Answer 1

Heyz, i got a similar situation in the past, 4 or 5 times in fact. I think i might be able to help you as I learnt afew hairdressing tips from my friends . (I'm a guy who keeps long hair and knows that if it is short to a certain length, it sticks up naturally.)

I divide this to 5 steps, hope it will help you.

1) Is your hair layered? If so, you can consider having a spikey look overall. the trend which is hot now is spikey at the top and flatter on the sideburns, spikey at the back.

2) Is your hair coloured? Short hair looks much better when colored with a light color (blonde) than black.

3) use GEL and SPRAYS, these things are really strange to me, my hair seems to grow much faster when i use them. not scientifically proven 100% though. Garnier is my choice.

4) Do you use conditioner? Shampoo and Conditioner it before you go out can help it be flatter naturally when u style it.
put more conditioner and leave it longer on the spot which sticks before washing it off. Pantene (silky) is good. VO5 not bad. L'oreal wears off after a few hours. in my own views.

5) if you can help it, Don't wear a hat, it will only make you look more like a boy if it doesn't suit your normal image.

3 weeks is the norm to look great again :)

Answer 2

I just made the same mistake my hair was really long and I cut it so short it was a military haircut except the bangs I left a little bit longer it looks ridiculous I feel like a boy I don't even like leaving my house I'm so embarrassed and I just don't feel like me anymore for the first time in my life I'm starting to have self-esteem problems. My hair is naturally very thin and curly so it gets frizzy very easily and bc it's so short stick straight up in the air all over the place. If I what it with water a lot that seems to help & got2b smooth operator helps allot. You asked about foods to eat I'm not sure which foods but I know prenatal vitamins make your hair grow. I would love to get extensions but they sound very expensive so I'm going to try coloring it something fun and see how that goes.

Just take it easy, it only lasts a few weeks until the hair grows long enough to lie down better (depending on how short you had it in the first place). I buzzed all my hair off when I was 19, try to find some humor in the situation and don't take yourself that seriously. If you can learn to just have a chuckle at yourself then let your friends have a chuckle, it'll all go over better than ducking and hiding and stressing over it.

The only thing you can do besides wait for it to grow out a bit is get the strongest hair gel designed for spiking hair (it might also be labelled as hair wax) and try putting some of that in it to slick it down. Depending how short your hair is that may or may not work but it's worth a try.

There's nothing you can eat or do to make hair grow any faster than it always has. Its rate of growth is genetically based and you can't change it. Just try and let go a little and remember it's only a few weeks out of your entire life.

Answer 4

Take purely a splash of pomade, rub it in you palms then paintings by way of you hair, that's heavy sufficient to get your hair to place down whether it won't make it problematical, do only no longer use too plenty.

Answer 5

Ok Adelle,,Firstly,,you need better friends,,,cause you shouldn't have to hide anything from friends.
ok,,,check out this product called Garneir,,,(b right green bottles),,,they make shampoo for hard to control hair and it really works,,,,trust me,,,,I had a frizz problem and this stuff really settled down my frizzies.
SHort hair is 'in',,,,try painting a few highlights here and there,,jazz it up,,,I'm sure your hairstyle can be changed to make you feel better about it!!

Answer 6

I prefer hair that is shoulder length or longer, As well as since that men who like ladies are more often then not right, they like long hair because that looks more feminine, as most males have short hair.

Answer 7

If you need help to get your hair to start back growing you need to get this grease called Dr.Miracles its at any beauty supply and it about 7.99 it works really good cause I had that same problem I went to the shop to get my ends clipped and they cut too much of my hair off and I asked my friend who had a simular hair problem and she told me to use it and I did and it really works.

Why don't you just live with it and move on with your life?
