: The Stupidest need of advice this board might ever see.
: Zetta December 28, 2010, 11:50:02 -07:00
As title suggests this is pretty stupid.
however I'm at a loss at what i should do about an important aspect of myself...

...I need to find a new Hairstyle :l

SO! as pretty much all of you know, i have roxas hair, but the problem with it, is that i wanna try something different.

which means i need suggestions.
and after i get enough good suggestions, if i cannot pick one myself, i'll have a vote.
i promise content for what is picked, because i don't BS stuff like that, and i like seeing myself so damn much and i'd like to see what you guys think.

So the criteria for this is:
-No mohawks/libertyspikes WHATEVER.
-No baldness. I want a hairstyle, so no buzzcuts/baldness.
-Should look good with glasses, because i gotta wear them.
-Can't go down to my shoulders, My hair is too hard to work with when long :C
-Provide pictures, and assume i don't know the style.

So yeah, HELP ME CHOOSE MY HAIRSTYLE BCF

well as long as it looks good, then yeah.
only problems with coloring is:
-I can't to blonde, because it turns my hair to a bright orange instead of blonde.
-i don't really know where to get good bright colored dye, but it'd be cool if i could.
and with length, i'd prefer atleast  an inch to work with, and at most shoulder length.

:monocle: For the record, a good clean #1 or #2 cut tapered is one of the most professional and slick looks a person can go for.  Albeit, simple and straightforward I will contend that it is a hairstyle.

done ma rant.

My advice is in the form of sharing my haircut process!

1) Find a bunch of pictures (hairstyle sites/googal imuges)
2) Share the ones you like with everyone you care about what they think of your hair
3) Pick a clear winning style based on votes
4) Get cold feet, don't cut it, wait and do it again 3-6 months later!

I haven't got my hair cut in a while.. .__.;

actually, I quite agree.
To keep it fun, you could go with a faux-hawk, your a blended faux-Mohawk.

As a professional stylist, if your hair is going orange when going blond, the person applying the product on your hair doesn't know what he/she is doing. Red toned hair can go blond ... but I suggest not all blond (too much upkeep - and you seem to be a fairly low maintenance kinda guy!)

Perhaps a faux ... with a blend of texturing (I prefer a razor cut) and colour (as previously mentioned, some strategically placed lighted foil panels (assuming your hair is currently long enough)

Excuse me, but I happen to already know all my manners and formal behavior, as my extended family is full of high-nosed people.      ... Plus I really like wearing formal wear, or even just a dress shirt as often as I can..          If this is all people are gonna say I'll just keep the damn Rosas hair. >.>

Oh pando, you'd probably look great with a Shirley Temple doo.  :gay:

We'll put you in that and a georgian overcoat, you'll make a wonderful fop.
In fact, it just so happens that I have a couple spare georgian cut overcoats in my closet here, shall I lend you one?  :P

Yes, we'll pair that with some Parisian opera binoculars and a thai silk scarf - oh you'll be all the talk at the next big Vancouverite social!  :D
All the young women and old homosexuals will be drooling over you!  ;)

Ah ha ha.

Maybe this will Help:

Taken from: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090107195155AAzijcY (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090107195155AAzijcY) <---There are images that work from there

Whether a haircut suits is more related to face shape, skull shape, facial features, frontal hairline, neck shape and how these elements interact, than to hair color.
...
The basic idea behind face shape analysis, and fitting a hairstyle to a certain face and head shape is that the illusion of the "ideal" oval face shape can be created by increasing/decreasing the bulking of the hair from the skull on the sides v the top. The following analysis also includes where to part those styles that have parts.

"Oval: The oval face is the ideal shape. It is designated as the "egg" shape. It is wider at the forehead and tapers to a well rounded chin. This type of face looks equally becoming with hair worn low or high on the head; and likewise, either a center or side part or no part at all is becoming. depending somewhat on other facial characteristics."
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering" 8th ed, pg 129.

"Heart: The heart shaped face is broadest across the cheekbones and has a wide, broad forehead. It is narrow at the jaw line and wide at the eyes. The jawbones curve either to an oval or pointed chin that completes the heart shape. Almost any style is becoming on this normal type of face.The hair may be either short or long, but preferably a little fuller on the top than on the sides. A center part is recommended, or one made fairly close to the center of the head."
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering" 8th ed, pg 130.

"Round: The round face is short with a wide forehead, a rounded hairline, curved jawbones that slope either to an oval or pointed chin. The forehead, cheeks, and jawbones are of equal width. Try to break down the round look. Maximize top hair to balance jawbones and thus lengthen the face. A part directly in the center to divide the face in half is recommended. "
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering" 8th ed, pg 130.

"Angular: The angular face is broadest across the cheek bones, but has a wide forehead. It has sunken temples, hollow cheeks, and prominent cheek bones. The jawbones are curved so as to form a squarish chin. The hair should be kept close to the head, especially at the sides. A side part is most suitable."
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering" 8th ed, pg 130.

"Oblong: The oblong face is a long slightly oval face with a rounded chin. The width from the forehead to where the jawbone curves to the chin is frequently the same. Minimize the top hair and maximize the hair at the sides. A low side part is most appropriate"
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering" 8th ed, pg 130.

"Inverted Triangle: The inverted triangle face is widest across the forehead. From the cheeks downward it tapers sharply to a pointed chin. The temples, forehead, and cheek bones are about the same width, although the temples may be slightly recessed and the cheek bone area may be narrower than the forehead. Keep the hair close to the head. An off center side part is most becoming."
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering" 8th ed, pg 130-131.

"Diamond: The diamond face is wide at the eyes and cheekbones and narrow at the forehead and chin. Its oblique jawbones taper sharply to a pointed chin. Minimize the top hair and maximize the hair at the sides. A low side part is recommended.
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering" 8th ed, pg 131.

"Square: The square face has a wide squarish forehead, and squarish jawbones and chin. This is a difficult shape of face to style. Maximize hair at the sides to subjugate the squareness of the jaws. The top hair should be reasonably full. A center part is suitable if the nose is fairly normal in size and shape. A square face may also be parted off-center, if the nose is prominent.
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering" 8th ed, pg 131-132.

Triangular
"In the triangular face, the upper half is narrower than the lower. It has a narrow tapering forehead and the width through the square jawbones is emphatic. The chin may be slightly squarish or pointed. An attempt should be made to make the upper portion of the head seem wider to balance the wide jawline. Maximize the hair at the narrow portions of the head and minimize, or keep close to the head the hair at the wide portions of the head. A low side part is most suitable."
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering", pg. 132

"Rectangular: The rectangular face is long and squarish. It is longer than it is wide. The forehead, cheek bones, and jawbones are of identical width. The squarish jawbones slope to a slightly squarish or oval chin. The hair should be minimized on top and maximized at the sides to give a rounding contour effect. An off center part is recommended."
L.S. Trusty, "The Art and Science of Barbering", pg. 132

In the short/medium range. An ivy league or a regular taper cut suits most guys.

Good Luck!
