QuoteReplyTopic: Men with long hair & insults Posted: October 21 2010 at 10:23am
Hey everyone sorry about the emoticon, accidentally clicked it and it won't leave, I can't delete it for some reason. Anyways this is my first post and it's a good question I think ^_^
Well I still go to school and I'm a metal kind of guy with long hair about 3 or 5 inches below my shoulders. It's well kept and all. But the problem is the boys in my class and well basically the whole school and town make fun of me or laugh at me or give negative looks. And I have to admit, for a metal guy I'm quite mentally weak, and don't take insults well. I worry a lot, etc.
I was just wondering if anyone here can please me some insight on how to react to their insults and looks. Thanks everyone and sorry for the huge post that I wrote.
(please don't say "just ignore/forget it. Cause I can't, that's way too easy
Thanks!

Hi, I am glad to help you. I am a guy with shoulder length hair myself and I too get comments from people about it including my parents which hurt. However, the best thing to do is to act like it does not bother you. I found some positive reinforcements in people that really did like my hair long and perferred it that way. When someone said something negative I found a way to shrug it off because everyone has their opinion and I knew those who liked it too. If you cannot find that reinforcement in your school or town you should be able to find it on here or another long hair site. There is plenty of support that should make you feel good about yourself. How long do you want your hair?

I don't really actually. I usually just have it loose and flowing lol. But I do put it in a ponytail obviously (kinda have to at times), and have it behind my ears. And yeah that's about it =D

You bet, my dad said he's proud of me for taking the time to grow it out so long and that I keep having it the same length due to what people think and say (I've had it this length for a year now). And yeah from most of my friends, the ones that don't just say interesting lol so they're nice about it at least. My math teacher calls me a girl and makes fun of it, but he said he's just kidding and to take whatever he says in life with a grain of salt. XD

To be honest yeah, I only like girls with fairly long hair, doesn't have to be super long. Just short hair doesn't appeal to me, nothing against the girl though =D

Wow that is awesome. I am glad to hear you have been growing it that long. I have been growing mine for just over a year now and I absolutely love it. Did you ever think of doing it in femme styles?

I guess Pagan style just meant either flowing and kept in a ponytail, my auntie braided it a couple times, not a huge fan of it. I guess by Pagan I just meant simple and untouched really.

Awww i love the thought of long flowing hair. It looks amazing and i definately think you will get compliments on it. Was your aunt excited about braiding it or what did she think?
