I looked for ideas online once. I think women copy celebrity haircuts so you could try that.

Now I just get a 1 all around.

I usually get ideas by seeing other guys' hair styles that I think would look good on me. I've been just trimming all my hair the same length (about 1/4") just because it's easy. I've been doing this for about a year and am sick of it. I'm going to let it grow out now and be maybe 3/4" on the sides and double that on top. I recently saw another guy's hair that was like this and thought it would look good on me.

Also, I've been cutting my own hair for about 2 years now with a razor that I only paid $30 for. It's certainly saved a lot of money and the hassle of going to the barber shop.

Contrary to what ATOTers may say, it doesn't make you gay if you care about your hair. You don't have to live with being content getting the same boring hair cut for rest of your adult life.

Blond highlights make you gay.

I think it's hot when guys care about their hair.

I've always wanted to stand in front of a big double mirror with my man and do our hair together ;)

Aren't you friends with girls that you can ask? How about going to a hair salon and get recommendations?

Anything has to be better than that bowl job.

They never give me any advice... They just say, "go to a hair stylist or something." I don't know where to go for where I live. :(

And you'd be surprised at how good the bowl is compared to other shit my hair loves.

But according to ATOT's males who are all experts on being manly. Even if your scenario was happening, and even if while it was happening you 2 were naked and having sex. He'd still be gay because a man shouldn't care about his appearance what-so-ever.

I just tell them to keep it long in the front, keep it off of my ears, and that I trust their judgement and ability to make it look good.

All the men on ATOT are experts on females, virgins or not they seem to have a complete grasp on members of the opposite sex. Like the time I posted about how I had went to get a Manicure and had got a few numbers from chicks there. And of course people on ATOT were calling gay for caring about my appearance. It made me chuckle to think at least a few who called me gay were probably single and unable to get a female.

Here is what I look like currently to some degree: http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/7963/007xc.jpg

Suggestions on what kind of hairstyle fits the old man creeper look I somehow have managed in that photo? :p

I'm not a good photographer and I am not photogenic... It's difficult for me to even manage a 1/10 photo...

IDK what is any good, but I was thinking: http://haircutsformen.org/buzz/haircuts/buzz93.htm http://haircutsformen.org/buzz/haircuts/buzz71.htm http://haircutsformen.org/buzz/haircuts/buzz222.htm All those are kinda iffy... I don't know if I could pull of the look that all those models seem to manage. :p

I like the 2nd link, I can't tell from your pic, but if you have a big forehead (I do) the 2nd one won't work out well. The 1st and 3rd link, those aren't styles to me, looks like the guys woke up and left the house without combing it. I think the only reason I like the 2nd is it's shiny, it looks pretty mess too, but the shine gives it sort of a Brad Pitt feel.
