Default Anybody not cut their hair yet?

Due to COVID I haven't had a haircut in over 10 weeks. I usually keep it real short but I kind of like it grown out, now that it has started to behave. I haven't had my hair this long since the 90s!

Anybody else letting it all hang out?

Nope...I lost most of my hair on top in my late thirties.
I’ve been shaving my head since then.
I am jealous though.

Just noticed today that my hair is longer than it was in high school. not as log (yet) as in middle school.

In another month I can effectively use a hair tie.

I have a full head of hair and haven’t had it cut since early January, cut short just before we headed south for the winter. Returned north mid-March way earlier than usual and just ahead of when snowbirds did en-masse. My hair isn’t that long yet, but is the longest for me since the ‘70s.

Don't be too jealous. Mine's all grey now. I started going grey in my teens.

If Great Clips doesn’t open soon I’m going to have to get a bandana and either go Axl Rose or braid it and go as Willie Nelson. Just depends on what kind of music I’m playing.

Doug...I like mine in a "flat top". Lately I'm wearing a "bush Top"...

I got tired of paying for haircuts, so I bought an electric clipper and my wife has become a very proficient barber. I get a cut every few weeks.

Totally embracing the shaggy. My wife is going nuts about it because she’s the one that’s always telling me to go get a haircut. Having a full head of hair at 44 should be celebrated by letting it grow!

I did the same thing, minus the wife part. I now cut my own hair.

I've been cutting my own hair for a few years now. Every 2-3 months I just take it down to a 5 with my electric clippers.

Neither my beard or hair (such as it is) have been trimmed since sometime in February. I'm looking pretty scrufty.

I haven't had a haircut in months now. I usually wear a short full beard, but decided I'd start rocking a 'stache in honor of the plague - so that a face mask would actually seal to my face.

My style currently looks a LOT like this, lolz:



Except I don't own a Guild - and there's no way I could play a guitar with such a narrow nut!

I don't care what you hippies do, I've been keeping my sheep shears busy trimming my own hair for years.
