He looks like a punk girl I once knew and for that reason, I don’t have an issue with this haircut. Yeah it’s kinda silly but bullying kids because they enjoy silly things is cruel.
lol, kids these days and their stupid tastes, amirite?
I remember thinking “these fucking mulletted hicks” when we moved to missouri and I was a little kid, like 6… but had never seen a full on mullet IRL, then was suddenly surrounded by them all ages and not just the boys either.
What blows my mind is when stupid shit like this comes back into vogue. I lived through so much cringe the first time, and I loathe doing it all over again.
Not that I’m the height of fashion or anything, myself. If not for my wife, I’d be wearing long white tube socks with my shorts.
I’m the opposite, I say bring on the stupid shit and do it often! Life’s short and looking kinda silly on purpose sometimes is fun. My most recent foray into such was a mustache large enough to be mocked by my daughter’s soccer teammates, first practice, basically on sight hahaha. Causing her to cry (and me to shave it, lol, but it was fun while it lasted, and I don’t intend to further traumatize her with sartorial silliness).
Maybe I’m just too high, but I’m a bit annoyed that her soccer teammates are such mean girls. Like, I know teenage girls are stupid mean, but that’s gotta be pretty tough for her to have such judgemental “friends”.
I’d be wearing long white tube socks with my shorts.
This is actually a trend now. Gen Z is about it, and judges the old heads for ankle sock
Whatever will they all think when I avoid both trends and wear no socks at all?
Probably that my feet stink, I guess.
“No show” socks have been a thing for quite some time, so…?
As a gay man, I think I can say this without it being controversial, kid looks like a {redacted}.
Ain’t no controversy. I see a teen with hair like that and I know they’re the opposite of cool. It tells me immediately to never cross paths with them if I am ever near any lockers.
Is that an early pic of one of the island boys?
That is definitely a face a person would make after kissing their twin brother.
This is what the cool kids look like in a sci-fi movie from 2003 set in the year 2103
Taylor Swift, is that you?
At some point kids want agency, and hair is an accessible “medium” Youths will always show “rebellion” with hairstyles and clothes.
I will even fake outrage so not to spoil the fun
I never considered that being outraged as an adult was actually half of that contract. Im gonna have to practise the old man fist shake
The barber is Bohdan Vasylkov, based in Warsaw, Poland. This one in particular is posted on his Instagram as a “Neo-Saiyan Cut.”
Honestly, this is probably one of the least offensive ones lmao.
He’s actually doing some really new and interesting things. Probably none of it is going to catch on as a look, but it’s unique.
Also, a lot of the cuts look interesting because of how he shaves it. A week or two after the cut and it will lose the effect - another reason why none of these will trend.
Yeah that was my first thought after getting over the weirdness of it, “How manageable is this hair going to be after getting home and later as it grows out?”
I’m 2 weeks that kid is gonna look like he lost an argument with a weed whacker lol
Wow, in my head, it was Vegeta + bowl cut.
What is there to debate? I couldn’t care less about someone else’s haircut.
This type only lasts a few weeks anyway, after that it will just look uniformly short.
It’s debatable that it sparks debate.
Juicy.
Why does he look like he is shitting and crying at the same time?
He looked in the mirror
Because he knows.
I think it’s what they’re calling it “the Gen Z Stare.”
Thanks for the link that is really fascinating, though I also want to acknowledge that I feel almost crazy if this is a prevalent thing and I haven’t noticed?
I’d be kinda pleased if it were largely a rejection of performative positivity, one of the theories presented. I think we could all stand to be a bit more honest with each other about how things are going. Actually I think it’s probably necessary, if we’re ever going to meaningfully change.
I do worry about the ways the COVID pandemic (another theory) interrupted social development for an enormous number of kids, just huge. Though to be clear I was in favor of pretty strict, sweeping measures to limit spread, and don’t feel differently today.
I bristled a bit at first, on the mention of “quiet quitting” - AKA behaving perfectly rationally, given the available opportunities and treatment today, by my measure. But the (still Wikipedia) article it links to is a solid overview of a collective action tactic, so hell yeah.
e: can’t help but elaborate sometimes
Just had his braces tightened.
He ate hot wings last night.
Yeah, give me the “I want to see your manager” in the front and “I am the fire starter” in the back. Thanks.
“I’m torn between wanting a bowl cut or the guy fieri.”
“Sit down, fam, I got you.”
I’ve never seen a haircut that looks infected before.
The infected mushroom
I like their music and i was completely devastated when i found out they are zionists. Just commenting so other people also know. Psytrance kinds developed as music for peace and a lot of artists, including one of the members of infected mushroom, have trauma from the israeli military.
nice
