Coming from you, that's rather amusing. Probably accurate, but still amusing.

Almost three inches. I don't look good with very short hair so I avoid getting a hair cut for as long as I can.

Well, unless you mean literally crazy, you're not exactly normal. Neither is anyone else, though, so you're in good company. :D (We just debated this in a Phi Sigma Tau meeting...everyone's probably slightly neurotic under the psychological definition, but it generally doesn't affect life too much).

Currently *pulls out a hair to measure* ~2.66 inches.

Normally about 1/2" on top and 1/4 on the sides. (I'm always told I look like McVeigh *grumble*)

Currently I think I'll try to let it grow out a bit, but that means using gel, and I hate putting anything in my hair.... That stuff just feels grody... But then again the usual afro I develop around 3" is more annoying...

My rule is my hair has to reach my eyes, any shorter than that and it starts sticking up all over the place and gets unmanageable. I would get a buzzcut but I look like a fucking dork when my hair's that short. When my hair starts flopping in my face and blinding me then it's time to get it trimmed back to eye level, this usually happens 3 times a year or so.

Hair

Down to the small of my back behind, bangs at eyebrow length in front. Very basic style and the long part's easy to roll up into a little bun for work.

It usually goes down to my neck, and I get it cut every couple of months. It tends to grow out, covering the ears. But I like it like that, since really hort hair makes my ears look big.

My hair grows so damn fast that I have to cut it to damn near a buzz whenever I go to the barber's. Else I'd be back in the salon every 3 weeks.

You didn't get laid when you were my age, either.


BTW, watch the thinly veiled threats. The IAO is always watching!

Well...I generally get it cut down so I can just comb it, whatever it may be at the time. It makes me look normal; If I grow it out to my current length (Maybe a smidge shorter), I look a lot like a hobbit to any set of male eyes. However, to female eyes it seems to appear to be 18th-19th century style. Because it's a lot of fun to look like both a hobbit and a victorian-looking guy, I generally keep it at my current length. I can't really give an accurate number because my hair it freaking curly! It was worse when I was younger, but it's still pretty damn bad. When I was young I was thought to have the white-guy afro.


Currently, I delcare that my hair steals and devours newborns, then makes DivX players from them (See Penny Arcade Comic: http://www.penny-arcade.com/view.php3?date=1999-01-15

Mr. Wong don't ban Hemlock, he apears to be going through Caffine withdrawl or some such. I refer to a thread in the BoTM. If you must chastise him but give him time and don't ban him please.
