Hello all.
As I am on vacation (teachers get some nice vacation time -- even if we put in the hours during the school year to pay for them -- and, since I am off, I haven't been doing the "wet, condition, pat with towel, add defrizzing agent (or extra conditioner), and finger style and shake" routine. Instead, I've simply been tying a bandana underneath the groth at the back and letting the curls sneak out of the holes in the back. I am really liking this style. (Too bad that I can't wear it to teach like this.)
Just thought I'd share.

Hi Shawn. You look really cool wearing the bandana like that! Your beard and bandana look really good together. I also wear bandanas that same way sometimes. If you are interested in getting some affordable, nice bandanas, check here:

Thanks, Aragorn. The link has a whole slew of cool things. I'll peruse more carefully in the morning.
I appreciate your comments,

Hey Shawn... looks cool! It pairs well with your beard. Every now and then I think about getting a bandana and trying it out. Only one way to see what it looks like on me... ;)

When you do try it, post a pic or two and let me see what it looks like with longer hair. (Even with my fairly short hair, I've found less tangles, less wind trouble, less maintenance (heck, if I tighten the knot a bit before bed, I can even sleep with the thing on!)...just make sure to change it regularly so as not to get too much hair oil on your forehead...otherwise you are asking for a breakout, whatever the age.
Thanks for your comments.

Hi Shawn,
I agree with the others - that's a pretty cool look for you. Although you can't wear it to work, you can have it as your weekend look!
Bandannas were a major staple of my wardrobe during the awkward stage for me. Unfortunately I don't have any pics handy right now. I really liked wearing a bandanna, but most people I knew didn't like it. Not sure why... jealousy perhaps? ;)
My new blog (with more pictures)
Thanks, Peter. I think it will be my weekend wear, at least untnil my hair is a tad more user friendly.

Very cool look indeed. I agree with the other posts in that it looks great with the beard. Good for the weekends even when school is back in session, and I bet it will be really nice this summer.

Looking cool Mr Crow!
Very trendy, Shawn. I like it! I'm not really the bandana type personally, but to each his own. =)

great!!I think the bandana style suits you...are you allowed to wear bandanas at work?
Thanks, Cerebral.
Unfortunately, unless it is a 'silly hat day' or something there is no head wear allowed in school for either teachers or students...(though I often see girls fetting away with bandanas as a hair styling implement...maybe once it gets long enough, I'll see if I can use that card.)
