Poll: Are Ponytails Cool?

[One of Many]

As a dude rocking a ponytail (and muttonchops), I say go for it.

 

[Squilookle]

You absolutely 100% need to have a beard/awesome moustache to pull off a ponytail. I don't care who you are or how popular you are or how awesome you are. If you are a male, with a ponytail, you must have facial hair, otherwise it is proven fact that you look like a prick.

This, definitely, and even then the probablility of not pulling the ponytail off right is still high.

Also ponytails don't really have a 'fight the system' feel to them- you're tying your hair up! restricting and controlling it! You want 'fight the system' then you let it hang loose. Sure hippies do too, but as long as you look focused (and not stoned) people will get the right vibe off you.

I ware a ponytail everyday because;

1) I find short hair generic and boring
2) My hair at mid length is a ridicules afro
3) Long hair that isn't tied back gets in my face and is itchy

It all comes down to your own hair type and I ware one for practical reasons rather than ascetic, although my hair is a pretty ridiculous out. For most hair it looks better at a medium length and down.

Of course they aren't; why would you even ask that question bro

 

[HerrBobo]

No. They are not cool. Unless you're in a rock band, even then..... dodgy.

 

[Aethren]

If you have the hair to pull it off, go for it. Looks better on guys than any girl could hope to pull off, as long as they have good hair to begin with.

I chose anything in connection with ponies right now is considered uncool. Escapist your fine, just don't get any more PONYIER.

Telling you a pony tail is not cool, then telling you to get a hair cut is just not liking long hair.

I have long hair, no hair cuts since I left the navy in 07, and ya know. It's me, people don't like it they can screw off. I keep it clean, neat, and know what...

I prefer not to use reasons left over from the great depression to be a drone with short hair. cause people want to be different but only if you look like everyone else.

 

[Magicman10893]

No, they aren't cool, but they are however, very functional. I wear my hair in a ponytail only for practicality sake and say "fuck what everyone else thinks." Then again my hair makes me look like a woman from the back unless it's in a ponytail because then you can see my awesome side burns and beard.

one of my best guy friends decided that he wanted to help out so he grew his hair out so he could donate it which I am all for. but for the longest time, it was horrible. He also made me a bit sad that his hair was longer and nicer than mine and all he did was wash it.
but once he cut the section and got his hair cut short DAMN IS HE A SEXY *****!!!
I usually prefer dudes without a ponytail but hey to each their own.

many people can not pull it off but if you can AWESOME! but don't also grow a moustache. it just makes anyone look like a paedophile.

I used to have shoulder length hair, and it was 50-50 too. After I got a job, the "hygiene guidelines" said that I had to get my hair cut. All of my friends who were girls said it looked so much better, and my guy friends could care less, cause we're guys.
After all of that...I really missed my long hair. I don't give a shit if you like my hair or not, I want me to like my hair! So moral of the story, fuck everyone else, if you think your hair has a "fight the system" kind of attitude, then you go fight that system, and you kick it's ass with the god given hair that you love!

Spoiler: Me while giving this speech

i like you! you know what? just because you said that i'm going to completely ignore what everyone else on this thread is saying and pretend that they're all complimenting me! no, i'm not being sarcastic, i really am!

And I love you, because you're just going to keep on keeping on with what you've got.

Only if you're a big fat guy who can paint models really well or an awesome bass player.

[Haydyn]

As long as it is straight enough.

In all matters of coolness refer to the following:

If you have the appropriate face, they're awesome.

 

[teebeeohh]

if my hair is in a ponytail it's a dead giveaway i just did some sort of physical work/sports. some people can pull it of on a daily bases but whenever i do it my head looks like i got jumped by an ewok.

**ATTENTION**

Ponytails are classic woman repellent.

Please do not attempt.

This has been a Public Service Announcement.

 

[pataldo]

Long hair is cool, Ponytails are not.

 

[pigmypython]

The few guys I know that have ponytails don't look good with them. I really don't like ponytails on guys (sorry)...it just gives me creep vibes.
