Is there a common gamer hairstyle? What is yours?

Short hair will never go out of style.

Good Ole Mop for me.

Hair comes halfway down my back (hanging from my head, of course - I'm fuzzy, but I'm no yeti), beard comes to my collarbones, 'stache is long enough to be curled or waxed out into a Prussian handlebar.

Got long hair, scared of scissors O_O, Not really just like it long and under a hat or bandanna ^_^

i rock dreadlocks down to my knees, and shoot big guns, as my pic shows...

cheers
jah

Mullet for me.

What? I'm bringing them back!

Emo all the way! People already give gamers weird looks, you might as well give them another reason! That and the music I listen to...but that's not the point...

WTF?!?!!?!?!?!

Long hair kept up in a ponytail, though a lot of people seem to miss the ponytail and seem to think I have a slicked back short cut instead.

shaved, #2 - Motorcycle helmet friendly.

Shaved grade one, once a week, due to baldness! I make for it with some sort of facial hair most of the time.

Shaved. Habit left over from Canadian Forces. Oh, and a set of clippers is $30 and lasts ten years. A haircut now is like $12.

And I call shenanigans on that one achy-breaky, mulletronic sucka.


Iechyd da!

Emo hair wins ! <3

I had long hair for many years,only recently my woman tricked me and forced me to cut them,so now i have emo hair:(

Short hair. Best one to have in the event of a zombie attack.

Does emo hair cut itself?

Except when you're trying to look badass. When was the last time practicality helped in that kind of situation?

real men have short hair.

I recently changed to a super cool short cut personally designed for me by a nice Japanese stylist at B:Zar in Soho.

It's low maintenance, too.

Military high-and-tight.

Generic medium. It'll get long before I cut it again.

shaved head. i am not a unique snowflake.

LOL, "Like a monkey ready to be shot out into space, space monkey!"

High and tight. If it is too long for airborne school it is too long.

Hooah.

I have a short emo cut

I normally have shoulder length, curly hair... generic really. I don't do much in the way of styling or such...

I lost my hair recently, though. So it's *really* short.

It makes me sad, really... But for all intents, I put long hair. I'm growing it back out. I'll be damned if I have to endure short hair forever. >.<

I want my beautiful, flowing locks back!

Tauzor wrote:shaved, #2 - Motorcycle helmet friendly.

That's why I keep mine short. It looks like crap shaved so I rock at least a little something.

For many years I sported a mohawk,not a fauxhawk mind you,but a foot high liberty spiked red and black thing of beauty.
However,as I've aged a bit,and have a family to support now,I keep my hair in a short spikey (pseudo Billy Idol) cut.

Topknot

Aw yeah, short generic! i wear a hat all the time, so it really doesnt matter...

Text book government issue haircut, for I am but a number...once a month

Long hair. Best for rocking out and looking badass during Apocalypses.

Since medium length hair was not a choice...

Medium length

Kind of short generic hair, it looks a little bit like Captain Kirk's. No toupee however. I like the hairstyle personally, it fits me well. My opinion, of course.

Yes, well being in the military allows for only one kind of hair style really.... buzzed.

A bit longer than shoulder length

I have naturally curly hair but I've gotten into straightening my hair with the straightening iron. I guess I've also been growing it out a bit more that usual also.




-Orkishly

I have short/medium hair with a sort of Italiany/Hispanicy curl aroundy thing at the front.

I have long hair that goes down to the middle of my back.
And no matter how much gak i get about the length i will never cut it.

Whatever is stylish at the moment in Tokyo.

Generally, right now, some kind of Wolf cut.

Ozzy's hair circa 1970 with a very pointy beard. I only cut my hair once a year. Next week I'll have the Gladiator Maximus cut.

in between long and short- medium. lifelong phobia of hair clippers, scissors, ect.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
hope to grow it longer

I have a greased up pompadour.

Only long haired boy in our class. Been growing them now for 2,5 years ad they go from my head to about 5 cm under shoulders
Always been called girl when I dyed my hairs black. One time a nurse in hospital thought I was girl and said "Well doesn't the daughter look just like her mother" and I was like WTF.

Shaved clean every other day... Because I started going bald in my mid-20s.

I do my hair similarly to the way greasers used to (without the grease...); it's slightly curly so it holds that roundish shape without much effort

Long, all the way. If you're really white like me you can't get sunburn on the back of your neck!
And if you're not white, then you have really long hair!
plus if I put it in front of my eyes then no one can tell if I'm listening to them or sleeping.

Swooped like a Final Fantasy character. When I swish it or the light hits it just right, you can almost hear the ladies ovulate.

Medium length, spiky. Like Sid Vicious.

Archonate wrote:Shaved clean every other day... Because I started going bald in my mid-20s.

Amen to that. I had long hair. it was past my ass and I could sit on it if I wasn't careful. I got married at 25 and 4 months later I cut it. I had a rapidly receding hairline. Combined with long hair, it looks horrible. My wife liked the hair, but was glad she didn't have to comb it every morning (she spoiled me...and still does) before work.

Now...she loves the shaved head (every other day seems about right) and since I have a red beard we play Viking and serving wench ;P

I used to always have short hair, but now I have long hair. I'll keep it long until I get tired of it.

High and tight FTW!

Long hair, but i'll NEVER let it get longer than my shoulders.

Short hair for me, was bald and screaming for a while though!!, it didn't look good

In limbo between short and medium atm, been to lazy to get a cut.
Waiting for it to grow just a bit longer so i can make something out of it.

So nobody has a combover?

Went from long hair, then to an emo cut...(foolish me), now its gone short again and tbh thank god for that.

Other (mid-length, curly as hell)

Kind of emoish

Short hair. I used to have long hair and a beard, but I had too many random people try to buy drugs from me.

Bare blade back and sides and short on top - misses h8's it, lol says I look thug-ish!!

Bein a head of security on various security details, thats the image to be portrayed... the no nonsense look!!

Halfway between a mop and spiky emo hair, imagine a young, angsty, Paul McCartney

I've been meaning to have a haircut for almost 10 years now. Not.

mohawk for me, but I keep a short one

I have worn a Bandana on my head, at Game Conventions for 10+ years. It keeps the sweat out of my eyes and hides the "bad hair days". I now have short balding hair.
At work, I would have to answer the phone. I would get resin in my hair from removing the air mask. That is what started the, cutting off all of the hair.

For a lot of us a "bad hair day" is much better than a "no hair day." *Joke*

3% admitted balding???? I say LIARS there are more of us on here than that!

curly... looks like I have a perm... its crazy yo

Mine would be a mop if it could be persuaded to stay down. Atm it's a #4.

It looks more like a cross between Einstein and Andy Warhol (yes, it's white, as well).

Used to have a huge big fro thing that i had to tie back after a while, then I cut it short and bleached it orange. Then I died it black for some theater stuff, then I shaved it off.

Now its starting to get medium length and i need to cut it again.

Go emo hair!!

I am appalled you left out Greaser pomp. Hence OTHER

Long hair, down to the small of my back when loose, but mostly held in a ponytail. Trying to grow the front longer atm because I'd love to some celt style braids.

Gotta keep it short!

Long hair going down to just below shoulder height (so far!)

I never liked the look of my hair before I grew it long though even now I have doubts...

Short for me, easy to care for, never goes out of trend and no problem in any regiment!

Kinda a sexy choppy blue black( the boys all say its kinda slanneshi) umm yeah i like it. bangs, uhh shoulder legnth

Emo, wooh, teen angst, but I'm not very emo, more 'metal' so it's not really styled emo-ish (fringe over one eye) so it's frankly odd and uncategorisable

-Kyley

EDIT: on that mater can we have a poll about musical tastes (im off to check the past polls

i got around long/short hair, but mostly long (not so long so it goes down to my neck, but to my eyebrowns) .

Shaved, with a foo man choo.

i said other, because it basically is untamable. i keep thinking i'll grow it, then I get fed up with it because I keep getting my glasses stuck in it, then i look like a chav when it's short.

One day I will find my middle ground

I've been compared to Paul McCartney in the early 60's... that's at its average length. I get it cut short and let it grow out fairly long.

Mine grows until the Sergeant tells me shave it. He is just jeleous because he is bald.

High & tight. Voted for "crew cut".

I got a Pompadour. It used to be a white 'fro for about 8 years, but to be true, that just looked too silly (in hindsight). The '50's rock 'n roll hairstyle suits the shape of my head better than the 'fro.

Odd enough, I did get steady girlfriends with the 'fro and only fleet flirts with the pomp. hmmm...

WUT ONLY 8 MULLETS BAH

Moptop- I look like John Lennon in his younger days, except I don't get nearly as many ladies.

My hair reached shoulder length and then achieved equilibrium without needing to be cut. I'd be completely satisfied with the condition if it weren't for the fact that my hairline in front is receding.

Fohawk

I have long blonde hair and have been accused on many instances of looking like 'cousin it', or a mop when hair is not restrained through a hair band.

Not much you can do with long hair when you are a male.

Meh...I have kind of a bushy part, need a haircut. I like it pretty short, it's been too long since I've had a haircut...

i go emo people don't mock me if i have emo hair they all seem afraid

I drive motorclycle, and it gets hot, technically thats not a reason for a buzz cut, but its how i justify having really short hair (plus it is cooler as in not as warm).

I don't really have a hairstyle, I just ignore it until it gets long enough that I might have to comb it, them I buzz it off and go back to ignoring it.

Im in a paramilitary organization (Air Cadets) So it's short/buzz for me.

I'm rockin' the Bed Head 'do. Short on the side and the top stands up... not straight up, but up in general. Sometimes it looks like a fo'hawk... :(

I have short to long hair, depending on how long ago it was cut. That and facial hair I have to shave every day on account of my parents. My mom thinks 14-year-olds with a 'stache is creepy.

You should never cut your hair..

'Hair are your arials, they trasmit signals directly from the cosmos into your brain. This is the reason bald headed men are uptight.'

(Withnail and I)

lol

Long curly hair. I love it.

Ever since I got it cut... it's back to generic medium-long...

But slightly gelled back a bit to make me look seckzay.

Long hair ftw

Im pretty sure most gamers are long haird freaks.

I've got "really pretty red hair" so I like to do my part and grow it out and then donate it to the Locks of Love foundation. It makes me feel like I'm doing my part of society and that sort.

I have the bill murray up top, I keep it shaved, unless I have my ghostbusters jumpsuit on.

Shaved head for me. Noting beats being shaved on ones head

I've got a skin high fade right now. Military or not, I like keeping my hair short.

I'd grow a beard some day, if it wasn't for the fact my hair is brown, and my Beard comes in Dark black, and Red.

Ugh.

I can't wait until my hair gets a bit longer again. Then I'll finally have something to keep me from going crazy while dressed in the business casual that my summer job requires.

my hair may be short, but it is too messy to be generic! (it might have reached to the point that its alive! O_O)

I voted emo hair long ago, but now my hair is short generic.

Fafnir wrote:Generic medium. It'll get long before I cut it again.

Mhm.

Switching to buzzed this summer, and probably keep it that way for a long time.

My hair is a generic long style which frizzes and has the general appearance of a bush when i wash it and turns shiny and managable when I don't for about 2 days.
I think Nurgle is calling me because I'm more happy when I'm unwashed apparently.

I guess I have punk-style hair. I tend to spike it up a bit, but not like "I'm able to stab you with my hair!" style spiking.

Just short hair that occasionally sticks up

I used to have a long, flowing mane, but it got in the way of my various day to day activities so I cut it off.

Anyone ever have that magic length inbetween haircuts where it's just perfect?

I'll be there in about a month, I think.

I have a meduim length hair with the edges of the top of my hair spiked up (its very similer to how Johnny rotten had it in one of his music videos)

Looks like im in the minority with a punk style. I keep mine short but in full spikes.

I dont really need to tell you

just read my username! lol

I shave mine into a short mohican in summer, but have it normal for school. That'll change soon, as i wont have a school uniform!

Whatever I wake up with really, I just tidy it up a bit. =P

Cambrius wrote:Does emo hair cut itself?

LOL!!!!!! ROFLMAO!!

Had to doubletake on that one, haha.

I got short hair, military cut (but not shaved/buzzed/crew, hard to believe but the (US) military actually allows for longer hair than most people realize). Usually get a #1 or 2 on the sides and then the top trimmed so that its about twice as long. Usually get it cut about once a month, so it ends up growing out a bit but staying well within regs. I dunno, i guess I could go for the high & tight look or the buzzcut, but I prefer not to be so... obvious... in public.

Personally I'm surprised to see such a large majority with short hair...

haha does emo hair cut itself thats awesome!

My hair is long now..to dam long but i like it (:. i have posted earlier on here but its good to renew

xVoid

Mine's about eyebrow-level if if press it against my head. But I have one style- I call it "the monday morning". seriously. It grows sideways. And I will never use hair gel. To show how little I use it- I got a tube of it for my 7th birthday. It is still there on my shelf.
emo hair cuts itself? Seems to me like (s)he ripped it off the old joke "I wish my grass was emo- then it would cut itself".

See I'd say generic long but my generic long kinda naturally grows emo.

Long, flowing and luscious hair. It's like this:

I guess mostly short hair. Kinda a cross between military short (for men), and 3 inches (7.6 cm). Usually a bit spiky.

My hair is just shaggy and all crazy, is awesome though

Samus_aran115 wrote:Long, flowing and luscious hair. It's like this:

I sure hope your a girl with hair like that lol :p

I have shortish hair.

It looks alot like The Beatles haircut back in the 60s.
Just my hair grows like the Mod hairstyle naturally.


As for facial hair,it just grows untill I feel like shaving.
Around every week and a half.

Somewhere in between Short (Generic) and 'other'.

Short-Medium length, shorter sides and back, scruffy on top...

Medium fade.

Bamskis.

My Hair looks like I should be singing in a boy band.

Mullet.

Boom! Headshot

Shaved hair, #1 or #2. Basically a generic military cut. Not my choice, but hey, it's easy and cheap with your own clippers.

Long hair, slightly more than shoulder length.

Other:

Fauxhawk - Short non emo/punk mohawk

I'm a blonde fry from Futurama

Medium (Reaching my shoulders) bedhead, my hair hasn't been brushed since, (one, two, three) Three days

shaved head, but cos im going bald

Mohawk at #3 height and #0 for the rest of my head

fauxhawk really

Hair combed backwards and kept down by products. It's an uphill struggle, but i usually win the war through sheer attrition.

I'm kinda a cross between a Buzz and short hair.

depends on how long ago my hair was cut.

Curly indie mop. Short beard.

Samoan-style (wide) mohawk, cut short, with the sides faded up and a design cut into the left side. It's black, and the top has yellow (no, not blonde; yellow) streaks in it.

I just got it cut and dyed yesterday by a friend of mine. It's fething sexy.

I've wanted dreadlocks for so long, but after about six failed attempts over the years, I've given up hope. I have ridiculous curly hair, so I have to keep it short or I can't do anything else with it, but the haircut I have now looks good on me and I hardly have to do anything with it.

Mid-short sort-of curly dark hair

A vast mane of untamed curls. I've basically just abandoned my hair for the past two years to see what it will do. It never fails to amuse mewith its antics.

varies between long and emo so i voted other
more of a Goth cut really

I have an emo cut I guess, hate to call it that. But I in no way adhere to this ridiculous youth ideal

I used to have 10 inches of awesome head-banging hair...but then I got a good job and had to look "respectable"

...plus, women prefer dudes with short hair lol

so we know there's at least 32 black guys who play wargames somewhere...

long, and a bit lanky.

How would you describe thick fuzzy hair? just short because its not, its just compact.

Short spiked emoish look

My hair is somewhere between short and long most of the time. I let it grow for quite some time before having it cut. I mostly do this because the girls say that I look cute with it, and with a machine cut I look like a complete psycho, although it is damn practical.

Have hair
no style

one side of my head is shaved the other is long in the front then shorter in the back.

Buzz cut: range from a 2-5 on the clippers for life!

other, braided tail down the top of my back skull (no more than 1 and a 1/2" thick) lanking toward my middle back, rest of my head bald except for my sideburns. True

Shaved #3, but since I'm a bit lazy it have grown a bit.

Somwhere between generic short hair and generic long hair. Think Luke Skywalker hair, and you've got it to a T.

me, i have long generic hair that goes just past my neck
I get took the mick out of everywhere but games workshop is the only place where it does not matter

10" Green Mohawk....though my new jobs going make that disappear...

I have this type of Hair.

Ralin Givens wrote:10" Green Mohawk...

I salute you.

I have a crewcut, but leave a few strands in the middle-front a bit long, so I can gel it and look like superman

Where's the bed head? My hair doesn't obey me period.

Ineed2bucks wrote:Where's the bed head? My hair doesn't obey me period.

HA! That just made my day! I have a mid lenght hair style (not sure how to explain)

If anybody knows what Edward Elric's hair looks like, in "Conqueror of Shamballa", that's mine, but without that bit that sticks up in the front. I thought I'd go for it, considering I look just like him, minus the golden eyes and being short.

I wear short twin tails these days.

Basic...short...yeah

Moptop, i guess. People say i look like george harrison.

Isn't that the technical qualification for a YARDIE?

Whats hair? Receeded so shaved!

You can't rock without long hair of the gods.

Short Hair. No styling needed

Fauhawk

Short hair at the minute.

To long hair style

I have a head of fabulous shoulder length auburn curls. When they're wet I look like an extra from Lord of the Rings. When they're dry they expand and gently coil up in a full, thick mane the color of milk chocolate.

Last night I got my wife to shave all my hair off, number 1 all over. Just recently I had it shaved on the right side and long at the back and left side, it looked like a mohawk gone floppy.

I suppose kinda emo-ish? It's long, and I have a fringe. Think Attack Attack! style hair.

Doesn't everyone who's been in GW know that every gamer has a beard or a ponytail?

I take the #2 attachment on my Wahl and go from my back of my head to my beard

MOHAWK FOOS

High and tight medium fade! Ha!

I go between having my afro and short hair. Whatever works.

High and tight; that's what 12 years of Catholic school and eight years in the service yields. Wouldn't change it for the world.

generic old metal hair, but not greasy

Rockin the rat tail like it is 88

Right now I look like Doc Brown but I am going to shave my head soon

Stupid 670-1 and Army regulations

Messy curly blonde, probably the closest a white guy can get to an afro.

For the moment I am sporting no haire

my hairs about 2"-3" short, with a natural quiff, and the style "au de monday morning" (basically I wake up, have breakfast, get dressed, and leave the house without looking in the mirror or making any effort towards my hair other than flattening it with a hand occaisonally and washing it most days.
I am often asked why, and my reply is that if someone cares more about what I look like than what my personality is, then they're not worth my time and I'm probably not thiers. Plus I've rather gotten used to it now, so I might as well keep it, and I think it rather suits my character.

"Long hair (generic) 17% - [ 405 ]"

Holy ****.

This forum is my paradise.

Mohawk!

Spiky but not punk really - so other I guess

Long hair in a ponytail atm, and I hate it but locks of love and what not...

Just a round-ish bush of fluff-stuff.

not really an afro, just unstyled and messy

Long hair (never tied back unless I'm at work) and van dyke beard.

Mop top hair, I don't care enough about it to do anything with it. Plus my wife said she thinks it will look good once I grow it out.

End of Line

Hair: gak.

Its not short but its not long! Somewhere in the middle haha

Bald shave, beard is about 12inches growing strong.
