I only get a haircut once a year, so I might be guilty of those three-inch-long split ends, but I wish it to be known that my toenails are in fine shape, thank you very much.
I think men should revive the style of growing their hair long enough to wear one of those black ribbons, a la Thomas Jefferson. Very dashing. No powder, though.
gimme a 2 on the sides…
and as short as you can with the scissors on top!

Dammit Brian, will you please send an email before you post that picture? I am one of the women that went nuts.
My husband has long hair. I like it alot. Long hair catches my eye. But it is not the be all & end all. Short, long, bald, whatever. The only thing I really don’t like is the comb-over.
Dave Grohl is super sexy with the new short hair!
I once dated a guy with super curly, shiny black hair which was fairly long. One day, he called me up and told me to come over, the back door would be open. Uh, okay.
So I go in the back door and there is a chair with a shoebox on it. I opened the box, screamed and flung it out the door. He had shaved his lovely hair and put in the box. Being so super curly, it all kind of remained in one piece. On first glance, for a split second it looked like his head in the box (A la Se7en) Initial horror aside, he ended up being rather foxy with the shaved head.
I used to love fellas with long hair, but I think that I’ve grown out of it now.
I prefer short hair on men but when I see a guy like Satan I wonder if I am making a wise choice.
I wore it long for about 12 years. Real long; it came to about one hand above my belt. And I got it trimmed regularly, with the little ‘wings’ on the front. I enjoyed it, but I tired of it. I’ll never forget the day I got it cut. It was great; I remember tossing my head around to experience the lightness, my girlfriend thought she had a new boyfriend…and liked it! It was a trip to discover the 30 second hair washing.
There was a whole thing in the '80’s when I favored one stylist for, I think, 14 years straight. She knew my corporate deal, but I told her do what you want to try. Remember, I spent a lot of non-client time with this gal as well. Anyway, I corporated through the eighties with some might pompadours and tails, etc. Finally, when I went into business for myself, we sttled on the “Opie.”
Nowadays I get it cut short and let it go for 4-6 months or so. It’s covering my collar now, I must do a 'do before the Dopers show up.
Satan - that picture give a whole new meaning to the phrase “handsome as sin”
Although I think it’s as much the mischievous twinkle in your eye as the length of your hair.
LOL Cristi, no doubt
I even hugged him in the BBQ Pit thinking about his picture oh and his hair…sheesh
< fanning face >
Give me a man with short hair! A number 2 or 3 on sides and back, longer on top, all blended together! No offense to long-haired guys…that’s just my preference! All of my friends prefer Brad Pitt with the long hair, but I was happy when he cut it off.

No, stupid, it’s a boat!
I LOVE long hair on guys!!! My man has medium length hair, cause he didn’t want to deal with the upkeep, and that’s fine. But a long-haired guy will outright swivel my head on the street. I just love it ! Maybe it was that summer of 68 in San Francisco, when I was wee & impressionable… whatever… it still fills me with glee.
Long hair on guys rules. But tell me please, who started this bullshit with the short haircuts with pony-tails? It looks dorky as hell.
My theory is someone started the “style” in order to see just how many guys would be willing to deliberately make themselves look stupid in order to appear “with it” (now, there’s a seventiesism for you)

When I see an attractive guy with short hair, I usually think “he’s cute, but imagine how much hotter he’d be with LONG HAIR!” So I guess I’m the opposite of some of you. I know that my husband would look kinda like a doofus with short hair, wheras here is what he looks like now:

Another example is… Brendan Fraser… the man is gorgeous, and soooo much more so when his hair is long!
I just really do NOT like the “clean cut” look at ALL. Come on, guys! Grow that hair!

I had extremely long hair all through my undergrad years, and only cut it off six months after graduation.
I noticed that I was almost always pulling it back into a a long ponytail, and that I liked the sleek, otter-like appearance of my head when my hair was back.
Then, of course, there was the time it was caught in the machinery down at the ice-and-salt works and I was dragged into the gears and horribly mangled…

I kind of miss my long hair but not taking care of it. It was longer than Satan’s. All long. Not short in the front like some Camaro driving mullet head. I was almost forced to cut it when I let a tangle at the nape of my neck get out of control. It was turning into a mutant dreadlock until I chopped it out.
I finally had to take George Thorogood’s advice to get a haircut and get a real job. That was two years ago and I have few regrets.
Come, let us go, I’ve a cask of amontillado.
my tattoo artist had a waist-length mohawk w/ 4" skulls on either side above his ears. it was way cool. but running my hand over his smooth bare scalp was quite as nice as that long black hair in back.
“Then, of course, there was the time it was caught in the machinery down at the ice-and-salt works and I was dragged into the gears and horribly mangled…”
—Nah, too easy.
I have seen a photo of Ike in his hippie undergrad days, I am am here to testify (place the bible right over there) that he looks MUCH better as a short-haired, tweed-clad grown-up. Though I have an uncontrollable urge to hook my pinkie through that little gold hoop earring and PULLLLL . . .
It’s silver, and it’s a breakaway. And if you try it, I’ll grab that nose-ring of yours.
