Seriously? You see a girl with ruffled or rumpled hair and automatically think she doesn't take care of herself?

I mean, goddamn. I guess everybody must think I don't take care of myself cos my hair looks better artistically messed up.

Also, um, unkempt =/= dirty. wtf.

Well wait here. Are you talking about spending 5-10-15 minutes in the morning putting gel through your hair and teasing it so that it stands up in an artistically mussed way? Because dude, that's not unkempt. Unkempt is not putting anything in your hair and letting it get messed up, not artistically, but haphazardly by mother nature. And let me tell you, Mother nature is a poor hairdresser.

If you are just not bothering to brush your hair and think you look like those people with artistically mussed hair you see in posters -- well, news, you don't. Those people who you see on the streets with artistically mussed hair worked hard to get it that way with combs and hair product and special salon cuts. That's not just random matts made by not combing.

Actually, my hair looks good without needing product and all that shit. (And it's super short, so brushing it does exactly jack shit.) But you know, whatever.

Unkempt hair = pretty hot, on the right person. And no, I don't mean "spends time working on their hair and putting product in and getting exactly the right hair cut and so on". I mean "wake up and walk out the door" unkempt.

(Obviously that doesn't work for me when my hair's long, but when it's short like it is now, it totally works.)

I love when people assume no one's hair can possibly look good unless they spend half an hour working on it with product and umpteen hundred other things every morning. Shit, I don't have the time for that. Or the money, for that matter. Run a brush through it, done. If the wind messes it up later, WHO THE FUCK CARES, oh my god.

Thinking women don't care about their appearance if they don't fix their hair every time the wind blows, my fucking GOD.

YOu honestly think that going to get your hair cut every 6 weeks doesn't count as taking care of your hair? Sure if you have a pixie cut you aren't going to need to spend a lot of time combing it. I've got a pixie cut, too. However if you are walking out the door with half of it sticking up sideways looks good, you may be deluding yourself.

I don't get my hair cut every six weeks. No one I know gets their hair cut every six weeks. I'm lucky if I get my hair cut every six months, because I don't have the money for shit like that. Nice classism, what with your assuming everyone can afford the level of cosmetic perfection you think we should all aspire to. And by "we" I mean "women" because your shit is also sexist as hell.

omfg are you seriously picking a fight with her because she assumed you could afford a haircut?

Seriously. Odds are pretty good though that's not the sole factor here for somebody who doesn't care about their appearance. I focused on one point but there's probably 5 or 6 other things going on at the same time.

Artistically messed up looks very different then uncared for. More then anything though, we all project our attitudes, usually more then we realize. The person who thinks "I look good like this!" carries themselves differently then "I don't give a shit about this" tends to. That'll change response and perception as well.

I just can't get over the fact that you think a woman doesn't care about hygiene or her appearance if she doesn't fix her hair every time the wind blows. Jesus fuck.

I suppose if there's a run in her tights it means she's careless and horrible, too?

Oh, what if the clasp of her necklace slips down next to the charm? Totes lazy and doesn't care about appearance there.

Ugh. You really disgust me.

You seem to be acting like there is only two states of being -- every hair in place all the time, or never brushing your hair at all ever. Give the hyperbole a break and admit there is such a thing as basic hygiene.

wow. You've read some interesting things I never said here. Strawman me is quite a guy.

Yeah. I'll give you this: I don't think your real problem is your hair.
