I love good haircuts....

[ChiaPet]

Just came back from the barbershop..

What a relief... It's amazing what a good haircut can do for your hair.
My hair was lookin' real bad this morning.

I always get the same lady to cut it, and if she's not there, I keep going back until she is...anyways, I get it clipped on the sides #2, faded and just a little off the top.

I must say keeping it short is definately the way to go. Having it TOO short may have the reverse effect, though, and you may look worse than you would with long hair. I'd say if you got the same type of hairloss as I do (NW2/2.5 -receding hairline, thining frontal area, slightly thining vertex, huge forhead) it's best to sport the caesar style, or something similar... My hair looks fine now -- even with gel and bright light, hairloss is only slightly visible.

It's really odd...when I let the hair grow out for about a month and gel my hair, it looks realllllll bad. I can see through it in any sort of light.

I think the shedding is slowing down too...Gotta stay positive :!:

Go check out my success story under success stories...its all there brotha.

 

[VWdude]

as for starting minoxidil soon... we'll see what happens on my one year mark.

 

[chin311]

yeah the first week after i get a haircut its amazing, then its shitty, then its good again, then shitty , then real bad, then good, its weird. diff lengths have very diff effects.

 

[ang_99]

When I get a haircut, I only get 1 and a half good weeks out of it. When its first cut, its usually kind of corny then the following week it looks great for about 10 days, then starts the decline. I usually go every 4 weeks.

 

[jumpedthegun]

do you guys go to salons or barbershops?

 

[ChiaPet]

Yeah I usually go every 4-5 weeks too, but I'm really thinking about going every 3 weeks from here on, as my hair looks just horrible if I let it grow any more than that.

Oh...and I go to a salon, despite saying barbershop earlier...
