I Can't Braid My Hair As A Boy, Why? by tflow2(m): 2:42pm On Mar 14, 2006
Hello everyone, I have been wondering why don't we accept male who style or make their in some way in our community? Afterall we all use hair cream and soap, whats their function? to make the hair look good, then why can't I put on some hair style or apply some relaxer or some other stuff?

Actually, you can braid your hair. Please be warned that it's a time-consuming and potentially painful process that may not necesarily make you any more attractive than a clean cut and shave with a few curls.

YES OO. It'll make u omo-buruku, and you'll end up a garage boy. j/k

Anyways, do wat u want, when u r okay with it, it'll take a just a while till people start being okay with you for being okay with it.

You can braid your hair if you want to and if you are sure it suits you.There are guys who do it and look really cool and others you wonder if they have a mirror.Its not exactly accepted in the African society,but it depends on what you want.It is attributed to being irresponsible,but i suppose it needn't make you less responsible than guyz who cut their hair.So it depends on whether you give a damn about what people think or not.

shocked Really? How so? I disagree. Hair styles are a personal choice and since people don't look the same in regards to features or head shape, we need different styles to flatter different people. It's the same way with women. Some women look good w/ short hair, others with long only. Some with weaves, others with natural hair only. Some look drop dead gorgeous with their hair braided, some only like "aight".

@t-flow
Try your best to do what's best for you. Be an individual and know who you are no matter what others say. Peace. smiley It isn't easy. But you can achieve! I believe that. cheesy

Shebi, Iverson rocks the look real well, as for me i like em wella, whatever looks good on the guy is fine by me, low cut, shaved head, braids, dreads but NO NOs to weaves, thats the limit. If u think u'd look good with braided hair then go for it, after you can always change hair styles wink

I can't beleive sum1 said this. Sum girls actually find guys wit braided hair more attractive. I do!!!!!!!


U can do, whateva u want. Just make sure it's going to suit u! U myt be beta of without braids, u'll neva know. If u eventuall get it done, pls take care of it. Cos its looks awful on sum guys - like they've lost their map to hairdressers!!
Re: I Can't Braid My Hair As A Boy, Why? by cedarfresh(m): 5:45am On Jan 03, 2008
Joeblaze if braiding for a guy makes him look gay,i guess all the male fashonistas,sports celebs and movie buffs around would be caught on The Montreal gay pride professing their new found sexuality.For dick's sake,why must you sound obsolete?
Re: I Can't Braid My Hair As A Boy, Why? by prncss(f): 4:27pm On Jan 08, 2008

Re: I Can't Braid My Hair As A Boy, Why? by spoilt(f): 12:10am On Sep 25, 2009
last time I checked, you can do whatever you want to your hair.
Re: I Can't Braid My Hair As A Boy, Why? by Anabel(f): 1:48pm On Sep 30, 2009
no you can't. i can accept a guy keeping his hair but i can't take braiding, it totally out of it.
Re: I Can't Braid My Hair As A Boy, Why? by WhyAWhy(m): 11:54am On Dec 17, 2009
It's is true the last time I checked it was and is still a free world.

Men + Braiding = sad sooner or later : Men + Mascara, Men + female enlargement, Men + Wearing Undies [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font][/color]and a whole lot of stuffs would not be [color=#990000]SO BAD as we think. what is this world turning too?

Personally I hate to c braids on a man shocked embarassed

but again, this is a personal opinion and I know this is not enough to change a made-up mind cry
