If you've ever used an online looksmaxxing forum you've probably come across this hundreds of times. It's literally the most common piece of advice given to lost greycels since the inception of psl in 2008, and has driven many a gullible greycel to insanity.

"Just grow your hair out bro!"

A quick search of this very forum reveals countless such posts, either born out of ignorance or worse, malice.

"But why are these reputed Looksmax users with so many reputations giving such bad advice!???", you may ask ...


Well the answer isn't so straightforward .. first we must remember average forum user IQ is 78.

Many of these users are misled by famous "femalegaze" celebrities with long hair.

And are unable to separate his appeal from his "long hair" .. it's about as dumb as suggesting Zayn Malik is thirsted over for his nosering.


In reality, 99% males will look better with shorter hair - there is a reason the SS soldiers got their reputation as being the best looking military of all time.

The only men who will actually benefit from growing out their hair, are the ones blessed with top percentile dimorphism, primarily in their lower third.

And I mean literally TOP percentile, like 1% - where it gets so masculine and intimidating that the long hair are almost necessary to give these people some semblance of balance instead of looking like low empathy low iq cavemen.

So unless you belong to that bracket (you probably don't) -

keep your hair SHORT

Most normies think a haircut will = chad what do you expect

Some say 'Just take a shower bro' / "just shave bro'

Normies have no knowledge of facial aesthetics and that's why they all fail when hardmaxx.

Total bullshit and you know it.

Women want a mixture of both soft and hard features.

Ruggedly handsome men are the only type of men that look better with shorter hair. (Or just ruggedly average or kinda GL)

Ruggedly men make up how much of the population? 99%?

You're trying to light the gas of various users on here lmao.

You literally contradict yourself in the very next line -

Short hair is a masculine trait, being "rugged handsome" is also a masc trait - obviously the balance is the opposite of what you just said.

"Rugged handsome" guys are the ones who can pull off stuff like long hair, nose piercings, jewellery etc because it adds balance and "Softens" out their features.

Guys who aren't in the top percentile of facial dimorphism (mainly lower third) will rarely benefit from longer hair.

you will find most of these rules don't apply to Chad - brad pitt could wear a bonnet and one piece bikini and still steal your girl.

this is the problem with most looksmaxxing advice on this site - the tendency to use Chad as example when they operate on a completely different plane of logic.

I get your point, but you're seeing it too linearly.

The point is rugged, somewhat tall and broad shouldered looking men are better off maximising on their ruggedness and going full pelt with the ruggedness and going with the buzz-cuts and shit. But, they would equally draw a large portion of western girls, particularly young girls, if they had luscious thick hair and grew it out. The most classic caveman look is the caveman with long hair.

The same rule of thumb applies to those with softer faces. If you have soft facial features then you are better maximising on this and growing out your hair. But then gym maxing a little and getting a couple of tatts with piercing here and there.

The point is. If you are ruggedly handsome, you can style yourself as a pretty boy OR hyper masculine. But if you are not, you can only style yourself as pretty boy.

I know this sounds on the surface very absurd, but actually think about it.

How many men have bone-mass, wide-skulls, height and non recessed mandibles/chins?

Not many. Most guys have decent eye-areas, with decent cheekbones, rounded jaws and a very mid lower third.

This is the flaw in your reasoning imo - the reason the same rule doesn't apply to "softer" faces is the importance of dimorphism.

You're right when you say "rugged" faces can look good either way with shorter or longer hair because their faces cap their minimum dimorphism from being below a threshold.

However if you have a softer face, you can't really "max" it out by adding softer features because this is reducing dimorphism - something you already lack with a softer face.

That being said, if you have "pretty" features and a softer face, then you can nichemaxx by prettyboymaxxing, esp in todays climate where bc runs rampant. But most guys with "soft" features aren't also "pretty" (like chico, kpop guys etc) so it will not work for them - and they are better off trying to masculinize their appeal since that's their only way to ascend really.

However if you have a softer face, you can't really "max" it out by adding softer features because this is reducing dimorphism - something you already lack with a softer face.

You can if you are either tall with softer features or average height with softer features alongside a slight gym bod halo. (Wide shoulders, narrow waist)

The aim for a guy with soft features when looksmaxxing isn't to ACCENTUATE his positively feminine features.

So you can 'compliment' that softer face by creating the soft pretty boy look with 90s/00s boyband hair, as this now accentuates your positively feminine features. If you go with short hair, you are no-longer accentuating those positively feminine features as you are exposing the lack of dimorphism you have in your skull and bone-structure. It's common sense. The narrower the face and skull, the more longer hair will influence the viewer into being oblivious to your lack of sexual dimorphism. Thus making it the most optimum looksmax for a guy with just primarily pretty/cute features.

But of course you still need some dimorphism as a pretty boy and so if you don't have height, get wider shoulders with delt training (Unless your clavicles are completely fucked), hit your arm or upper chest/neck area with tatts and/or get a piercing. Don't fiddle with the hair to accentuate the very little dimorphism you have and sacrifice your positively feminine features as a trade-off. It's not worth it.

That being said, if you have "pretty" features and a softer face, then you can nichemaxx by prettyboymaxxing, esp in todays climate where bc runs rampant. But most guys with "soft" features aren't also "pretty" (like chico, kpop guys etc) so it will not work for them - and they are better off trying to masculinize their appeal since that's their only way to ascend really.

Exactly.

Also note the more and more Brad Pitt's bones have been decaying with age, the more he has gone to longer hair to minimise the damage?

When sexual dimorphism goes down, grow your hair out. < This is what the experts wanted for him.
 
It's common sense. The narrower the face and skull, the more longer hair will influence the viewer into being oblivious to your lack of sexual dimorphism.
just doesn't work this way bro.

if u have a shit lower third (narrow bigonial, high angle, weak chin etc), longer hair is going to "Accentuate" these features, as you correctly said before - ie it will make you look softer, more fem.
If you go with short hair, you are no-longer accentuating those positively feminine features as you are exposing the lack of dimorphism you have
this again is flawed thinking, although i understand why you think this.

you are only "exposing" your lack of dimorphism in pictures, to autists analyzing your face with a magnifying glass - they are now able to see how narrow your gonions are, low shit your lower jaw in general is, etc.

irl is completely different however, smaller hair will actually make your lower third look better than it is (because of perspective) - for example a weak chin will only look weaker if you have a shitton of hair on top and behind your head - having less hair behind your head will make the chin look less weak. similarly longer hair on the sides will make narrow gonions look narrower.

you need to realize irl people look at you as a whole, not as a sum of your individual features - so when you have short hair (a good haircut), it will only compliment your face adding "Sharpness" - which someone with soft features normally lacks.

there is a reason asian fuckboys in their peak years (2010-2020) always got the same skin fade.

show me one guy with soft features who looks better with long hair and i'll change my mind.

Long hair mogs in every scenario unless you’re a Chadlite minimum and you can rock any style and it’ll look good

Imo only ethnicity that can rock a buzz cut are blacks but even then we look way better with it grown out

no your opinion is dumb, not mine.

i don't need to post examples because my opinion is based on irl looks not 2d pictures - the difference between long hair and short irl is absolutely massive in terms of the latter adding tons of sharpness to your face.

long hair adds nothing concrete that can't also be added by medium length hair, which are far superior as the best of both worlds (if correctly styled)
