Gentlemen... Start your postings!

[Neodrache]

I've sifted through threads and such to find more male photos, (for support reasons and comparisons) and there is not a lot of images for us guys. C'mon guys.. don't be too damn shy or phobic to show these ladies your hair! LHC is obviously about diversity, compassion for the Mane, and most of all supportive!

I wake up everyday in this world of ours looking in the mirror wondering why we were made in such ways only for us to change it over and over and let the media and society deem whats worthy to be "popular" or even label how the human should look. I'm very biased against these actions against our society but somewhere... somehow there are individuals who rise above or even lurk around with their true given look as we were intended.

I'm proud of my passion to grow my hair out and I want to see more like myself on here. So GET TO IT MEN.. lets show'em that the guys can do it!

[rowie]

What a great idea! You can find my pictures in my album. I'll load more later when I have more time. :)

[LadyCelestina]

Not a guy,but there are more men posting pics of their hair on LHC than you would think...It's just hard to tell from the back of their heads... A picture of hair doesn't tell you much about the poster's gender :D

Anyway,good idea for a supportive thread for men with long hair :)

[Kiwiwi]

Haha, exactly! I was surprised to see rowie is a man, baha! Sorry!

But yes, Neodrache, amen to that!

And here I was trying to add pirates and aphros to my siggy. LOL Good thing I did not put Mr.T smiley:mrt: on my siggy, I wouldn't want people to think i'm in love with him, but he had a show when I was a little boy. hahaha

[Celtic Morla]

my son is growing out his hair(his dad had a fit) and I must say he looks good both with short hair and long! His Nan asked how he was going to wear it and we both said"Queue is probably him!" LOL I must say I am surprised at how it has changed since it has gotten long enough for him to pull back-lighter in colour and SOFTER!

[truepeacenik]

Actually, I find the men of the board more willing to show their faces.
Look on any Bay Area meet report for Ed, sometimes Trolleypup, Bill, Gumball, Pierre (who came out from NC), Dave Decker (came from Florida...actually we will meet around his visits, such a rock star he is) and more.
BeatnikGuy has photos, too.

Who else?

There are quite a few pictures of men on this board, but it may not be apparent from a photo of the back of the head that the person is a man.

I like the stealthiness. We're here, but we're well-camouflaged. :D

Great tread! :D

My dear boyfriend grew his hair to BSL last year, now it's about SL-APL. I know it's not long by LHC standards, but I thought I'd share my love anyway. :) I cut it for him from time to time, then he lets it grow for 6 months or longer. I adore his hair! He looks really good with short hair too, but there's something so darn attractive about his longer hair.

I cheer all of you LHC guys on and I think it would be splendid to see your pictures more!

I feel the same way every day when I contemplate wheter I should dress sexy, put on makeup and become thin just so society (or men) would find me attractive and support the fact that I am "taking care of myself" (like no makeup, sexy clothes and thin body would mean I take care of myself) so I can support your cause.

This thread seems fun.
I'd love to post a picture of my bf's hair, it's so thick and nice, and it's about BSL (well, on me it would be haha).
I'll see if he can send me the picture where I braided it :D

That would be cool. :cool:

Just to re-clarify BSL= Blades of Shoulders when it is used on men. I could go with Nipple length, but that might be uncomfortable to some people, but usually on a men's long hair board it would be "Nipple Length", Belt length instead of hip length. etc. But you probably already knew that. :) Thanks for your support, and I hope you'll stick around. :blossom:

[Neodrache]

So far the hair posts have been magnificent! Yoni, you and Rowie have insanely thick hair! I bed it would take 5 times the sze of one of my threads to equal one of your guys'. =(

I need to know how to make a sig pic.. like rowie's.

[spirals]

yoni, your hair is gorgeous. It shrinks up a lot. Mine does, too, which I hate.

[SGBSteve]

Man... You guys all have such awesome hair. I can't wait until mine goes down past my shoulders. I feel like I've been stuck at CBL forever (the front of my hair just reaches to my mouth and it seriously feels like it hasn't grown at all in a month).

Well I already posted these pictures in my own thread a while ago but I'll post them here too. These are from a show I performed at last month. I normally wear my hair more flat and wavy but decided to go with a fro style for the show. It was a lot of fun and really made me stand out!

Oh thank you so much, spirals! It's kind of saddens me that it's the type that shrinks a lot (because i love to feel my hair, especially when wet and it doesn't have as much shrinking) :D
But I guess I'm used to it by now :)

[Pierre]

I'm not a big picture-taker, but as Truepeacenik said, you can find pictures of me in the meet board. My latest meet was a mini-meet in Charlotte during the DNC.

Calling a male "yoni" sounds funny to me, but I guess it means something completely different in Hebrew than it does in Hindi.

[yoni]

Yeah, I know what it means in Hindi, Yoni is a short version of my name, but that's the name I go with :)

February 2013. Flexi-8. Think I'm going to wear my hair like this with semi-formal in a few months. My hair's naturally quite straight with a few waves where it conforms to my body shape (e.g. shoulders) but I braid before sleeping.

I'm glad you put that out there. I've been following this thread thinking 'Should I say it? Should I?' Just because of my dodgy sense of humour....
So many lovely heads of hair here; a male inspiration thread is a great idea :) (I'm female, personaly, but I can sit here and cheer you on).

[Ocelan]

Just popping in to say I love all the male hair in this thread! You go guys! I am a serious fan of long hair on men (and am most obviously a woman myself). And yes I was too surprised by some names I recognised who turned out to be male! But gender doesn't matter. Beautiful hair is beautiful. :)

Well my boyfriend agreed on me posting his hairs pic so here it is :P.
It's a sloppy braid I did while we were in Moscow together :3. His colour is brown, but looks a bit blond in the sun, and is very thick, I just love it and would rather he never cut it! Haha.

Thanks Rowie! I don't know if you saw my post a while back on the mlhh but I think your hair is pretty similar to mine in texture and waviness. Also apparently you're exactly one year ahead of me in growing so looking at your hair is kind of like looking into the future! I can't wait to see my hair in a year!

Your curls! They remind me of hubby's curls when I met him. (Seriously, if his voice, amazing looks and great personality had not sealed the deal, his waist long curls sure did.) Sadly he wants to climb the corporate latter and he's started to thin so he's been keeping his hair short for years. He's too lazy to do some of the remedies that have been posted for hair loss so he's going to go bald this summer. :(

I'll just have to oggle your hair then. Oh, that lovely shade too! Where's Gru?I need to oggle her lovely red curls too. GRU!!! -scampers off-

Thanks! I think my hair's improved a lot since I went water-only in…August or September (well, easier to take care of now anyway —*I only have to wash it twice a week as opposed to every other day!)

Flexi-8s are really comfortable. I had doubts as I thought the metal would be a bit heavy but it's actually quite nice. Looking to get a leather barrette now (the kind where you have a patch of leather, 2 holes and a stick).

Jextxadore, immediately after my previous post I went to the Flexi-8 website and ordered two! Only problem now is because I'm in the UK I have to wait ages to get them :( Still, it's actually cheaper buying them direct than getting them from a seller over here and there's more choice!

Not a man but married to a longhair.

DH is about midback, dark gold thick fine wurls (he's about 2c-3a/F-M, ii-iii) which I help him take care of. He also has a full beard (pics in my album) I have to admit getting inspired for him by all of you longhaired guys here!

I didn't used to be a fan of long haired men, but am now. :) DH claims it is an automatic message that he is a nonconformist, what used to be called a 'freak flag' where i come from. :) We are going to see if we can braid it more often once he changes jobs, since he is a teacher and needs to have kids used to a braid from the beginning so that his hair does not become the focus of his lesson.

My DH uses leave-in and CO washing and a detangling spray (with princesses on it; it is aimed at little girls).

Seriously envious of all you guys on your stunning locks! Either for length, colour, both, or just cos long hair on guys is gooooood! I do with my DBF would grow his, he'd suit it, but wouldn't cope well with the akward stages.

It doesn't look like crap. It's still nice hair.

DH has a high and tight these last few years, but when we got together (1994) and through our wedding and first two years of marriage he had long hair. It's all good. Handsome either way!

As are you!

Hahaa! I admit beeing one of those that have been oogling but not replying.
Great hair guys! Wish more men grew out their hair and/or beards. :)

[Shaun]

Ahh, another gent to join the conversation. I however, haven't figured out the darn album settings to get a new pic up...

[PolarCathy]

Subscribing too, just for the hair p0rn pics. My head somehow always turns when I see a long haired guy, especially with dark hair, even when I'm in a relationship (blush).

Does that mean I adore long hair on men? :crush:

[Ocelan]

Neodrache, I think you look like a Bond or Die Hard villain or an evil henchman. And that's a compliment! :)

And I don't want to leave any of the other gents here uncomplimented. There's not a single male hair picture in this thread that I haven't loved. I should have you guys talk some sense into my SO who regularly threatens to cut off all his BSL hair! He already chopped his braided goatee into a 1 cm long patch last week.

[MidnightMoon]

Midnight moon, your boyfriends hair is awesome! I'm dying for length. I fell like I'm watching a clock.... haha!

Yea.. holy moly Shadow walker! WOW... I too envy the length brother! need to post a newer picture.. lol you guys are very inspiring for others to continue growth!

Very nice Yoni! Damn brother..you walk into crap all the time trying to look through that mane?? =P haha j/k brother...

FYI.. i just figured out to multi reply.. haha sorry for all the loose threads..

This was me today right before work.. hair looks like crap.. =\

You never know how ugly you are until you look in a mirror or a photo.. haha.. at least I have confidence in the hair.. camera, lighting positioning are all out of wack!

Here is mine:

I'm going for waist length which means it will be longer than hip when pulled straight.

[didrash]

I am definitely not a guy, just wanted to pop in and say - really, really marvelous hair, gentlemen! Also, I admire your courage. I am pretty sure that in most countries there is at least some societal pressure against long hair on men, usually stronger than what is applied on women. It's good that you remain yourselves! Way to go!

[DarkSunny]

Well I don't know how your hair looks like but I guess I'll just have to take your words :D took me some time to actually like my hair type.

Ah. Same here. But, I'm starting to think it's actually a very nice hair type, especially as it gets longer.

Actually, your hair might be a little thicker than mine, which is definitely not a bad thing. :)

He cut it to above his ears when we moved, and now he's back down to about shoulder after a few heavy trims. The job he has now doesn't care if it's long so he's started growing it again.

(eta: he did say I could share! He doesn't have an account here, but I was showing him the long haired guys and he wanted to chime in)

[cobden 28]

I'm of the generation brought up to believe that long hair for a man was when it covered his ears or even worse, reached his collar - as my husband wore his hair back in the early 1970's. I don't mind long hair on a man if it's kept neat and tidy; neatly trimmed at the ends (no split ends please) and if in a professional office-type environment tied back neatly in a ponytail.

[yoni]

Well, I was stuck at home today and had too much free time.. so I came up with this: (I have no idea how to call it)

I don't mind long hair on a man if it's kept neat and tidy; neatly trimmed at the ends (no split ends please) and if in a professional office-type environment tied back neatly in a ponytail.

Are your requirements for women any different? Sorry. I guess I'm not understanding why it's necessary to make that a male specific requirement.

[spirals]

I think she's just specifying a standard for men because you see ratty ends more often on male longhairs. Well, I do. Maybe that's because our culture tends to discourage men from obtaining information about taking care of long hair. I see women with ratty ends, but a larger percentage of them are on long-haired men in my neck of the woods. It makes me sad.

Hi all! Just popping into post on DBF's behalf, as I've finally remembered to ask him if he'd mind me posting photos of his hair, and he's alright with it :D He lets me braid it occassionally, this was either just before he washed it or just after before it was completely dry.

His hair is beautiful!! Also, for some reason the milk carton is amusing me. We don't have those in the states anymore. Yeah, I'm weird.

Well I already posted this in my own little thread but I figure I'll post it here so my fellow long haired men can enjoy it.

This is from a concert my band played two weeks ago (and by band I mean my friend Sam and I). For those who don't know we do acoustic guitar covers of video game songs (we call ourselves Super Guitar Bros). There were three other bands who played that night and they were all awesome but here's a video of our set. Music starts at about 3:20.

Enjoy!!

[AcornMystic]

I watched your performance SGBSteve! Fantastic and some of the songs were very moving indeed. My favourite was the Gerudo Valley tune. I used to ride around in Gerudo Valley on Epona because it was just the perfect song to gallop to. Very, very nice! ^.^

My way of contributing on top though. My husband finally got the ok from immigration to come up and is coming at the end of this month. He's let his hair grow for me as his mum usually cuts it for him but she is snowbirding with his dad and only arrived on the 5th of this month. It was already growing quite long, and so he decided to let it continue to grow for my sake until he gets up here and can cut it off. I've always wanted to see him with longer hair, to suit his viking build. Bring out the Scandinavian in him. It's already brushing past the collar of his shirts and flowing over his ears and in his eyes. I am really looking forward to be able to run my fingers through it. :D All I have to say, I'm a great supporter of long haired men, so all the power to you and don't be at all shy to post all your guy's pics. Hair is to be admired and adored I says!:o

Oh yeah! I used to do the same thing, just riding around on Epona while that song plays. I've actually heard that same thing from a lot of people so you know Koji did a good job when he wrote that song.

Posted it in the bun thread as well, but I guess I'll put it here as well :D


Saw Rowie's Nautilus bun and my hair got jealous (seriously, his hair is so gorgeous!) and tried to do a nautilus bun as well.

Little did I know that my hair was about to swallow the alternate hair pin, and creating this gigantic..... thing.

I would say going on that first pic you are past shoulder length! Looks more like armpit of just below :)

good for you, i love long hair on men. healthy, clean hair is awesome

[Becky9679]

Definitely at least armpit length daredevil14 and your curls are GORGEOUS! I bet you get some major shrinkage from them, where does it come to when stretched out or wet?

Thank you! Your hair is beautiful too. TBL achieved, congrats! :)

They actually reach somewhere around BSL (or the equivelent for men), I complete my 3 years of growing (I started from almost half of an inch!) next July. I hope I reach waist-length by the middle of 2014! :D

You guys have great hair!
Stupid question, but...

Do you use shampoo engineered towards men?
Do you use women's shampoo and products?

Is there a difference?
I feel like there might be, since most men don't care much about their hair.
But, they might be the same thing, but the feminine versions smell more flowery.

[Kittney]

I could answer for my boyfriend. He won't use mens shampoo for various reasons nor would I use anything gender specific on purpose since we all have the same hair. He doesn't even think about the smell unless it's gross like hospital or too pungent, guess he is more than happy to smell like roses. He mostly uses the Garnier Pure clean shampoo and conditioner but not the 2 in 1. I will try to get a shot of his hair and post it sometime soon.

DH is mostly bald, and he keeps the edges shaved short. He recently requested "Troy Polamalu" shampoo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaJFnGGECJo , but told me there was no hurry, because the 1/4" left in the bottom of the bottle would last him several weeks. Silly Honey!

The shampoo that I'm using right now says "aromatherapy", but the scent is so mild that the label is almost misleading.

The whole "Woman's brand but for men" thing kinda makes me mentally gag. I'm still waiting to see if they make Secret deodorant for men.

That being said I use whatever I want. I had a collection of like 50+ products a few years ago. I'm going to be restarting it.
I'll probably lean towards lavenders or purple stuff but for the most part I'll be going for smoothing or damage types but without the heavy cones. I haven't done a 30 minute sit in the tub with a bag on my head under a shower cap thing for like 5 years. I miss it.

I'd rather smell like flowers or apples than something too fake or cologne like.

[patienceneeded]

Not to hijack the men's thread or anything...

My youngest brother (he's 32 now) still uses Suave's Strawberry shampoo and conditioner. He has ever since he was very young. He just loves the smell. His little boys use it too. Use what you like, regardless of the smell.

If the guys don't want to smell flowery, there's always Dr. Bronner's magic soap. Some scents are gender-neutral, like almond or citrus. Of course, you have to do some kind of acidic rinse after. But hey, it's fair trade, organic, vegan, and it's fun to read the bottle!

Most of the length is damaged by blowfrying, but after I found this place I managed to at least make it look a little bit better. Gotta say thanks for that!

[spirals]

Hey, I think we're curl twins. Possibly color, too.

[Lakiticni]

That's cool! I've never met a person out of my family who has the same hair (my grandma being the one who had it before some stress, now she lost most of it).
Maybe I should check your care routine (it is in your signature??)

And forgot to say previously, thanks for the welcome, EdG.

[spirals]

In our family we call it the George hair because we got it from my grandfather. My aunts cut theirs short because they couldn't deal with it. My routine is to wash with castile soap whenever my scalp is dirty or itchy, or when my hair has gone enough days to lose moisture. I don't like acv, so I make an acidic rinse with marshmallow root for slip. I think I will start adding nettles in again. I need a new detangler for summer; the humidity makes it like velcro! And I'm at waist, so it tangles if I look at it. For now I like almond and jojoba oil together, or grapeseed oil for general use and coconut or pre-wash soaks. I would call our hair wavy curls or curly waves; it defies categorization.

[Nedertane]

Hey, gents, I've got a question! :)

I happened to pay attention to the "men's section" of the hair dye aisle for once while trying to kill some time in a drug store, and noticed a sort of reluctance towards calling any of the colors blonde. It seemed as though the lightest any of the brands wanted to go was light brown. There was one that went as far as dark blonde (gasp!) but even then, it was labeled "Dark blonde/Light brown" (This one (http://www.justformen.com/products/autostop/?shade=dark-blond), to be precise).

I've also noticed that blonde, or at least very light blonde men seem to be kind of a rarity in television/movies, unless they're a villain, or it's in some historical and/or fantasy setting. The only blonde celebrities that I can think of who don't entirely fit either category are Gordon Ramsey and Owen Wilson, but I could be missing others.

What I'm wondering then, is if there's any sort of "male stigma" against blonde hair? Is it seen as feminine/less masculine, or something? Most of the blonde men I know probably couldn't give a crap how their sexuality is seen, so my guess would be that I'm just over-analyzing. :p But in observation of these phenomena, I figured I'd bring the question here. So, what do y'all think?

[humble_knight]

Blonde men as villains? What have you been watching? :p Thor's blonde! Vikings are blonde! :p Legolas, Faramir, Boromir<-------any need to go on? lol

[Nedertane]

Hmm, I wouldn't consider Boromir to be blonde, perhaps not even Faramir either. I had thought of the Malfoys and Silas (Da Vinci Code). Maybe I'm too far gone from pop culture, but besides your examples, I just couldn't think of many blonde male protagonists.

I see these are advertised to "cover the grey". I suspect that really blond hair doesn't show up the grey in the same way darker hair does.

February 2013. Flexi-8. Think I'm going to wear my hair like this with semi-formal in a few months. My hair's naturally quite straight with a few waves where it conforms to my body shape (e.g. shoulders) but I braid before sleeping.
Love it!:thud:

My hair's about halfway between shoulder length and shoulder blade, aiming for mid-back. Been coming back to this thread and your photo above for extra motivation to keep growing it out. Just the simplicity of the Flexi-8, keeping the hair out of the face and peripheral vision, while leaving it reasonably loose and comfy in the back... Can't wait! :cool::rockerdud

Posted it in the milestone thread as well but oh well :)
Finally managed to do a braid without putting it in a ponytail before, had to stop in the middle so it turned to some sort of a segmented braid :D

Tori, being that I am ex-military, lived most my life to the conformity of society's standards, and basically walked this earth without my own identity, I could never look back with finding my identity as a man with my hair growing. I feel more empowerment from my hair than I do anything else. When I think of Sampson's story of strength, I feel I'm literally on the same page. I have more self-esteem with long hair and more so, I feel utmost confidence. Pride. Plain and simple. I have the testosterone of a Viking God and the compassion of a nurturing mother, (probably why I'm a damn good nurse) and all because I have found myself, believe it or not, through my hair...

Oh no, there is the beard! *swoons*

I just noticed my DBF's hair is soon reaching waist length. He likes it when I brush it gently (I bought him a tangle teezer so he wouldn't rip one of those plastic nubby brushes through his hair). He had a buzz cut in 2008 or 2009 and had only let me cut about one inch of it off in March of last year, that's all it's ever been cut since he started growing. The ends are full of split ends, but he hasn't yet let me S&D his hair, keeps saying it would take forever to do so, but it would make a big difference it the ease of detangling. He is WO. I hope he won't cut it all off one day! I would be devastated! I know it's his hair and he can do anything he wants with it but he looks so much better with it than without. I would sneak a picture to you guys, but I don't know if I dare. :)
