Most of my friends and most locations where I hang out with men, they are all have shaved heads. They give me a bit of grief over it. It's a little off cause they think that it makes me a wimp.
I don't feel that way though. My father is/was a biker and had long hair until he had to have surgery.
Also, my lil sister is getting married and she is not happy with the fact that I have long hair. it's down to my shoulders, longer than in the picture, however the front of the hair can be tucked behind my ear but can't be put in a tail yet.
She says it will look tacky in a Tux.
Any suggestions for a formal evening. I am a Jeans, T-Shirt, Bottle of beer kind of guy...so simple is better.
Thanks

Ps. The pic is me at a company X-mas party...ignore the drunk face.
you could always go for a brushed back look if you can't tie it back
Thats not a bad idea. It's not me who thinks it's tacky...it's my sister. However...Ill play around with it. Thanks again
Hmm, well I guess different people can look at the same thing and have two completely different perspectives. It's always been opinion that long hair and tux's go together like champaign and candle lit dinners. I'm kinda racking my brain trying to think of any long haired guy that I've seen that looked tacky in a tux, I'm drawing a blank. There was that one bald guy that had a (badly done)tatoo all over his caraniumn, but that's a whole nother issue.
Hey Dougboy,
Most of my friends have short hair. I don't believe any of 'em think I'm a wimp. I just can't get them to grow it. If you want my list of "comebacks" just ask.
I think you will look badass in a tux! Let your hair hang down. But if you don't want to piss her off try some gel to slick it back. Have fun at the reception!

Hey Dougboy,your pic looks very cool and you are your way to a fantastic mane.Certainly I hope you stick with the journey and don't listen to the naysayers as what YOU what is most important since it is YOUR hair.As for the wedding your hair is a non issue.Isn't it YOU who your sister wants to attend the event and not just your hair.She needs to get with the program and stop being a dictator.Let use know how the event goes unless you bail on it.CHEERS MY FRIEND.

Hey Doug,
Just think about how unique you must look around a bunch of baldies!
I also had a formal event that I went to a couple of weeks ago. By your description it sounds like your length may be in the neighborhood of mine. I simply pulled as much of my hair as I could into a mid-low tail and tucked the front behind my ears and pinned them with these things called bobby pins. It held for most of the night. At least until everyone was smashed enough not to give a flip about my hair! hahaha. But then again nothing looks cooler than a guy with long hair hanging in a badass suit. Let us know what you come up with. Take care man. -

I rarely give a Care about my hair. (Other than caring for it) I thinhk my hair is sexy and cool!!!
I think Im to much concerned about other peoples thoughs over my own.
I just need to talk with my Sister and let her be cool it.
I think it's wierd though! Only because I don't see what the issue is.
Why do I feel like Im coming out of the closet! And about hair!
