    Heyy all :slight_smile:

    I just have a question about hair stuff :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: So I've finally got my hair grown out to a good length, long enough that I'm thinking about going in for a haircut soon, but I was wondering about potential haircuts/styles... I'm goth, so I'd want something that kinda reflects that in a way, and I also want a haircut that looks feminine, but not so feminine that it's really obvious that I got a girls haircut (not that I don't want a girls haircut, it's just that my parents will get really angry if I do and everybody at my school will make fun of me even more because of it :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:)...

    So to summarize, I'm looking for a haircut that:
    -Utilizes long hair
    -Works with a gothic style
    -Looks feminine
    -Isn't so feminine that it's obvious that it's a girls haircut (You can push this pretty far, just nothing ultra girly or I'll run into some issues :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:)

    I know that's kinda specific, but any help that people could give would be much appreciated... Thanks :slight_smile:
     
  2. You could do a sidecut, both sides shaved, or if you're feeling brave, a deathhawk.

    How old are you? I'm using this as a proxy for facial features before advising. My friend and her fiance are goths so, I may have some ideas...

    Dreadlocks? Gender neutral, gothic and works great with long hair.

    Thanks for the responses :slight_smile:

    @Hermione: I checked out the deathhawk, and while it does look totally awesome and badassed, I don't think it's what I'm looking for :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: Thanks for the idea though :slight_smile:

    @Gates: I'm 15, almost 16, if you wanna see some pics you can add me :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: I'd be interested to hear your ideas :slight_smile:

    @Axxel: I actually kinda like that one... May end up going with it :slight_smile:

    Thanks again :slight_smile:

    what about Elsa's hairstyle off of Frozen I always thought that. that was quite a gothic hairstyle (went you ignore the blue dress and stuff and just focus on the hair)

    You could just leave it down and straighten it if its not already. when i was your age i was goth (still kinda am) and i had long red hair with a kind of choppy cut with black streaks going through it, its not obviously girly and alot of my friends male and female had it.

    The ones listed as "Kohl Eyes," "Emo Guy," and "Hunk" are all nice and feminine (but the pics give "proof" that they aren't *technically* women's cuts). Hunk is actually the lead singer for a Korean band DBSK. 35 Magnificent Emo Hairstyles For Guys - SloDive

    This one is nice and leaves more length in front. Add highlights to make it less of a "girl cut." Edgy Purple Hair Highlights

    #10 or #13 but if 13, ask for it to be angled to be longer in front and undercut the whole thing. Men's Long Hairstyles - Long Hairstyles for Men

    Again, ask to softly angle the front: https://www.google.com/search?q=lon...AQ&biw=360&bih=592#biv=i|56;d|Cmsj0bLLIIu6-M:
