hey yall...greetings from the South. i'm wondering if anyone here can give me some advice, either a fellow southerner who someone else who knows...i have been growing my hair out for a while and it's just in an awkward stage where it basically doesn't look too great.
i have a thing for what we call here frat boy here. it looks really good in general and chicks dig it big time.
maybe to tell u a bit about my hair. wavy with some real curl in certain parts. anyone remember seeing blue lagoon with brooke shields...maybe when it was re-aired on tv at like 3am haha well her co-star christopher atkins has this kind of hair
see link:
granted he has very thick hair, but i think yall get the idea. any idea on amount of time...any guys out there who know the style i'm referring to...it's mainly popular amongst college age students and how they got there.
any feedback would be nice. thank you.

vanderbilt fratboy here, definitely familiar with the look you're talkin about and its huge in the south. hair grows about 1/2 inch a month, and rumored to grow faster if you use products like coconut oil. from my own experience and that of friends, it'll take 6-8 months growing the hair all around, and a year if you're cutting it too keep it looking somewhat decent in the interim. luckily, when in school, just toss on the hat and you're fine. one friend started in april, and had an awesome head of hair by the time he came back the next semester. good luck!
I am a sorority girl and I can honestly tell you that any man who uses more products in his hair than I do is the subject of much ridicule among everyone I know. Using gel, coconut oil, going to the tanning bed, or doing any other kind of frivolous self beautification techniques won't get you laid. It'll get a lot of girls making fun of you behind your back and being nice to you because a) you have a really cute friend or b) they think you'll buy them drinks. Now I love the "frat boy shag" but not if it looks like you tried. Go natural!
