I need to get my haircut soon, but every time I get my hair cut I get wangsty because they shave off what little sideburn I have in an attempt to square them off. My sideburns Is there anything I can do with them, or have the stylist do with them, that would solve this problem? I'm fine with makeup, if it comes down to it, since I already do it for my eyebrows. I need something there to frame my face, so I can't just go without sideburns, but I'd prefer to avoid the overly fake looking faux sideburns I see a lot of short-haired girls have.
Do you want the bad news or the bad news? The Wolverine look is just not going to work. It's way too wispy. There's like 5 hairs! You could try dropping some more hair down from above the ears and ask them to make it a spiky V-shape like Spock, but I don't know. Is shaved around the ears punk-ish style an option?
I'll take the bad news first and save the bad news for later...Ha. All joking aside, I'm glad you're being honest with me. I have considered the shaved punk look, but I don't think I'm brave enough to shave any part of my head...at the moment... Maybe some day in the future. I have had the Spock look before and it works for me but my hair grows so fast it ends up looking bushy within a week. I might just have to invest in a good pair of hair scissors and stick with that until I can get on T. If it helps anyone advise me on my hair woes, here's what my hair generally looks like: Link
I got 6mm sides just recently myself, leaving the top a more classic 5cm. I REALLY like how it feels and I might bring it down to 3-4mm for the summer, if I'm also feeling brave. The skin shows through a lot, but somehow it's not pasty white any more, which is also a confidence boost. http://i.imgur.com/NFuFmh8.jpg For me it's also a bit weird and confusing though! It's basically a pixie cut and on a guy it probably looks more feminine, and I have some inner conflict about that. But for women, that is, FAAB, I think it gives a more masculine look, even if it's purely cultural expectations.
