    Posted: 28 May 2008 at 11:23pm
I desperatly need a hair cut so I am going to get one tomorrow.

I really like the look of these and I am probaby going to get it done anyways eventually to cut down on my number of hair cuts on basic officer training.

I'm just not sure if I'd look good with it.

Anyone get their hair cut like this? (forum Marines obviously)

If I go to the local haircutters, are they going to understand what I mean by high and tight?

What would be a good way to judge if this is a good haircut for me?

Step 1:  Get the haircut.

Step 2:  See if it looks good.

 

 

 

*** SPOILER ALERT ***

 

 

 

 

High and tight looks good on nobody.

I dont think it can be a good haircut for you, considering it's not a good haircut.

I think any barber would understand what you meant by "high and tight", but agreed, that it generally not a good look.

Then maybe I am talking about a close but different thing than a high and tight.

This would be one that is almost shaved down on the sides (still pretty short on sides but definately not bald)

Then comes up to longer hair up top.


It's pretty popular amoung officers at my cadet squadron.


I couldn't find any pictures... too vague?

How on earth does this look remotely decent?


Its the kind of haircut that makes you think it was done as a joke when someone passed out drunk.

They don't look half bad if you get wider hair up top and not a thin strip like in that picture.

Just get the "high and tight" and quit your whining, j/k. It's a great haircut. I practically wore that one for nine years, that and a flat-top. Cheers!

Not even close.

However, technically a mohawk follows my discription.

Yep.  Just like mullets.  The folks who have them are convinced that they are teh awesum haircut, and everybody else thinks they look retarded and are amused.

Win-win, really.
