To your question,my opinion is yes and no.
-Yes,the kinda hair one keeps defines him to an extent,your preferences,your style,your looks all come together to make up who you are. Choosing a particular hairstyle may not just be because you like it on someone or you like how it looks on you,it may go a long way in saying how you want to be addressed and who you want to be seen as and as a matter of fact what you what to achieve with that particular look,it then goes to say the kinda person you are because all these elements add up to a bigger picture,your personality. It's influenced by choice and so largely goes to say who u want to be seen as.
-No,you may just settle for a particular look for some circumstances you inevitably can't control,perhaps you're too busy to go to a salon often or you dnt even have the cash to keep trimming as often as u shd(trust me ppl can be dat broke) then the hair just grows 'n u decide to leave it full. It could be you don't have the resources to maintain dreads but u can atleast keep a low-cut. These now become the circumstances behind one's look and not necessarily out of choice.
Thus,considering we live in a society where people are judged by their looks and trivial actions by the youth is very well blown out of proportion by a majority of the older generation,whatever kind of look you choose to wear that is contrary to ordinary,flat and well other synonyms of such,you 'd be considered irresponsible and a willing tool of the 'bad guy' satan. Take for example my boyfriend,a very responsible promising young man,he's been keeping full hair for as long as 15years now... He studied in Ghana,he comes back and decides to join the church choir,and the lady in charge says he has to go cut his hair and come back to show his level of seriousness... Oh well,'he never got serious'. So you see. I love nice hair,any look dats good on someone rocks for me wink

lots of unnecessary things our society frowns at.

I have always being on lowcut, kinda makes me look professional in my job. Recently started keeping "Low afro"....still experimenting with it tho.
Re: Does The Kind Of Hairstyle You Keep Define Who You Are? by Mekzmoney(m): 3:21pm On Nov 12, 2014
In this contry 9ja, ur hair defines who u are. Keeping ur hair in 9ja makes u luk irresponsible. For instance ur a graduate n ur lukin 4job in dis country, guys wen ur in 4 interview, ur hair alone will deprive u d job because of dia impression 2wards u. I keep hair during my school days but I had to go on low cut because of d interview n all dat. So I suggest dat we hav our hair properly cut unless ur still a student, artist or an actor.... Dats ma suggestion ooo.

Diffdeef:
Let me cut this thread in 2,the first one should be what my subject is which is "does the kind of hairstyle you keep define who you are? Then the second should be the best hairstyle a guy should stick to? They're quite related so the first one first...Let's begin*

I'm a guy,so I'm focused more on men's hairstyle,people can really put a niggur in a state of confusion,they think the kind of hairstyle an individual rocks defines who he is,attitude/behavior/upbringing/ etc...like most people in our society think a guy that goes on lowcut automatically becomes gentle and things of sort?? Emm and a niggur that goes on punk,afro-punk,mohawk..eem..dada etc is some kind of indecent lousy tout,Lol or some kind of bad niggur who spends most of his time on trivial things?? U know what I mean...earthly things? One of my pal that rocks this grown axx punk hair told me how people ask him if he's a musician or something related? lemme not type much...I just don't fink the kinda hair u rock got anything to do wif u,I know some guys on rugged-type hair buh are cool af...gentle and well behaved,you can only know someone better by being close to the person at least for quite a while not by mere sighting of someone's hair,smh ppl dumb. Emm no 2.

The best hairstyle a guy should stick to?? To you reading this,what's yo best? Mehnn for years I don't know the kinda hair I should stick to,most peeps say lowcut is the best,in a way they think it's more mature than others,buh lowcut no fit me that much!! Keeping my hair grown does,like a mini afro buh yet lots of peeps,my fam too bash me ehh...jumping down my throat...like niggur go get your hair cut!! Altho they know they can't make me,but why do they make it seem like a terrible thing? No be wetin fit me?? That's all...now yall comment...I even heard some gurls say they like guys on lowcut and some also said they like guys wif grown hair and other stylish hairstyle. Confused af smh.

we are africans we don't use*niggur* i swear you can write without that word

Lemme say this, for me its a yes and no... Yes for the fact that people will and continue to assume a lot about you just by the kinda hairstyle you rock.I must add this, some niggars tends to portray a kinda lifestyle based on what they rock.

Now to my No, we are who we are regardless of the kinda hairstyle we rock, but sometimes your kinda hairstyle often downgrades or elevates our swag or image.

Just as ur dressing doesn't define you, your hair doesn't either,
It's just the way people think at times an Idealogy whatever you call it,
people will always jump to conclusions about appearances and probably remind you of the addage
"u are addressed the way u dress"

So if you don't want to be addressed or be seen in some way, change the look*

but if u don't care what people think, damn their opinions and look the way u want .
