I went to the barbers a while ago, asked for half off.
After having considerably more than half cut off, I now have this.
Worse, the scissor job wasn't very well done, so I've been having to trim it down where it proper bushes out for no reason myself, but I've only had to do this twice so far, and they were both superficial cuts aka under 2cm.
One thing that I have worked out (and it may be the only one, apart from the fact that you always dress from the shoes up) is that you have to have a decent barber.
Keep trying OP. Find a fellow who gives good banter as well as trim. Ni desperandum - it'll grow back.
That's your run-of-the-mill side parting. Not particularly neat, but then Moore had quite wavy hair.
And I feel your pain OP. I'm quite the /poof/ when it comes to hair and have cursed over some bad cuts. But it can only get better, as it were. A couple of weeks and you'll likely be in a much better position to style it.
Until then, I guess it's a case of trying something new with the limited hair length. Try squiffying it up (like so in the picture). Failing that, wax and mess the shit out of it until you find a shape you can live with for a while.
>>1642 Could you be so kind as to give me a estimated price for the boater on the left?
Also do you know if that pattern/colour scheme has a specific name?
>>1647 I paid £125 for mine but the prices vary by shop. It's not specially made or anything, it's just an off-the-shelf one that I bought as my first boating blazer.
You can find it, and similar ones, on plenty of online clothes shops, or try googling Madcap coating blazer (Madcap England being the maker).
It has little gold pinstripes in between the red and the navy blue that are barely visible in that picture, I never knew this until I'd bought it. Also the colours aren't solid, they're in diagonal lines over a navy blue material, like in part A of my picture. I was disappointed by this too.
Part B partially related, it's the pattern of the new one I've ordered. Should be here tomorrow.
My boating blazer from Sherry's came today.
To anyone looking to buy a suit or blazer in the future, do not use Sherry's.
It had sleeves that were at least 2 inches too long and could have fit both my arms in. The torso of the jacket was sufficiently tight but was far too long again, and the neck was far too stiff and kept raising upwards.
The blazer didn't even have any vents on it, so at the bottom it was just like one solid piece, making it horribly uncomfy and basically making me look like a stripy rectangle if viewed from behind.
A horrible garment, and not at all what I expected of a Carnaby Street shop.
Boycott Sherry's, I say.
