Does hairstyle really matter?

[sharpshooter]

I've got like an early 90's punk hairstyle going. Sorta long (2 and a half inches all around, with today's standard that's long), puffy, and combed up. Hard to explain, almost like an spikey/wavy fro or something. the entire top of my head is dry spiked up and the sides are combed down.

I walk around college and see all these guys with their clean cut haircuts and they all look the same to me. I used to be that way a couple of years ago. Used to waste my time with gel and all that stuff. Now it's like, i just comb/puff it up with my hands and leave for the day. One of those hairstyles where you can't really mess it up...because it's already a "controlled" type of mess.


Now my question is. Does hairstyle matter to chicks? I have a feeling that the majority of chicks prefer guys with clean cut hairstyles/haircuts.

I knew it... oh well

I really can't stand getting my haircut ever since my barber retired. They usually turn out awful due to a misunderstanding with the barber (those damn italian barbers).

Hey, lay off the Italians!

Anyway, hairstyle doesn't really matter as much as people think. Just as long as it suits your style and it isn't a bad haircut (see: most of Vanilla Ice's style) then you should be fine.

Don't take my word for it. If you're out to get a specific category of female then I guess your hairstyle will work.

I think people normally dress and style their bodies to suit a specific category of people. IF your category is goth, then you dress like a goth, right?

I think it all depends on what kind of girl you want!

well. i'm not specifically looking for any type of chick. It's just that the way I have my hair, it really suits my face well. I think it looks good on me, my friends tell me it looks good. However, i'm just not sure if it's holding me back from chicks/giving them the right first impression. It's not outrageous by any means, it's pretty normal, just not a regular clean cut style. I get a lot of looks while i'm walking down. But i'm not sure if they're the right type of looks or what. I don't dress like i'm living in the 90's though, I dress pretty trendy. So I think that's unique (having an old hairstyle but dressing clean cut)

Wear a style that suits your face. One style might look good on one guy but then look terrible on another guy.
