Title: Haircut
Post by: Damian on December 11, 2012, 05:23:36 PM
Anybody's opinion on this haircut?
Sadly I can't find this version on a male. Hopefully this isn't too feminine.
Any thoughts?

Males tend to have shorter sides and backs than that in my experience.  But I'm probably biased because I hate the back of my hair being anywhere near that long with a passion, although it does end up being that long quite often because I can hardly ever fit haircuts in around my work and college.

Cool thanks :)
I'm probably going to get what's depicted in the picture check it out, and if it's too girly, take your advice and buzz down the sides and trim the back.

It's hard to tell with this picture. It looks a bit fauxhawk-ish? If so there are a few footballers with similar fauxhawk styles. Like Ronaldo or David Villa.

I'm not sure I'd say it's feminine since it's pretty popular haircut right now among men and women, only difference being women often have the side burns more pointed, I guess you could say. But it's up to you and what you like. If you like the haircut you should get it.

As for second part of your post, I leave my hair in an undercut. Top long in a ponytail, the rest shaved right to 0.

A lot like this:

Very cool, it also looks like the female version has more hair up top and is a bit more limp. I'm happy it turns out to be a more androgynous haircut than I thought it was.
Also that is an awesome haircut :DDD

Yeah if anything seems like the men's fauxhawk just ads a ton more gel (well...Ronaldo is the king of gel so maybe just him lol), and the women's using more hairspray to leave it looking "fluffier"? *shrug* Maybe when you go to get it cut bring a pic with you of the way you'd prefer.

Yeah my brother used to have nearly this same haircut, except he had it shorter in the back and on the sides. He likes the androgynous look. I always thought it looked really good on him.

My opinion is that its an awsome haircut, I would totally have it if it wasnt because im pretty scared of cutting my hair short.

Im also quite terrified, but it's one step closer to becoming more 'normal' :).

Two way Rain,

The style you have chosen reminds me of the style Ellen Degeneres has that I think looks really good.

the reason is because I got a very round and femenine looking face, so whith short hair I tend not to pass or look like im 13 or something, which I hate.

your face seams more to be suitable for shorthair.

In caise you got programs like photoshop you could try to edit a pic of yourself with the hair you would like.

Go for it. I know plenty of asian guys with the same cut, same length. Don't worry about if it's "male" or not, worry about how it'll make you look.

Good luck.

If you do get a cut like that, I would make sure to ask them to make your sideburns flat.
Nothing feminizes your face faster than pointy sideburns.
I'd also consider asking them to square out your neckline if it isn't already.
That seems to add a bit of a masculine touch to a haircut.
