Baldies

When both men and women stop being such conformists! I can`t say it often enough!

Valinda, sorry, I am not a lady but I have my opinion to this theme. I think long hair on men is accepted better in society as in the 70th where it had a touch of revolution and I have also seen men with long hair who have the knowledge to manage it, and I have seen much more men with long or very long hair as in the 70th. Most of them had nice hair similar as the women usual have.

One week ago we had a chess match and one of the guys of the players had superlong hair down to his butt put into a ponytail. He had full hair and no problems with the well known male pattern baldness.

I myself prefer it to have long hair and I have learned something about hair care in the last year and I am accepted at work, in the chess club and at my homeplace (in general) from society with the long hair (now 12 inch long). I don`t think that long hair on men will be a general art of fashion in the near future, but if men want to keep it long I am hopefully it will be accepted, why it isn`t anymore this kind of revolution from the 70th. I hope that scientific progress will find a solution to help all men to have full long hair if they want it. I think only the Indians represent a population on earth which don`t has the overall problem of male pattern baldness.

I think part of the reason why a lot of men are wearing their hair short is that we`re seeing a bit of a neo-yuppie trend lately.. with cell phones and V-necks cleaning up the grunge look of a few years back. The problem is that long hair has the negative connotations of metal music and mullets.
Shaven heads have become stylish lately because a lot of musicians and athletes have been taking on the look, and it`s a flattering style to balding men. But I agree, bald heads do get irritating sometimes. Don`t get me wrong, I will acknowledge that some men look outstanding with no hair (but they usually look outstanding with hair, too) but there are also a bunch of shaven men who don`t look so hot. I find that black men, on average, suit the look better than white men, because they generally have wider faces and it looks better. I find that the men who suit the look least have really skinny faces.. But on a very rare occasion (probably 1 in 100 or more shaven men) I am absolutely drawn to a man with a chrome dome.. generally he eschews some sort of creative presence and has great eyes!

But by the same token, I love men with lots and lots of curls...
