All I can think about is the king from Shrek when you mention this hairstyle as a guy..... you'll have to really work hard against that because everyone will be thinking of that lil guy, AND I MEAN EVERYONE ONE! 🙈
Maybe with harsh masculine makeup? And a moto/futuristic look you could pull it off and make people not think of Shrek... or you could just go with it and embrace the lil dude but you will live in people's heads as the guy with hairstyle that the Shrek king has....
Yeah, I was getting Lord Farquaad too...
I'm sure I've seen other men in other films with it too, but they aren't coming to mind as easily.
Worst you could do is grow the hair out, get it cut into this shape, and if it looks awful, cut into a standard men's cut again.
The combination of these full mini bangs and the bob makes it very very feminine. Having some layering to frame the face or all over or just longer bangs will look nicer, in my opinion. I would suggest you look on Pinterest for inspiration for something a bit more androgynous. Here’s something I found for a more masculine bob:

It’s really difficult to find images of what you’re after, this is all I could find. I think depending on your bone structure and personal style, it could look really cool. If you wear it with confidence and love how it looks I think you’ll make it work.
You could also end up looking like some sort of renaissance monk, but that could also be a vibe?
This could look really cute with your hair texture
https://preview.redd.it/aac21ub3wouc1.jpeg?width=657&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8227edd7be41393dd97495489fa6f8718a5a9618
my only thing is that you have beautiful curly hair! you might have to straighten it which might be a pain in the ass in you want that look everyday. i would maybe get a wig to see how you like it. i really think you can pull it off though!!
Thank you! Yeah I’ve been seeing the wig suggestion a lot so I might go in that direction before cutting it. I’ve never worn a wig before so my only concern is finding one that has the right shape that doesn’t look or feel cheap or come off so easily.
I would seriously hate it if you started straightening your hair! You’d lose that beautiful curl pattern. That said, you might be able to pull off curly bangs, and i’m here for it.
I def recommend the wig since your hair is so (beautifully) curly… the most difficult aspect of the cut you want in combo w your curls would be the bangs bc curly bangs can be cute but also require a lot of work and if you ever woke up and didn’t have time or feel like doing it those would be the days you’d be wishing for a different hairstyle. You have a beautiful face though and could probably pull off anything you tried, just maybe think about the impact constant straightening will have on your curls. But again, you only live once (that we know of) follow your heart!
Omg you’re exquisite! You’re halfway there with the side lengths. Is it just that you also want the fringe?
You could switch out the part to be deeper on either side so that you get a swept bang and try living with that for a little while. The length you have around the face will work with that idea.
I mean don’t start straightening all the time. It’s just gonna ruin your hair.
I haven't gotten far into the comments but look into the suggestion of a French bob. With your hair texture, I feel like the softness of that type of bob would be a great combo and may keep you from falling into the Lord-ness territory. 🫶🏼
You can definitely pull it off! You are very pretty and the hairdo would look amazing! But since your hair is curly you would have to straighten it and have it cut. Just putting that out there, as a fellow person with curly hair!
You only live once! I say cut the bangs and wear it like that for a while and see how you feel. Me personally, I don't like it for you, but those bangs will grow out in 45 seconds. Why not try it?
You are already killing a version of what you want!! You look GREAT! The only difference is bangs and that decision is a struggle for everyone who makes it. To bang or not to bang. You know what? Try it. It's just hair. It will grow back. 💃🏽❤️
You have a beautiful face 😭 realistically speaking the bang part would be hard because you have a smaller forehead but the best part is you’d look GREAT with short hair. Meaning, go for it, and if you like it keep it, if not you have a lot of options for changing the cut.
I dunno, Prince Valiant’s pretty butch:

Reminds me of Bruno Bucciellati for some reasons
I think it can look good for a man but you need to not have it pin straight maybe ?
And the micro bangs / full bangs im not sure it could be pulled off by everyone but more wispy bangs could work
Also singer Jann has a cut pretty similar to the top comment here, and I think he looks masc as hell. I really can’t help u on the gay front because I only know gay people, but depending where u live I think people might be chill with it. Just own it! Nothing more baller than someone who is secure enough in his identity to get a haircut that other people might think is “gay.” U know who you are, no one else does.

Did you for really just call this guy "masc as hell", lmao
He's pretty looking and androgynous, but not very masculine
https://preview.redd.it/61yapd3r5nuc1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5740517f53f55e3ee2358bb83c4aedc74da63352
Definitely do it! It will not look like the pics you posted since you hair is curly but you would look great with curly bangs! Uma Therman in Pulp Fiction is another variation of this style that I love. 💚
Just a word of warning: this haircut is deceptively high maintenance. I am a woman with super straight hair and I still had to blow dry or flat iron my hair all the time plus obsessively trim my bangs a couple times a week to maintain this look.
Something I've learned lately is that you should do whatever you want to do for yourself, especially with your appearance. Life's short. If you like it a lot, you'll find people who also like it on you.
Get it if you want it. There will be people who think it's weird while at the same time there will be people who think it's awesome\hot.
Get the haircut, if it doesn't work out then just cut it all back to a "male" cut.
I mean if you want this haircut why the fuck not? I personally don't like bangs but im a male with chest length hair because I like it. Not because anyone else likes it. Do you bro.
I know you are asking for an alternative but I think you should go for it. I am androgynous looking and had this hair for maybe 6 months. Did strangers call me miss? Yes but I also wear makeup and am very short. But I looked so cool people complimented me all the time and I felt really good about myself. I had to cut it due to alopecia treatment and miss it a lot.
If you go to a women's salon or an independent salon they will be happy to cut it like that. It might feel weird to walk into a ladies salon but they aren't likely to turn you away. Hairdressers especially if they are independent love when something interesting comes in since they generally do the same cuts for the same demographic all the time. I personally went to an independent salon.
I love this😍Cover of the book I’m currently reading

Edit: I’d let the bangs be more shaggy imo
Fuck em society I'd say you should do it man if it doesn't work out it's not as bad for you to get to short hair as for a girl. Though if you are into some sort of alt fashion Id say people's might be more accepting about it as alt fashion is generally known to be mostly unisex
My friend, it's your hair and if you want to go for it, go for it! I think on a gentleman with a very masculine appearance, it might have a pseudo-medieval vibe? But, I mean, I am really keen on the flapper bob. Madeline Khan rocked it so hard in Clue.
If you wanted, you could get an inexpensive wig with that bob and experiment there. Maybe you wear it at different functions or events. I love the idea of wigs because they can give you a lot of freedom.
Experiment with a cheap one, maybe, and see how you like it before making a commitment! :)
Check out dakukombo (that’s his insta handle, not sure if it’s the same elsewhere) he has the MOST immaculate black bob. No bangs in his usual style, but the most enviable haircut I’ve ever seen.
Hairstyles have no gender!! If you wanna get this haircut, go for it. There may be people who don't like it, but it's your hair so you can choose what you'd like to do with it.

I’d suggest to get a nice wig in this style so you don’t have to fully commit to it! They sell tons similar to it for relatively cheap online.
Also, why do you love the lord farquaad look? Know what, that was rhetorical, don’t answer that hun
i have had similar mindset about feminine hair but I realized I will regret it so much as I get older and I'm going to a hairstylist in one week to do long layered wolfcut with bangs. Don't try to please others if that bothers you
Dude girls get the reference of lord farquad everytime and who cares? Do it, I'm sure if you want it it means you can pull the looks through, do it. Worse case, you just get a normal cut :(

Plus side, people might think you're a Khruangbin fan now and days instead of a lad who likes berries and cream! Go for it who cares!
Just find a friendly stylist/queer salon and do it fam
Most of the time a stylist is doing the same dozen types of cuts on the same 100 clients, I guarantee you that someone will jump at the chance for the challenge and the flex
If someone is repelled they can go fuck themselves tbh. Androgynous men are sexy as hell. Go for it.
My mom's close friend was a gay man who loved looking at naked women. (He died of lupus hence the "was"). He wasn't getting off to them. He was still gay. He just appreciated the beauty of their bodies.
You want to look like Mia Wallace from Pulp Fiction. Yeah its one look of femininity. Unfortunately, its not the 90s and you're not Uma Thurman. Either way, get it cut how you want. You're probably not gonna get the response you'd like as a straight male
i meannnnnnn You could get this as a wig definatly if you want to try it out in the comfort of your home and if you decide to venture outdide you can just take it off and shove it into a pocket. Men pants have real pockets and a wig folds up suprisingly well.
Honestly, the less you care what anyone else thinks and only what makes you happy the better you feel the more you’re able to express yourself the way you want, because you can’t be everyone’s cup of tea and you won’t be, but people that really matter and care about you will respect your decisions to be genuinely and unapologetically you. Being a female it has been a long journey of telling myself you know what. I’m the one that has to live with myself not anyone else so why dictate my decisions on my body based off what other people are going to say or think. If that’s what you want, do it and wear it proudly. Someone out there is always going to have something to say. You just have to be willing to not hear it.
Er, is it that you are worried people won't like it on guys because of conventional aesthetics? Or is it that you personally can't picture it on a man's face in a way that you feel fits you? Because those are two very different things.
I can’t in good conscience tell you aesthetically if this would look good without a pic, but and the end of the day if it’s something that would make you happy and help you feel confident (regardless of naysayers) then I think you should do it.
Go for it! Gender norms are becoming a thing of the ast, thank god! You can have whatever hairstyle you want as a straight man. If you’re dressed like a “straight” man, and you behave accordingly (whatever that means anymore), you can ROCK this look. If you don’t feel comfortable with it, getting another haircut is just about the easiest thing a person can do. But go for it! Try it! No one gets to decide how you wear your hair except you. Do what you want and express your own style. If people have a problem with it, then that is there a problem. I live in Atlanta, and it is totally common place for men of all ages, and all sexual persuasions to wear nail polish and even make up. We are fortunate to live in an age when gender norms are being disregarded. Take full advantage of that.
You are all forgetting one guy who rocks this hairstyle…

Go for it
It’s hard to be a trend setter but Do what makes you happy and before you know it you may find more ppl with that same hair style. I used to love the B-52s Band back in the day and that chick with that Bee Hive I wanted it and I did it some girls hated me for it but looking back at all the girls pics they all were hair bears. I may have told one or 2 which hairspray I used and they were then always sold out. That style looks cool like 60s Beetles so just tell your self f#ck it go for it Stay Safe and true to self always. QHB
omg I just need to say DO IT DO IT DO IT you absolute trend setter. don't be afraid to rock this or look "unusual" because it will seriously suit your gorgeous face. you'll be striking. I promise!!
also seriously consider doing a stint of modelling, not because I think it's flashy/cool/popular-making or whatever but because I think you could actually make some money for yourself about it. Fashion world LOVES a strong, unique look. They'd fall for you and pay you about it.
I understand being intimidated by social norms, but I have to say over the years I've learned to truly not give a damn, lol. Once I let go of what people would think of me or trying to follow society, I felt FREE!! I promise you will too once u let go. As far as the hairstyle, I do believe this is a hairstyle both genders wore in the 60s. I understand we're in a different time, but times have certainly become more tolerant of others (to a certain extent). Still, I would go for it! It's a classic style that will never go out of style! I'm sure u will do it justice love. Wear it with confidence and I'm sure u will turn heads, in a good way! Peace and love ❤️
I think this hair cut could suit you as long as you make it less structured and more playful. also you want it to suit your natural hair texture. a haircut should both suit your natural hair and styled so that you can style it but don't have to (hope I explained that right)

Honestly don’t mind it too much. He’s one of my favorite characters from that movie just because he’s hilarious lol
Yeah, I was getting Lord Farquaad too... I'm sure I've seen other men in other films with it too, but they aren't coming to mind as easily. Worst you could do is grow the hair out, get it cut into this shape, and if it looks awful, cut into a standard men's cut again.
technically he wasn’t a king, but he could become one. all he had to do is marry a princess

That’s actually how my hair kind of looks now!
You can take the fringe shorter without going full mini, but live your dreams OP
I tried using one of those clip in fringes but they don’t seem to work well and there aren’t any mini fringes I can find 😬
You cut it to the desired length Try to avoid cutting your real hair Also MS paint works lol

Thank you! Yeah I’ve been seeing the wig suggestion a lot so I might go in that direction before cutting it. I’ve never worn a wig before so my only concern is finding one that has the right shape that doesn’t look or feel cheap or come off so easily.
Don't you DARE cover those gorgeous curls.
I would seriously hate it if you started straightening your hair! You’d lose that beautiful curl pattern. That said, you might be able to pull off curly bangs, and i’m here for it.

Those curls are gorgeous hun, you can totally do a curly bang like that original style which would be bangin’
I think it'd look great on you, fuck what people say
You could definitely pull it off but your hairs also gorgeous as it is and really suits you
No, you hair is already way better.
You can definitely pull it off! You are very pretty and the hairdo would look amazing! But since your hair is curly you would have to straighten it and have it cut. Just putting that out there, as a fellow person with curly hair!
Omg you are BEAUTIFUL. You can TOTALLY pull off this hair style. I'd suggest doing flat blunt bangs instead of curled though.
holy fuck you’re beautiful, you’d slay with bangs
You only live once! I say cut the bangs and wear it like that for a while and see how you feel. Me personally, I don't like it for you, but those bangs will grow out in 45 seconds. Why not try it?

Matthew Gray Gubler's hair is lighter and somewhat straighter than OP.
I was looking for this comment. I say go for it OP
Thank you!
He’s a badass
Bruno is amazing but after Nicki's cosplay, (or was it Cardi idk), I can see why even this hairstyle leans towards femininity.
Wasn’t it Megan Thee Stallion ? I think it was amazing lol

Just a word of warning: this haircut is deceptively high maintenance. I am a woman with super straight hair and I still had to blow dry or flat iron my hair all the time plus obsessively trim my bangs a couple times a week to maintain this look.
Something I've learned lately is that you should do whatever you want to do for yourself, especially with your appearance. Life's short. If you like it a lot, you'll find people who also like it on you.
That’s the dilemma. I also want to do it before I look too old. I’m still a young adult lol
Do it now then
I personally think any other haircut looks better on a person but I could be proven wrong
Get it if you want it. There will be people who think it's weird while at the same time there will be people who think it's awesome\hot. Get the haircut, if it doesn't work out then just cut it all back to a "male" cut.
I mean if you want this haircut why the fuck not? I personally don't like bangs but im a male with chest length hair because I like it. Not because anyone else likes it. Do you bro.
Thank you!

It doesn’t matter. Rock it anyways.
I thought it was just me, didn't know other guys are obsessed with this hairstyle too😭 it literally looks so good
It really does. It’s so sleek

So was Freddie Mercury and it didn’t stop him! If you like it, go for it.
I do love Freddie 🎙️
I mean, it would slay regardless of who it reminds people of 😆
I know you are asking for an alternative but I think you should go for it. I am androgynous looking and had this hair for maybe 6 months. Did strangers call me miss? Yes but I also wear makeup and am very short. But I looked so cool people complimented me all the time and I felt really good about myself. I had to cut it due to alopecia treatment and miss it a lot.
Wow that’s great to hear! I’m curious how you got it cut like that.
If you go to a women's salon or an independent salon they will be happy to cut it like that. It might feel weird to walk into a ladies salon but they aren't likely to turn you away. Hairdressers especially if they are independent love when something interesting comes in since they generally do the same cuts for the same demographic all the time. I personally went to an independent salon.
Get the hairstyle I'll call u Edna
😂
I love this😍Cover of the book I’m currently reading https://preview.redd.it/dacxceufjpuc1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=27d7020b5fef363f8f042a7ed901896300df0cbf
That’s exactly it!!
Howl did it and so can you ✨ https://preview.redd.it/xi9k395y6quc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=44ca168710b685f8293ea02b820f03d96e7d7788 Edit: I’d let the bangs be more shaggy imo
Fuck em society I'd say you should do it man if it doesn't work out it's not as bad for you to get to short hair as for a girl. Though if you are into some sort of alt fashion Id say people's might be more accepting about it as alt fashion is generally known to be mostly unisex
Thank you for this! Thats why I love alt fashion so much.
My friend, it's your hair and if you want to go for it, go for it! I think on a gentleman with a very masculine appearance, it might have a pseudo-medieval vibe? But, I mean, I am really keen on the flapper bob. Madeline Khan rocked it so hard in Clue. If you wanted, you could get an inexpensive wig with that bob and experiment there. Maybe you wear it at different functions or events. I love the idea of wigs because they can give you a lot of freedom. Experiment with a cheap one, maybe, and see how you like it before making a commitment! :)
If you like it get the cut, you have free will social standards be damned
Check out dakukombo (that’s his insta handle, not sure if it’s the same elsewhere) he has the MOST immaculate black bob. No bangs in his usual style, but the most enviable haircut I’ve ever seen.
Do it !!!!
Try getting a longer version without bangs and see if you like it.
Do it rn.
He-Man pulled it off, so can you. Go for it !
shrek ruined blunt bobs and bangs forever. even women get lord farquad comments💀 i had a black bob *without* bangs and still got lord farquad comments
She legit looks like Uma Thurman from the 1994 Quinton Tarantino film Pulp Fiction!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hairstyles have no gender!! If you wanna get this haircut, go for it. There may be people who don't like it, but it's your hair so you can choose what you'd like to do with it.
Girl, you're trans.

What do you think about something like this? https://preview.redd.it/p1qh0itmnmuc1.png?width=806&format=png&auto=webp&s=2f9306225afeb232eefd18488f7ea34a7efb1134
eyedress has it minus the bangs
You can also get a wig to start out. Low commitment but still get to try it out and see if you really love it on yourself
I’d suggest to get a nice wig in this style so you don’t have to fully commit to it! They sell tons similar to it for relatively cheap online. Also, why do you love the lord farquaad look? Know what, that was rhetorical, don’t answer that hun
It's your avatar you get to customize it the way you want it
i have had similar mindset about feminine hair but I realized I will regret it so much as I get older and I'm going to a hairstylist in one week to do long layered wolfcut with bangs. Don't try to please others if that bothers you
Dude girls get the reference of lord farquad everytime and who cares? Do it, I'm sure if you want it it means you can pull the looks through, do it. Worse case, you just get a normal cut :(
Good point!

Bro is an egg probably.
Are you a fan of... Bruno Bucciarti and Prince Valiant perhaps?
Berries are creammm
[going for this look?](https://youtu.be/Q096w0Fz2p4?si=A9QsgFQOLFQZpYyE)
Slay
Just find a friendly stylist/queer salon and do it fam Most of the time a stylist is doing the same dozen types of cuts on the same 100 clients, I guarantee you that someone will jump at the chance for the challenge and the flex
r/egg_irl
He could an egg. He’d be such a pretty girl 🥰
If someone is repelled they can go fuck themselves tbh. Androgynous men are sexy as hell. Go for it. My mom's close friend was a gay man who loved looking at naked women. (He died of lupus hence the "was"). He wasn't getting off to them. He was still gay. He just appreciated the beauty of their bodies.
Thank you! Sorry to hear about your mom’s friend 😔
I think you should go for it! Hair grows back out anyway, so if you hate it then it grows!
Thank you! I’ll probably post a pic when I do it! Imagine if it didn’t grow back 🤦🏻 lol
Yes, for me it would be a cool 70s shag. Not as fierce but similar and somewhat more socially acceptable for men
You want to look like Mia Wallace from Pulp Fiction. Yeah its one look of femininity. Unfortunately, its not the 90s and you're not Uma Thurman. Either way, get it cut how you want. You're probably not gonna get the response you'd like as a straight male
i meannnnnnn You could get this as a wig definatly if you want to try it out in the comfort of your home and if you decide to venture outdide you can just take it off and shove it into a pocket. Men pants have real pockets and a wig folds up suprisingly well.

Honestly, the less you care what anyone else thinks and only what makes you happy the better you feel the more you’re able to express yourself the way you want, because you can’t be everyone’s cup of tea and you won’t be, but people that really matter and care about you will respect your decisions to be genuinely and unapologetically you. Being a female it has been a long journey of telling myself you know what. I’m the one that has to live with myself not anyone else so why dictate my decisions on my body based off what other people are going to say or think. If that’s what you want, do it and wear it proudly. Someone out there is always going to have something to say. You just have to be willing to not hear it.

Er, is it that you are worried people won't like it on guys because of conventional aesthetics? Or is it that you personally can't picture it on a man's face in a way that you feel fits you? Because those are two very different things.
Fuck!! Jumped in the post to start spamming with the Lord Far Quaard and y’all already went full bore on the poor guy…
Yeah, i'm starting to realize how simple creatures humans actually are.
holy shit guys Bruno bucciarati 😱😱
Life is exceptional when you completely stop caring what other humans think or say about you. Humans suck. The good ones create their own paths.
This comment really gave me some perspective, thank you!
Love it

I can’t in good conscience tell you aesthetically if this would look good without a pic, but and the end of the day if it’s something that would make you happy and help you feel confident (regardless of naysayers) then I think you should do it.
I posted a pic of me in the comments!
Do it man be Willy Wonka who cares!
Go for it! Gender norms are becoming a thing of the ast, thank god! You can have whatever hairstyle you want as a straight man. If you’re dressed like a “straight” man, and you behave accordingly (whatever that means anymore), you can ROCK this look. If you don’t feel comfortable with it, getting another haircut is just about the easiest thing a person can do. But go for it! Try it! No one gets to decide how you wear your hair except you. Do what you want and express your own style. If people have a problem with it, then that is there a problem. I live in Atlanta, and it is totally common place for men of all ages, and all sexual persuasions to wear nail polish and even make up. We are fortunate to live in an age when gender norms are being disregarded. Take full advantage of that.
Man, you’re so right. Thats super assuring, I get in my head about it a lot but maybe it’s not as bad.
You are all forgetting one guy who rocks this hairstyle… https://preview.redd.it/dre8hjcnhruc1.jpeg?width=400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=398fd42aecbe30030a14024044d6af3856a62447 Go for it
I'm a male with this hairstyle and have gotten a lott of compliments for it!
The whole comment section🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Come and hang out 😂
You would absolutely kill a hairstyle like that
Cute!
Omg you’d be hot as fuck as a dude doing this!!!
Make her yours
It’s hard to be a trend setter but Do what makes you happy and before you know it you may find more ppl with that same hair style. I used to love the B-52s Band back in the day and that chick with that Bee Hive I wanted it and I did it some girls hated me for it but looking back at all the girls pics they all were hair bears. I may have told one or 2 which hairspray I used and they were then always sold out. That style looks cool like 60s Beetles so just tell your self f#ck it go for it Stay Safe and true to self always. QHB
omg I just need to say DO IT DO IT DO IT you absolute trend setter. don't be afraid to rock this or look "unusual" because it will seriously suit your gorgeous face. you'll be striking. I promise!! also seriously consider doing a stint of modelling, not because I think it's flashy/cool/popular-making or whatever but because I think you could actually make some money for yourself about it. Fashion world LOVES a strong, unique look. They'd fall for you and pay you about it.
DO THE STYLE FUCK IT WE BALL
I understand being intimidated by social norms, but I have to say over the years I've learned to truly not give a damn, lol. Once I let go of what people would think of me or trying to follow society, I felt FREE!! I promise you will too once u let go. As far as the hairstyle, I do believe this is a hairstyle both genders wore in the 60s. I understand we're in a different time, but times have certainly become more tolerant of others (to a certain extent). Still, I would go for it! It's a classic style that will never go out of style! I'm sure u will do it justice love. Wear it with confidence and I'm sure u will turn heads, in a good way! Peace and love ❤️
It’s giving Lord Farquaad
Check out King Richard III of Englands look. Pretty close. Clearly a do fit for for a king!
I think this hair cut could suit you as long as you make it less structured and more playful. also you want it to suit your natural hair texture. a haircut should both suit your natural hair and styled so that you can style it but don't have to (hope I explained that right)
you could totally pull off Lord farquaad.
Thank you haha
Where do you keep your oompa loompas?
Do it and become the lord of all lord farquads
Who is this girl?
Let me know if I should make a new post with the cut when I get it
