Long hair and the care of - in general and out...

[Chance]

Now I'm confused. If I wear my hair slightly longer than the conventional, does that mean that I'm secretly a little bit "theatrical" (and not in the manly Ross Kemp way) ? How do I tell my wife ?
And what about my beard ? Is it hiding a weak chin ? Is there any hope for my marriage ?

Or have I missed the point, and the true lesson is that I need to watch more Star Trek ? Is it still on terrestrial television ?

Are you offering a 'Klingon re-enactment service' to schools now as well Wayland? How's about a piccy of your damascus Bat'leth?

Nah... There's enough people with receding hair and comb overs out there for that role.

For the summer I'm growing the beard out a bit for the Blackbeard look.

I think I last had a proper haircut in 1994 but mine gets shoulder length then stops. I have to wash now and then or it goes into a dread, not dreads just one big matted nasty. I neither know nor care what this says about my masculinity. I've tried the no washing thing but because of my job it gets too grimy to ignore.

That sounds painfully familiar. Used to tie mine back a lot and the tail got loose on a bike trip once. After a couple of days it was a big untangleable mess that I ended up hacking off in one lump.

HI Matt

wear a buff or silk tube over your head when sleeping a little bit of talc in the morning helps get rid of any grease but TBH the only thing long term is washing it sorry
