I Need New Hair!

Sunday, January 10, 2010 Sunday, January 10, 2010





It’s true, apparently. I have been informed by a certain someone whose name begins with H, that my beloved hairstyle, which has served me extremely well for almost two entire years, is now catastrophically out of style and technically obsolete.

The solution seems obvious: just go and buy some new hair. There’s plenty of it.

But not exactly. The fashion selections for men are vastly less diverse than for female avatars. I recall the trouble it took to find my beloved hair so long ago, and don’t relish the possibility of chasing around through who knows how many stores to find the “ideal” replacement hair. Yes, I know some people live to shop, but I just don’t have the time to do it properly. Even the exceedingly few stores that stock men’s hair typically hide it among forty million female products, making men's shopping experience difficult and frustrating.

And that brings us to the point of this post. I’m asking readers for suggestions. Suggestions for the right stores to find men’s hair - or even actual product recommendations. I’d like to find a product that’s highly realistic, dark colored and not very long. And it must have that certain “something” that makes it fit my avatar persona.

So dear readers, tell me where I should go to shop and what I should wear?

I suggest Uncleweb Studio. (And don't forget to pick up the freebie behind the desk on the wall). He does women's and men's but more men's, really. I've been a fan for awhile.

Oh my, that sounds SO familiar! Some of my friends started to diss my beloved ETD hairstyle (2+ years old) a while ago as well. I got dragged through dozens of hair shops (some of which I never heard of before like Tiny Bird or Wicked Hacker) and collected countless demos which I was then coerced to wear to the amusements of my friends.

And in the end? I stayed with my beloved ETD for the time being :-)

Good places are by the way Truth and Zero Style. Also take a look at the short hairstyles for women - a lot of them are in fact unisex and can easily be worn by a guy. My ETD style is in fact a female style :-)

You look better without the hair, keep it cut short. And...if you ever find a military flat top hair cut for a man in white, please tell me.

Armin look for Bryce hair. I am not in world so cant give you the LM. Bryce specializes in Men's hair and you just might find something you like there.
