I have been blessed with a good head of hair.in my youth I liked to have my hair cut very short,much to the dismay of my late mother.
Now in my latter years I have my hair in different styles ,short and spikey ,greased back or blown back .and once again I've gone very short.my family have decided to make their views known.
I'm 56 not a teenager ,can't believe they are getting so worked up about .
I say I'm still the same person I was yesterday,today and tomorrow and no amount or lack of hair will change that .
Rant over .
Happy new year to all of my non judgemental friends on here.
Gary

That's just plain mean and says rather more about them than it does about you! What is it about having short hair that makes people think they can comment on your appearance?! (I once had a no 4 haircut and it elicited no end of comments, mostly negative).
I don't care what people say about my hair Gary. I had it long for a while (I'm 61) and had comments about how much I suited it shorter, their way of saying they don't like it. I got it cut really short in March but now growing it again and the comments are starting up. I'm fortunate that my natural colour is still brown and I have it highlighted in 'magenta' red and those that don't like it can go whistle!
Stick with your decision to do what you like with it as it's no one else's business. Enjoy and embrace your new look.☺
Gosh, is that all they have to worry /comment about? What about saying how good you look being a little less ‘well covered’ or how they can see that your walking and generally being more active is improving your health and overall outlook.
Well, we all think you look great! It’s your hair - dye it green if you feel like it!!
Wishing you a Very Happy New Year - and enjoy that wind running through your hair (long, short, or however you want it to be) whilst Running and having fun in the months ahead.
Hi Gary hope your day got better. I am 63 now and have stopped worrying about what other peoples opinions of what I do. It tends to come from their own insecurities and you can't regulate that. I hope your new year brings lots of good things and you achieve your goals.
I take it you'll be running even faster now with the streamlined head.....😅 Just ignore it all and save yourself from an ulcer later on! You are a fabulous person who is so kind and supportive - just be you and all us non-judgmentals will be very happy with that!
Take care and a happy, healthy and serene New Year xx
Might post another rant later,depends how it goes.
All the best .
Gary
Gary - I sooo know how you feel - I had long hair and had at least 5" cut off about two weeks ago the comments from family and friends saying it doesn't suit me etc etc.
It's your life your hair do with it what you want
OK in my case I don't like it either but that is not the point
Oh Gary don't take any notice it's fantastic that you care about your appearance and if you didn't and you let yourself go then you would get comments too It's jealousy It's what makes you feel good that matters I wonder if you were female would anyone make comments
What ever You feel most comfortable with is right for you Gary. Short is better than a comb over😂
My hubby likes darts . Have you ever seen the dart player “ Snakebite Wright” with brightly coloured Mohican and painted snake on the shaved side....😂 perhaps you should shock your critics..
No they are not light on top,I'll keep it short now anyway .
My hair my choice .
Thanks
Gary
My husband shaves his head completely and he is 39. I love that look and it looks good on you. Who cares what people think. My MIL thinks that since I'm in the midforties I shouldn't have long hair. I do what I want with it anyway.
