Hair

It got in the way at work, so he cut it.

My husband has long hair, and since he's a mechanic, he always ties it in a pony-tail for safety. However, he was using a creeper once, and managed to roll over his own hair with one of the wheels! Didn't convince him to cut it though.

When my uncle was in his early twenties he decided to grow his hair long because one of his sisters complained that it was so difficult to look after. He had no problems with general maintenance but, after a close call with a piece of farm equipment, he decided it was time to cut it short again . . .

My husband works at a grocery store, and for years they had a policy that your hair had to be shorter than your collar. When they changed the rule, he grew it very long, but after about 10 years of long, he couldn't take it anymore, with it in his face, and getting dusty and inky from the boxes in the storeroom. He decided to cut it, and is happier now with it short. Plus, his hair is mostly gray now, and he started to think it looked silly too long.

My hair started to make dreads of itself so I have straightened it for a while and it is a great feeling making a change, no matter what it is, I find a change to be good. I can't imagine how he felt when he went from extra long to short must've been hard

My boy got long hair, and I'm the one who's bothered the most... he doesn't take care of it, doesn't even use conditioner (!) some times while showering (which actually is the main reason I use to join him. Really) and he doesn't comb it as much as he needs to and there's hair everywhere... in the bed, on all clothes, even mine, and pretty much everywhere...

But, I love the look of it, so I just convince him to brush it (twice a day, at least, with his hair) or do it myself when he's playing. And I'd him to cut it more, because it's getting to bad, but if he just use the conditioner (for hair, it's what it says on the bottle) everytime he showers I'm fine with it... I just don't like that he leaves so much hair everywhere...


I'm still happy with short hair :blush: Much easier and I can't get long hair anyway.

One of the common problems of having lots of hair seems to be shedding. My husband swears that if he didn't know better he'd think there was a golden retreiver in the house . . .
