The model you posted has two things you don't-- a large forehead and rediculously straight hair. This isn't too large a hurdle, as you can research methods to straighten your hair (even though it's probably not wise to enlarge your forehead). But, with the texture you already have, the results will look a bit odd. I would go for a messier version of that cut, or something that does not depend on every strand finding its right place.

Honestly.... No... that style can go 2 different ways... trendy metrosexual look (for which you'll need either some sort of facial hair or 5 o clock shadow or a mean looking eyes so you don't look like you're gay) / or childish emo. I have a similar hairstyle but with a more messy approach... I can do the straight look but I cant carry it all that well. The definite requirement in my view is that you have sort of mean eyes. this pics are not my best but .... here you go for an example...

PD: all but my gay friends say the haircut looks gay... but every woman I hang out with loves it...

I find the idea of affecting a face to be pretty funny. Like, are you going to orchestrate just as carefully what face you'll have for each emotion? I want to see you go back to those "mean eyes" after being genuinely surprised or shocked. While you're at it, upload the vid to youtube.

You see? Thats the exact same reaction I get from most of my mates... "You look gay" and well I'm not actually pulling a face... that was taken last week at 4 am in the office... long nights and all. The mean eyes comment is more something like this... the look does not work without eyebrows that slouch over your eye sockets...

for example... look at the eyes... they have this slouched thing going on. the model from the OP pic also has a slouched eyes kinda look. without the eyes you'll end up looking Zac Effronish.... Edit: its not mean eyes at all its more of a small eyes with a slouched appearance...

Can you guys suggest something like this that would suit me more then? With a pic. I like it because of the length, shorter hair but with longer bangs.

Have you ever tried slicking it back? you could get your hair relaxed and then slicked back... in a slightly messy way.

Slicking back? i dont think so lol.

So anyone else got any hairstyle ideas for me, need to do something with it fast.

For that style I posted, ya since the bangs are made up of small ammounts of stands and stuff would it be hard to get it to always look like that? and the wind would completely mess it up?

Never ever use this to justify anything in your life. If you got a faux hawk and guages earrings and stupid tribal tattoos all up and down your arm then girls would still "love it."

The problem isn't it moving it is supposed to move long hair is movement hair in a way. The dillema you will face is probably the hair starting to wave as the day goes by... an wavyness at the end of the "strands". The only way you can pull that is if you get a decent hair straightening iron OR (preferably) just having a stylist relax your hair... youre gonna need to go around every month or two to have it rerelazed if your hair is wavy and it will probably damage the hair in the long run.

Point taken... the difference though is that I can look presentable in the office, restaurants, meetings and such and still look clubbish while clubing, bar hopping and other casual stuffs.

Oh well, for what it's worth (from one noob to another), I think sp4rki looks very sexy and the hair style suits him dead on.

No, I'm not that way inclined. I'm thoroughly secure in my heteroflexibility...

Nah, I'm just jealous 'cause I'm limited to shaving my scalp every day ...
