    I'm on the fence about the partial shave. Personally, I like my look best :bigsmile:

    I saw this on a woman yesterday....IMO, Hell no. If you are going to shave it, shave it all.

    been there, done that, and have the t-shirt. It takes foreever to grow out and with your hair being more curly it might get wide before it gets long!

    I personally do not think its attractive at all. However, its your hair. Do what YOU like :)

    I just shave around the edges. I'm letting the top grow.

    You could have you side partially braided...so have a similar look, without having to shave.
    It's temp, looks nice and people will think your smart.

    I love the juxtaposition of looking like a Victoria's Secret angel and a tough badass all at once.

    That's the key with this look though...
    You would have to make sure to balance it out by keeping the long side voluminous, shiny, etc.

    I say, do itttttt.

    on girls, I absolutely hate it and have yet to see a girl who can "pull it off" but its your body, you do as it pleases you.

    On guys, its a bit too "punk @$$" look for me but once again, not my call

    I love it too. And my fiancé has awesome hair products, so I'll definitely have to use his.

    I think it makes guys look like *kitten*, but I've seen girls pull it off sexily... really depends on the girl and how it's done. If you don't like it, just prepare for your hair to be really short for a while (which can also be very sexy) :)

    Good luck, whatever you do.

    I like short hair. I love long hair. It doesn't appeal to me too much when they're on the same head. I suppose the fact that the El Camino was popular is proof that things appeal to some and not to others.

    I don't care much for ice cream on my mashed potatoes, either. :noway: :smile:

    I used to do the partial shave thing when I was a teenager.... I finally grew it back out when I was about 20 because it looked trashy.

    No, no! I AM a fan of the El Camino. Car, truck ... I couldn't make up my mind. It's other things that I'm particular about. Got a '70 El Camino w/ factory 4-speed (non SS). It's just that when it comes to hair, I like it a little better when it's one way or the other ... just not both. I did, however, experience a grilled cheese sandwich the other day that had bacon and green apples on it ... yummy stuff. I'll try to keep an open mind. :happy:

    Personally I would just pull my hair to the side and slick it back to get the affect instead of shaving it but to each to their own. :)

    I LOVE the first one! The second one is a bit much, but if you're going for the first, I say yes!

    It looks cute but it will look bad growing out. Plus you can achieve the same effect without shaving.

    My theory on the growing out process though, is you can just change your part to the other side and have your "long" hair cover the growing part.

    ^^ This for sure

    I think it's cute (the first one)

    Was anyone else disappointed when they opened this thread?

    And to the question...there is a reason this look died the first time. People finally awoke one day, ripped off their Chess King threads, and said "God Lord, what has become of us?"

    <<< My hair currently... I dye the two parts different colours to get more of a dynamic between the shaved side and the rest of my hair.

    I'm dying it all one natural looking colour soon as I'm going to start growing it out.


    I have really thick hair too so I have the added benefit of parting it on the other side to cover up if I need to look a bit more mature. No one can tell I have a shaved head then! ;)
