    nearly certain to be considered a fashion mistake as you view old pics of yourself 15 years from now.

    however, you can be comforted by the fact that nothing you do to your hair will ever be as tragically awful as the mullet and mustache combo i had as an early teenager.

    so if you really want it, give it a shot. hair grows back.

    Bahaha, that is awesome! I have some horrible photos from my early teens that I'm just like, "Why the f*** did I do that?" But it was in at the time, so I no longer care.

    I like this if done well. There's a cooking show host named Nadia G that had a partial shave done in a way where you couldn't tell sometimes depending on how she styled her hair. It was cool, because she could show it off if she wanted, but it was also easy for her to hide it. I thought it looked great.

    Just Googled her, and yep. She just changes her part.

    Honestly, I don't like it. Depending on bone structure, style, personality, etc, some women can pull it off better than others, but I don't think it's a good look on anyone, period.

    That said, it's just hair, it grows back. More importantly, it's YOUR hair. So if you're really into it, I'd still say go for it. :)

    Looks like you just had a frontal lobe lobotomy.

    When I first read this, I was thinking the hitler, bullseye, or landing strip...or if you're going to shave it, you should go all the way....kinda disappointed *kicks rock* \m/

    I'm not interested in dating someone who has a hair style like a guy. Length is gorgeous on women. This is my preference, clearly. If you like it, do it.

    Yes.
    Or full shave - think Natalie Portman/Sinead O'Connor (when she was hot).

    Any girl who has the balls to shave her head immediately goes up in my eyes.

    woohoo love to hear that :)

    Yes and no, I liked it, well liked it now it's everywhere. I used to shave the underneath of my hair about a decade ago, with longer hair over, never did the side, wish I had done, wouldn't now as it's everywhere.

    I wouldn't do it personally but I think it can look good on other people.

    I think in order for this to look good you have to have a really thick, full, head of hair. If you hair is thin and lifeless this is going to look like an effed up mullet....just my .02

    Remember back in the day when we just shaved the underneath? That was easy peasy to grow out, you just have to be willing to cut the rest of your hair.
    I think the skrillex hair is overdone. It appealed to me for a few minutes, but now that everyone and their mother is off shaving a third of their head, I'm not interested.

    What about Persis Khambatta, in Star Trek: The Motion Picture?

    Hope, lol while I somewhat agree, that first picture is sooo not how I'd do it. Nor would I ever slick it back like that. My hair's naturally very curly so it'd end up looking more like the second photo.
