Have any of you guys tried women's hair? Have any of you girls tried men's hair? Does it look just wrong or are there certain brands or styles that seem to work?

A female avi asked where I got my hair the other day. She also kept on calling me 'hon'.

I saw a guy the other day wearing a longer, straight wig that I recognized as being a woman's wig. It didn't look bad at all, and I remember thinking at the time "Hey, great idea, why didn't I think of it?"

Hi Bree,
I´ve never tried this myself, but I don´t see why it wouldn´t work, provided it can be resized enough. There are also several stores that styles they advertise specifically as unisex, though can´t remember which off the top of my head.

Check out: savoirhair.blogspot.com for more information about hair :)

I was mistaken for a woman the other day. No, I wasn't ruthed, and yes, I do have a beard in SL. I think it was the hair, which is a male hair, but is sort of long and shaggy. I really need to work on my shape. Maybe I should give up and go with the huge muscles/7.5 foot tall steroid shape. Add enough bling and I'll fit right in.

Some styles don't work for some people..ever... lol

I saw a man who looked like he would be a biker (Big, leather jacket, spikes, etc etc.. I mean the stereotypical biker gang look) other than his hair. It was long (middle of his back), shiny brown, and wavy... obviously womens hair.. it was pretty. Ruined his image in my opinion lol...

I'm looking for something in a nice updoo. Maybe blonde. Something that looks good with a tux, for those formal occasions.

My hair's great. The rest of me needs a little help, though.

Even when they're attached to a pony? Cool.

One of my favorite styles is a 'mens' style... I forget where I got it (can't get inworld at the moment) but the style was called Hyde.

I know a few gals who wear mens styles, because they like the shorter hair and there are some very nice short styles which are marketed for men.

I think Hyde is one of Natalia Zelmanov's at Sirena, West Sunset (160,50,22).

I can't find anything for 'the older man'. Been trying to find something long, longish or at least longer, but with a high hairline (read 'receding') and definitely not ponytail. Most women's styles are about falling across the face & shoulders etc.

The problem is where you have to stick your head to get the pony tail to look like it's in the right place.

A ponytail worked for me, but I get more looks now from women with my hair in my eyes (both styles I have are guy hair)...Golly! the thought did enter my mind about wearing women's hair, but I'm not that brave yet...(and don't even think about asking me to wear women's clothes... I'm definitely not that brave...heh heh heh!!!)

Either someone was playing without glasses or those beer gogles were getting huge!

Maybe you should give yourself a slut rating... :D
