Male hair length
-
I buzz it to about 1/8-th inch every two weeks. My hair is very thin on top, and I've got a substantial bald spot. My philosophy: "If you haven't got it, flaunt it."

Reminds me of a Visual Studio T-Shirt that I have that reads: Do More with Less. I will never wear that shirt; I kept it, because it is the ONLY Microsoft T-Shirt that I own, and I was given this one for Free, and let's face-it, no one in their right mind would actually buy a shirt with that statement on it...

I've been growing my hair all summer and am trying to decide whether to cut it short again or not. Most men around here on the west coast of Canada have short hair if they are under 30 but it seems to be progressively longer by age until the 60-ish and older at which point it seems short hair is the fashion. My theory is that this correlates with what was popular in the high school of their day. I'm 39 and long hair was definitely "in" when I was in high school amongst my clique (headbangers). I've also noticed that the more overweight men on average seem to have longer hair than the skinnier men. I'm curious what the pattern is around the world that you've seen and what your hair length is and is it a choice or default.

I'm into my 50's and up until I turned 50, I had pretty long hair with a pony tail and a lot of facial hair (think ZZ Top). But about 3 years ago, I had my daughters cut off my beard, pony tail and shave my head to within about 1/4 inch. Everybody said that I looked like I lost 20 years, so I've stayed this way ever since. The biggest plus for me though is that I now get an extra 5 minutes in the morning 'cause I don't have a lot of hair to brush and dry. On the other hand, while I don't have to shave everyday, I still forget sometimes to shave and it isn't until a couple of days of stubble show up and I have a :doh: moment that I remember that I have to shave. :) Incidently, my profile pic[^] is pre-makeover. :)

No wonder I cut my hair! I had to stay in fashion! ;P I cut about 2/3 of a meter, about two foot plus off my hair. :) I have short, but no buzz cuts.

At 1/4", I'm feeling like a hippy. I've not had time to trim it, however.

Bad Astronomy |VCF|wxWidgets|WTLReminds me of a T-shirt one of the development groups got here a few years back. We build high-speed ink jet printing systems, and we were developing a new four inch wide printhead. Some idiot decided it would be cool to get everyone a T-shirt that said: 4 Inch Team on the front. Needless to say, the guys in the group weren't impressed.

I'm 39 as well...I've had my hair cut short (1/4 inch all over) since I was about 35 - I prefer it that way. I tried growing it long when I was younger - but it grew out, not down - natural afro!

I had a pony tail for much of my younger days. At 41 I still let my hair grow long when the mood hits me. I've had it short the last couple months though. At most I have three haircuts a year.

All of my male hairs are the same length, but they think they're longer than they really are.

I spent roughly 12 of the last 20 years with long hair. About 5 years ago I was surfing around TV one night and I came to a horrible conclusion. Only Professional Wrestlers and certain sports personalities (mostly hockey players and stock car drivers) still had long hair. Hell, even Metalica had shaved it all off years before. This was a stunning realization, and I promptly went to the barber and I haven't looked back since. I sometimes miss the simplicity of only getting a haircut every 6-12 months to trim things up, but for the most part... chicks just don't dig long hair anymore.

Jerry Seinfeld had a joked that most men take the best year in their lives and dress according to what was in fashion that year. I guess this includes hair fashion.
