I love a good hair trend. The crazier the better! However – I’m a total coward and I’d rather look at the wild looks than sport it on myself.
Nevertheless, as much as I love crazy do’s, (remember we spoke previously about two toned hair color that I loved?) I did spot a new trend that I’m a little shocked at – shaving one side of your head. Kudos to the ladies above who dare to try out this wild style, but talk about commitment! I can only imagine that a truckload of extensions for a few years would do if these girls decide to grow their hair out.
What do you think about shaving one side of your head – cool or crazy? Like I said; as much as I love crazy styles, this may just be too crazy for my taste – only because I pity the grow-out time.

i love this look, its gives a much edgier look to a girly face. i shaved half my head once, and loved it, but i kept it shaved for a long time which was a lot of maintenance. and now im growing it out and i’m so impatient, so i kinda regret it, haha.
Aw Dip I want pics!!!!
It must’ve looked so good on you, you daredevil. Pity your grow-out time though 
haha okay i’ll post some pics
Three words: Do Not Want.
Not cute! It seems more like a cry for attention than an actual style. Definitely a don’t.
thats funny you say that . what do you think style is??
I don’t like it, it looks a bit mannish I think ^-^
CRAZY! I think it’s edgy, and if you have the attitude to match, then work it, girl! However, I would never ever even consider it. I shudder to think about how unfierce growing that cut out would be. Eesh.
Definitely punk, and definitely daring – not something I’m bold enough to try!
These girls look fierce, but they’ll be stuck with that look for a while, it must take forever to grow back!
Welcome to the site, Michaela! I don’t think I’ve seen you before. Your pic is so cute, if that’s you!
Haha, it seems you girls share my sentiments on the growing out phase – 4 years at least, no? Painful! I do agree if you have the attitude to pull it off, it’ll work – it’s a very edgy punky hairstyle, but not for me
Not cool for me
It’s really not my style….people would look strange at me on the street 
love it!!! did it before and the hair rocked!!
growing out isnt much of a pain. once it grows till about 1″, the hair usually stays flat (if u have straight or wavy hair) and still looks good and not too out of place when u tie a pony.
and ever if u wanna cover up just let the hair down and nobody will know. shh!
I have had this style for 4 weeks now and guess what I love it an people love it an long as it love it I’m good and happy with GIRL I ROCK….
I have my hair shaved on one side. I adore it . TBH somedays i wish i had my long hair back but then i just adore my hair ahah . mine grows back kinda quick. i’ve had it done for like a goos 4 months now and i keeo shaving itt. no more long hairr!
dont know what style to go niext though! 
haha if i can go any style lmao
Girl you to ! I have been rocking this style now for about 4 weeks as well an I love it …It rocks! Long as you are happy with it that’s what matter right? Because Im surely happy with the new look it makes me feel sexy and she got that swag. Girls who shave one side of their hair no they are pretty. I no I can wear it well….. lol I have stars on my shave side fly………
Hey there, firstly, I would like to note that I think it’s a wonderful site you got here. And to the point, I haven’t understood the way to include your website rss in my rss reader, where is the link to your feed? Many thanks
I’m actually thinking of taking the electric razor to my head right now. I’ve been wanting to do this for ages and it must finally be time!
i have had it done and iam glad that i did it looks amazing xx
I love this look very much! Like you do, I do not dare to go for it, but sometimes I feel like want too, but then I had a long thought and makes me to not proceed with it.
Hi all, I had my hair shaved short on one side about four weeks ago and can say without doubt that it’s the best hairstyle I’ve ever had! It’s completely different from anything I’ve had done before, but it looks so trendy and is really easy to style. I’ve been approached by so many strangers in the street who tell me they love it too!!! I’m going to the hairdresser tomorrow to get it cut in again, and I think I’m going to go even shorter than I did the first time!
I have recently had my hair shaved on one side & it is immense
. I don’t appreciate that Tammy z that it is a cry for attention ?? Why would you think that. Its stylish, easy 2 manage and always looks well no matter what. Mayb u r just a bit boring and havent got it in you to go a bit crazy with ur hair. Its only hair it grows back … Live a little !!! Cant wait until next time to get it a little shorter. Hats off to the girls who have got it done .. We know style haha
Wow. I am getting it done tomorrow and after reading the negative comments I was scared that people would think it is a cry for attention even though it’s not, just a latest style craze. So after reading the comment from Dd and all the others I am definitely encouraged but still scared!!!!!!!! Eeeeeeep. I will love it but I think there will be people out there that don’t, but if it looks good then I am sure they will just be jealous they dont have the guts to do it :p
ahhh. godd, im getting this done tomorroww. i had my hair cut into a short pixie crop and it’s finally up to my shoulders so it’s definitley time to do it, im only shaving it a little past my ear though. wish me luck:D!
Ooh, GOOD LUCK! Let us all know how it turns out!
haddd it done:D! love itttttttttttt<3
Ddid this yesterday, still kinda scared since I will be the only one in my school sporing half one inch buzzed and half naturally curly bouncy hair.. What a mix
the only issue I have with it is I have sortof a boyish look from a certain angle :p oh wells, it looks awesome.
I know you postedthis a long ass time ago! but I’ve been wanting to do this for YEARS. Honestly! I have naturally curly hair (not wave, i mean CURl) but i rock it
and i want to do this cut so bad but i’m worried about the grow out stage, what does your hair look like as it is growing back?? is it frizzy or easily hideable?
I did this about 2 weeks ago. Just before school started. I was so scared too but im so so glad i did. I love it, &when i did mine, I shaved 2 lines into it (think of the 80′s).
(:
It’s my senior year in school and I think its a great way to go out with a bang.
I love it!
Im just waiting to see who else in my school will get the guts to do it too :]
I completely adore this trend. It’s so edgy-cool. I thoroughly plan on doing it to myself, I just have to grow a pair of balls first.
Omg same! I really want to do this style, but I’m scared of it not working out for me… Plus, since it stands for edginess and what not, if I’m concerned of what other people think of me then that must mean I shouldn’t be able to do it haha…
I LOVE this style i got my right side buzzed off just over a month ago, people stopped me at the bus stop and said it looked ‘gorgeous and it suited me well’ made my day
I think it is a brave style to go for, as other have said do what YOU want to do, not what others say or think, you only live once & its only hair it will grow back that is if you want it to
Big up to all the ladies with a side shave style xxx
I love this style, but i don’t know if i shud do it! i really wanna, but i have curly hair and idk if it will look okay. any suggestions? =D
I adore the half shaved look, iv been thinking about doin it for soooooo long ima hair dresser and iv never had the guts to do it. Butttt my birthdays this Friday and u kno what fukkkk it I need n want sumthing new different, I just made an appointment for thursday night ima go do it , but it’ll be less then what cassie has in that top picture and with a design. My home girl has it done n when she flips her hair to the shaved side it covers it up. Ahhhh I’m so excited!
Hi, I loveeeee the look.! I actually have an appointment tomorrow, and I wanted to know which side was best. I was thinking since I’am a “righty” that I should get it on my right side… idk?? Please answeerrr .. !! Thanks(:
Khae
Ive got it on my right side, it feels fine, im a righty too.
good luck with your appointment, have fun and video it thats what i forgot to do for mine.
Giselle C ive got curly hair too, it looks good coz we have so much volume it looks cool
I think this look is right on with the current trends i.e. androgeny. It has the femininity of long hair but also the masculinity with the shaved side. I think Jethro caves shaved side is one of the best I’ve seen as he actually continues the shave on a sharp angle into the side of his fringe which gives a really edgy effect. I love this look on girls too, my friend had it a while ago and for those worried that you are stuck with the style, thats not true because you can just do a centre part or allow the hair to fall over and cover the shaved side. If you have reasonable thickness in your remaining hair it will look as if you never shaved it which is the best part. Kudos to those brave enough to attempt this sleek look.
hey guys ^^
my hair is long just above my waist I havent noticed hoe it got long coz i havenrt had much time to pay attention to it, but now on the 1st of jan I think its time for change Ima shave about 4cm above my ear not the whole side and maybe get a pattern into it as soon as I scrap some money YAAAY
p.s i am doubting my decision, butI think im just gona get it done ^^
I have a half shaved head, and I love it. I also have two toned hair, I’m blonde with brown underneath. People say that my look is “punk” although I do not catorgorize myself, I think it depends on if you have the guts to do it, but I love it alot although growing it out will be very unsetteling. I think you should do It if you want because I absolutley adore it. It’s a bit scary to do at first I almost cried because it’s suc a drastic look. And you don’t have to literally shave half, but I did. Some peiple just do a little patch in the front. I get lots of good compliments on it. My boyfriend shaved both sides, and when we walk together we probably look a bit like two looneys.
I have naturally black hair, but have died it orange so it gradually fades into bright orange at the tips. My shaved part is black, and currently with a leopard print on it. Oh so pleased, and looks lovely, if I must say so myself ^_^
If you’re feeling for a change, and consider yourself brave enough.. Then why not?!
You only live once after all XD
Love, Laugh & Chocolate<3
I know this an old post but I had to include my 2 cents anyway…. I just recently shaved off one side (and the back of my head) and I love it, I just gotta figure out different styles to do other than curly or straight. I also feel like it brings out a lot of my features!!!
Hmmm… Ive been thinkin of getting it. But ive been really afraid deciding cuz i wasnt sure i might like it wen i actually get it. But all these posts are encouraging
i guess im going to go for it xD
But i still have doubts. Ive seen different types of these.. There is one that is a square by the ear, other ones are longer along the ear or there is the really big one like the whole half of the head.
I definately dont want the whole half cuz im scared for the big change. I want a little one, like long along the ear. Does anybody have a picture? i want to see please.
N also what do i tell the haircutter person, will she/he know what im talkin about?
Hey, I just wanted to say that I read this thing before I got my side shave last week. It really helped me decide to go for it. I went to a tattoo parlor that also has a hair stylist, they refused! Two guys, because my hair was “too nice” and I would “regret it”. So that was pretty discouraging, The tattoo guy called down the street to a hair salon and sent me there. It was all women except for the guy who did my shave. EVERYONE in the salon were gasping and freaking out. (I have longgggg barbie blonde, naturally straight hair) WHen he made the first cut I started crying and screaming, while my friend laughed and took pictures. Then as he finished the shaving part I fell it love. SO BADASS. All my guy friends who tried to talk me out of it now think it is super sexy. No one expected me to shave my head, and im so glad i went through with it. Im surprised how many guys are into it hahaha. Ive had lots of compliments and props to my bravery.
its just hair, and you only live once!
(wish i knew how to post a picture for you )
xox
Im doing it tonyt LOL!!!
i’m thinking about shaving half my head after i graduate high school… my hair is semi-thick and wavy/curly, dirty blond. but my part is reaaaally to the side. should i shave half my head UNDER the main part of my hair? or on the side with the less hair?? i really want to shave the lesser half cause my face looks better on that side (haha) but idk if this is a good idea cause i wouldn’t be able to hide it as much as compared to the other side. advice?!
I shaved both sides kept growing back quick was shaving it every 2 weeks everyone liked it I normally wear it over the right side rhianna style been a year still keep shaving cos it looked so cool- want to grow it out now – not that bad cos the hair in the top covers it so it looks like a posh bob can’t see the undercut so eventually one side will b like Frankie Saturdays – so always will be a cool style – cut it it’s hair it grows – I just can’t wait for it to grow cos my hair is curly so top straight and when sides start growing it waves… But it’s a style u can rock with anything -
I still love this style but now im growing it back, my hair is curly so im lucky i can cover the growth up, its gonna take about 4 years to fully grow back which is a bit of a bummer, but i just gotta wait it out.
Have it, and love it! Best thing I’ve ever done. <3
I went for a different approach, I shaved the right side, not as large a portion, and incur it short in the back and on he left to skip up and left the front part long over my right eye. And I absolutely LOVE it! Im 17, I figure I should do it while instill have the guts.
don’t do this if you aren’t a badass. for every guy i meet who thinks I’ve got to be gay or an asshole for this hairstyle, there are a handful more who think it’s awesome. color the shaved side to make it pop! I dyed mine turquoise for a long ass time. My hair was only to my ears so there was minimal mental scarring. fuck long blonde hair that shit’s boring.
I have had half of my head shaved and I would not recommend it. Before I had very long hair in a middle parting and absoulutley loved it. I shaved half my hair and cut it shorter because I got bored. And now I have to have my hair shaved all the time like once a week, and I cant just tie it up because it looks stupid. I really want to grow it out but am training to be a hairdresser and will not find it ideal to be working in a salon and having hair that looks a mess. Bad idea dont do it!
I have mine shaved and designed on one side and people go absolutely nuts when they see it. I get constant compliments everywhere that I go! By far the best style I’ve ever had.
Where do you get your design?! I have been trying to find out where to get mine done.
I think it looks absolutely disgusting! I’m a 14 year old boy in high school and so many girls at my school have started doing this. They look so horrible!
Some girls that I used to think were so beautiful have done this and now they just look unbelievably ugly! I love the look of a girl with long, flowing, natural coloured hair. If i put my fingers over the shaved side of the darker skinned woman’s head in the picture at the top of this page she looks so pretty. Then I remove my fingers and she looks gross!
So many of my friends agree with me too. They all say that they either look horrible and they look like ugly lesbians.
Honestly ,
people are stupid and think its ugly because they dont have the balls to think outside of the ordinary
most of the pople love it (:
i know i look good .
Bwuahaha
they just need to get a life and get outta mine i lovee it !
So if you want it go ahead
YOU NEED CONFIDENCE AS WELL AS SWAG TO PULL THAT STYLE OFF. IF YOU DONT HAVE NEITHER OF THOSE THEN IT WON’T WORK FOR YOU. THE ONES WHO THINKS IT’S DISGUSTING OR UGLY DON’T HAVE THE CONFIDENCE TO PULL IT OFF AND LOOK GOOD AT IT. IN OTHER WORDS, CAN YOU SPELL…………………………HATER!!! TOO MANY PEOPLE TELL ME THAT THEY’RE DIGGING MY STYLE…YOUNG AND OLD, SO IT’S GOTTA BE THE BOMB! ONCE AGAIN… CONFIDENCE AND SWAGGER.
i have short hair probably upto like the top of my shoulders ,my hair takes FOREVER to grow and its super curly ,but im DYING to do this cute however im super nervous and so many people are telling me to just let it grow long but i simply adore this(and the women who did this:thumbs up!)
so im deciding if i should or not… i dont want no negative feedbacks and regret it … if i do this im going saturday so HELP
I love this trend. I Just did my hair right now, I took it a step further and shaved the other side too. So I am rocking a true mohawk, not a faux, but the real thing! I have the face and the bone structure to pull it off, I am not afraid of what other people think. I love it!! When I am ready to grow it out, I will transition into a pixie hair cut.
i wudd so do it. dhiz hairstyle is for ppl wif major attitude and kan take on dha world. as yuu kan c wif dha women whu tried it. but lyk i wudd do dhiz kinda haircut and it aint dhat am skared its dhat am still under legal age so mha ma wont let me do it..
ive had my hair shaved and i LOVE it.
its so different and im getting loads of compliments to be honest. People are telling me to shave most my hair like picture1 but thats to extreme. im happy with my little bit and it following down around the back of my ear to my neck. its just so unique and vintage:’]
It’s part cool alright, but mostly crazy. I mean as long as you’re into it, but it can take away a pretty girl look, I don’t mean girly, but I think it makes a girl look really mean and somewhat manly. And same with everybody else, the growing out part would most probably be dreadful of a wait, because I’m sure those who shaved it, regretted it, especially if they’ve got long, real hair to begin with.
shuld i get this done or not?? …..help ??
Only do it if you are sure but let me tell you. Getting the buzzer on your head for the first time is an adrenaline rush!
I just got mine half shaved yesterday. OMG I was crying because I had been growing out my hair for years, so my hair is pretty long. Now I’m just going to let it grow out but its going to look weird considering that half it going to be long and the other is going to be short. My brother cut my hair and I loved it, but every now and then I will look at it and cry. I’m trying to pull this look off, since my hair is kinda thin, but the other good thing about it is that hopefully that side will grow thicker. I’m never cutting my hair again o_o
I love this new trend, I prefer it on colored girls, but I am going to do it just cuz I can
I had shaved the left side of my head in January, and adore it. It’s a very versatile look – when you want to look edgy you part it so you can see the whole side, or if you want to be Gorky but still punk rock you can curl it and part it toward the middle. It looks neat when put up (side ponytails!) and it is easy to hide if you need to be fancy or have a family function or whatnot… just part the other way! If you are afraid to shave too close, just have your hairstylist start out with it short, then keep taking some off. You can always shave it down more later on your own. I am a natural ashy blond but dye my hair a bright red, and the shaved side looked awesome both natural and dyed. I am now in the process of growing the shaved side out, and it isn’t awkward, surprisingly… I just wet it and slick it down with gel or hairspray. Once the shaved side grows out considerably more, I plan on just having it blended with my other hair into an asymmetrical cut. My advice to anyone who is thinking of doing it – do it! You only live once!
I have been considering doing this for some time! I just need to be swayed one way or the other!
Lesbian-looking
attention-seeking hair style for the insecure.
@ Jess
You know the truth, your friend told you and you told yourself. Don’t try to justify it by saying all that other bullsh!t. You already know the truth:
Quote you: “I started crying and screaming, while my friend laughed and took pictures.”
That’s funny…why would INSECURE people want ATTENTION-looking hair? People who are insecure wouldn’t do this. They would try to anything BUT this. I think it seems sexy and a lot of women who did it-kudos to them-have more balls then you’ll ever have to do something like this.
I’ve always loved this looked and the same as you – I love to look at the crazy look but could never actually do it myself until now! I’ve booked an appt with my hair dresser and I’m going to JUST DO IT!!!!! I’m scared but what the hell hair is hair and life is lived once and if not why not!
P.S but is it outdated or always in, do you think? What is in at the moment??
If you really want it, do it, or else you might regret it. But at the same time, the moment it becomes out of trend will be the same moment as when part of your head is shaved. That’s just what I think.
I did this last year, it’s incredibly easy to grow out, if you side part your hair on the other side (EVEN WHEN IT IS SHAVED) it is impossible to see that it is shaved. It is a looong grow out process the part that was shaved is now like about an inch and a half below my chin and I shaved it like a bit over a year ago.
I did a search because Sasha, a contestant on SYTYCD, has her head partially shaved, as does choreographer Sonya Taye. I really hate the look. HATE it. I don’t understand why someone who can grow hair would want to do that to themselves. It makes me jump to the conclusion that they were in an accident and had to have their heads shaved for brain surgery because it’s just not a good look, not something someone would do on purpose to themselves. Sorry, but that’s my honest opinion.
This blog was written 1-1/2 years ago, so the trend isn’t new, but it’s still being followed. :-p
Plenty of cultures don’t understand what kind of make up we wear, our parents don’t understand piercings or tattoos half the time. You probably don’t get why women in other cultures wear neck rings, and some don’t get why women used to wear corsets to chance their body shape. You don’t have to get it at all, you’re entitled to your opinion, but be wary of other peoples self image when you explain why you don’t like it. That’s just my two cents.
Sweet lol so I shaved half my head Ive had it for half a year it been bright red ginger purple and my natural hair colour, dark brown. I LOVE IT Im growing it out now, my hair grows fast so I dont regret it I loved it It made me stand out from the crowd I was the first one in my small town to do it n then all of a sudden everyone had it lol its really popular I need something NEWWWWW I love outragous and crazy things and I love the woman above that have done this and they look GREAT!
I’m getting it done in a couple of days, but I’m still not sure of some things. I only want about one inch above my ear, and I want a pattern shaved in it, maybe a star or a cute heart. But how far to the back of my head do I tell the lady to cut it? And my hair usually parts in the middle by itself, and I just go with it, so will it be hard to have my hair flip to the other side once I get half shaved? Thanks a billion!
you can do it so that it goes to just at the back of your ear, like before the hairline starts curving down OR you could do it so that it curves w/ your hairline and take it all the way down to the bottom. most people choose option #1 tho….. but i shaved mine al the way to about 2/3 of the way to the top of my head, so i can do a deep part and expose it all, or i can do a semi-deep side part and let about a 1/2 inch strip of hair to fall over it and let it peek through.
ps- my middle name is Rae too! haha
i love this look!! i’ve seen it a few times where i just didn’t think it suited that person, but, i love the look so much, on most people, that i did it myself. i started shaving mine about 2 months ago and, yeah, i have to keep trimming it, but it takes a bout 2 mins and it’s not a big bother for me. i can hide it pretty easily when i feel like it, but that’s rare because i love it so much!
i think it might be a pain when i grow it out, but i’m thinking of cutting ALL of my hair pretty short so that it doesn’t look too weird when it gets a bit longer. i’ve never been one to worry about a style or color being to “risky” because, there’s usually SOME way to fix it if you don’t like it … and, if not, HAIR GROWS. 
honestly i love it
ive had it done by my aunt in her beauty shop and was like you only live once
nd that i would look really cute (i have super round face, lil chunky ish too -.-) so i went for it
tho i got yelled at by my dad (he only likes long hair) it was amazing nd i loved it
growing it out tho made it look really weird tho haha but im cutting it today again :]
you only live young once
so if i can do it with my round face nd pull it off, n e one can :]
I’m so going for it!
I’ve been wanting to do this sooo bad for well over a year. I did let it go for a little while though cuz my parents didn’t want me to. Now, I’m going into my senior year of high school and I don’t care what my parents think! Plus, I think it would be a great look to surprise my friends with to start out my last year. I’m so excited to do it! If I could, I would do it right now. But i’m probably gonna wait about a couple weeks after my senior portrait cuz I think I should at least give my parents my senior portrait with all of my hair. but after that picture is done..the hair is gone! Haha, I hope to have it before the first day of school on the 22nd. eeeek! So excited! I literally cannot wait
Crazy Cool! I just recently cut off my butt-length hair into a pixie cut with one side shaven off. It is a major confidence booster and really easy to style. The main reason I shaved on side off because it was the side of my head that kept disobeying my every attempt to tame it. Some days I can just roll out of bed and sport a look that Rhianna just sported.
WAYYYY to many girls have this. i mean at my school the first time i saw it on a girl..she was pretty and it suit her…but then one after another girls started doing this and it just looked like a attention seeking thing after. and eventually the girl who had it done grew her hair out now but girls are still doing it. idk its nice at first but after seeing it on many girls heads its like “what was unique about it again..?”
Personally not a fan, but I did have a mohawk earlier this year and that is definitely harder to grow out. At least with this look you can put is all over to the side that you’re growing out, but with a short mo I just wore hats until about a month ago (I got it done in April)
i am going to do this <3 i can't wait
hi! i did this a few weeks ago not usually my style i have realy curly hair, love loved it at first but sorta regretin it now cos cnt do nank wiv it! fil lyk shavin ma head n strtin agen cos my hairs ruind from dyin it so much, wndrin if any1s dun this n will it take years 2 gro bak? n wil it come bk curly? duno how stupid il luk cos cnt wear a wig so stuck!!!! help!
well, that’s one way to do it.
yes, it will take years (tho how many depends on how fast your hair grows and how long you’re growing it back out to). it will probably come back curly because cutting/shaving your hair can’t change the texture of it, only time and hormones can do that, so, unless your hair decides to change in that time on it’s own, or has started to already, it will grow back the same texture it is now. the other option is to just let that part grow out a bit, then, when it gets an inch or 2 long, get your hair cut into a pixie cut…… in the meantime, you can just part your hair further over so you have some hair covering the patch. good luck and i’m sorry that you ended up not liking it. :/
hi all. i am deciding to shave my side for a few days now, after searching for pictures and after reading most of the positive comments here, am going for it. my boyfriend will shave it today evening, or tomorrow. so excited!!!!!!!
There is nothing sexier than a full head of hair on a woman and this look ruins it. Kudos to those brave enough to try it but for me, no thank you.
I am only 14, nd I shaved a side of my head. At first i didnt like it tht much. Bt nw I love it more than evr, itz really different, nd it makes me look unique as well! Trust me if u r thinkng abt shaving it, DO IT! Ima get a design n it maybe nxt week, Im so excited! Bt tha only reason I cut it, is bcuz I knew it wuld grow back. I mean come on, itz only hair. Yes it may take a while 2 grow bakk, but I like it.. And thtz all tht matters!!!
im a guy and have done this and i like it
so, i’ve had mine shaved for a few months now and i’ve been wearing my hair over it a lot of the time (not that i don’t love it, just tired of it…. i need a change), so, to avoid the difficult grow-out phase, i’m thinking of just cutting my hair into more of a fauxhawk/mohawk deal.
at least it should be easier to manage while growing out….. i can just gradually change the way i wear it and blend it as it grows out. 
Six words: Look At Me I Am Ugly
Ladies, please don’t do this
I have this style to and some of my friends have it to. But now what the fuck do i see!? Fucking RIHANNA with this style? Fucking hell man i am following a trend without knowing it! I’m gonna let my hair grow ASAP
you only live once, if you want your hair cut get it. regret the things you do not the things you dont.
This has definitely helped me decide whether to go balls to the wall or be boring…. I’m doing it this week FINALLY after long contemplating. Just how many of the above have said, you have to have TRUE SWAGGER to pull this off. People can hate on it if they’d like, everyone is entitled to their opinion…but for me, I think it’s fierce! And honestly I think it takes a REAL WOMAN, some real confidence in your sexuality & femininity to rock this badass steez…”the only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.” with that said, I’m gonna rock this hair like it’s nobody’s business & cheers to everyone else doing the same. Jus Liv <3
Really …want ….. to do it …. !!!
and in my country … will be only 2 women having …this ..style ….. wwwwwwwwwwwoohhhhhhhhhhhooooooooooo
I like things …. that … little amout … of people …would dare to do …!!!!!!!!!!!
will get shaved … on Saturday …. and am really …excited …. just because … i have long curly …hair …..
I did the bottom half of my head and put a shooting star design in it. My hair was so long and I LOVE my hair but no one thought I would really do it so me and a friend went and got it done! I dont regret it at all. I didnt like it at first but its different and easily hidden.
I love, love it!! I wish I had the guts to do it. I call it the “voices carry” hairstyle. Remember that video?? She was all dainty and then threw her hat off in the opera and she was rocking that awesome hairstyle. I would do it if I hadn’t already committed to my locs and growing my hair super long.
I done mine about 7months ago now.. I got bored of my old hair so I cut it myself, Abit scared at the begining to be honest but after about a week I got used to it. DON’T shave it all the way down, leave about 2-3inches otherwise it won’t look right. It’s the new trend in my school, aha. It’s an amazing look but you’ve got to have the attitude an the confidence to rock it!
GOOD LUCK! :3
I shaved half if my hair off recently, and I loved it. It goes great with fitted caps and is really comfortable, I would suggest you put half of your hair to the side before you decide to do so though, because it might not go so well with your facial structure..
I’ve done this before! c: Mine took about two weeks before it started to grow back enough :s then it just kinda stopped now I’m still waiting for the hair to grow back
sooo, im 16 about to be 17 & i love this, there are a couple girls at my school that have it, and everyones hair is different. but i’m really considering it, but my mom wont let me. i think im going to just ask to get a hair cut, and have her drop me off, then me tell the lady, should i?! and if i do, whar kind of designs should i do? i was thinking stars or something, but that seems soo plain ! i wanna POP!! if im going to do it!
i shaved my hair like this two months ago and i love it. Not to mention i have long wavy hair and yet im still amazingly pretty. For those of you with the negative comments your just jealous because we are women who are courageous, unique, beautiful and daring. And to those who want to try it Go For It and dont worry abt what people think they’re goin to hate rather your bald on both sides or have long hair like Rapunzel. Im 16 and everyone loves it <3
Wow…amazed at all the ignorant comments on here. Firstly, a word to the menfolk: your opinion on a woman’ s hair does. Not. Matter. It’s incredibly arrogant to assume that women would only have their hair in such a style as to make them attractive to men. Women cut or do not cut their hair for all sorts of reasons- for personal expression, because it fits their lifestyle, because it suits their personal style, because they want to be part of a particular scene. The only person who has a say in what your hair “should” look like is you.
As for the “attention seeking” comments…what a load of rubbish! If you look at things this way, every facet of this blog is catering to “attention seekers.” Everyone who wears make up, blow dries their hair, wears high heels or bodycon dresses could be accused of “seeking attention.” There is nothing wrong with people wanting to make a statement with their look, and whether that statement is “look how pretty I am” or “look how trendy I am” it’s all the same.
I personally would not shave my head, because my look is very classic and simple, so it just wouldn’t look right! But for those working a more flamboyant style, I think shaved heads and Mohawks can look amazing! Like any short cut, if they’re done right they do an amazing job of bringing out cheekbones and making faces look more structured. They do require guts, because some people will never be able to think anything other than “lesbian hair,” but these are people I generally prefer to call “bigots,” so they really aren’t worth paying attention to anyway.
the thing is that my hair is really really looong. Rapunzel-like :p ,straight and dark-red .. it looks good but in a boring way ..so i think that the best thing to make it look more.. interesting,it would be to shave one side,but just a bit . I want it sooo bad , lately i have been thinking about it non-stop ,it’s like an obsession,really . But then I start to think about the fact that nobody would like it,especially the teachers,parents,those blonde long haired princesses ..and 4 yeaaars ? ohmygodnessss! So my question is,obviously.. Do you think that I should do it ? How can I tell if this thing is just an ‘obsession’ or I really want it with all my heart and soul ? p.s. I’m 16 . oh, and i have blemishes and my face is not so girly.
Sweetheart, no-one here can or should tell you if this is something you should or should not do. It’s your hair, you are the one who has to live with it, so this needs to be something you decide for yourself. But I would suggest you need to really think about why you want this; does it fit in with your general style, are you just bored with your hair, do you just want to try something “different?”
If you’re looking to reinvent yourself a bit, try to do so in less permanent ways first, in case it doesn’t feel right. There are lots of things you can do with your long hair that would be less dramatic but make it more interesting- you could try some blunt bangs, add layers, do highlights/lowlights. You might want to look at some of those too before you make up your mind. If you still find yourself drawn to this style, try looking around on Google at all the different variations of it. Some of them are so slight that you could easily cover it up by changing your parting, so you could tone down your look for school and cover it up when it’s growing. Bear in mind that once you do this, your styling options will be limited; braiding, doing “up dos” etc. is much more difficult with an undercut section because it’s sort of a style all to itself. If you like fiddling with your hair and trying new things with it, I wouldn’t recommend this. If it’s any help, I can tell you four years is not an absolute estimate of how long it would take to grow out. I’ve had my hair cut pretty much every length under the sun, and it takes me about two years to go from pixie to shoulder-length; my sister took three years to do the same. It varies from person to person.
Don’t worry too much about your parents, mine have been appalled to hear of some of the things I’ve done with my hair, but they always say things along the lines of “actually, that looks quite nice!” afterwards! As long as you don’t shave a swear in there and behave well in class, your teachers shouldn’t let your hair decide how they view/treat you, and as for the “princesses”… well, it doesn’t sound as if you care much for them anyway! The most important thing is that you are happy and comfortable with your look, not what other people think.
I did this for starting college and i pulled it off nicely it got me lots of attentsion which was to be expected but was annoying. i really want to do the other side and have a mohawk, but its my aunties wedding next september and im bridesmaid. what hair i do have is pink just now and i am starting to let it grow in, how long will this take??
what hair stlyes can i do with what i have?? Xx
I just shaved the underneath of my hair, and I need a design in it . I loove it thoughh.
Im getting it done on Wensday. Im scared to get it. There are two other girls that have it at my highschool.
I want to get this REALLY bad but what if it doesnt look good.. and What if people make fun of me?..
it’s stuiped! simple as that.. the fact is girls do it because they think oh I know I’l shave one side of my head and be original… well this is awkward look around everybodys doing it and it looks ugly! like on one side your half man and the next your a woman, besides that it’s not new trend they’ve been doing that sence the 80′s. dude my aunt had her hair like that when she was young. and look funny! XD It doesn’t suit woman end of!
i actually have this hair cut for about 1 month and i still love it! i didn’t shave on one side for attention as some ppl here said. i did it because i liked it and i feel like it represents myself. that’s all.
@Denver, ppl that will make fun of you are jealous of you because they didn’t had the ballz to do it
))
I shaved the side of my head about a month ago and i love it. Sometimes I do look in the mirror and have regrets but other days i love it. I have extensions that I wear most of the time so the thickness is still there. I like looking different than others!
Would recommend it if you are SURE. Not looking forward to growing it out though! x
i want to do the vanilla ice shave on the side of my head! because i think it looks sooo COOL! BUT im scared to do it myself D: maybe a guy should do it for me??..
Absolutely stupid looking. Why the f— would you do this to yourself? You look like an idiot
TBH you sound like an idiot to me.The girls can do what they want to their body and you’re no one to decide.
who are you guys to tell the girls they look stupid, its their body their decision, im getting it done, so adorable and edgy at the same time. get over it.
