What have I done?!?!?

I got a [forced] haircut yesterday... I'm about to drive myself insane!!!!!

After 4 years of faithfully growing my healthy hair, yesterday, by 'orders' of my father, who really trolled me, I had to say goodbye to a huge (literally, lol) part of me :(

To start, my parents never approved of my long hair, which I totally understand, them being very Religious. I mean, I understand them, if I was a very religious person (fanatic, maybe) I'd hate to look at my son who has longer hair than most women in the family, and is always wearing Metal band t-shirts.

They, but specially dad, have been trying to get me to cut my hair for the last 4 years, and I've had passed on great offers (trips with them, cash money, good job offers, etc...) just to stay loyal to that one thing (well, one of the few) that I had never given up on.

Sooooooooo how did he troll me?
Well, as a some of you know, I'm taking a real nice European Vacation this summer, and he agreed to pay for it... Score!
I'm leaving tomorrow, and yesterday he came to me, serious, and told me that if I didn't get a haircut, I wouldn't be going to Europe, plus I'd have to reimburse all the money he had put into it, which goes without saying, was a LOT!

I know it's just hair, and it'll grow back, but still, I made a lot of effort to keep it that long. And it was something special, I'm just not me right now :(

Oh and my Ex-Gf and I just officially broke up... :( 5 years worth of great memories is going to take a while and lots of effort to forget.

Sorry for the vent :oops:

On a 'funny' note, I feel like I've got the Hetfield Syndrome... Lol


Sorry for any grammatical errors, I'm on the phone (I never use auto-correct), plus I'm mad as hell.

So long hair on Jesus is fine, but not on their son? :confused:

I had my long hair cut when I got to boot camp...it was the least of my worries at the time...

LOL good point! Jesus did have long hair...

AKedit: Beaten to the "Jesus had long hair" theory.

Look on the bright side, there are short haircuts which go equally well with metal band shirts. I sport a mohawk most of the time. Completely shaved works too!

Exactly, I have told them that, but they don't care... Lol

I know I'm over-reacting, but hey, I'm like a woman when it comes to my hair... XD

I did consider sporting a shaved head, but I don't grow enough facial hair to compensate :/

I know how you feel. I had hair halfway down my back a couple years ago and I had to cut it for a job when we moved. Again, religion was to blame as the management was heavily swayed by religion. Complete crap if you ask me. I think your father blackmailing you like that says a lot about his character!

You don't have to be Kerry King to pull off a shaved head. Look at David Draiman, he rocks a chrome dome without any facial hair just fine. If anyone questions it, just raise your arm at a 45 degree angle with your hand flat. They won't question you then. ;)
