Hair Length

How long is your hair? (on your head)

EDIT: Mine is around 1 cm.

Wanderer · Post by **Wanderer** » 2006-09-09 06:27pm

I keep my hair manageable. My Wife keeps hers past her waist.

Uh, why are you asking. If you want to start a hair collection drive to make wigs for chemo patients just outright say so

I like nice and short hair. Not 1cm short, but close. Makes getting cleaned up easy and I need to spend no time with my hair. Dries in an instant.

Welcome to sd.net. People ask stuff like that around here on a semi-regular basis. I have no clue why either but they keep doing it (of course the default assumption is it's a conspiracy).
I keep my hair at about a cm or thereabouts, longer over my forehead.
I used to go 9mm overall no questions asked for a long time because frankly, it's extremely low maintanenance.

It just barely touches my shoulders.

It's about fourty centimeters right now. After I get camera shots of myself with the long hair, it'll be much much shorter.

I need to see if there's one here in my city. I want to cut my hair short but at the same time I don't want it to go to waste on the barber's floor. Maybe I'll drag my brother along as he has long hair too.

barely under 2 cm, and that's just because of military regs.

The max cutoff point is two inches? Man, what time-warped 50s place do you live in?

My hair is definately more than five centimeters: it's about 25 centimeters long. I am not a fan of the "90th percentile" cut whatsoever.

Something in the ballpark of 450cm at the moment.

That's fifteen feet.

5 cm limit? Are you joking? I think my hair was longer than that when I was born.

Currently, about 60 cm. I've had it over a meter long, perhaps 120 cm at it's longest but at that point I'm sitting on it way too often. I get 50-60 cm lopped off and donate it to charity at that point, then just let it grow again.

I have to keep my hair cropped to stop it going all Welsh and curly. It's about 1.5cm now, and styled like you wouldn't believe.

Hey, its the Air Force, they think long hair on men is unprofessional, and short hair on women is also going away, I don't understand it, maybe they just want to live in their image of how young people should have their hair.

What the fucking christ, man?

Mine's a little over 80 cm, that is, about 32 inches.

I guess he didn't think that there were any women on the board. Or, you know, people who like long hair...

My hair's about 2 cm, I think.

You going for some grotesque hair world record?

Mine's over 3 Terminator 3 dvd cases long, however long that is.

Edit: Apparently, the standard length of a dvd case is 19.2 cm, so...

probably about 60cm.

Batman · Post by **Batman** » 2006-09-09 08:52pm

Something tells me there's a zero in there that doesn't belong but otherwise WHOAH!
And to think I get uncomfortable when mine exceeds an inch or so.

aerius · Post by **aerius** » 2006-09-09 09:02pm

Never measured length, but I'd estimate it's somewhere in the 10-15cm range depending on the time of year. I get my hair cut when it gets down to the tip of my nose or about 2/3 down my ears, whichever comes first.

edit: I did have a mullet once, I think I grew it to about 15-20cm.

Einhander Sn0m4n · Post by **Einhander Sn0m4n** » 2006-09-09 09:08pm

Mine was around 40cm long, now it's around 18. No worries, I'm still LHBC-legal.

Batman · Post by **Batman** » 2006-09-09 09:14pm

Whatever that means.
As far as I'm concerned the moment I have to bother with my hair beyond washing and drying it, it's too long.

rhoenix · Post by **rhoenix** » 2006-09-09 09:19pm

Once upon a time, I had a ponytail down to the small of my back. Now, it's about 1cm long, and stayed that way for the past two years.

I routinely buzz my hair 'cause I hate fucking with it.

Dammit, that's what happens when I suddenly have to jump back to metric after not using it for a while! In the english system, I'd go about 18". There, that's a bit away for fifteen feet.

My hair is currently over 5 centimeters. I was thinking about growing it out, but I decided against it.

The Spartan · Post by **The Spartan** » 2006-09-09 10:19pm

The length varies across my scalp but when I get it cut what I'll say to the lady doing the cutting is, "Give me a fade with a number one comb blended into about an inch on top." So, at it's longest when cut, it's roughly 2.5 centimeters
