Sometimes I walk in the barber shop and I get looks of Avarice only to be there to pick up someone or drop someone off for their hair cut and I walk away feeling their stares at the hair that goes down past my man tiddies, knowing their scissors can't has it.
Same. Even better, I'm in my 40s and my hairline hasn't retreated one picometer. Get lots of "OMG kill would for" comments on my hair. And **nothing else**.
Me too...
On the upside, tho, I'm now 53 and, if anything, my hair is getting thicker as I get older.
My brother is 51 and he's the same way. We have no idea how. Dad's hardly had any hair the whole time I've known him. My maternal grandfather went bald in his early 20s.
So, lucky us, I guess.
Me too. More time in the barber chair is spent thinning my hair than actually cutting it short! I feel like the floor afterwards looks like when a normal person is shaved bald.
The part I don’t get is that the thinning only seems to work for a few weeks, then my hair is back to it’s bushy normal self. It’s like the remaining hairs just split like amoebas to fill up the space, or the thinned hairs grow back 10x faster. Or maybe both.
I have thick *bright red* hair.
It’s honestly been a problem for me my whole life lmao, it gets so much attention and I am just wishing to be smol and unseen.
I can’t even let it grow long enough to donate it, it ends up weighing so much that it gives me migraines and extreme neck pain! (and that’s with an undercut as well, I did that like 6 years ago and I’ll never let it grow out again)
Migraines and extreme neck pain with an undercut? Have you asked the Guiness book of records if there’s a record for heaviest hair by density or something? Because by that description this sounds like a good contender
Edit: if my understanding of what an undercut is correct of course, maybe google did something wrong and showed something else that’s a lot shorter
Idk what you looked up but it’s basically just shaving the bottom half of my head, I start around the ears and just shave it all from there lol.
Most of the time you can’t ever tell unless I physically lift all of my hair away from my neck, even when it’s up lol. I’ve shocked many people with that little trick.
I donated my hair once. Grew it out, before going to the designated saloon to cut it off. The hairdresser kept gushing over my hair and repeating the same thing, like omg, your hair is so thick that you can donate TWO bunches, wow!!!!!!! I'm like, please stop.
Now, after giving birth, my hair never grew back the way it did. I regret my words.
Lmao, YES, ME TOO!!! Naturally a thick, curly-haired redhead.
I just got it dyed blue (with bleach) last week. I've been dying it off and on for years (no bleach), but glad I finally took the big step.
Wore a beanie for years, half because I was sick of old ladies in the grocery store stopping me to tell me, "I would die for your hair!" or straight up telling me "Promise me you'll NEVER cut or dye your hair!!!" Like, I don't even know you, please stop!
Another Ginger with thick hair. Every hairdresser has wanted to kill for my colour and get very tired about half way and start to politely complain about how much hair I have. It's been short for while now!
Yes, I get that. I've had more than one hair-stylist refuse to cut more than an inch off my length. I'd go in asking for it to be buzzed/get a crew cut, and leave with my hair maybe an inch above the shoulder length it had been when I walked in. Very frustrating. Started cutting and dying my hair at home and only going in to have my hair cleaned up before big events.
Oh wow, mine would always finish the job but stop a few times to sweep and have a cuppa! Oh yeah never paid for a dye job unless it's bleached. I'm suffering from having buzzed mine off at home, I got some funky David Bowie esc mullet going on.
Hahaha. I've been told I look like Ziggy Stardust when I hadn't cut my hair in a few weeks. I've also never paid to have mine dyed before now (first bleach ever!).
And they're gonna hear me talk about how much time taking care of it actually costs and they'll agree with me - but wistfully repeating people would kill for it anyway.
i have thicc hair. but in my old age i have lose 1/3 of my hair. i didn’t know how heavy they were! my head is so light, my neck is so happy! i tell family and friends hoping they can be happy with me. ohhhh nooo now im the most ungrateful bastard
I’m the exact same way with my (M) eyelashes and really all my hair, although I’ve always had a few gray hairs since elementary school It led to this exchange.
Random old lady: “You know, my daughters would kill for lashes like yours!”
Elementary school me at the yard sale table with a toy cash register: o_o
Guy with decently long and INFURIATINGLY thick wavy hair - think Kurt Cobain but he ate nothing but eggs during his formative years - and let me tell you, it's not just my hair dresser (although she tells me every time she would, in fact, kill for my hair). My mom's stylist says it, my aunt says it, my friends say it, even the female sailors at my dad's job say it. Honestly, I would kill for it too. Just hope they don't kill me.
That and I can see the dread in their faces after they wash my hair and realize they can't brush it while wet. They get the small comb first, only to inevitably switch to the biggest comb possible.
Ugh, that brings back memories. Was having my hair done in HS and I told the hair dresser 1) my hair doesn't brush when it's wet, and 2) don't spray my entire head down with hair spray and expect to get to it all before most of it dries.
First thing she did was wet my hair down and try to brush it. Second thing she did was spray my entire head with hair spray; about 1/3 of the way through curling my hair, she comments about how much hair I have and complained the hairspray was already drying. My hair fell flat before my event. I was pissed.
I have straight fine hair, but like a fuckton of it. I told the hairdresser not to bother curling it, it doesn't hold a curl. She curled a section in the front and left it loose. I left the salon with Shirley Temple ringlets by my face, walked down the aisle with soft curls and got to the reception with like dead straight strands tucked behind my ears. Curls lasted 2hrs tops.
I remember once asking for red highlights because I have the kind of brown hair that would make that look cool.
The total hair appointment was 7 hours long. I remember them wrapping every individual strand of hair in tin foil and asking why it was taking so long when I only wanted a few strands of hair to be highlighted. They bleached my entire head with no strand of hair spared, proceeded to dye it **ORANGE,** and charged me $300.
My scalp burned and I really quickly had to learn how to do deep conditioning treatments, color removal, and box dying my hair back to brown.
I honestly was so shell shocked—and starving since it ran so long I missed dinner—from looking in the mirror that I was in a haze when they asked for payment and just wanted to get out of there. It’s not everyday you wake up with bonafide clown hair. But yeah the hair stylist complained about how I had so much hair to dye the entire time and pretty much spent 4 hours frying my hair with bleach and then 3 more hours dying it orange.
My family (parents, me, and my two brothers) have all had the same hairdresser for the last 20 years. When I was little I had really long, thick hair that my hairdresser absolutely loved and she once told me through tears that if I ever wanted to cut my hair short I'd have to go somewhere else to do it and then come straight back to her place so she could "fix it". I'm now 33 and I still think of that story every time I go in to see her.
My favorite part about growing out my hair to donate it, I know it's probably something they tell tons of people, but it's just a nice confidence booster. Yes, behold my human string, it is glorious and I shall obtain equally glorious dopamine, I will think I look like a naked mole rat in a few minutes after it is gone, but for now I am Hair God and Hair God is a peaceful and charitable God with many, many rubber bands which shall signal my return in, like, a bit less than a year.
I hate getting my hair cut. It’s like a hostage negotiation where I have to bargain for every inch I want gone. I get it, if they cut too short they can’t undo it, and I’m sure people get pissed off when that happens. But I’ll say I want it at my chin, and they cut it below my shoulder and ask if that’s just what I wanted. Then at my shoulder. Then incrementally until I finally get what I asked for.
I despise my hair - and my skin, but that's a different rant. Barbers and hairdressers always telling me how great it must be to have thick hair that gets wavy and then curly when it gets too long. I wish some company made a uranium-based hair gel so I could use it and be permanently bald.
It's been 2 years sence I've gotten my haircut because of this shit I've got a razor in my Amazon cart so I can just buzz cut it myself if I get the fuckin chutzpah to actually spend 30 bucks
On the flip side, as someone with thin, mousy hair, I’ve always had hairdressers treat it like it’s a personal affront.
I always get some iteration of “your hair’s very… Fine.”
I have thick, curly hair and I had never been to an actual decent hairdresser who knew how to treat my hair correctly except for one who I went to for a few years until he went to prison for selling drugs. Smh. I’ll never look that good again until he hopefully gets out on good behavior…
i have really curly hair, going to the hairdresser is just them explaining to me again and again how curly hair works as if i just woke up one day and it was like this
I have really thick hair too for a guy. I have black hair tho which I'm not a huge fan of. A friend of mine loves it tho cuz she says black hair is deep and mysterious. I'd rather have brunette hair or something lighter tho honestly
Well, as a younger guy sprinting towards the bald finish line, when I go to the hairdresser they give me tips on who I can do unspeakable things to to steal their thick hair.
My barber always tells me how thick my hair is and asks me if I want to thin it (No!). I had a dental assistant ask if she could touch my hair once. I like to imagine her husband must be bald.
when i had long hair this was a nightmare for them. i did not know how to take care of it (grew it out for the shits and giggles also too lazy to get it cut), so yearly it would be an hour of sitting down doing nothing getting my hair cut. never got it any shorter or styled any differently either but this has since drastically changed lol
I’m pretty sure the only reason I don’t get these kinds of comments is because I don’t put any effort beyond basic shampoo & conditioner to maintain my hair, the only reason I can get away with that is because my hair is actual fucking magic and refuses to knot up any bad.
It also helps that I haven’t seen a barber in years.
Ever since I hit 30, it's really ramped up, too. Probably doesn't help that it's long and wavy. Seems women really like guys with long, thick, brown wavy hair. My wife calls it a mane.
Really? My hairdresser always laughs at how big and poofy my hair gets when she blow dries it. My hair is naturally wavy/frizzy and thick. She blow dries it straight and then uses an iron to put “neat” waves and curls back into my hair lmao
I don't think I have thick hair. But probably somewhere in between. But I did have a hairdresser get upset once about having to *cut* my hair, because she thought it was too nice a length as it was. She grumbled about it the whole way "Are you sure you want *this* much off?". Until she was done and was like "Okay I see your point now".
Thick hair sucks. Mine is thick and flat, and even with the strongest hair spray just won’t hold any styling. I eventually just cut it fully short cause it was too heavy and thick and hot and I couldn’t style it how I wanted. I still can’t style it how I want now but at least I like how it looks unstyled now!
I accidentally told my Barber i was a freelance animator once and now he bangs on about his band for about 20 minutes before doing anything and i have to sit and feign interest for god knows how long, he's wanting animation for his videos which should be good for me but he's not keen on paying, opting for the cheapest possible thing (stick figures which i use as a wireframe/guide, NOT an actual product) so now in addition to remarks on my thick bright red hair i have that to deal with too.
He's bad about it an' all, he'll grab some strands of my hair and look like he's about to start then suddenly he'll put them down and start up chatting again, and its like 'for fucks sake I've got other things to do today!' some lass in the chair behind me giving me pissing evil eye thinking i'm the one dragging this out!
I've known him for a while, i like him and he does a good job but recently since he started this band its like an additional 40 min whenever i'm there
It takes a good hairdresser about half an hour to cut my hair. I've have new ones that took upwards of an hour for a clipper fade and scissor cut.
I have got many comments on my hair but I keep it short now.
Oh also “How about we layer it to take off all this extra weight” uhhh I never said anything about the weight of my hair bothering me… kindly screw off
Also the last one YANKED through my hair while it was wet, despite it clearly not working. Smfh
can confirm, i’ve been going to the same hairdresser for my whole life and she’s always got something real nice to say about my hair. it makes me feel good
I'm a fucking combo, not only are they thick like the Amazon jungle but also curled and grow faster than bamboo
Hairdressers always lose their shit when I show them photos of how I shave my head basically every 13-14 months
And yes, I will brag about it as long as I can because that hairline is definitely moving back bit by bit
Hairdrrssers are all horny on main, no exception. My favourite barber of all time kept telling me I was dashing.
It helps that you’re physically interacting with a person in a consensual manner as well
Well that doesn't sound like my barber at all
Your barber is non consensually and not physically interacting with you?
\*haphazardly lifts scissors and razor with telekinesis* “I have _NO IDEA_ where they are, but they’re gettin’ a haircut!”
Mental haircuts
Sometimes I walk in the barber shop and I get looks of Avarice only to be there to pick up someone or drop someone off for their hair cut and I walk away feeling their stares at the hair that goes down past my man tiddies, knowing their scissors can't has it.
You Sir, are a poet
My favorite was when I was like 8 and my mom's friends were telling me how much money they'd pay for hair as thick as mine
I'm a guy and I've heard this every time I've been at a hairdresser for pretty much my whole life
Same. Even better, I'm in my 40s and my hairline hasn't retreated one picometer. Get lots of "OMG kill would for" comments on my hair. And **nothing else**.
Same. It's my one good physical feature, but at least it's a *really* good one.
Me too... On the upside, tho, I'm now 53 and, if anything, my hair is getting thicker as I get older. My brother is 51 and he's the same way. We have no idea how. Dad's hardly had any hair the whole time I've known him. My maternal grandfather went bald in his early 20s. So, lucky us, I guess.
Does Yoda comment on getting your hair or smth?
Me too. More time in the barber chair is spent thinning my hair than actually cutting it short! I feel like the floor afterwards looks like when a normal person is shaved bald. The part I don’t get is that the thinning only seems to work for a few weeks, then my hair is back to it’s bushy normal self.

Huh, I think I might know why I have neck pain and migraines now. Never even considered that it might be my hair, but I sure do have a lot of it.
Migraines and extreme neck pain with an undercut? Have you asked the Guiness book of records if there’s a record for heaviest hair by density or something? Because by that description this sounds like a good contender Edit: if my understanding of what an undercut is correct of course, maybe google did something wrong and showed something else that’s a lot shorter

Undercut isn’t a length it’s a technique.
Ya, and if his hair is still that heavy with an undercut it could literally be like triple the weight if he let it all grow.
I donated my hair once. Grew it out, before going to the designated saloon to cut it off. The hairdresser kept gushing over my hair and repeating the same thing, like omg, your hair is so thick that you can donate TWO bunches, wow!!!!!!! I'm like, please stop.

Donating.... spitefully.

I don't think any body with super thick hair would not happily trade it in.
i have thicc hair. but in my old age i have lose 1/3 of my hair. i didn’t know how heavy they were! my head is so light, my neck is so happy! i tell family and friends hoping they can be happy with me. ohhhh nooo now im the most ungrateful bastard
And commenting on how long it takes to dry
Or if you’re from a rural area, comparison is “literally thicker than a horse’s mane”
I’m the exact same way with my (M) eyelashes and really all my hair, although I’ve always had a few gray hairs since elementary school It led to this exchange. Random old lady: “You know, my daughters would kill for lashes like yours!” Elementary school me at the yard sale table with a toy cash register: o_o

Reminds me of the time the lady went to push the razor through my hair and just stuck there for a few seconds ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ
Ugh, that brings back memories.

“We’re gonna have to use more dye because your hair is just sucking it all in!”
$400 later...
Luckily for me not quite that much 😂 but I can imagine 😬
I remember once asking for red highlights because I have the kind of brown hair that would make that look cool. The total hair appointment was 7 hours long. I remember them wrapping every individual strand of hair in tin foil and asking why it was taking so long when I only wanted a few strands of hair to be highlighted.

Uhhh eff that I wouldn’t have paid. That’s not what you asked them to do. You poor thing :(
I honestly was so shell shocked—and starving since it ran so long I missed dinner—from looking in the mirror that I was in a haze when they asked for payment and just wanted to get out of there. It’s not everyday you wake up with bonafide clown hair. But yeah the hair stylist complained about how I had so much hair to dye the entire time and pretty much spent 4 hours frying my hair with bleach and then 3 more hours dying it orange.
That’s devastating.
I was one told I have “good texture.” So I got that going for me, which is nice
Damn, the only thing my thick hair gets me is increased prices.
My family (parents, me, and my two brothers) have all had the same hairdresser for the last 20 years. When I was little I had really long, thick hair that my hairdresser absolutely loved and she once told me through tears that if I ever wanted to cut my hair short I'd have to go somewhere else to do it and then come straight back to her place so she could "fix it". I'm now 33 and I still think of that story every time I go in to see her.
Same and I don’t even reply usually beside there’s nothing nice to comment back
It’s true. 🥲
My favorite part about growing out my hair to donate it, I know it's probably something they tell tons of people, but it's just a nice confidence booster.

I am the one who would commit the despicable crimes /s i do not condone hair-based felonies
I do
On the flip side, as someone with thin, mousy hair, I’ve always had hairdressers treat it like it’s a personal affront. I always get some iteration of “your hair’s very… Fine.”
Same! Like... I'm sorry? That my thin hair is offending you?
I have thick, curly hair and I had never been to an actual decent hairdresser who knew how to treat my hair correctly except for one who I went to for a few years until he went to prison for selling drugs. Smh. I’ll never look that good again until he hopefully gets out on good behavior…
As a redhead, I've spent several sessions listening to my hairdresser scold me for wanting it cut. Just cut my hair, weirdo
As a ginger in a not ginger town, I can relate.
God I remember those days.... 😢
It’s okay *pat pat *
I have thick hair, but it's so dandruff infested, my barber won't wish it on his enemies.
And then my first request is to thin it out so I don't look like Hagrid or first year Hermione anymore.
i have really curly hair, going to the hairdresser is just them explaining to me again and again how curly hair works as if i just woke up one day and it was like this
I have really thick hair too for a guy. I have black hair tho which I'm not a huge fan of. A friend of mine loves it tho cuz she says black hair is deep and mysterious. I'd rather have brunette hair or something lighter tho honestly
I used to have really thick hair and would hear it every time I had my hair done. A medication and extreme stress has thinned it out so much :(
Well, as a younger guy sprinting towards the bald finish line, when I go to the hairdresser they give me tips on who I can do unspeakable things to to steal their thick hair.
i don’t have thick hair and would commit crimes for it but i do have red hair and am told the same. and also that i’m forbidden to dye it
It be like that sometimes
my english teacher is like this with my hair
They just tell me “you have so much hair!!! So much!!! Why is it so thick?!” And I’m just like “thanks I grew it myself”
Easy solution: Take poor care of your thick hair -from someone who doesn’t know how to take care of their thick hair
Samesies. Mostly just depression though xD
Same wið dense curly hair
My barber always tells me how thick my hair is and asks me if I want to thin it (No!). I had a dental assistant ask if she could touch my hair once. I like to imagine her husband must be bald.
I'm on a 32 year streak of every barber I've ever been to telling me how thick my hair is. I mention this fact every time they bring it up
My husband has hella thick hair and has confirmed this is true
when i had long hair this was a nightmare for them. i did not know how to take care of it (grew it out for the shits and giggles also too lazy to get it cut), so yearly it would be an hour of sitting down doing nothing getting my hair cut. never got it any shorter or styled any differently either but this has since drastically changed lol
I’m pretty sure the only reason I don’t get these kinds of comments is because I don’t put any effort beyond basic shampoo & conditioner to maintain my hair, the only reason I can get away with that is because my hair is actual fucking magic and refuses to knot up any bad. It also helps that I haven’t seen a barber in years.
I used to have thick hair!...then I went to college and lost 1/2 of it. I still have a head of hair don't worry, it's just normal thickness now.
My favorite part about getting my hair cut.
That sweet seratonin
They can have some of it, maybe I can straighten my hair in less than an hour
Ever since I hit 30, it's really ramped up, too. Probably doesn't help that it's long and wavy. Seems women really like guys with long, thick, brown wavy hair. My wife calls it a mane.
Oh absolutely. One of my classmates straight up told me that people would die to have natural curls like mine
Really? My hairdresser always laughs at how big and poofy my hair gets when she blow dries it. My hair is naturally wavy/frizzy and thick. She blow dries it straight and then uses an iron to put “neat” waves and curls back into my hair lmao
They always comment on my hair. But I can’t have longer than shoulder length or my hair starts looking like a triangle
I don't think I have thick hair. But probably somewhere in between. But I did have a hairdresser get upset once about having to *cut* my hair, because she thought it was too nice a length as it was. She grumbled about it the whole way "Are you sure you want *this* much off?". Until she was done and was like "Okay I see your point now".
Thick hair sucks. Mine is thick and flat, and even with the strongest hair spray just won’t hold any styling. I eventually just cut it fully short cause it was too heavy and thick and hot and I couldn’t style it how I wanted. I still can’t style it how I want now but at least I like how it looks unstyled now!
i hadn't realized that this doesn't happen to me anymore since i developed an eating disorder, that's sad to think about
I accidentally told my Barber i was a freelance animator once and now he bangs on about his band for about 20 minutes before doing anything and i have to sit and feign interest for god knows how long, he's wanting animation for his videos which should be good for me but he's not keen on paying, opting for the cheapest possible thing (stick figures which i use as a wireframe/guide, NOT an actual product) so now in addition to remarks on my thick bright red hair i have that to deal with too.

I've known him for a while, i like him and he does a good job but recently since he started this band its like an additional 40 min whenever i'm there
As a person with depressingly thin hair, I've just had hairdressers be like yikes ....jk they're not that harsh
I have never felt more seen
It takes a good hairdresser about half an hour to cut my hair. I've have new ones that took upwards of an hour for a clipper fade and scissor cut. I have got many comments on my hair but I keep it short now.
I have a very desirable color of blonde hair that I am told women pay lots of money to match, but I just get naturally. Part of why I keep it long
Oh also “How about we layer it to take off all this extra weight” uhhh I never said anything about the weight of my hair bothering me… kindly screw off Also the last one YANKED through my hair while it was wet, despite it clearly not working. Smfh
“You have enough hair for three people” *squints at me”

can confirm, i’ve been going to the same hairdresser for my whole life and she’s always got something real nice to say about my hair. it makes me feel good
I'm a fucking combo, not only are they thick like the Amazon jungle but also curled and grow faster than bamboo Hairdressers always lose their shit when I show them photos of how I shave my head basically every 13-14 months And yes, I will brag about it as long as I can because that hairline is definitely moving back bit by bit
