Its been a long time coming. I have not cut my hair for 3 years now and im starting to get a little tired of it sometimes(hair in face,not being able to see face,looking not maintained). I do like having it but I find myself thinking I would look better and more clean cut if I cut my hair. At times I look like a skater degen and I feel like im judged off my appearance from first sight with women and stuff. Even though I think im a good looking guy I think my appearance looks bad(clothes,hair style,etc) Majority of the time i wear my hair back using a hat. I do wear my hair in a ponytail when I go out though. I either have to resort to wearing it in a ponytail at all times and stop wearing the backwards hat because it makes me look like an immature skater degen and not maintained OR cut my hair and go back to clean cut woody. Some input from everyone would be nice. Thanks.

told you what i think in mumble ;)

I've had long hair until the day before yesterday. It was nice and you can do many styles with long hair, but the maintenance and annoyance of hair in face etc made me cut it again. Feels good man.

chop it off

Definitely cut it. You will look so much more fresh with short hair. It's true that people will make assumptions about your appearance based on how long your hair is; especially as a man.
I believe that you will get a lot of positive feedback after doing it. Ultimately do what you think is right.

Well cutting it is not a big deal I guess since you can always grow it back again.

I voted yes , but if you do you should go to a different style you didn't have before. Don't cut it and go back to the young woody is what I'm saying. Try something completely new.

If the reason to cut it is because it's bothering you a lot, comfort-wise, then sure, cut it.
But if you're getting self-conscious if people (...girls) are liking it or not, finding it pretty or not, then give it more thought. Since you've been letting it grow for 3 years, my guess is that you were enjoying it. And keep in mind that your hair genetics is good to do this (trust me, I went down this road and only got a puffy weird shit that grew to the sides mostly). Maybe the lack of comfort is just something temporary, that you only started getting bothered a month ago or so.
About appearance, the most important thing BY FAR is to be clean. Like, take good showers, put some deodorant etc etc etc, then, whether your hair is long or not becomes close to irrelevant. You can make it work with you're the one enjoying it. This thing about people judging you harshly by having long hair is mostly in your head.
Voted "no", because this does sound like peer pressure to me.

Like Spec was saying, if it'd be more comfortable for you if you had it chopped short, do it. If you're only wanting to cut it to try and attract women or be judged less or something, I think that's a bit of a silly reason, really. From experience, you can still look, and be classy with long hair.

Being a dude and having long hair is no different than a female having short hair, big whoop. People who make general assumptions about the hygiene or character of a man with long hair are close-minded, moronic, bigoted fools anyway, who most likely judge everyone they see for any reason they can. So it's really no different. Though, this IS an opinion topic, I'll put my 2 cents in, of course, though I think what you say Lark, is kind of silly, tbh.
Anyways, go for the clean cut look if you want, Woody, if that'll make it more comfortable day-to-day and get the results you're hoping for. Sometimes change is good! Growing it back out if you change your mind is always the obvious option as well.

wait for another year and then cut it.

It's not things like "how long is my hair?" It's how you rock it. Yes, some women will judge. Just get ripped and rich and they no longer will. In fact, they'll love it. Women ADORE Harry Styles' hair. Cutting your hair is a quick fix to a deeper problem that will only serve as a temporary bandaid, not fix your issues with confidence and self appreciation. Mind you, cutting your hair definitely is better if you're out looking for a white collar job, but I don't think you are right now, so don't let that be a factor.

After cutting your hair you realize how much better it is and you cringe at pictures of yourself with long hair. Go short!

You honestly look 10x better with short hair.
