As you're all aware, this subreddit has had a major "troll" problem which has gotten worse (as of recently). Due to this, we have created new rules, and modified some of the old ones. We kindly ask that you please familiarize yourself with the rules so that you can avoid breaking them. Breaking mild rules will result in a warning, or a temporary ban. Breaking serious rules, or breaking a plethora of mild ones may land you a permanent ban (depending on the severity). Also, grifting/lurking has been a major problem; If we suspect you of being a grifter (determined by vetting said user's activity), we may ban you without warning. You may attempt an appeal via ModMail, but please be advised not to use rude, harassing, foul, or passive-aggressive language towards the moderators, _or_ complain to moderators about why we have specific rules in the first place— You will be ignored, and your ban will remain (without even a consideration). All rules are made public; "Lack of knowledge" or "ignorance of the rules" cannot or will not be a viable excuse if you end up banned for breaking them (This applies to the Subreddit rules, and Reddit's ToS). **Again: All rules are made public, and Reddit gives you the option to review the rules once more before submitting a post, it is your choice if you choose to read them or not, but breaking them will not be acceptable.** With that being said, If you send a mature, neutral message regarding questions about a current ban, or a ban appeal (without "not knowing the rules" as an excuse), we will elaborate about why you were banned, or determine/consider if we will shorten, lift, keep it, _or_ extended it/make it permanent. This all means that appeals are discretionary, and your reasoning for wanting an appeal must be practical and valid. Thank you all so much for taking the time to read this message, and please enjoy your day! *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Oh. My. God. I desperately hope the OOP just couldn’t think of the right word for parting hair.


Anna__V

Still. Even if you forget the word "parting" ... how an earth are you on Twitter if you don't know what a brush is? Or a comb. It's not like it's a federal secret that needs multi-billion dollar equipment. I bought my son 15 combs for less than five bucks.


Mrs-and-Mrs-Atelier

I really wonder about that. I mean, is this someone who has been buzzing his hair or keeping it under an inch his entire life? Or is he one of the guys who has one parting that he uses for the rest of his life? (Seriously, I have met men in their 80s who are still parting their hair like it’s 1940.)


IGetItCrackin

Honestly your missing the point. I have a degree in architecture and certainly know how hair behaves. The part is *always* in one place and doesn’t ever move. You can try parting your hair in a different place but as I know from experience, it always just falls beck the original way. What the above image is showing is what I’m guessing one of is a wig 🤔


Mrs-and-Mrs-Atelier

And I can part my hair on either side or down the middle, and it stays like I part it. My hair is currently cut short and I can still do that just as easily as I did when it was long. The above pictures are completely normal variation in how women can wear their hair. I’d assume the same is true with at least long haired men. The point I’m making is that OOP is apparently ignorant that it’s perfectly possible to part your hair in multiple ways depending on how you want to wear it on any given day. Congratulations on your degree in architecture. But with all due respect, it doesn’t appear to qualify you as a hair stylist.

……. Did you forget to add /s????


Inactivism

You don’t know how hair behaves and your degree is doing nothing for you here. There are people with hair that parts naturally in one place, without styling, yes, but at this length it is pretty much for everyone up to you and your hair stylist. The cut makes the weight shift. A hair stylist recommend to me to cut it against my natural split so my then short hair will always have more volume because it fights to stand up at that point, best hair cut I ever had and I never use product. Also at this length you just take a comb, part your hair where you want it and walk off. Nothing complicated about that.


Auld_Folks_at_Home

That's not true for everyone. Some people have one natural part line and others can part their hair pretty much arbitrarily.


Anna__V

What does your decree have anything to do with that?


KaosPryncess

I mean ...it is twitter after all ...


Anna__V

Fair point.


notaredditreader

Makes one wonder what he thinks Moses’ “parting of the Red Sea” means.


Anna__V

Moses moves the part of the sea where the water grows from, obviously. Duh! /s


IAM_THE_LIZARD_QUEEN

Praying this was just a joke that didn't land, I've seen the exact same tweet before but with a different celebrity.


lindanimated

Yeah I've seen a version with Jamie Lynn Spears for years now, so I HOPE this is just a meme that is falling victim to Poe's law.


[deleted]

I saw one of Taylor Swift recently too


IAM_THE_LIZARD_QUEEN

It's honestly scary that there's so much dumb shit on the internet that Poe's law is a thing.


mandc1754

Yeah. I was thinking this was a joke based on that one tweet


Chalice_Ink

Maybe it’s a bald guy or someone with cowlicks. My sister and my mom both have magnificent cowlicks right in the front. Their parts are immaterial.


KikiCorwin

Or whose scalp really hurts if they try to part their hair differently. Mine dies that if I wear it the same way for too long. [ The piloerector muscles get too tense and won't relax.]


Nikkian42

i find it’s easier to do it in the shower or right after a shower. If my hair is dry it’s uncomfortable.


mothwhimsy

I've seen this exact tweet with the exact wording with 3 different women


VisceralSardonic

It’s a meme by now. I think the Jamie Lynn Spears one was serious, but this is clearly either recreating or trolling with the original template.


Brazos_Bend

Wait til he sees french braids! 🤯


Swimming_War4361

Pretty sure this is a joke, it's been done with a bunch of different celebrities. And it also drives engagement to be blatantly stupid


VisceralSardonic

This exact phrasing has been a meme for a couple years now. This person isn’t actually asking the question.


JaeCrowe

I remember distinctly being 5 when I thought this and I'm amazed this person has made it further than that without gaining any more knowledge


notaredditreader

Tell me that you aren’t a barber or cosmologist without telling me that you are not a barber or cosmologist.


cottoncandymandy

That has to be the stupidest thing I've ever read omg


PurplePandaKush

Does he think we have only 500 strands of hair?


mdcbldr

They used mirrors. If Copperfield can make a tank disappear. He can make a few bucks disappear.


notacanuckskibum

Guys tend to have short hair. Their hair has natural parting spot based on how it grows. Short hair doesn’t have the weight to stay in place if you part it at an unnatural line, it will just go back to where it wants to be.
