I might need a TED Talk on how to handle mid/long range hair in the near future.

He's the only person I'll let do it anymore tbh.) I do really like the purple though, more so than the red.

Ask your stylist if they have / are using the Provana hair dye, I've had spectacular luck with it, though I don't know if it would help with the curly part. My hair is naturally very straight.

My mom does my hair for the most part, we use Manic Panic dyes since they're pretty cheap as far as I'm aware. I heard purple fades the fastest though so that's also part of the reason it didn't stick as long as the reds did; I got like 5 or 6 months out of the reds before they started turning either orange or blonde at the ends. That worked out HEAVILY in my favor cuz it had a kinda ombre goin since the tips would fade faster than the roots, so I had a kinda yellow, orange, red thing goin for a bit.

i've been trying to grow mine out for the past year+ because i chopped it off while i was bonkers. my hair hasn't been healthy in years because i began wearing it naturally ~2.5 years ago and i don't know how to take care of natural hair. anyways now i have new hair care products and am experimenting with protective styles. i'd post pics but i haven't had "pic-worthy" looks in a while.

what about y'all?

my hair is wild and free. I look like a mad scientist except younger

My hair is the longest it's been since I was 17. I chopped it off in college and started to grow it out after Christmas 2016.

It's been a challenge because I have trichotillomania, so I keep wanting to chop it short.

Waiting to get it to a length where I can braid it again...but I honestly will probably cut it once it gets there.

I'm normally pretty lazy when it comes to hair. I cut it twice per year, beard and hair at the same time. Sometime in October/November, and then sometime in April/May, and then I do a touchup before AN.

Got extra lazy last October/November because it was coming around that I might not stick around to still have my job come the new year with my job transitioning owners over, so I procrastinated it to next April/May.

Everything shut down for Canada in March, so realistically I haven't touched my hair or anything hair-wise since last Anime North in 2019. It's quite long now, it goes past my shoulders. Still can't get used to it. Longest I've ever had it in my life.

I have considered shaving mine all off as well but I have eczema across the top of my head.

That's what my husband thought for a while. He shaved it just last month, like razor shaved shiny smooth.

It actually looks really good and he shaves it every couple of days. He does have a long beard though otherwise he would look like a man-baby.

I've got chest-length hair that I've maintained since 2015. I love having it, even though it's a bit of a hassle at times.

I'm currently looking hard for a job in the engineering field, and I'm really worried that they're going to ask me to cut it. I've heard that engineering firms tend to be on the conservative side, and some of the old guard still see men having long hair as being deviant or unprofessional.

oh shit are you really in nlv? I'm on the east side lol

as long as it's neat and maintained, you're fine imo. anecdotally I've done some contracts related to systems engineering and one of the contractors I worked with had shoulder length hair

Oh damn, I need to update that. I moved to Texas last month.

That's comforting to hear. I keep it neat and tied back whenever I am at work, so hopefully it won't be too much of an issue. An older engineer I know said that long hair is seldom an issue for engineers, since they usually don't interact with customers that much.
