yeah, i could ask him if he had some lip gloss that i could borrow, i bet he'd dig it up in his shiny leather handbag mwahaha

yeah i would have to agree with you there, i think i would walk past hime with my back to the wall :):)

esek:

lol and why do you think they were all skinheads? Many polish guys have short hair or have no hair ..... just because they like that 'style'.

now now when did i say all Poles?? can you remind me please, maybe you could quote when i said that!!!!! I was pointing out that in Krakow compared to my local city, there were a lot more skinheads (Which stands for the style of haircut) than there are in my city.

Hope that sorts it out, i guess i will be labelled a 'Pole' basher for ever no matter what i say

I don't think long hair suites polish men because most poles have thin hair. I started growing out my hair a few years ago but had to cut it when i realized that it made me look feminine. Also, men with long hair (ie: "z ogonkiem" - pony tail) in poland were once labelled as being "typy" (suspicious looking, criminal-like - help with translation??), bums and not hard working. Maybe this is another reason why men keep their hair short.

But i agree with most of you, the shaved head look is disturbing especially when these guys dress in those euro tracksuits or like in the above picture.

Noimmigration: is he your type? :)

noimmigration: they all have shaved heads and wear bomber jackets and awful camoflouge trousers. It apparently the eastern european dress sense as the ukrain, slovenia, lithuiania et dress the same. Yes, because if you decide to pull such a ridiculous generalization out of your pocket it doesn't even matter whether you have ever seen a map of Europe before.

tornado2007: having been to Poland (Krakow) i have never seen so many skinheads in all my life. Really ? I was 2 weeks last year and didn't see even one.

The facial hair is more Polish than Brit! Loads of Poles have long chin fuzz. And Brits DO NOT have bad teeth! It's an American myth based around our inbred (and German) royal family.

just a bit curious ;)

If a bloke has to fanny about with fudge or gel then it's high maintenance...My preference is men who dont have to do such things...its just a preference though...

Grzegorz_:

I didn't for one minute think that they were, they were in fact just very cute boys with very very short hair :)))

Doggie, what does Malutka mean?

I think there is a difference between skinheadz and men with skinheads.
Skinheadz used to be a gang or semi neonazis, or some punks would completely shave their heads.
Poland has a much higher rate of receding hairlines than in Ireland. But Poles do not go grey until very old in life (I started going grey very young).
It is fashion here, isn't there something about if you shave your hair it grows back thicker and stronger? I thought that might be a reason too.

]honestly,i can't stand idiots who say that someone having short hair is a skin head.skinheads have died out a long time ago.there is just a few in poland now and they should be put into a national museum as a relict from early 90ties.there are more chavs now.these are more dangerous than skinheads cuz they have no ideaology to follow thus prefer violence and drugs to anything else.
long hair were popular in poland in 90ties but now not many people like them.short hair are nicer and don'rt reguire hours of geling.
all this english hairdos look like one just got up from a pool of urine and puke after a night out and used his hands to do something with hair.
i can't help it it looks so gay.i had shoulder long hair when i was 18 but it didn't suit me.since then it is always short.it may be cultural thing and i don't know why we should have the same styles

Del boy: I have no clue enlight me Sorry Del boy, I some times do not know if you are taking the mick or you do not understand. The T-shirt says "I'm not bald, this is a solar panel for a sex machine" The use of what was that T-shirt was me just thinking out load trying to remember what the T-shirt said.

Ohh no! That is not emo!

This is emo!

WAY to much time to spend on your hair!

I completely agree and as you can tell by the topic name it's not what I'm talking about, I just find it strange that out of the 30+ Polish guys I met in my life (I live in rural Cumbria so I don't meet that many Polish guys) all of them have very short hair.

As for me? I have around 4cm then I can style it if I want to but then I can leave it when I cba.

:D

Del boy: was just thinkin maybe there is hideous sens of that sentence No, no no I am a very nice bottle of whiskey! I think it is interesting that the women on this thread like a shaved head and the "problem" seems to be with men, so it only matters if you are gay.
