How do I ask the barber for it?
>>18232477show them this picture and several different ones from the movie. the barbers not going to think youre a crazy loner weirdo, even though youd probably like that
>>18232477yes
>>18232477its called "the reluctant hero", trust
If this is your movie why would you not go for the mohawk
>>18233126because that's cringe.
>>18233134Too inhibited huh
it's just a social cut with more volume.
>>18232477Literally show them the picture
>>18232477It is a fairly generic 1970s era man's short haircut. It looks like his cut is more or less even all around, but it is somewhat more trimmed at the back of the neck and by the ears. It isn't quite a short back and sides haircut, but it is not a completely even all around bowlcut, either. It is a fine haircut for a man today to have, if underrated at this time.
>>18233214no matter what I tell the barber, they always cut the sides of my head too short which destroys me mentally for about 2 weeks because I have a round skull and protruding ears.I usually let my hair grow to about the length in OP but it looks messy and unkept so I go get it trimmed but they always destroy it.
>>18233223Do they buzz everything on the sides very short, like an undercut? It seems that a lot of barbers just end up doing that, most of the time, for their clients, and they probably thought you wanted the same. Have you showed photographs, yet?
>>18233225No, they kind of just give me a scissor cut until it's about an inch long. I showed some pic of Francisco Lachowski before and he said that it only looks good for a photo but in reality i'll have to get a haircut again a week later and told me if he wants me to cut it shorter and I agreed like a cuck. The best haircut for my skull shape looks like the "need to get a haircut" haircut because of my ears and skull shape. I'm happy with how my hair looks about 2 - 3 weeks after I get it cut but then another 2 weeks later it starts looking too messy and I need to get it cut again. Problem is I legit don't know how to communicate with barbers. They never understand what i'm trying to say.Last time I literally said "don't cut too much around the ears because they stick out and" and he looked at me like i'm an alien.
>>18233225Here is me a few days ago right after a haircut. I will not leave my house for a few weeks because of it
>>18233232Maybe you could tell them to take an inch off all around, and slightly taper the lower back of the neck. That might result in having slightly longer sides than you usually end up with.
>>18233241Longer sides is probably want you want a little more of, yeah.
>>18233243>>18233244I really feel like i've tried everything. Even when I get one to understand what i'm saying, he'll still say shit like "oh this only looks good for a modelling photo but you'll have to get it cut really shortly afterwards" or whatever the fuck. I think i'll just have to take pics of myself when my hair is at the perfect length and just tell them to go back to that length when i'm getting it cut. It's so annoying that they only know how to do one type of haircut.If that doesn't work I might dry a hairdresser or maybe even doing it myself.
>>18233244thanks for understanding though. I don't know why it's so hard for others to get this.
>>18233246You could also word it this way, "Trim my hair an inch all around so that it takes off two months of growth, and slightly taper the back of my head," or something like that, when you reach a longer length. That way, the implication is that about an inch should be removed, and no more. I have trimmed the sides of my head with scissors carefully, before. It probably wasn't perfect, but my ears are kind of pointy, and utterly short isn't really my thing, either.
>>18233250Good idea. I usually get my haircut about a month to a month and a half after what I posted a few minutes ago. So I might wait 2 months and then basically tell them to take a month's worth of hair off.
>>18232477I've literally had this haircut my entire life and still done know what it's called
>>18232477Show him that picture you autist, you act like people trying to get cuts like actors is absurd, most barbed I have been to have headshots of actors/musicians. Hell I even once used a picture of an anime character to get the cute I wanted and I got just what I was looking for, just be honest with your stylist.
>>18232477give me the medium length normal guy
>>18236118yes
>>18232477Bad one.
>>18232477You're not Robert de Niro in the 70s, pal. Go outside. Live your own lame ass life. Lmao.
Let me ask, what kind of haircut is this? It’s especially interesting how she looks from behind, from the side
>>18240341Pic
>>18233134Pussy nigga
>>18233243>Maybe you could tell themWhy would anyone go to a tranny barber?
>>18233134Travis wouldn't care what others think. Caring what others think is cringe
>>18233126Becauee he's not in war mode yet.
I hate barbers so much bros. None of them know how to cut hair properly. They always fuck up the back. Why wwould you shave it square near the neck? Holy fuck.
>>18233232Dude pick one barber and keep going back to them. They learn your head and get better after a few times communicating what you want. Have you just been going to random people every single time?
>>18248857Not him but I have the same problem. And to answer your question, I've only had my hair cut 2 or 3 times in the past 5 years. Those times were when I wanted to meet up with online friends and wanted to look normal. I need to get my hair cut before January because I'm meeting up with a female friend from overseas and would like to look good when she comes. The problem is, I'm afraid a barber is going to fuck my hair up. I want long, messy hair on top and short back and sides. But there are so many ways a barber could fuck that up and give me something I don't want. I might have to pay a bit extra and go to a 'stylist' or something. Someone I can show some photos to, and be sure I'll get the desired result. I'm a bit nervous about that but I'll have to suck it up.
>>18232477travis bycicle?
>>18248857I tried multiple different barbers over multiple years. They all cut it too short. They focus too much on making it look “neat” which isn’t what I want
>>18249705Fisrt off you have multiple mental problems Secondly go to a hair stylest not a barberThirdly actually show them what you want with pictures and shit, you can't just awkwardly mumble at them while avoiding eye contact and get exactly what you want
>>18248875>>18249705For both of you >>18249727is right. You’ll need to go to a women’s type salon(not insulting you here, they just deal with styling hair more than just cleaning it at a barber) Tell them you just want to clean/trim it up but want to keep the shape overall.
just keep the sides clean and let the top grow out longer. Don't need to show a picture to the STYLIST just tell HER you want the sides and top to be different lengths.I almost always use a female stylist/barber over an all male barbershop 90% of barbershops in my area is just a place to get a fade and gossip. The stylist I have now always recommends stuff that might make the cut look better and usually it does.
>>18249705specifically tell the stylist you don't want to use clippers. Scissor cut only.
>>18249817I do ask for scissor cut.
>>18232498wow who would have thought of such a ridiculous idea
>>18249815if I keep the sides "clean" which is what they do, it just exposes my tiny round skull and monkey ears. >>18249727How the fuck do I have mental problems???and I do show them pics.Either they say shit like "that only looks good for a photoshoot, you'd need another haircut a week later" or they ask me "so what exactly is it that you want me to do?"
>>18233223>destroys me mentally for about 2 weeksYou are weak.
>>18233223>it looks messy and unkeptThat's exactly what OP's picture looks like
>>18254397yes but in a stylish way, not a homeless chud way.
>>18256293yes
>>18232477show him picture of your dad
>>18233232pick a strand of hair near ears with two fingers>THIS LONG PLEASE NOT SHORTER
>not sure if thread of insecure retards or of retards who get the cheapest haircut possible and are surprised when it sucks
>>18258834Hard to tell how it’ll all look like when done that way.
>>18232477Regular 70's haircutDe Niro was meant to be a outcast that didn't stand out too much. he wasn't stylish
>>18260080I know. Why is it so difficult to get one though? I don't like modern haircuts.
>>18243597Travis is a turbosperg who thinks bringing a girl to a porn theatre was a good idea for a first date
>>18261186
>>18232477speaking of travis, whats the jacket type called pls?
How do I ask the barber for this? And don't say show them the picture.
>>18236113What character was it?
>>18264733Hard to tell what the back looks like, but ask for a scissors cut and a slickback with no texturing. Sides and back should be about 1~1.5cm shorter than the top and leave about 0.5cm on the strands near the temples so you can cover it if you have any recession. I think Oscar Isaac had a similar hairstyle at some point so maybe look for his pictures if you need more reference.
>>18264736thanks :)
>>18232477Say "Give me a haircut", and then wait three months.
>>18249804This. I wouldn't let a barber mow my lawn.
high inhib loserjust show the pic
>>18267935ok
>>18243597One of the most noticeable features of Travis personality is that he's easily influenced by what people tell him, usually to contradictory results
>>18233232Are you me????
>>18232477The Sonic Youth
>>18233126I have a mohawk already.
>>18232477"Give me the Justin Bieber"
>>18270351this
>>18272213no
>>18270351i feel like this is going to mean something very different in a few months
>>18275828Yes
