That is my hair parted down the center with no gel. Its a myspace pic.
such a baby 😛

gel it a little, not a lot. have your older sister of another female give you style advice.

good idea. girls your age (assuming are as young as you look) enjoy the whole makeover thing. because, at the end of the day, it's their opinion you're looking for, right? better to ask them, than ask a much of 20-something male computer geeks 🙂

well, mosh, excluded of course :heart:😀

I would gel my hair like that, once i grow it longer.

Anyways thanks.

Does it still look good though? (the hair in my pic)

hard to tell since you're giving the thug-lyfe chin up pose 😛

like i said, i'm not a fan of the wet/gel look. btw, is that post haircut or pre hair cut?

i think you need to go for a shorter cut and go easy on the gel. right now it just looks wet and stuck to your head, assuming you gel it just like that. from what i've learned, girls like to be able to put their fingers through your hair without feeling the crunch from gel or having their finger come out oily.

i know you want to avoid looking like others in your school, but i don't think your current hairstyle is very flattering.

I prefer "hair glue." Gel is wet looking, and if you go outside on a day with just a bit of wind, it messes it up. Especially a problem when I walk nearly a mile to classes.

Well, in school time, we don't really get the chance to be putting our fingers through our hair and so on.. I just want it to look good. But thanks though.

I didn't know there were other stuff for hair. I thought it was just gel and the stuff "grease" or something that black people use lol.
 
what i meant about the girls running their fingers through your hair comment, wasn't that they would actually do it, i mean that's the subconscious test they go through. but, hey, if girls are running their fingers through your hair during school......congrats 🙂 yeah, there are many different kinds of product for your hair. hell, do a search here, i think people have started threads about it. i know i did at least once 😛

in the end, have fun w/ your hair. it'll grow back eventually. 😀
 
Try spiking it in the front, and leave the rest down. That's a pretty neutral haircut that won't attract men like the hotti hair. 😛

Also, if you have longer hair, try slicking the bangs and the sides and front back, not the whole thing.
