Which animal is telling women to dye their hair? Get high lights or low lights. Possibly a gecko or a zebra?

Also which animal tells us to curl our straight hair or straighten our curly hair?

I'd like to have a meeting with these animals.

[–] Sparkles@fedia.io 16 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I would like to meet the one that convinces me to ruin my curls every 3 months by straightening and give it a few stern words.

[–] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I hate that people always talk about curls and how 'jealous' they are that I have them. It's like, "bitches, you don't know what curly hair is like!" Fucking straight people don't understand how combing it makes it look worse, or how it ties itself in literal knots that make sailors jealous. My hair lady seems to be the only person to understand how freaking tough it is to maintain while long.

[–] Sparkles@fedia.io 2 points 3 weeks ago

Oh yeah, it’s insanity and it can be so inexpensive and unfair. I finally found a wide tooth comb with the correct spacing and have settled on “once a week” for comb out, conditioning. I have nearly stopped washing with soap (just rinse).

Figuring out routine and products is nightmare. Then the voice “just do a blow out” wins. And it’s a week of frizz. Worse is getting compliments when it’s straight only.

[–] Sparkles@fedia.io 33 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Very accurate. I’ve finally reached that butt length “chop it all off” part of the circle again. I save a picture of “short hair” me just as a reminder not to go all the way. The crow can heck off. I like bangs.

[–] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

My wife has bangs. Had them since 2007. I love it.

Use a clarifying shampoo. Will help.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 23 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

What's wrong with bangs? They're fucking hot

[–] Jerkface@lemmy.world 22 points 3 weeks ago

Easy to mess up, hard to maintain.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago

What’s wrong with bangs?


absolutely nothing

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Often look like the equivalent of putting a bowl on your head and cutting hair like that.

Buy when executed well? To each their own, I don't think they look great personally, but that's like, just my opinion man

[–] harambe69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I had gorgeous golden locks as a kid. The moment I had to wash and comb it on my own, I got it all chopped. Sometime later, I started wondering how I'd look with longer hair. Grew it out. Not bad, but not worth the effort either. Chopped it all off again. I'm a guy btw.

[–] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

My pubes glow with the light of ten thousand radiant suns.

[–] i_dont_want_to@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 3 weeks ago

I like short hair. I hate styling hair. Pony tail it is.

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I would love to chop it all off and rock short hair but that would look so dumb on me. Woe :(

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I once accidentally shaved my head. That is how I learned I won't look good if I ever go bald.

[–] swab148@anarchist.nexus 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Same, I have a big beard so I looked like a literal clown

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

I have a great big bushy beard now, but at the time I believe I was just sporting a goatee. Not sure if that makes it better or worse.

I shave my head year-round and I grow a long beard in the winter. I just can't figure out how to handle the transition well. Like, here? Maybe here? Fade it? I dunno. A goatee solves the problem but nothing says bitter old dude like a baldheaded goatee.

[–] DivineDev@piefed.social 11 points 3 weeks ago

Long hair when it's freshly washed: :D

Long hair when you need to take a shower AGAIN: ;_;

[–] Makeshift@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 weeks ago

I used to be adamant to keep my long hair. I hated caring for it. Grandother kept suggesting I try short hair.

Grandma was right. When I finally tried short hair... Never again do I want the head-heavy pain-generating mess-prone burden of long hair. I cut that shit when it's long enough to reach my chin.

[–] Aljernon@lemmy.today 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Bangs are so damn cute though

[–] Bubbaonthebeach@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

For 2 weeks and then they are too long but it isn't time to get the rest of your hair trimmed. So for the next 4-10 weeks they are just a mess. I love short hair but then I need it cut every 4 to 6 weeks so I usually end up growing it out so it only needs to be cut every 6 months. Sometimes I really understand Dolly and her wigs and wish I could wear one without sweating like crazy. Don't even get me started on the wavy/curly that becomes a frizz bomb as soon as there is a hint of rain but cannot use any product on it without looking like Snape's sister.

[–] FeatherConstrictor@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Get your hair stylist to teach you how to trim your own bangs :)

I get a full trim every 12 weeks, and my stylist lets me stop by for a like 10 minute bangs trim after 6 weeks and doesn't even charge me!

[–] phar@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago

As a guy I have to get my haircut every 3 weeks otherwise I look like a big Q-tip

[–] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

I was in a really bad place mentally a while back and almost got bangs. My hairdresser talked me out of it.

[–] sunbrrnslapper@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

I think my second wolf are the first one. The crow continues to be a problem.

[–] limonade@jlai.lu 7 points 3 weeks ago

This is true. No exageration. No emphasise. No approximation trying to be funny. Truth.

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Hey bangs are nice :( just not DIY bangs that stem from “ohmygod-my-hair-is-too-heavy-gtfo-my-face” energy, which is hard to resist.

Every time I get a haircut I like going shorter though, just a matter of convincing the stylist to let me get a mullet/undercut since they think it’ll “look like a bad haircut” and seem convinced it’ll ruin their reputation lol. Just let me indulge my trashy instincts please and thank you! 😂

[–] slowmorella@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 3 weeks ago

fuck this crow fr

[–] M137@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

More power to the crow! I love bangs on women, makes my knees weak.

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 4 points 3 weeks ago

I know someone where all 3 are bat shit crazy some of the time every month.

[–] normalexit@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Bangs with a long mullet and shaved sides. Treat yourself queens.

[–] AyuTsukasa@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago

Excuse me but I think my long hair wolf ate my short hair wolf.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Sometimes, I wish I was born as a woman. I get sexually harassed and put down anyway. But I like these kinds of problems better.

[–] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

david attenborough voice And here we have an egg cracking. It's a wonderful sight to behold!

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 2 weeks ago

Hey, I still have you know...still feel like a man. I just objectively think it would be better if I was not (not saying women have it all easy and aren't discriminated)

[–] akdas@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

As a man, I relate to this meme. The first wolf is winning :)

As a man, my wolves are hairless and my crow has no feathers. The problem of what to do with my hair would be nice to have.
