I've seen so many people complain about being in the awkward stage then they post a pic and their hair looks fine! I'd say about 95% of the awkward stage pics I have seen look really good! Me, I've been growing about 8 1/2 months from a buzz and my hair is so frizzy and wavy, i figure in about 2-3 months it's barely going to start getting in my eyes!! At 8 1/2 months I see all these people posting pics of their hair down past their nose!! Man I hate my hair, but whatcha gonna do?? What sucks is that my awkward stage is soooo much longer! AHH!!! And the worst part is I have to be so incredibly careful with it! I can't even run my hand through my hair b/c it will just "frizz up" and stay like that. You know how when people run their hands through their hair it falls back down? well mine doesnt! Anyone here gone through the awkward stage with hair like this?
Yup. Hang in there. It will get better!
hey i know what your going through, my hair is the same way
it's near impossile to keep down and i've tried everything from Spray to gel and it dosent stay down too great,and i've learned the only thing you can really do for now is it grin and bear it and keep reminding yourself of what beatifull hair you will have when it's done growing
and i think that will be worth bearing the awkward stage in the end. i know i'm still new at this infact it's my first time growing my hair long in my life but this is just what i use for inspiration when i feel the urge to trim it!
My hair is wavy, but its loose. So on some months when the ends are right in the middle of a wave, they either curl inward or stick straight out! It is also A LOT longer than it actually looks because of the waves. If I leave it unkempt it frizzes out everywhere but if I brush it, thats when it wants to stick out all over the place. On a really good day, my hair looks exacly like the lead singer for incubus but if I headbang,shake it, run my hand through it or anything, I can say goodbye to all the work that went into making it look acceptable. The only thing getting me through it is thinking about how great its going to be in a few years and that anything is better than short hair.
well it's good to know I'm not the only one. Anyone have any clue what this type of hair ends up looking like once it's long? (like a certain celebrity, or musician or a pic of anoyone?)
my hair is very very very thick. its also pretty curly. mine puffs up when someone touches it or when the wind screws it up. i think im like 1 months. the sides arent grown out about one inch! the top about two inches. its pretty bad and i dont know how long hair looks very curly and thick. o well. so ur not the only one out there.
