Hair is one of the first things I notice about a guy. It tells you a lot about who the guy is. I like a guy who takes care of his hair. I hate when a guy just lets his hair go, he doesn’t brush it, he doesn’t wash it regularly — it is a mess. I hate that. I feel like there is a nice balance between messy and Ryan Seacrest. It’s a turn on if he’s got that slightly messy but clean and taken care of look.
Long hair is very hit or miss with me. I feel like a lot of effort needs to be put in for it to actually look good. Rock stars, some movie stars and a handful of male models look good with long hair. They also have the benefit of stylists and a whole team of professionals with styling tools that would intimidate even me. For the real men, long hair just never quite works. It isn’t practical. Can a guy with long hair ever fit in at a family wedding? Although I do like that he would understand how much shampoo I go through.
Believe it or not, I can dig the bald look. A lot of guys can pull it off. Not all guys can but a select few can and should embrace it. I really like the bald look if he has a little bit of scruff going on. In general, I like a little bit of scruff on a guy. I think a lot of women like the slightly scruffy look. Since we are on the topic, No Shave November takes advantage of this. I believe that I speaking for most girls when I say, it needs to end. It really is just an excuse for guys to be lazy. It doesn’t look good to the point that it is a little disgusting.
Most of all, I hate when it’s full of product and you can see the comb marks. I am not sure that guys realize how much a lot of women care about a guy’s hair. If you have a bad haircut, I will not be able to stop looking at it. Hair frames your entire face. That bad haircut may become the only thing that I remember about you.
