"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I was debating on whether or not this was better to place in this part of sosuave or in the Anything Else part...but since it technically has something to do with getting women I might as well...

Anyway I have shaggy hair that comes down to the back or my neck, over my eyes, and goes down to my eyebrows. It looks kind of surferish.

Anyway the girls love it, but I think I want to cut it short, something low maintenance that still looks good. It's annoying when I get out of the shower and an hour or 2 later it starts to get coarse and curl in the heat.

I don't really know about hair so could somebody recommend a nice cut? Preferably with a picture?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I get my hair cut short - but not buzz cut. The way I like to get my hair cut is that I'll go to a new salon, and tell them in general what I want (very general - like longer on the top than the sides, no clippers on the top, etc...) and I give them freedom to do the rest.

If I like what they've done better than the last place, then I keep going with them until my situation changes and I find a new stylist. If I don't like it, then I keep searching.

i have buzz cut. it's manly and bad a$$ - i use to have hair all the time slicked back like the mafia but since having a buzz ive had more action. plus i dont really have that much hair in the front part anymore so the buzz cut kinda evens my hair shape out. my ex couldnt stop patting my head all the time, she loved it :)

that and i love getting up and not worrying about my hair anymore. combing it and gelling it or whatever. i just get up and im done.

it's called the homo style.

seriously, guys are getting way too feminine these days with their hair and body. i always see guys with faggy hair styles and skinny jeans, hair over one eye. makes me sick.

mines a bit shorter. bad ass
You should watch some RSD...

So does anyone know the style I'm talking about? I don't think going from shaggy surfer hair to a buzz cut would be a good look for me

why not? i did. had curly hair. even had an afro at one stage. unfortunately my hair was thinning so my buzz cut makes me look better than having thin hair. but i love it and so do women. doesn't work for everyone i guess.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

My current hair looks like the new hairstyle Tom Brady has that somehow made Yahoo news...girls like it, my mom likes it (duh), but I don't think I want to worry about it all the time

Please don't post a stupid celebrity picture, I'm not gonna walk in a salon and ask for the "Antonio Banderas"

Seriously I want a style that I can actually ask for when I get the cut

Does a male executive at an investment firm let his hair get shaggy just because he's an alpha guy with lots of responsibility and money and doesn't "need" a good haircut to continue those things? HELL NO. Anyone who cares about how they look will want to groom themselves in a way that complements their features!!!

If a cheap haircut makes me look like I'm going bald, accentuates my big floppy ears, and makes me look relatively unkept, I'm not sure that I would consider it manly to continue getting my haircut that way just because it's inexpensive.

If I can pay 30 bucks for a haircut every other month that grows in nicely and hides major defects, then why not? It doesn't make my feminine, but it does help me feel more confident and look better put-together than other men around me.

I cut my own hair and in such a way that I can style it depending on mood or situation, keep sides short like #2 guard, top is about 1.5 to 2", fade in between which was a b!tch to perfect myself...can do spiked up top(putty from axe), swooped over kinda ceaserish style hair(american crew fiber) or even a fauxhawk(pomade from axe)

hair is important, fix that sh!t and get more female attention instantly

Some would say that a big bushy beard is manly, and let's face it... it is a pretty damn manly thing!

Then again, most women find a big bushy beard to be EXTREMELY unattractive!

Not all uber-manly things look good on everyone. An individual's style stems from his/her physical strengths and weaknesses, and are secondarily tailored to the person's sense of style/fashion.

There's nothing wrong with looking and dressing fly. Call it metrosexual if you want, but if you're well kept and still masculine in form/figure, it'll help your situation.

Non celebrity pictures of me. Like was said, it's all about face shape. As you watch the age progression you can see how when my bone structure changed, the hair (facial and headwise) changed with it to complement me better.


Old as hell, and beard needed trimmed up. Still, this is sadly probably the most recent photo documentation of myself I have. (19 yrs old?), but the hair is similar, though a tad shorter now. Eyebrows are now under control lol. Short and sweet is the way to go.

17 years old. My hair is about the longest it's ever been in this picture. I thought it looked messy, but it got a lot of female attention at this stage. I think longer hair is best suited to a scrawnier body, hence, as I bulked up I cut it shorter.

http://www.myspace.com/my/photos/photo/22800046/Album

15 years old. Subtract my beard, six inches of height and 70lbs of post pubescent muscle and there I am. This length of hair is the closest to what I have now. Clean and shaved.

I simply want to know the name of the hairstyle at 5:09 in the video now.

Karl your links didn't work, at least not for me.

I want something short and that's one of the only ones I like, so can somebody watch that video and tell me what I would have to say to my hairstylist in order to get that cut?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
