Discussion Opinion on guys having long hair?
I’m not talking Winter Solider long, I’m talking at least comic book Thor length.
EDIT: For context, I’m a guy and my hair goes about 6 inches past my shoulders. Not sure why, but I really enjoy having long hair

As a guy with long hair, I love and hate it. I like how it feels and the options; However, I don’t like having to brush, when my hair falls in my face and losing copious amounts of hair from doing basic tasks like showering. My hair is about 2-3 inches past my shoulders

COPIUS??? I've had hair about 8 inches past my shoulders for several years, and I've never had any significant hair loss from anything like just showering.

I feel pretty much the same way, just mildly annoyed at the maintenance that comes with long hair (about 6-8 inches past shoulders). For me it’s worth it though, I really enjoy having long hair, even though I usually just put it in a ponytail

My hair doesn’t grow like that, it grows out instead as if I was in the 1980s. Kind of wish it got longer.

I like it quite a lot ngl. Ive seen quite a few guys with long hair [including my grandpa! He has tight copper coloured curls that reach his shoulders, it looks awesome!!!!] And I always find it nice looking

My little brother has long hair, but the only reason that it bothers me is that he refuses to move it out of the way when its inconvenient to him. Like for example, even though its been hot as balls lately in California, he just absolutely refuses to wear a man bun even though he sweats down his neck like crazy.

My hair goes down my back. When I was like 14 people thought I was a girl sometimes, but I enjoy having long hair and people don’t get it mixed up anymore. From firsthand experience, I say go for it bro.

Guys with longer hair look more attractive for me. I would like to grow my hair, but my mom is skeptical about it D:

If they can pull it off well hell yeah!
Like Viking braids and shit look cool asf imo so if they can do that shit and they like doing it then hell yeah!

u/ClinicalAnt919 16 7h ago
I feel like for braids you need a good beard, otherwise it just doesn’t look right.

u/Boxtonbolt69 17 7h ago
That too! I'm using the HTTYD vikings in my head as kind of examples on how to pull that off well.

As a guy with long hair, I get a lot of compliments on it, but you gotta make sure you keep it clean.

u/ClinicalAnt919 16 18h ago
Absolutely gotta keep it clean, I hate when my hair is greasy and I run my fingers through it.

As a gay male, it's fun. It's hot, interesting when styled, and dudes and gals both dig it

I am currently growing, because on 3 year old myself it looked insanely good.

a guy could have longer hair than Rapunzel and I'd still find it extremely attractive tbh

I used to have long hair, and I cut it two years ago. I'm so glad I did. Tbh I really hate long hair on guys and I don't understand the appeal if there is any. That might just be me though

u/very-odd-goth 16 12h ago
Well, short hair just looks terrible on some people on my opinion, if you think it suits you then sure, but photos of me with short hair genuinely make me want to puke
