Anybody got any thoughts on Long Hair and long dangling earing on
guys? With my hair grown out now, I were a larger variety of earings.
I say go for it. Why can't a guy express himself any way he see's fit
besides it sounds sexy
I have brown wavy hair, to the lower part of my back. I also have both ears, double-pierced - which I really like. I tend to wear larger earrings (like 1.5 to 2 inch silver or gold hoops) in the first holes, and smaller ones in the second. I enjoy the addition of jewelry - I think it accents my hair. For the most part, people don't respond negatively to me at all!

My only problem with wearing danglies, is they get caught in my hair at times. I prefer larger hoops to avoid this problem. I feel hoops accentuate my hair nicely when its down. Usually if I wear it in a pony, I stay with small ones.
I vote for hoops, not too big, but thick.
Kinda gives it that exotic gypsy look.
Long and dangly can overaccentuate the
hair length and make your whole face look
long and skinny like an El Greco painting
subject....
Earrings definitely can add to the
nontraditional look though, and I'm
all or that!
I find that when my hair was longer that it afforded me the opportunity to wear larger hoops and dangles. I really enjoyed that. Now that my hair is shorter, I tend to stay with smaller earrings.
I, too enoy wearing earrings. My hair is waist length and I like
the look of large (3 inch) hoops in the first holes and balls in
the back holes. I would like to try dangles but haven't yet.
Although I usually wear gold, I have also tried some colored metal
or plastic ones that match my clothes.
Has anyone found where to buy larger ones (>3-in), perhaps by mail
or the Web?
Whats with the earings on gay guys is it in the left ear?
For a man what is the right ear for an earing if you don't want to be called GAy left or right.
Supposedly the left ear is supposed to mean that you are straight and the right ear is the gay ear. And according to my dear old mother, both ears supposedly means you are bi-sexual. But these days it really doesn't matter at all, my friend was going to do his right ear just to make a statement, even though he isn't gay. So to be safe, the left ear and both ears don't mean that you're gay, but if it's the right only, you are queer. Gina!
Yeah, I've had an earing in one ear, (left), then eventually got the other one pierced, and always wore these really small very fine hoops.
Now that my hairs longer and still growing, I wear 3/4" silvr hoops very fine. If it's special occasion, like a gathering, Renfest, a night when I'm feeling a little exotic, or in the mood, I'll wear one 1" or bigger. Sometimes much bigger!
I've only received complimets, ane it really is interesting to see what the image people get about me from it. Very artsy/rocker/wild guy type, and I end up getting hit on alot!
Er . . . not that that's a bad thing! :o)

You guys are beyond belief. This board should not be for fantasizers, it should be for serious people. I'll bet you a million, billion, trillion dollars (assuming I had that much) that we will NEVER see pictures of you guys who allegedly have waist length hair and wear long dangly earrings. You are all a bunch of dreamers who are full of baloney. If you disagree, why don't you post pictures?
You, too, are beyond belief. I never said that there were no men with long hair. Rather, I said that waist length hair with long dangly earrings was a bunch of bull. Anyone that claims that is lying, and that's it. If I'm wrong, someone post a picture.
I can see your point - but I do wear them (I live in the Northwest, and it seem the west coast has better culture). I dont post pictures here anymore - too much bizzare email. But if you email above, I could possibly send them direct.
Thanks.
I AGREE !!!!! IF YOU ARE GONNA TEASE US.....SHOW US PICS !!!
Sure you have hip length hair, Coyote. And I have six arms. Why don't YOU post a picture?????? If you don't, it will prove you're just a fantasizer like all your friends here.
Why you have a problem with the idea of a man having hair past his
waist, I have no idea. Hair, on men or on women, grows about 1/2 inch
per month, or six inches per year, and on most people has a lifespan
of four to seven years. This means if you don't cut your hair, it can
grow to a length of three-and-a-half feet (from the base of your neck)
and still be within "normal" capabilities. That doesn't include
people with phenomenal hair growth, such as record holders Mata
Jagdamba, Diane Witt and the EIGHTEEN FOOT hair of an 85-year-old
Hmong tribesman (yes, man!) living in northern Thailand. Since this
has been reported by the AP newswire and will be included in the next
edition of the Guiness Book, I imagine your reply will be to the
effect of "oh, please, nobody has hair that long"?
Personally, I have been growing my hair for over six years now, and
since I've noticed little growth in the last half-year, I may have
finally hit its terminal length, at about mid-hip. I do not scan or
upload pictures of me which include my face to the internet for the
same reason I don't use my legal name online: hostile people who live
on conflict, but become increasingly more hostile the more they are
confronted with reason and thought which disputes them.
As such, I include an image which I gave once earler (and actually is
still posted) which is simply that section of my hair which fit on a
flatbed scanner. While you can easily determine for yourself the
length hair would need to be in order to fit like this on a flatbed,
I realise this image will not "prove" anything to you.
Somewhere around here I have a "Cousin Itt" picture of myself, with
my hair brushed forward, completely obscuring my face (my chest, my
belly, my waist...) - if I take the time out of my schedule to head
over to a friend's place to scan it in and upload it, will you finally
admit that you are the main person on this board who is posting
without any basis, and desist in your anonymous naysaying? (since
your alias of "Oh Please" only exists for this activity, I would
imagine you would have to either change your alias or simply leave.)
How say you?
This is a joke, right? This picture of "you" proves nothing. I, too, could buy a wig and put it on a scanner. Your protestations about not wanting to show your face are weak and unpersuasive. If you're so proud about your "hip length" hair after growing it for six years, why not post a picture? You claim possible hostility, but do you wear a bag on your head, or a mask over your face, when you go out of the house to avoid hostility? If you truly have long hair and live around other people, you have, no doubt, gotten over any "hostility" long ago. Why not just post a picture and block your eyes out? A guy with a long hair wig did just this several weeks ago. Until I see a REAL picture, or other piece of evidence, showing that you do, indeed, have the hair you allege you have, I'll remain a total and complete non-believer. My point is, I do not object to you, and others on this site, fantasizing about having long hair, if it's presented as fantasy. I do object to these tales being presented as truth when it is nothing of the sort.
Have you even visited the main site? Here is a picture of myself originally posted in June. The picture was taken in the spring. Meanwhile, my hair has grown another 4 or 5 inches. Why do you find hip-length hair on a man so hard to believe?
If you haven't seen it, you haven't looked completely through this site. If you haven't looked completely through this site, you really don't have any business making claims like this. I'm including here two pictures that include men with hip-length hair.
This picture appeared on the first Samson page, and is still available through the Samson link. The other picture is a preview of the next Samson page, which will be ready by this weekend.
One last unrelated point. When you reply to a message, make your comment on a separate line. Otherwise it's hard to tell where the quote ends and your reply begins.
Did you not read what I wrote, or did you simply choose to not reply
to any of my arguments?
including the relevant text you elected not to...
"Oh Please" wrote:
First, I replied to your incredulous attitude that men do not have
long hair. (You should try browsing the rest of the site,
incidentally):
Your response to this portion was:
I provided a basis for men having long hair, and you continue to
insist that men having long hair is a fantasy. Repeating the same
statements does not even create an argument, much less a dialogue.
Please respond to what I say rather than repeat yourself endlessly.
I then continued with some personal information:
Your reply just repeats what I said:
of course, there is more than enough detail in the image for anyone
with any experience with hair to see that it is natural hair and not
a wig, but that is beside the point. The point is, that I stated an
understanding that this image would prove nothing to you, and your
reply makes it clear you did not read the message.
You also said:
I specified not uploading pictures of my face to the internet, an
environment condusive to anonymous hostility. Anyone I encounter on
the street in public I am on equal grounds with. In case you are not
aware, the basis for weak argument is establishing similarity, then
pretending that "similar" is the same as "identical".
Also, in case you are not aware, when I refer to the anonymous
hostility prevailant on the internet (which I have seen slowly develop
as the online population has increased), the best immediate example I
could possibly provide is you: The only person in this discussion who
refuses to identify themself, contradicts others for no apparent
reason, then becomes defensive and verbally attacks anyone who might
disagree. Do you make this much attempt to be offensive in person?
I doubt it, simply because you have no anonymity.
At any rate, *my* point is that I have asked questions of you, and
provided objective arguments against your statements, and rather than
reply, you simply repeat yourself. So, I will repeat my questions, in
unequivical terms. If you simply rant without answering anything, it
is a statement of the irrelevance of your posts (you have made your
caveat, that you can declare any picture of my hair as a wig, simply
displaying your own inability to tell the difference, the provision
that you must actually respond in an intelligent manner is my caveat):
1) Have you never seen a man with waist-length or longer hair?
2) Are you stating that such length on a man is a fantasy, despite
being well documented, and while uncommon, very present in any major
city in the United States.
At this point, you have either admitted your belief that men do not
have very long hair, or admitted that sufficient men have very long
hair that they would seek each other's company for discussion. Either
way, my next question is:
3) Why are you even on this discussion board?
and finally, I will repeat what I said in my last post to you:
Somewhere I have a picture of myself with my hair brushed forward,
concealing my face (and for that matter, my upper body), which I would
be willing to upload to the internet. I do not own a scanner, and I
do not have copious free time when away from work. If I take the time
to head to a friend's place, where I can have access to a scanner,
will you take the evidence from *me* that *I* have very long hair as
enough proof that several people who regularly post to this board have
very long hair, and desist in your idiotic naysaying?
In other words, if I put up, will you shut up (with regards to
everyone, not just me)?
Where have you been? Have you spent your entire life in one of those tiny rural towns that straddle older freeways, with 2-digit populations, whose major source of revenue is 5-over-on-the-freeway speeding tickets?
One of the reasons it even occurred to me to grow my hair out was because I see so many men in Seattle with great-looking long hair. One day I just decided to try it myself (though I was quite naive about how much time it would take to get long).

So the two men you saw (a) had thinning hair, and (b) didn't take care of their hair. You're saying this is proof that (a) men cannot have hair that is both thick and long, and (b) men with long hair cannot take proper care of it?
Where did you not learn how to think logically?

Greg
hmm... I fail to understand what you have a problem with.
I have seen, and I'm sure you have seen, men with waist-length hair.
If you doubt waist-length hair on men, you're in the wrong place.
Personally, my hair is to mid-hip. (sorry, folks, my ears aren't
pierced :-)
I have seen, and unless you live somewhere along the lines of Iowa or
the Yukon, I'm sure you have seen, men wearing long, dangling
earrings. If you haven't, take a trip to the west coast.
I have seen, and I'm sure you have seen, women with both waist-length
hair and long, dangling earrings. Again, if you haven't, you need to
get out more.
I have yet to see a man with both waist-length hair and long earrings,
however unlike you, I don't deny the possibility of something I've yet
to see.
And considering how many emails I get from people who are obviously
reading this message board but not posting, when I have yet to post a
picture of my face, I can easily understand anyone else's hesitation
in posting a picture of themselves on the web, especially a place
which gets as many hits as this board does.
So I guess my opinion is that this board should be for serious people,
not naysayers who refuse to identify themselves. Any time you want to
make a real bet that you'll never see waist-length hair combined with
long, dangly earrings on a man posted to this board, I can quite
easily go out and get my ears pierced.
I see to many guys are concerned about earings. Is there any web page into men with earrings, or any Hyperboard to discuss this topic?
