I hate getting my hair cut. I haven't had it done since February.
I'm probably going to use the donation excuse. :P

Do you ever nick yourself? I mean. isn't it easy to cut oneself if you are going all the way to bald, especially since you're not dealing with a flat surface? :? :twisted:

I haven't had one since....fall, 2006. I tried that stupid "runway bangs" trend.

Haven't had it cut since then. It's two feet long now, and I don't think I'll ever cut it.

Look for me in Guinness!

I let my mother cut my hair. It's cheaper. She knows what she's doing too. ^_^

I never have. What I use can't cut you from shaving. The blades I use are plastic.

I try to get it cut at least once a year or so. I can cut mine alright- a talent I learned when my ex wouldn't take me to get my hair done before he became my ex, but I relatively prefer going to a salon because they can at least fix it if they mess up. I prefer my hair to be an A-line, but when I take it in my control, I try to keep the layers pretty uniform.

I haven´t cut my hair since september last year.

A few months ago I showed a classmate some pictures that were taken around september and he realized then that I used to have my hair shortly cut.

Right now my hair is a mess I am going to wait sometime to see if it grows a little otherwise I am probably having a hair cut as soon as college starts again.

I shave my head every month or two... with a #1. Feels good & dries quickly!

hair cuts are no good. I dont trust people with scissors next to my face. and I sure as heck am extra picky about how or who is cutting it. But I feel it has to be done atleast once every 6 months or more

Another reason my drill sergeants saved me for last was not just for s**ts and giggles but they were afraid I was going to have a meltdown and attack the barber. They saw me when I was a squad leader freak out on someone who was fooling around and got someone hurt. They would always joke that if I was ever captured I would endure the torture but not any haircuts the enemy would give me. :P


well, you were able to accomplish being a squad leader, that is pretty advanced IMHO. i never qualified to be the leader of the laundromat much less anything involving other living people.


I started basic training durring a zero week where they use privates to straighten up the barracks. Durring the zero week the drill sargeants used me as a messanger. I quickly learned where everything was on the base and found ways to get there and back quickly. I also knew the effecive ranges the commonly used weapons of NATO nations and the Soviet Nations. I could also identify Soviet nations armored vehicles by their profile. So they had me pegged to be a squad leader the middle of the zero week. Being autistic paid off big time for me I guess.

Until a few months ago I hadn't been to the hairdressers since I was small. MY step mum used to be hair dresser so I'd ask her or do it myself, with varying results! I wanted something different so went to the hair dressers thinking I could then after maintain it myself. He washed my hair too and I found the whole think really odd and uncomfortable and glad it didn't take to long. Am not keen on people touching me, in crowds and stuff like that and especially my head

I like getting my hair cut but I know people who refuse to get theirs cut even though they look bedraggled and frumpy with unkempt hair. I suspect that learning to cut it one's self is probably the best solution.
