I am really getting hassled to cut my hair. I wondered how you ever managed to get away with keeping yours. What would you suggest to someone who is having a really hard time with parents? By the way, got any pics of your hair when it's dry coming up? Do your folks ever ask you how long you plan to keep it growing? Do they know your "goal"?
A lot of it depends on your age, some of it depends on your resolve and more of it comes down to your personality and how you relate to and get along with people (your family) but just make sure that you aren't doing it to piss anyone off.
I used to get lots of hassles from family about my hair. Finally just
blew, "this is my house, I'll do with my hair what I want. If you
don't like it, the door is over there." After that I got zero
complaints about my hair. But in order for that to work
you have to have your own house.
