Do a lot of coke and don't wash your hair.

Take a picture of your desired look in with you to your stylist. Go to a true hair salon, where they'll have more experience with long hair than a barber. Don't do supercuts/Fantastic Sams for this one. Some of that look comes from having those darker highlights. The dirty hair look can be achieved with various hair products. Nirvana was a pretty decent hard rock band, certainly better than those Fallout Boy noodniks we have today.

Aside from the drug comment, he is right. Cobain was usually really bad about washing his hair. If you dont want to go this somewhat smelly route, I would look into hair oils with some weight to them. Apply right after your shower and do not brush your hair out. Let it fall and dry as it is.

This is all correct. Cobain hated washing his hair so much that Courtney Love washed a lock of it after he died.

There are oils you can use to get that stringy look. I had long hair for a while, and I remember wanting that look for a Halloween costume one year. IIRC I used some VO5 oil from Target, and it worked.

To the OP, the problem with Cobain's hair is that you have a couple of options to get his look - either don't wash your hair or use product like the one I mentioned. The issue is that both leave your hair pretty nasty. When I used the VO5 stuff for my costume I remember thinking my hair felt really gross, and I washed it out as soon as the night was over. You're basically going to end up the stereotypical long-haired dude with the nasty hair. Cobain could get away with it because he was a rock star, but an average Joe probably wouldn't be so lucky.

win.

and i guess it might be a bad idea for me to go that route, with all the product and such.

So i got prom in a week and a half. I have to cut the hair by then. Im thinkin they should do the thing with the razor that makes it thinner? and off some length of course.

First you need to grow lot of hairs and it depends on your head hair growth ... i would say it may take you 3 to 4 month to grow long hairs .. go to salon and ask stylist to give you hair style book this design would be in their style book if not then print it out and take it to him and just tell him to make your style the exact way.

Seriously, do you think Cobain gave a flyin' fuck about how his hair looked. It's about the attitude, not the mambsy pansy 'WHICH HAIR OIL SHOULD I USE' crap.
Your hair cut is fine just stop your fussin and let it be.

I've always been totally low maintenance on the hair front. Short.. long, whatever just keep my head away from the magic potions and its all good. And I tell you a secret...

CHICKS DIG THE I COULDN'T CARE LESS BS., THEY MISTAKE IT FOR CONFIDENCE EVERY TIME
