Hello everyone. It's been a real long time since I've been here...my hair is now long! Anyway...
I'm 19 and am in my second year of college. I usually wear my slightly-longer-then-shoulder-length dark blonde hair (it is straight to a little below my ears before it starts getting wavy) in a ponytail. One night last weekend, I got my hair braided by a few (intoxicated) girls. They did about 8 braids (moderately sized), I believe, in various areas. Everyone there seemed to like it, so I kept them in. Partying later that night, I asked a bunch of my friends how they liked my hair. To my surprise, every single person said they liked it, and said I should keep them in. A (girl) friend called it "sexy". A (guy) friend said that he thought girls would like it, and said to keep them in. I had to take them out after showering, but now have offers from other girls to do my hair.
Do girls really like braided hair on guys? What kind of braids? I had my hair done again, but smaller braids, and I seemed to get less of a response (they were harder to see). Is there any way to keep braids in for a while?
Thanks a lot!
Yeah, familiar stuff happens to me. Whenever the girls are drunk they like to play with my hair. But I try not to let it happen to much, when they arent intoxicated b/c then u become one of the girls, which is not what u want. I dont know how much girls like braids on guys, I think most girls dont even like longhair on guys. But, still braids are cool, I had a girlfriend who would braid my hair and I would end up with anything from a french braid, to a bun , to pigtails, ( in private only of course b/c she liked it, as did I, but I would never let the guys see.)
I wear a bun to work (nearly) every day, and sometimes my wife will weave a braid, when she has time. Buns are a professional way of adding a controlled and subtle intrique into a professional appearance. Don't be ashamed of it, be proud that you are man enough to wear it!
I'm afraid I can't really say wether women like braids on men.
Myself, I love having my ponytail braided and would happily
wear my hair that way most of the time if I could just figure
out how to braid it...
Try it for a while. I bet they look pretty good.
I was thinking of braiding my hair too... just wondering:
1) will having many small for a longer period of time damage my hair in any way?
2) (like the other guy asked) how can I keep them for days/weeks through showering, sleeping, etc.?
My friend-guys once braided my hair so as to make me look like a school guy, I felt stupid, but these gurls thought I looked like Sittin Bull.
