Goodbye

Hi all.
I am cutting my hair. After the second time of growing it I have had enough. I have not 'give in' to long hair, its just I dont like mine anymore.
The hassel, headaches, heat and the general look, I do not like.
Its coming off. Ive had a good time growing it back and talking to you guys, typically MG and tekmatai, (hey, we should meet again soon man to jam that was cool, if your interested?).
So I have not 'quit' or 'given in' its just I don't like it and what comes with it. Why have it if you are totally unhappy with it? I will not regret it, as I have extended the 2 week rule into about a 6 month one, as you will see I have not posted for a while.
If I ever grow it back, (doubtful) I will post again. I will still be looking round here and occasionally posting to offer any help/advice etc.
Bye and cheers
James

:-/. I think it's probably for the best. After talking to you on MSN you really do seem to hate your hair. I guess I'll see you around MSN.
Take Care

Probably for the best, I agree. It's not for everyone. For someone like me, the very thought of cutting is sickening, even with my being in the awkward stage. I love it sooo much more than I ever liked short hair, even with all the hassles. Good luck with the whole thing, James. At least you're not giving up music. Then I'd have to kill you. It's a matter of principle, you understand. =P See you around.

I have forgotten what you looked like. Got any recent pic? Just wondering if perhaps putting it all in a ponytail at this point was possible and might be an option for you.
Hey, it's your life, so I won't make any more trouble for you than you already have. It has been a hot summer, I'll give you that. I would be curious to hear, though, what was it that finally convinced you to change your hair, and hear about how short you intend to go. I would be interested to know, because I am growing my hair out now and want to know what changed your mind, so I'll know what to look out for myself.
If I remember right, you are in high school(?), and are probably not willing to return to school with your hair being longer after the summer. Just a guess.

It's the test of time that makes you a long hair.
Getting to the awkard is easy. Getting past the awkard stage discourages most people but it does give them a preview of what's to come so they can decide whether or not they can make the committment.
Whatever you choose is the right choice, as long as you made the choice yourself.

I wondered what happened to you, InUtero. Too bad, I will miss you as
a fellow longhair . The decision must
be yours. I think a person is either born with the desire for and
love of long hair or they are not. It is not something that can be
forced. And yes, longhair takes more work and dedication. Hopefully we still can be friends
and maybe "talk" sometimes. Good luck with whatever you do with your
hair man.
cheers, MG
your hair...

... your choice. you're not barred from posting just because you cut. certainly there's some value in the experiences you've had growing it out.
good luck with your new hair style- hey, long hair isn't for every guy.

Like someone else said...your hair, your decision.
I just wish you'd have held out a little longer. Once you learn how to manage it, you'd see it gets a lot easier.
Feel free to come back and tell us how your cut is and how much/ if you like it. Post some updated pics.
Good luck, man!

I always regret to hear a haircut story, but you gotta do what you gotta do. I respect your decision. Just do us all one favor: Don't start posting to the BuzzBoard!

its your decision to make, you've said before you were thinking of cutting it. you've definately followed the all important two week rule so its not a rash decision.
Im sure everyone will miss you here, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Paul
