It may be be...I have to say I don't get it either. It may be because my dad has had the same haircut for the past oh 33 years ... military short. I had friends in high school that had the longer hair, but it was usually one length and somewhat neat (not really in the eyes). I think a lot of the guys had short messy hair ... I'd have to go back and look at pictures. It wasn't military short but for the most part wasn't extremely long either. I knew quite a few that would shave their heads at least once a year (swimmers). I don't get the long shaggy hair, nor the baggy pants. Thankfully, I don't see the long hair much but I am amazed at the either (a) too large pants or (b) too small pants that I see when we get to wear civilian clothes. I like a nice short cut personally.Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08360314407439787462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752423.post-61335008714536470282009-02-02T23:08:00.000-05:002009-02-02T23:08:00.000-05:00Yeah, the extra shaggy beetles look is not the hot...Yeah, the extra shaggy beetles look is not the hottest look I've every seen on a guy.

Ashley knows all about that. I let her know when I think a guys hair is too long or is to off the wall for me. I know with our generation then some guys had their hair long but it was always neat. Either pulled back or at least NOT IN THE FACE. The Man had long hair at one point. Don't know if he remembers that but mom has pictures. I'll have to see if I can find any and send you copies. There are a few men that I think would look absolutely rediculous without long hair. Trace Adkins is the first one to come to mind. I just love his hair. And of course he keeps it nice and neat and out of his face. So I totally understand where you are coming from on this subject. Tell Paige I may be old fashioned or out of touch with her generation but long hair on guys MUST BE kept NEAT and OUT OF THE FACE as far as I am concerned. It just looks better.Busy Texas Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18245762117492235343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752423.post-53520132428505662032009-02-02T18:21:00.000-05:002009-02-02T18:21:00.000-05:00As a mother of a teenage boy who wanted to grow hi...As a mother of a teenage boy who wanted to grow his hair...hum, his father being the clean cut military all the way, get your cut three times a week deal...I said let him grow out. Now, his hair wasnt like the hang in your eyes, jerk your head hairdo..his was thick, get bushy like a ball on his head!!! The father was fittin' to be tied....but my reply....in this day and time, you have to pick your battles...if he wanted that hairdo, leave him alone...he father finally gave in and agreed and thankfully, the boy asked for a haircut!!!! He could be cutting school, disrespectful, smoking dope, drinking, robbing someone, etc...it was hair, it wasnt all that bad!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752423.post-8450111238882530982009-02-02T14:54:00.000-05:002009-02-02T14:54:00.000-05:00"Poor thing.

He turned to look at me and I bestowed upon him a sweet smile and wide innocent eyes. "<BR/><BR/>Bwaa haaaa haaaa! I love love LOVE it! Pure southern bitchi/niceness!<BR/><BR/>Our friends son has the hairstyle - and does the jerk thing too. I remember the boys having the long hair when I was in middle school (that about right?) and I have to say I think it looks okay. However NOW you will have me hung up on the jerking too thanks to your post. <BR/>Lord I am STILL laughing though. I don't think I could take too much around you, i'd have to wear depends!<BR/><BR/>That being said, the thing that makes me want to claw my eyes out and snatch somebody up so fast that they have a wedgie or a levi tab hanging out of their nose is the sagging pants. Drive.Me.Nuts. Hurt somebody nuts.

Pick your battles. But it looks so shaggy and dirty and sloppy, he looks homeless (although he comes from a well-off, and quite conservative, family). Oh well, at least he's at church!<BR/><BR/>P.S. I don't mind the moptop if it's well-kept and skims above the eyes, like the oh-so-cute Zac Efron.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13071122928324523731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752423.post-71149799346024720362009-02-02T13:33:00.000-05:002009-02-02T13:33:00.000-05:00Miss Hope, I could not agree with you more! Where ...Miss Hope, I could not agree with you more! Where I live, it seems the trend with the teen boys here is some degree of androgeny(sp?) And that goes for some of the girls too. I mean, with the long, gross shaggy hair, and those skinny tight jeans, it's really hard to tell boy from girl, girl from boy! <BR/><BR/>It used to drive me nuts watching the boys walk around with their pants down around their ankles, but I'd rather see that than those gross skinny jeans!<BR/><BR/>Maybe we should start a movement across the country: A scissor brigade. Work in teams of two, one person hold 'em down, the other cuts the hair right above the eyes to prevent such head jerking!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752423.post-14031786305403259522009-02-02T13:23:00.000-05:002009-02-02T13:23:00.000-05:00You took the words straight out of my mouth.I thin...You took the words straight out of my mouth.<BR/><BR/>I think they must have bad neck problems with all that jerking and swaying of their heads back and forth.<BR/><BR/>It is really a bad habit to start, because like you said "they don't even know that they are doing it."cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13469623411580410242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752423.post-63906554158057515142009-02-02T11:46:00.000-05:002009-02-02T11:46:00.000-05:00you are so funny!

Ok so he is 20 and I cant say much (except complain about the hair ALL the time) and I took him shopping for his last few pairs of pants, which by the way ARE the correct size but I dont understand how they can fit the right way at the store but the first time he wears them, with a belt mind you, they are just about under his butt cheeks!!
