What do you guys think of it?
Those eyes?!
There must be something very interesting on his phone if he made that face.
[QUOTE=Lizurd Man;34106481]Those eyes?![/QUOTE]
He got sexted at that exact moment.
Upgrade. Take it from me. I had long hair for nearly 5 years. I absolutely loved it, felt like it fit who i was and my personality, and for the most part it did. I'd still love to have long hair.
But as far as being attractive goes I'd say it made me look fuckin crazy. It was super long, I didn't take care of it, and I could tell girls didn't like it, but I didn't give a fuck. If someone didn't like me because of my outward appearance that is their problem.
But, I got to a point in my life where I was ready to get it cut short, and ever since then I heard no end to the amount of people telling me how much better it looked. I went from "guy who is nice and funny but I would never date" to somebody who a girl would want to date.
Some comparison pictures.

So in essence, you are young, you still have time to experiment with your hair, but if you want to look acceptable/attractive to more than a minority section of society, you will do better/look better with short hair. So keep it if you like it, but there will come a time, and don't be afraid when it comes.
[I]Now please, let us move on to a new topic.[/I]
You are a sexy man now.
your current hair is amazing
not quite as amazing as Bldr's because he's number 1 on my sexy hair scale
but you're second place

Good god you look 100% more attractive.
Fuck it, I'm going back to just straightening it. I'll need more layering on the left side though.
Can't even tell they're the same person, wow.
ok well I gave you suggestions so
don't whine that we never did nothin for you

If I posted my "before" and "after" pictures, Upgrade would cut his hair instantly

I like this. Looks pretty nice. Also looks warm.
I remember when I was really shy and I used to have long hair. I actually went through the stages of luverofJ!93 slowly getting shorter and shorter.
Then I realized short hair doesn't work that well when its thick and straight ):

I'd just like to say that I just posted a screenshot of this to facebook and tagged two people in it that need to learn this. Thank you.
I apologize for the shitty photo quality (it's 1:30AM and I still have much to learn when it comes to self photography). At any rate, I got two blazers for Christmas, one navy, one charcoal. This is the latter.
I'm still working on the overall outfit. I'm thinking darker jeans (with a slight faded look) and a slightly dressier black shirt would do good. As would learning how to photograph myself so I look like what I see in the mirror :v:

Huge improvement over this, which is how I looked about 5 years ago.

I like that blazer! Nice color and it seems to fit alright (although I'm not the expert on blazers). A darker fade jeans and a nice dress shirt underneath would do just fine.

I had the same problem, but I got my sister to cut it. She went a little too fast, so when it was at medium length I said "ok it's fine like that", but she kept going on saying "just a little bit more" and cut it really short. Ended up looking pretty good, it was pretty funny going to school and seeing everyone looking at me like "who the hell is that guy", after I had really long hair for ~2 years
I have had the same hair style for the past three years. Here it is.

Part of that chair ate my jaw sorry.
Should I change it or keep it and actually do something with it? Also ignore the crap glasses, getting them replaced soon.

Trust me, I don't take offense to that. I actually got an elliptical machine for Christmas and am down 5lbs so far. I aim to be substantially slimmer come springtime. I'm tired of being single :v:
Most difficult part so far is keeping my motivation up, but that's just because I'm not used to it.

You should try to fuck around with it some. Try some hair wax!
[QUOTE=tehfrog;34106754]You should try to fuck around with it some. Try some hair wax![/QUOTE]
I have some CREW hair stuff somewhere.
I start school Monday.
Tomorrow is experiment day.
I've been trying to work out too. Not to lose weight but just to keep myself moving, or else I'll sit at the computer for hours at a time and never move.
So I go for a thirty minute or so walk/run every day at 5:30pm. Well, when I can. I had work today so I wasn't able to. But I've been keeping it up for a week now, so hopefully I can stick with it.
When I was younger my fashion sense was so godawful it hurts thinking about it. My "fashion" sense was a bowl cut that's grown to earlobe-length, a hoodie a size too small with the sleeves ripped in places and makeshift thumb sleeves, light faded jeans that barely reach down to the ankles, and skater shoes two sizes too big.
The way I dress now is a [b]huge[/b] improvement over how I dressed 2-3 years ago

My biggest concern is that I'll fall out of the habit in 2 weeks when I go back to school. I'm trying to come up with an end goal to motivate me to just spend the 30-45 minutes a day.

I'm the opposite. When I'm in school I'm more motivated to work out.

Got any tips? While I feel motivated enough for the time being, I'll accept all the help I can get.
