hair goals.
That's cool you found a hairstyle you actually like. Keep growing it out, if you want to, man.
I know from personal experience that being happy with your hair (as well as the rest of yourself) definitely helps, and you don't get depressed much.
I remember myself about 3 or more years ago, when I was in the last few months of high school, and when I had just graduated. I had short hair, and wanted long hair. I also had a really bad condition called "acne cognoblata". That took the smile off my face for a long time...
But now it's all over with, and I have long hair! It (and many other things) makes me happy, quite literally.
