bowlcut baby Gideon is so important to me (the nuns were NOT doing her favors with those shears) but consider: tweenaged Gideon holding up a picture of her favorite comic hero and begging Aiglamene for a Cool Haircut and Aiglamene (has had the same crewcut since she joined the cohort aged 14 and has been maintaining it ever since) is like: Okay Kid I Will Try My Best (it does not look good)

ugh. My hair has grown into a sensory nightmare mop and it’s once again gotten to the point that I can’t think about anything else. It prickles CONSTANTLY and with the weather getting warmer it’s going to become insufferable

I just want to buzz it all off. Just like I did when it was getting like this in March. But when I buzzed my head last year my mom had a conniption fit. Made all sorts of fucked up comments about how I looked like a Holocaust survivor (which would be a profoundly inappropriate and antisemitic comparison even if I wasn’t a Jewish conversion student). So… a month ago I acquiesced to her. I reasoned that I had a grad school open house and worried buzzing my hair wouldn’t make a good first impression because it’s not “professional”. So I bit the bullet made a haircutting appointment hoping I could get a nice clean masculine cut, maybe a fade or something, that still toed whatever line of respectability that would make my mom and my prospective research advisors happy.

Things went wrong as soon as I made my request to the stylist. She started making these distressed tutting noises until I backed down and just asked her to to trim it. And then the stylist tried to pressure me into waxing my eyebrows which… I have a deeply unpleasant personal history with being coerced into that. Barely stopped myself from running out of the establishment right there but… I really needed that haircut even if she wouldn’t take off as much as I wanted her to. So I just turned her down. But hey, at least my mom was happy. She’s been sending me compliments on how I look in photos for weeks now. She not only paid for my haircut but promised me that she’d pay for every haircut thereafter so long as I promised to never buzz off my hair again which… is honestly really generous. But she doesn’t understand. It’s not the just cost that makes haircuts deeply unpleasant experiences for me.

Haircuts are one of the least autism- friendly services I’ve encountered. The assault on the senses and feeling of people touching me and moving me and being out of control of my own body. The texture of the tarp thing and the way it makes me feel trapped. And then there’s the overwhelming hostility to gender nonconforming people that oozes out of those places. The coercion and the pressure and the constant reminders that society… kinda hates me for wanting to be comfortable in my own skin.

Simply put- I have rarely encountered an environment that that felt so consistently and targetedly hostile towards who I am.

So now I need a haircut. Again. Barely been a month since the last one but that’s what happens when the stylist refuses to take off more than a centimeter. I can’t concentrate on studying for finals. It prickles it prickles it prickles I need it GONE. But my mom is coming for my graduation in a few weeks and I know she’ll be livid. Going against my promise not to buzz my hair ever again AND ruining the photos in one fell swoop. I don’t know what to do.

fuck this shit

so i hung out with @grossestbabygirl yesterday and we got this huge edible!!!😱 she also helped bleach and dye my hair purple!!! hehe☺️💖

[spartanarcheress]

My mom was reminiscing how i used to always want her straight hair and she wanted my curly hair and i really want to tell her yeah thats cool but man it wouldve been neat if u put in the effort to learn the best was to take care of my hair rather than just being openly jealous of it and at the same time not discouraging just not wanting to deal with it… shed be like oh lets trade and i wanted to but she really woulda just had a rats nest like she always accused me of having. Like i had to wait til i was an adult to figure how tf to manage it with 0 help from her.

[carcarrot]

Mastering the Modern Gentleman’s Style: Trends in Men’s Haircuts and Beards

The modern gentleman is defined not only by his character but also by his appearance. Grooming plays a crucial role in crafting a polished image, and today’s men have embraced the art of personal style with enthusiasm. From sleek haircuts to impeccably groomed beards, here’s how to master the modern gentleman’s style by staying on top of current trends.

The Classic Meets Contemporary Haircuts

Modern men’s hairstyles often blend timeless classics with a contemporary twist, offering versatility and sophistication. Here are some trending haircuts:

The Fade Revolution The fade continues to dominate, offering a clean, sharp look that works with various lengths and styles. From high fades to low tapers, this style enhances facial structure and pairs perfectly with almost any outfit.

Textured Crop The textured crop is a go-to for those seeking a casual yet refined style. Characterized by messy, tousled locks on top and a clean-cut back and sides, this haircut is low-maintenance yet effortlessly stylish.

Slicked-Back Elegance A slicked-back style oozes sophistication. Whether it’s paired with an undercut or a fade, this look transitions seamlessly from boardroom meetings to evening outings.

Modern Pompadour The pompadour, a classic from the 1950s, has made a comeback with modern updates. Today’s pompadour features a more natural volume and often incorporates fades for a sleek, contemporary appearance.

The Buzz Cut Revival A minimalist choice, the buzz cut has become increasingly popular, especially when paired with a sharp lineup. It’s clean, simple, and undeniably masculine.

The Rise of Beard Culture

Beards are no longer just a symbol of rugged masculinity; they’re a key part of modern grooming. Whether you prefer a clean-shaven look or a full beard, here are some popular beard trends:

Stubble Perfection The 5 o’clock shadow or short stubble is a favorite among men who want a touch of ruggedness while maintaining a neat appearance. It’s versatile and suits most face shapes.

The Corporate Beard A well-groomed, medium-length beard strikes a balance between professionalism and style. Regular trimming and shaping are essential to achieve this look.

Full Beard Mastery For the bold, a full beard makes a powerful statement. However, it requires dedication—proper conditioning, regular trimming, and shaping ensure it remains polished rather than unruly.

The Goatee Renaissance The goatee has seen a resurgence, often paired with sharp fades for a modern vibe. It’s an excellent option for those who want facial hair without the commitment of a full beard.

Grooming Tips for the Modern Gentleman

Consistency is Key: Regular visits to a skilled barber ensure your haircut and beard remain on point. Invest in Quality Products: Use high-quality shampoos, conditioners, and beard oils tailored to your hair type. Pay Attention to Details: Clean edges, a well-maintained neckline, and a polished finish elevate your look. Adapt to Your Lifestyle: Choose styles that suit your daily routine while expressing your personality.

Final Thoughts

Mastering the modern gentleman’s style requires a blend of classic inspiration and contemporary trends. A great haircut and a well-groomed beard not only enhance your appearance but also boost confidence and leave a lasting impression.

Whether you prefer timeless sophistication or cutting-edge fashion, the key is to embrace a style that reflects who you are. With the right grooming habits and a trusted barber, you’ll embody the essence of the modern gentleman. https://hawkfade.com/services/
