I live in northern MN and for some reason would do my undercuts in the fall. Yeah, it's chilly at first. But after a bit, I don't even notice it anymore. This last one I've had for two years. I began shaving it myself for upkeep. It's so much cheaper. I can wear it down for a subdued look and enjoy the versatility with it.
@@e.d.7428 I did a side shave and kept my low undercut with it, not deathhawk (side shave only on one side). I guess I have enough hair, even though it's fine, to pull it off, even when I part my hair to cover the side shave when I feel like it. Ask your hairstylist if you are considered to have a lot of hair, even if it is fine hair, and if you do, go for it! I have had my hair like this since the end of December 2020 now. Still rockin it!
@@e.d.7428 Also, play with different ways to part your hair and see where it naturally falls to gauge what part location would be best to shave and how big of a section, if that makes sense...you don't want your shave line to be too high or too low, but it varies per person, depending on head shape and hair type, etc.
Thanks for the pros & cons. Love ur look. I had an undercut at the back about 2 months ago, just about to go up the sides a little....thinking I'll prob go higher and higher eventually... I have waist length hair, love it long but want to edge it up, I previously had dreadlocks for 6 years and even now for myself I only brush it every other day after I wash it basically...so I guess we're different there hahaha. Since I had the undercut, I've loved the feel of it so much more! It's lighter, easier to wash, faster to dry.
I really want to get a deathhawk because I'm a new mom and I'm tired of putting up this mess of hair 24/7. Baby grabs my hair so much that I would like less to maintain and just keep it in a braid or topknot. Also my partner said he would trim it with clippers regularly. Great cut for the summer!
I have super thick hair and it’s summer in Texas, so I feel like I finally can put my hair up without a head ache and have my hair down without dying of a heat stroke. I will let grow out more but I NEVER want to have long hair at the sides. I never realized before how bothersome it is bc I was too scared to look masculine (like it even matters!!!)
It's a Deathrock/Gothic Punk hairstyle it doesn't have to be perfect, social media has created this expectation that everything has to be extremely on point, it loses its tribalism or even individual senses, many of DIY old school punk hairstyles were not always perfect
Thank you for saying this! It is really important to remember the things you mentioned. (I have a deathhawk and did and do it by myself. I absolutely love the shaving-practice and the variety I have with this haircut. It constantly boosts my confidence (I was /am a very shy and nonconfident person.)) This haircut is sooo amazing. Hope you are doing well.
@@mariew2.062 you are most welcome! I have always felt that ritualistic tonsure vibe when maintaining the sides of my head trimming and shaving down. So far doing well and add me @batlordcarcas on ig if you would like to as well
Omg I just did this yesterday and I miss my hair lol but I do love the edgy look of this. I think I cut it too high but it’s whatever egh lol but I have the EXACT same length of the deathhawk like yours.
I'm planning on getting a side swept undercut pixie thing-y. One side undercut. Hair {down to the bottom of my ear} on the right. Let's see if my grandma and mom will let it happen.
ive had my undercut with the sides almost as tall as yours on the sides for about 2 years now, i still have pretty long hair besides that and most people dont know i have my undercut unless i have it in a bun lmao , but its one best hairstyles ive ever had 🧡🧡🧡
I have long and thick hair to the middle of my back, I really want a deathhawk with my long hair. I just want to try it out but I’m afraid I might look bad xD (Edit: IM GETTING A DEATH HAWK 😂)
skyblue fox it turned out great! I still have it and my mom just reshaved the sides for me! I got a few inches cut off my hair when I first got it cut in December but it was needed 😂, I definitely recommend for summer since it’s hot outside
Omfg i want to dye my hair black and get a deathhawk SO FUCKING BADLY- i just dont know how it'll look 👀 plus i have a weirdly conservative family?? Ya know they chRistIanS- maybe i can convince them since i do have thick hair so i could cover it around family?? Idk 💀
i have about an inch i would say over my ears shaved. I want more shaved, not a lot, but enough to make it a little more noticeable. And I do often do a half up half down look and I like the way the little shaved bits just peak out. And I really enjoy having the sides shaved mostly because I don't have those annoying baby hairs. i am lazy about shaving it, tho. But, I have always been and it didn't really bother me
When I was in high school I was going through a lot and one day I at school I took some school scissors and chopped my hair off. It was down to my butt and I took it to my shoulders. But because i used dull scissors i fucked it up and then my grandma took me to a barbershop and i cut all of it to about 2 inches. It looked goo though
Maybe thin dreads are a way for you? They are easy to install once you get the hang of it and they give volume. You can go with natural colours, ombre natural to crazy or plain crazy colours. Etsy has a lot of crafty people and the dreads serve you a long time :)
As I was... around 14 years old I took myself a side cut too on the same side as yours and for the same reason. On this time I was very silently and I had not much confidence... Much people have said that to me and I wanted to be different and I wanted a change. This do not really help me, but I look different and it was easier for me to behave how I look like. Now the time is better for me. For two days I shaved myself a dethhawk and I really like it. I really like to have shaved sides on my head and be a bit against the system :) Greetings to you!
I want to have a death hawk. I do work at a school though. I need to make sure my hair is long before I do it so it can be covered Edit: I did it with a bob length hair. My hair is so thick that it covers really well. I love it!
AmyLeeBasshunter is your work real strict on their death hawk policy? Why bother with the cut and style if you are not completely comfortable with it and seem to believe you must hide it? You seem a little bit lame and just maybe you lacked originality all threw life , copying trends and other peoples individual style and ideas, so make sure you cover the actual style to avoid what? Your naked scalp? My doctor and so many other girls and women sport a under shave and just wear it with confidence and comfort professionally because that the look they were going for. 🙀 Your weak ass comment just kinda bugged me , I shouldn’t give a shit just like when I go to work at Battle Creek Environmental Elementry with what ever hairstyle I’m sporting at the time . Oh and I don’t think any of my Colleagues think of me differently , turns out my shaved sides have been killing it two years now . You need to make sure to cover your under cut , you do work at a school! 🧐 Who gives a fuck about your dam haircut , unless your professional performance is altered due to your haircut. 🤭
I did this and I regret nothing I just hated the sides. Greasy sides no matter what I did it had to be perfect from the blow dryer. Lady said since I had a cow lick o shouldn't go shorter but I do want to try the Mikey look with a twist but I love having a mohawk.
I was afraid I wouldn't either, but tbh, it was the best thing ive ever done for myself, do what she did though, little by little. When your older though, don't go against your parents.
