Hi this is a honest question, what do you think of a very short or clippered back on a womens style. I wear mine spiky and think of clippering the back.

P/S. This is in no way a fetish post, I visit this site daily.

I'll chime in with an honest answer.
There are lots of women who like to wear bobs with the nape area or just above clippered short. Some like to do that for the summer to keep their necks cooler, or so I've read.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I'm glad that women are able to wear those styles if they want them. I've seen some nice looking ones. It's no different than deciding to have bangs or layers.

I think it's key to find a stylist who understands what you are asking for though. Or at least a friend who can do it for you.

Edited to add: If I can grow my hair long by my own choice then there's no reason a woman can't choose a clippered style.

I don't like the really extreme stuff, like the ear-length bobs that are completely shaved, bowl-like, underneath -_- .  That just looks silly, to me.  Otherwise, I have no problem with it.  I doubt a clippered back on spiked hair would be a problem for anyone-- it seems to me a longer back would be odd with the spikes, anyway.

More awesome than a manatee!

i think it can look nice on a short bob but not when its shaved bald i think the clippering needs to be at least left at 1/4" and shouldnt go real high up

Long with BLUNT bangs or ALL cut to lip length, I cant decide my favorite!

As your tag line says "Go for it change is good, Hair grows back".

Or as my wife puts it - "Don't put off till tomorrow what you can do today.  If you do it today and like it you can do it again tomorrow"

Its your hair, your choice and your decision

I think clippered backs look wonderful.  Some women have very pretty shoulder and nape areas.  This is a way to show it off.  Plus it is summer, so no one will think it is odd.  With the spikes it will be natural.  I would go with a clippered nape and sides, try something new!

Hi, its a flip spik now, ok yes it is a matter of finding a stylist and I'm sure mine will. I'm not talking all the way to the skind just a nice clippered back to blend to the spik part.  Lots of post, quess I need to see if my idea was odd, I have thick hair and think it would be nice to try with the heat this summer.

If you want it short but too short you could tell the stylist to try using a scissor over comb technique instead of the clippers to kinda taper it or blend it. Or tell the stylist to use the largest guard on the clippers. If all else fails you can try a barber too.

I meant to also say that back in the late 80's or early 90's a lot of girls were wearing those mushroom styles and a lot of those had the napes cut short. Becky on Roseanne had something like that.
