My old haircut
Since wednesday:
Nothing but benefits, except for the fact that some people (shopkeepers mostly) look at me as if I'm a shoplifter. Today the alarm of a shop went off because I was carrying an item I bought a couple of minutes earlier in another shop. This happens quite often, and in the past most of the owners would go 'whatever' and didn't bother. Not anymore. In a few seconds the entrance was blocked, they searched my pack, etc...

Talk about judging people on their appearance  | wow, is there some kind of weird inverse rule for the shopkeepers where you live? they trust the hippie longhair but they doubt the guy with the short conservative cut? that's bizarre.

When I finely did get my hair cut an older coworker asked me If I noticed people I haven't met before treating me any different. My answer was for the most part, no, but I kind of miss having long hair for that reason. He gave a  look. Then I told them, now I don't know who's prejudiced or not. |

Here in America they would almost always question the guy with the longish hair rather than the dude with it buzzed off.
Anyways... lookin' good.

But Seriously. I got a hair cut too. not that short. Used to be down past my shoulder blades, and now it's maybe 2 inches long all around? |

Now I look like an adult... dammit... But at least I don't have the wife anymore...  |

I was planning to ask that very question when I got to the end. Many years ago, I had long hair, and I had trouble even finding somebody to rent me an apartment. Both of my sons have had long hair, and gotten hassled for no reason (mainly by cops). That's why I found it so odd that the OP's experience was just the opposite. Strange...

I can't stand my hair being long. At all. But not as short as the op's. It's maybe 1/4-1/2 inch usually. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
