I think your best bet is to grow it long and bun it, or shave the sides and go exactly for what you already posted.

I think that Rathbone has the best top knot out there, and it wouldn't take very long to grow.

Did you even read the article? The bun has to be extremely tight and be worn constantly to cause hair loss. Such as the professional ballerina and black women who wear tight braids their whole life, which were both given as examples.

Use pic related to prevent your hair from breaking.
Take your hair and put it un the bond. (I'm notre native english so this part might be hard to explain)
Then do a 8 with the bond, pass the hair in the second circle. Hold tight and do another 8, put your hair in the second circle but not all the way, then let it like this.

what's the perfect length for a bun?

[Anonymous No.7828320]

This is a serious post. I am in no way /fa/ as my daily outfit consists of jeans, white ankle high socks, black jockey t-shirt from a six pack, and a flannel shirt, sweater or sweatshirt. The only reason I wear the outer layer is because I started wearing through the undershirts and did not want to buy more. I do have some decent looking shoes. And I don't look like shit.
My bangs are about 4.5 inches and already 2.5 longer than my hair has ever been before. It is beginning to piss me off but I want to get to a topknot just so I never have to get a haircut again. It is a pain and I refuse to wear a beanie in public. Should I give up (which I won't do, I have come this far) or should I go for it.
I am already outside of my comfort zone with this shit and the end product just seems weird. I am used to going to the barber's once a month and asking for a 1.5 on the sides and a 2 on top and getting the hell out of there 15 dollars poorer. How much maintenance does this take, because in my mind it is just a put it up in the morning, let it down at night, once a month pull it all back tight and take a half inch off out in the street.

I wish I could pull this shit off.
The only issue is that I have a fivehead and pulling back my fringe looks fucking awful. I usually keep some sort of fringe there to hide it.
So has this ever been pulled off with some loose hair in the front or does it just look laughably effeminate?

[Anonymous No.7828402]

>>7828364
That is just it. I know I have a jaw and face to pull it off, but my self confidence is so low that I can't see others finding me attractive. That is as good as I can put it into words. I have taken pride in how forgettable I can make myself in crowds and how quiet I can move around and shit. In my senior yearbook there was only the one photo of me. Even my friend who was a looser and didn't come to school half the year had more photos. The weird thing is I am proud of it. But now I figure it is time to actually get a girlfriend or some shit because I am 21 now and have kissed and shit, but never had a relationship with anyone else. Fuck, I haven't had a friend in over 3 years now. All I have done is workout, read and study and that is fine and all, but I felt lonely for the first time in my life 2 months ago and it actually did not feel too great.
I am not looking for validation, it is just nice to put it out there sometimes. I am trying to change, but it fucking slow going, I just hope I haven't fucked up my social skills too much by being so incredibly antisocial.

Alright, so I'm sporting a manbun+beard combination atm, but I'm really tempted to either cut my hair into something more standard or cut both my beard and my hair. Been on the verge of calling a hair saloon a few times now, though I'm a bit reluctant about it seeing as the beard is about 6 months old and the hair is about 2 years old, so there's a lot of time invested in both. Also a bit unsure with what kind of haircut to go with if I do get one. There's some image of a before/after shaving where the guy has medium-length hair that gives him a kind of rogueish look, I'd be thankful if someone could post it here

So, I thought I'd ask you guys. And this is what a full (if somewhat wild and perhaps not optimally trimmed) beard looks with a manbun, for the guys above who were aiming for one. I like how it gives me a bit of character while I can still dress in jeans+ordinary t-shirt, kind of gives you a "I'm a future man from the future" 80s-vibe, but idk
