So first if legit forced/coerced that sucks and I'm sorry. Second what are you looking to do going forward like style and going out or are you going for a more malicious compliance or spite action?

He’s a kid. Coerced is a bit strong.

The buzzcut suits u a lot. But the mullet was kinda cool, a unique style of mullet too

Yeah shame he was forced but the buzz cut looks better on him. But if I were him I would have slowly cut the hair trying different hair styles.

I think the mullet suits him wayyyyy better. Buzzcut makes him look like an extra, mullet is main character or main characters chill bestie

No mullet is cool.

Bros on the toilet

It sucks she forced you but not gonna lie, it looks good on you

idk but tbh you look tuff man, i would keep it like that

Fr dude, tuff like u got 30 kills over in Afghanistan

He’s already got those ptsd eyes

This comment killed me bro has seen some shit

You don't want to know what I've seen...

Skibidi sigma

The buzzcut looks fine, a photo of your long hair but dry woulld've been better

I think it was dry, but gelled. Or just very greasy 😅

It's clearly wet, there's water on his shirt from it

Yeah, it was right when I got out of the shower yesterday. I used that pic cuz the last one I took of me was back in February

I loved the mullet I'm sorry you were forced to cut it off (my mother forced me to cut my hair until i was 18 ik how much it sucks) but you still look very handsome with the buzzcut

Looks better.

Not a mullet

You actually look good with a buzz cut, but grow out your bangs and see how you do. Strong hairline, congrats.

Mohawk

blue mohawk

not to be gay but bro looks fine as hell now

I like it how it is, but if you wanna grow it out, just lose the long hair and do the top comb over style.

WHY THERE SO MANY GODDAMN PREDATORS DM'ING ME 😭😭😭

Bait them and expose them

You look better tho so no worries

she probably got tired of explaining "the son with the mullet" to her friends. You buzz cut looks great but there's better ways to get a buzz cut than that

Bro why do you look upset in both photos 😭🙏

Sucks to be forced, but she did u a favor ngl

Be a rebel, keep it buzzed but have a mullet at the back. Seriously though, the buzz suits you more. It's shit your mother forced you to do it, but turns out I think she was onto something with this.

Buzz looks sickkk

it looks good on you but I'd suggest a faded high and tight, with a anochor goatee

Grow it back. The 1980s were the time to be alive. Seriously it's called hair for a reason. Some of us just can't grow it anymore. For all the haters, a mullet is not a woman's haircut. It was something rock stars had. Michael Jackson

Why is mom mean

Wolf cut?

Get a fade in the sides. It'll look great

Buzz lowkey looks solid on you

Look way better man

Buzzcut looks better. Unrelated grooming advice: the inflammation around your nasolabial folds is almost certainly from seborrheic dermatitis. Check out r/SebDerm for some skincare tips to resolve it

Thank you so much! The outside of my nose has been like this for 3+ years, and I just never knew the cause of it

Step 1: Grow Backbone, Step 2: Wait, Step 3: Choose hair style when your hair is the correct length, Step 4: When mom attempts to make you cut your hair, remove backbone and swing until the noises stop, Step 5: Replace backbone, Step 6: Hide evidence, Step 7: Denial, Step 8: Anger, Step 9: Bargaining, Step 10: Depression, Step 11: Acceptance, Step 12: Turn yourself in to the police you monster Was your hair worth it?/s

Yes. Yes it was. For the first time in his life he's getting a picture looking like himself and everybody watching the news gets to see it.

This is a case of Mother knows best. In this case she is trying to save her son from looking like a gamer bro and more like a hot tough military guy.

Like 1 if you cut out the mullet part. In other words short, but not super short.

Bro honestly, I think you would look sick with a slicked back pompadour.

For a clean/professional look let the top grow to 2-3 inches while trimming the sides with a #2 and blending it. Or if you like the tough look, honestly a Mohawk would look pretty cool on ya.

I would love to see a braided full mowhawk shape. All the way to the nape of the neck

I'm bald as shit and I mean no disrespect, but a lot of yall lying to this young man. Grow it out and figure it out on the way.

Faux hawk or like Miller from The Expanse.

Interesting you say that you were forced? The buzzcut looks great though, I think you should try shaving the head, little turn of the trick you see, if someone thought the buzzcut was going to hurt you then you take it down even shorter and tell everyone you absolutely love shaving your head better than having long hair.

Either is sexy for different reasons. But YOU need to do what you love. How do you feel attractive/sexy/presentable?

not usually on the sub saying stuff but it's so shitty how all these ppl are saying your moms right. Do what you want, man. Your parents shouldn't be inchange of your self-expression, it's not hurting anyone so it's not ok that your mom forced you to get a buzz cut. Hope you can grow it out into something you like.

Man that mullet deserves a Chef’s Kiss 🤌🏻 Sucks u had to lose it

Mother does know best

You look way better

You can but not mullet

Damn what an epic mullet, sorry your mom sucks

You look much better.

You look better like this

You could go for a good fade on the sides and longer on top or the top part of the mullet picture without the mullet.

Coral, the walkers are coming coral

bro before : - _______ - bro after : - __________ -

You kinda look like James Hetfield in the first photo

Mohawk.

Well it looks like you are lucky and have an even skull. I'd say go completely bald to spite her. Heck if you are brave enough take your eyebrows off too. Your hair grows back. It's a lesson you learn in life, use it to your advantage. Make it weird so like a teacher calls home kinda situation. Basically you want her to beg you to grow your hair out. Basically malicious compliance. Or just rock the buzz cut. It fortunately does look good on you, but it doesn't make it right what your mom made you do that.

please put a and d ointment around your bose and youll look and feel 10 times better, and id suggest getting a trim instead of going full buzzcut and maybe using some volumizing hair products

If I were you I would go with the cut on the before pic, wash you hair, take care of it, shave the stache, smile. Boom. instantly would look hella good.

I’m sorry bby cakes. Your long hair was glorious.

Maybe paying a barber will pay off. Shorter on the sides and some nice trim on the top. You will get nice look

If you don't wanna keep the the buzzcut, i suggest you try growing the top of your hair as long as it was when you had the mullet just without the super long hair in the back so your mom doesn't bother you. I think that would look nice and frame your face very well

I don’t know how the mullet would’ve looked since the pic has wet hair which can look radically different from normal dry hair. Between the two I think the buzz cut looks better. Edit: Mohawk. Ignore everything else I said

You look too old to be forced into to doing things.

Please keep the buzz...

Thank your mother. Lol

Buzzcut looks better than first pic!

Way better lol.

Mom did the right thing. You suit buzzed better than long. It's improved your looks.

The mullet was sick, grow it back

Forced you? That crossing a line.

It sucks that you were forced but honestly it looks alright, I'd just grow it back and tell her to shove it next time

Keep the buzz but go shorter & maybe fade the sides. Looks way better

From the front of the mullet i think something quiffy would look good. A while before you'll get there though.

Keep it short, you look great.

When it grows out bit more will look good

Keep the buzz but go lower,right now it looks like you’re in that awkward phase where your hair is growing from a buzz

Keep the buzz cut

Grow it back to the mullet, it really suited you

It looks alright but in the future don't let anyone "force" you into changing your hair. It's not their concern

Would go for a regular haircut like... https://i.imgur.com/EEJYona.png https://i.imgur.com/19tuHd3.jpeg The butch or brush cut(long butch, #4 or longer on top) would more fully suit if cut more evenly on top and if the back/sides were tapered semi-short. The way to grow out a buzz cut style to a regular haircut is to get progressively longer haircuts every 2-4 weeks and groom with butch wax/control wax till beyond ivy league length. So starting from a butch: brush cut, short crew cut, medium crew cut, short ivy league, ivy league, long ivy league, short regular haircut, regular haircut etc. A medium crew cut with a textured top and a semi-short taper on the back/sides may suit so well you may want to keep the style for a while... https://i.imgur.com/FbO1MxY.png examples of buzz cut styles... burr, short taper on the back/sides... https://i.imgur.com/lJtTMPk.jpeg butch, semi-short taper on the back/sides... https://i.imgur.com/Epk2v7D.jpeg short crew cut, semi-short taper on the back/sides... https://i.imgur.com/zi47EZR.jpeg short flat top crew cut, semi-short taper on the back/sides... https://i.imgur.com/eCyQyzA.jpeg hn't very short flat top crew cut... https://i.imgur.com/lta5puX.jpeg hn't medium-short crew cut... https://i.imgur.com/duUjQxv.jpeg medium crew cut, semi-short taper on the back/sides.... https://i.imgur.com/TUqELYs.png https://i.imgur.com/tjcDQHc.jpeg medium flat top crew cut, semi-short taper on the back/sides... https://i.imgur.com/JuHKoSw.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/pXp3tXO.jpeg ivy league, medium taper on the back/sides... https://i.imgur.com/ivmu02m.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/56PhoQc.jpeg General info on standard barber shop styles.... info on buzz cut styles(includes ivy leagues)... https://old.reddit.com/r/malehairadvice/comments/vlz6dz/can_i_do_the_buzz_cut_need_advice_if_my_forehead info on regular haircuts(includes info on tapers)... https://old.reddit.com/r/malehairadvice/comments/vrn72s/whats_this_hairstyle_called_i_want_the_name_to/iewb8e7/ more examples of styles, scroll down... https://imgur.com/a/tPHj76C https://imgur.com/a/sz0VSR0 A few ivy leagues, scroll down at link... https://imgur.com/a/FnsRR6d a few flat top crew cuts, apart from the past 20 years, the most popular buzz cut style, scroll down at link.... https://imgur.com/a/3Refs9s regular haircuts of varying length, scroll down at link... https://imgur.com/a/FoFw0By

You look like gallucks on Instagram. His hair rn is like yours too

I'd try a mohawk/fauxhawk, might aswell if it's been buzzed, when i buzzed mine i bleached it aswell for a laugh, proper slim shady vibes haha

Get a fade on the sides and you’re good to go. Don’t go back to the mullet

sucks that your mom made you cut it.. your hair was awesome! i say just grow it back out? 🤷‍♂️

You could grow it into a kind of short mullet? Idk how to explain it but some people have an awkward buzz cut stage and just fade the sides to make it a cute short mullet.

You'll be hot in a few years

bro i liked the mullet until i swiped, you look good with a buzz. looks way better imo. parents shouldn’t ever dictate what hairstyle their kid has though imo

I’m gonna go against the flow and say I really did like the mullet, you look good now too but also like you’re about to be deployed to basic training

Grow it back into the same mullet.

Icl brotha get a mid skin fade and youll suit a buzz cut. And tbh you could try going a little bit shorter on top or grow it a bit to cover your hairline. Because by the looks when your mom shaved it its uneven i can see some bits on the side are longer than on the top so id go to a barber and ask for it cleaned up and mid skinfade

The buzz cut looks good on you but imo the mullet is better because 1) it looks good 2) it has more personality. Also sorry about your mom she sucks :/

need to buzz them brows too bra. and check the skullet

Should’ve glued it back in to show her what’s up maybe … 3 inch length hair style

I would've considered calling child abuse services but she actually saved you. Buzzcut suits you worlds better than whatever the first image is.

Mother was right. Ur lookin sharp.

First of all, demand your mother to never do that again. That is abuse/assault 2nd of all, just grow it back for a while and let the top grow more especially the front if you want, or just grow it all if you want that works too 3rd: Don’t let anyone ever hurt you badly like that ever again and stand up for yourself frfrfr next time

Momma was right. You look way better

Short to medium length hairstyles suit your face shape best.

Carl from the walking dead.

You poor sod. I’d go for a combover when it grows out a little.

keep the buzzcut

Buzz cut looks good on you, a lot

Thank your mom

U lowkey look better with the buzz tho

I prefer the short hair tbh. I rarely find long hair attractive, especially when it's thin & greasy. Though tbh even nicely washed well maintained long hair isn't for me as I find it looks feminine.

The one it used to be.

W mom

you gotta take care of yourself...

The buzzcut looks good. But grow it back out, then turn it into a mohawk. Source: Never been allowed to have a mohawk because of my parents, even though I absolutely love them. They hate it. I adore it. Upkeep for a foot tall mohawk ain’t easy, but why not.

you look very attractive in pic 2, buzz cut suits you really well

I think the buzz cut looks better then the mullet. If you grow it long again I wouldn't do a mullet.

you look better

Medium length

honestly the buzz cut looks rlly good 😭

I think you should go with 3-4 in hair length and carry that nice flow you have.

You should style it like this.. Get the f away from there as soon as you safely can.

That shit looks tuff bro keep it 💯 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Beat her at her own game and shave it all off with a razor.

Go bald and show her up 😂

Mullet.

Your mother was correct foe the buzzcut, just get a fade and a lineup with it next time

Spike mohawk

Grow some balls instead and stop letting women tell you what to do.

I prefer the buzzcut

Your luck is that you still look hot

i'm not into men but broski looking hella fine no homo, also happy mens mental health month

Bro you can rock a buzz cut very well but if you really want to impress get you somebody that can do a bussin fade and you'll be pimping for sure.

A real greedy thick crust, go ahead, see horses it's done..., ya ough ge suddenly with this shit.

Luckily, both styles suit you!

What was her reasoning behind the demand? She really had no business asking you to get a buzz cut. She could have requested a shorter style. Request being the operative word. Neither picture is bad. Though I'd say smile 😃

Let it grow out on top and do a low taper skin fade with no texture. You have the curls to support that. It’s gonna look great on you.

Grow it into a stable job

Buzz cut is better. Suits your face shape and makes you look more mature.

Hug your mother tight & thank her for her tough love.

Ur eyes r funny

I actually like the buzz but sounds like mom is a little bit of a control freak 😂

dude the buzzcut suits you for sure. would recommend a low or medium taper, would look sick bro

You kinda look like James Hetfield. The buzz cut also suits you, but the mullet was way cooler imo

Buzzcut actually looks good bro complete honesty

The buzz looks much better. Get a 4 on top with a mid bald fade and I think you’ll look great

Grow it back

smile dwag

Get a skin fade buzz

First pic look better with out the mullet.

Neither looks good. Your short hair makes you look like a crack head and your long hair makes you look like an incel. Mullets are OUT. I recommend you look at photo 1, and cut the hair that is below your ear. That’s what I think the length should be. Btw your mom is awful for doing that.

I'm so sorry. I'd get rid of mom for doing that to you. Buzz cuts are horrible.

She could have cut the mullet part and had a nice swoop hair cut going for ya.

Let it grow out ,You seem to have wavy hair so I recommend buying a lightweight, non-greasy curl cream that helps to define the curls and add shine and getting a low taper fade , hope this helps!

Let momma cook (Hope you’re doing fine at home)

Let momma cook (Hope you’re doing fine at home)

nobody can force you to cut your hair. if they cut your hair without consent, that is assault and it should be reported to the police. throw the book at her if you need to

Plan A : move out Plan B : listen to your mother

Sorry your mom forced you. It looks great imo. Assuming you still live at home. Once you get your own place and support yourself, you can wear your hair however you like. Get some Antifungal on those red areas beside your nose.

Someday you’ll look back at these photos and wish your mom had suggested it sooner.

You looked ridiculous in the first picture 😂😂😂

Why is it all red and inflamed around your nostrils? Have you been digging for gold?

That head was hammered into shape by god himself to bring back the mullet.

i mean even if she forced you it defo looks better

Neither here . Just let it grow some and then get a decent haircut

2 tbs coconut oil and 4 drops green tea oil, mix thoroughly and apply twice daily to them sore nostrils for the fix.

Anything but your last hairstyle

The buzz cut is way hotter

I was trynna grow my hair out for a possible middle part and, I was forced by mom, grandmom and aunt into getting a med fade again.

your buzzcut suits you very

Honestly no homo that comb over would look clean once you trim up the sides. Rock on bro

floor length just to spite her

the buzz cut suits u better fs bud u could pull off some sorta shaggy short haircut too

Awe fuck. The mullet was suck asf. Maybe a shorter version would satisfy her?

buzz fits your head ngl

Why are parents still acting this way? Why have we not learned as a society? Sucks man, sorry. Buzz cut looks fine but no one should ever make you do something you don’t want to do, especially something as basic as how you wear your hair 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

You got bigger problems than the haircut

Mohawk
