Dont do it. i am in the same boat.
ive had long hair since leaving school.
told everyone i was going to cut it when i turned 30. then when i turned 30 my excuse was that i am 30 for a whole year so i got all that time to do it.
im 31 in a couple weeks so now i gotta come up with a new excuse :)

Next thing they will want me to stop listening to metal and start using man makeup.

so im keeping mine for a while yet. I really am no good at change.

Keep it Hemi!

I have never really noticed it when we have been on the track but i did in that 2nd session when you outbraked me. It is really distracting and it took me a couple of corners to stop watching your hair fly about and concentrate on what i was doing.

Will be great if your in a race, will distract some of the riders. I think you should dye it so it really stands out. If you cant have a green bike at least your hair could be.

Just don't do what I did the first time I cut off my hair when I was 19. I went from backside length hair (about 1 meter long) to scalp length hair - about 4cms long. My hairdresser gave me the 3rd degree, had I just broken up with someone, had I just come out of the closet, had I etc etc, and then sent me down the road for a coffee to really think it over. I had been thinking about it for months, so another 15 mins wasn't going to deter me! ;) Cut it off, had a fabulous colour done (black with purple tips, and have had fabulous colours ever since), then three days later was in floods of tears sobbing "I want my hair back!" :lol:

It feels really weird when you brush/comb it, the resistance against the brush is too short a time, and the back of your neck feels cold if you have it done during the cooler weather.
Cheers,
Anne

Mate I was riding behind you and Jen on the weekend, I think your flowing locks were getting more attention than Jen's!

And as I said on Sunday, if you ever end up in the clink, you'll be very popular!

Cut it man, I'm just jealous I don't have enough hair to have your problem! :lol:

I would not feel so bad about cutting it if I knew some money was going to charity, so I think I might go ahead with it.

Oh and 2 pages is nothing - this is a big thing for me, as it is for most men who have long hair. I know I am going to freak out at first, I probably won't know how to control my neck and certainly will not recognize my own reflection for some time.


contact brittney spears!! :lol: she can tell you where to go to donate! she got like $1 million for her hair!! she went ALL BALD!! :lol: :lol:

anyways, it has taken me like....4-5 years to get my hair as long as it is now...if you cut it...just cut it to your chin line. other than that, it looks good the way it is. but if you do decide to cut it...don't cut it and then regret it. I'd take baby steps. 8)
Life is not based on the past, but what lies ahead of you...don't let old things keep you down, let what lies in store for you hold your chin up!

Spartans - long hair.
Vikings - long hair.
Steven Seagal - long hair.

Throughout history, bad muthafuckas everywhere have had long hair.

Enough said.

(mine's staying until it falls out, and then I'm getting a scalp reduction :thumbup:)
