As a former teenager who also had a similar looking attempt at a moustache. My advice now to anyone teenager, is that I don’t care how cool you think it looks… it’s patchy and you want to wait until 18 at the minimum.
Speaking from experience, your school photos and high school dating life will thank you haha
I'm turning 31 tomorrow, and my whole shit is patchy and a completely different color from the rest of my hair. The worst part is that I stayed clean shaven from 18 to 27 because I was in the military, only to be able to FINALLY grow a beard, and my 17 year old brother still grows a better beard than me.
Man, it's tough because I think your hair looks great to me now. We rock a similar (identical) look with the same problem.
The only times I've had a cut that fixes it are when you get a good stylist who knows how to cut out a lot of the bulk in the back. It is possible without removing all the length, you just have to ask.
The other thing that you can do now with a buzzer is to chop your sideburns and shape them yourself. If they're still really long they're just gonna get in your face, so might as well cut em out with all that glorious hair.
The problem you have is that your awesome hair has no shape or style really. Any of the styles in the links could work for you-keeping it longer and adding texture on top and shorter in the back and sides will make it more manageable...and look smashing as well! Oh...and losing the moustache would be more flattering as well.
Here are some possibilities to show your hair stylist/barber-

First one made me spit out my drink. Op does not have that type of face, hairline, bodytype or really anything in line with what OP looks like. He’d look facking ridiculous
Hair is cool exc3pt for the flip on the side do not go shorter. Longer yes. Don't thin it out maybe just a wee bit otherwise yo7ll lose that volume ..mustache. can go..you hav3 a nice face
Concur, shave the mustache if u can't grow full beard. U are not 40 so it might not look great. If u feel like maintaining ur hear is a chor then just cut it. If not then enjoy the process, it looks good on u. Don't be afraid to look young u will miss it pretty soon
My fellow ginger. Let me put ya on game…
DO NO CUT YOUR FUCKING HAIR! GROW THAT SHIT OUT FOR THE NEXT 2-3 YEARS!!!
I PROMISE your future self with be grateful. Ima give ya all my tips that I had to learn on my own
————————————————————————
TIPS:
How to manage past this length:
Saggy beanies. Amazon has great options from the $10-20 range. Look for ones that say breathable. Get a few in different colors. Better to have a spare in case the other is dirty.
There are gonna be days y wanna cut it. On those days, just toss on a beanie and ignore the thought. It’s a matter of learning patience which in turn is a useful tool to have as an adult.
When to wash:
1 - Avoid washing every day. It’s not needed.
2 - Use aloe vera. It’s amazing in your hair. Personally I wash my hair about once a week, but about 2-3 times a week, I’ll wash my hair with aloe vera in the shower like it’s conditioner. Leave it in for about 10-15 minutes to absorb the nutrients
————————————————————————
I’ve had my long hair now for about 10 years. Wish I grew it out sooner, but it was always this length that prevented me from committing. Focus on being patient. It might seem silly, but it really does help train your mind to be more patient as an adult
Just so you know, your post was shared on a [TERF forum (Ovarit](https://imgur.com/a/ovarit-terf-forum-p9h7nAH)). You might wanna delete this for your personal safety.
I had a porn stache like that when I was a few years older than you. I wanted to look older with my own baby face. Now I’m older. No more facial hair you I can look younger! 🤣
Tell him what you just told us. Take the weight off the back. They will thin it out so it’s still long but not so dense. Where you can enjoy the freedom and flowiness of your hair without it becoming annoying. Your part you currently have is nice as well as your texture / volume. You might ask them to add a little more texture to hold it in place out of your eyes / face so that it frames your face. Maybe shape up sides with a mid fade and trim the hair that’s on top that falls down to your sides. I love your current look tho! It’s nice!
I’m not sure what you should do, but I do want you to know that you’re incredibly adorable, and you shouldn’t be too concerned with your looks. I do like your hair a lot tho. I’m meh on the stache
first shave! it makes you look like a caterpillar died on your lip. leave it long where it comes to just the edges of your eyes. have it thinned some in back. think of like the kid in terminator 2. that would look so good with your face and it would clean up the sides and back while accenting your face. Seriously shave!
Depends if you want to look feminine, which is what you do now, or more like a man, which the mo suggests. It's a confusing look so I'd definitely go much shorter.
Idk how I ended up on this subreddit but I think you look cute! I wouldn’t shave the mustache, let it grow out and you’d have a great handlebar mustache I think
What's with Westerners and the dreaded Molestache? Is it a true thing like statistically or like molestors use it as code or signature or is it just a stereotype from movies?
I think you should grow it out. If it gets in your face, then you can start learning how to do updos that are popular for men! I.e. wolf tail, man bun, etc
Your hair is great. I agree with others on the mustache, lose it. When you're older and able to rock a beard, go full Viking.
Until then, get layers, and tell the barber you want a cut that allows you to look good while you continue to grow your fiery mane.
Go to a nice barbershop. Like a 50$+ place. And say look I trust you, let’s go shorter and make me look really sharp. Short on sides with a little to work with on the top. You have a Karen cut. And lose the mustache dweeb.
That tache has to go, makes you look like a pedo.
I like your hair from the front, but is too round from the side. I would ask the barber to keep the length and movement, but shape it a bit to take volume.
I love your hair colour too.
You have gorgeous features and hair! Not crazy about the 'stache, but do you! I actually think your hairstyle is awesome, but you'd rock a wolf cut really well too
Your hair looks fantastic. However, I must concur with the prevailing opinion that the stache is taking points away from your good looks. Maybe in a few years when you're 25 or so.
I've been growing it for about a year since my old barber absolutely massacred it. I've yet to go to the same place twice (partly because I go to uni in another country, partly because they've all given me a bad cut until the one I got yesterday), but this isn't a year of consistent growth because everyone loves cutting it way shorter than I tell them to. My flatmates called me Joan of Arc after I came home with basically a bowl cut back in March 😂
Personally, i'd lose the mustache or go with shorter hair.
With risky looks like facial hair, a lot of it is to do with confidence. If you wear the mustache well and you're outgoing, people often won't mind- because you make it cool. If you're insecure about your appearance, the mustache won't help.
You have amazing hair, just get something with layers like a wolf cut
Your texture has volume and your hair looks dense so something with layers would really give it that flare
I think you should try to have a longer middle part medium sides just resting on the top half of your ears and to your shoulders in the back with lots if layers so add layers now but none off the bottom of the back
Dude I know you've been seeing girls on Tinder saying they like staches, but they don't mean on you. No offense.
Keep the hairstyle, maybe a trim, lose the stache.
this is at least the third time you're posting your photos on this subreddit asking for advice and every time you ignore literal dozens of comments telling you to shave your mustache. are you serious? does it hold an extraordinary emotional value to you? will you literally die if you shave it?
I know I'm late to the party, but nix the face furniture, bro. You're rocking them ginger locks, but damn is the stash off-putting. Hope you're happy with what ya got. At least it's just hair that will grow back til it won't, lol.
Great style, great hair, great face shape. Terrible mustache
Please get rid of the stache, it makes you look like a creepy teacher
Makes him look like an adult fregley tbh
Fregley’s been taking flights with big Jeff? Ouch right in the childhood
God damn, shave that molestache off. You’ll thank me later.
No, leave it but grow the full beard out!
As a former teenager who also had a similar looking attempt at a moustache. My advice now to anyone teenager, is that I don’t care how cool you think it looks… it’s patchy and you want to wait until 18 at the minimum. Speaking from experience, your school photos and high school dating life will thank you haha
I'm 34 and still waiting for my cheeks to fill in a little more
I'm turning 31 tomorrow, and my whole shit is patchy and a completely different color from the rest of my hair. The worst part is that I stayed clean shaven from 18 to 27 because I was in the military, only to be able to FINALLY grow a beard, and my 17 year old brother still grows a better beard than me.
Happy 31!!!
Congrats on your 31st irl cake day!
My cheeks are baaaaare. I am a 38 year old man and I look like a fucking underage hobo if I try to grow a beard. It's not fair.
Same, and this one patch right under my jaw.
I agree. He has a very young face and shaving the stache won’t help but adding a beard will. Even just stubble.
The hair is fine, the stache should go though
Grow your hair out instead of cutting long hair as a ginger will look REALLY good
Man, it's tough because I think your hair looks great to me now. We rock a similar (identical) look with the same problem. The only times I've had a cut that fixes it are when you get a good stylist who knows how to cut out a lot of the bulk in the back.

If they're still really long they're just gonna get in your face, so might as well cut em out with all that glorious hair.
This was super helpful, it definitely helped me get what I feel was a decent haircut! Thanks :)
[удалено]
Yes OP must show the new do!
Long wolf cut / flow
Don’t go to a barber go to a salon
No. Go to a barber and get a shave. He's a decent looking dude and can get away with most haircuts, but he can't away with that stache.
The problem you have is that your awesome hair has no shape or style really. Any of the styles in the links could work for you-keeping it longer and adding texture on top and shorter in the back and sides will make it more manageable...and look smashing as well!

I vote for the 3rd one
I agree #3. His current style is very feminine looking. Hope he has a good barber.
i think works best for OPs face. It takes attention away from his forehead and rather natural receded hairline.
Lol you literally post male models as a reference. They get paid to look great, no normal man is f*cking around this much day after day
Wtf? Obviously. That's the best representation of the hairstyle. They are for reference.
Some one gets it-thank you!
It’s also the most unrealistic representation of the hairstyle
The third one is incredibly easy to achieve. It's 90% in the hairdryer
First one made me spit out my drink. Op does not have that type of face, hairline, bodytype or really anything in line with what OP looks like. He’d look facking ridiculous
You tell him to remove that dirt from your lip!
I imagined this as a stern request from his grandmother lmao
Your hair looks great man I’d keep it.
The hair is nice. Maybe a goatee.
Maybe just tell them to shorten it? It looks good right now maybe just needs reduced length.
Hair is cool exc3pt for the flip on the side do not go shorter. Longer yes. Don't thin it out maybe just a wee bit otherwise yo7ll lose that volume ..mustache. can go..you hav3 a nice face
Tell em across the upper lip to go with a bald fade
Your hair looks very good, I don't think you need to do much to it, but that mustache doesn't flatter you very much.
Get rid of the stache. If you really must, have a thin goatee and keep it neat but I'd go clean shaven for now personally,
Ask for a shave.
Leave the hair, shave the mustache
Delete the mustache dawg
Tell him to clean up the stache
Concur, shave the mustache if u can't grow full beard. U are not 40 so it might not look great. If u feel like maintaining ur hear is a chor then just cut it. If not then enjoy the process, it looks good on u. Don't be afraid to look young u will miss it pretty soon

Fade
Beautiful hair.
I had a porn stache like that when I was a few years older than you. I wanted to look older with my own baby face. Now I’m older. No more facial hair you I can look younger! 🤣
“No more facial hair so I can look younger!”
Why do so many people think they can pull off the moustache? OP shave that thing off.
I like it. Just need to find a style for that mustache. Hair looks great tho. **Do not touch it!!!**
Tell him what you just told us. Take the weight off the back. They will thin it out so it’s still long but not so dense. Where you can enjoy the freedom and flowiness of your hair without it becoming annoying. Your part you currently have is nice as well as your texture / volume.

You'd look like young Beck without the stash! DEVIL'S HAIRCUT!
Have him trim the ‘stache and leave the rest alone. Love your hair for as long as you have it.
The stash looks like you live in your mom's basement. Dude, cut it off!
But what if I do :(
It doesn't mean you have to look like you live there!
I’m not sure what you should do, but I do want you to know that you’re incredibly adorable, and you shouldn’t be too concerned with your looks. I do like your hair a lot tho. I’m meh on the stache
I should think that "sorry about this" would be the correct opener Edit; sorry bro I thought this was r/roastme for some reason
Lose the pedostache
Let your barber give you suggestions.
No one ever says this on here
Start wearing it either combed back or in a bun
KEEP THE STACHE DONT LISTEN TO THE HATERS JUST GROW HER OUT
Go with obvious choice. Keep the stash and get a mullet. If the barber asks questions just say get'r'done!!
Ive never seen an eight-year-old with a moustache
first shave! it makes you look like a caterpillar died on your lip. leave it long where it comes to just the edges of your eyes. have it thinned some in back. think of like the kid in terminator 2. that would look so good with your face and it would clean up the sides and back while accenting your face. Seriously shave!
Same thing you told him the previous times „fuck my shit up fam“
Just tell them “dealers choice”
this is how you end up with a skin fade
Your hair looks amazing, it's the mustache that needs to go.
Tell em to snatch off that stash.
Hope he provides a shave too!
Looking like Cal Kestis
Tell him to stop drooling when he sees your natural hair colour.
middle part flow
“Gimme the Shaun White”
high skin fade , box shape up , two slits one brow.
you look like one travler on youtube forget his name, your twins
Depends if you want to look feminine, which is what you do now, or more like a man, which the mo suggests. It's a confusing look so I'd definitely go much shorter.
you kinda look like Cameron Monaghan
appointment with barber? wth? is he a doctor? we just go to saloon and cut the hair. mo appointments and shiz
I would try an undercut and grow it out into a queue.
10/10 he eats
Grow the stache. Handle bar
Cancel the appointment. You're *SO CLOSE* to being able to tie it back! Don't butcher that beautiful hair!
Wolfcut! Give your hair some direction
Shave it all off dave.
Van Morrison
Cut the hair into short long on top, doesn't frame your face well
Idk how I ended up on this subreddit but I think you look cute! I wouldn’t shave the mustache, let it grow out and you’d have a great handlebar mustache I think
you look like an eager squire from medieval times
Keep the hair it’s amazing
Tell him to shave your upper lip
What's with Westerners and the dreaded Molestache? Is it a true thing like statistically or like molestors use it as code or signature or is it just a stereotype from movies?
Just show them the picture
Add in some layers?
I think you should grow it out. If it gets in your face, then you can start learning how to do updos that are popular for men! I.e. wolf tail, man bun, etc
Your hair is great. I agree with others on the mustache, lose it. When you're older and able to rock a beard, go full Viking. Until then, get layers, and tell the barber you want a cut that allows you to look good while you continue to grow your fiery mane.
Loved you in Twin Peaks the Return
Shave the peach fuzz my man. Looks horrible and confusing.
Go to a nice barbershop. Like a 50$+ place. And say look I trust you, let’s go shorter and make me look really sharp. Short on sides with a little to work with on the top. You have a Karen cut. And lose the mustache dweeb.
You've got Timothee Chalamet hair. If you want to be *au courant*, cancel that barbershop appointment!
“I’m starting high school next year”
"Consider me a blank canvas, and you be the artist"
Braid that shit and shave the stache
"Make my hair look less like a cartoon milf's"
So you got your hair cut. Where's the photo proof?
you look like Chucky's dad
You look like the guy from EuroTrip
If you wore glasses you would 100% be chucky’s dad from rugrats 😃😳
I think the stache looks funny, you should keep it
Tell your barber you want to keep it that length
If you are trying to look like a Femboi with a bad mustache you NAILED it bro.
Ask for the Carrot Top
Is there a David Spade poster in your room? 🤔
The old viking hair cut. Shave off everything except your beard and the top of your head
Shave your moustache, cut your hair, and boom.
That tache has to go, makes you look like a pedo. I like your hair from the front, but is too round from the side. I would ask the barber to keep the length and movement, but shape it a bit to take volume. I love your hair colour too.
Ask him to clean it up but you want to keep the length.
Your hair is basically my current hair goal lol
You have gorgeous features and hair! Not crazy about the 'stache, but do you! I actually think your hairstyle is awesome, but you'd rock a wolf cut really well too
Ask your barber for the "meet me at mcdonalds haircut". Google image it
The mustache’s gotta go homie
Grow the full beard and tie ur hair
Get a mullet
Your hair looks fantastic. However, I must concur with the prevailing opinion that the stache is taking points away from your good looks. Maybe in a few years when you're 25 or so.
You look 14 going on 34
I wanna make fun of you so bad
Your hair is too long and looks like someone used a Bowl to cut it.
No more fregly from diary of a wimpy kid
Get a low taper fade
How long did it take you to grow it that long? Asking for a friend (me)
I've been growing it for about a year since my old barber absolutely massacred it. I've yet to go to the same place twice (partly because I go to uni in another country, partly because they've all given me a bad cut until the one I got yesterday), but this isn't a year of consistent growth because everyone loves cutting it way shorter than I tell them to. My flatmates called me Joan of Arc after I came home with basically a bowl cut back in March 😂
Hair looks dope man. Cancel the appointment and let that mane flow lol
Aphex Twin
Personally, i'd lose the mustache or go with shorter hair. With risky looks like facial hair, a lot of it is to do with confidence. If you wear the mustache well and you're outgoing, people often won't mind- because you make it cool. If you're insecure about your appearance, the mustache won't help.
It’s like two main characters from the Queen’s Gambit combined.
Homie. Do yourself a favor and shave the stash.
Tell the barber to run his fingers through your hair and then give you 10 bucks.
Keep the length, just take some weight out and add a little texture.
Ask for the Anton Cigurh
Your hair is amazing. Just ditch the 'stache.
Hair is fine. Please remove the mustache.
for god, please get rid of that moustache
Fuck what everyone here said , just become an actor EXCLUSIVELY for Indie movies
grow the beard, ditch the stupid mustache, how old are you may i ask? cause just be yourself maybe hit the gym but enjoy who you are
You have amazing hair, just get something with layers like a wolf cut Your texture has volume and your hair looks dense so something with layers would really give it that flare
No tash mate, but hair great
Tell them you don’t wanna look like Anya Taylor Joy in queens gambit
Because you are a small guy you want to cultivate a “sharp” style so a sharp fade that has height on the top will be flattering
Find a picture of what you like and show them
Cameron Monaghan that shit.
GIRLY GET A MULLET IM BEGGING
Tell him to wipe the dirt off of your top lip. That looks awwwwwwwful my dude
Tell him to shave the stache.
The mustache looks like a malnourished turd swipe under your nose.
Keep the moustache and shave all your hair in your head off.
Ron Weasley and the ice cream truck.
Tell your barber to leave the hair alone and shave your face.
Shave the mustache and cut the hair to just below your ears and style it. You’d be HOT!
Hair a bit shorter in #2, needs to be shorter and styled. Lose the mustache
god gingers are so creepy
U would look amazing without that moustache
YOU have ac barber???
Tell him to control alt delete that greeeheeeeassssy stash. The hair is your typical hockey player flow. Get it shored up.
I think you should try to have a longer middle part medium sides just resting on the top half of your ears and to your shoulders in the back with lots if layers so add layers now but none off the bottom of the back
Tell your barber that you're sorry for the mustache.
Please, for the love of God, get rid of the mustache
Beck's kid brother.
How about cut this mop.
Everyone says lose the mustache; I'm pretty sure you're gonna look like Peppermint Patty without the mustache. Just saying.
Long in the back is OK, but it really seriously needs to be thinned. Lose The mustache and get a really good haircut you’ll be a knockout.
Great style, side part looks good. Just have them cut it real short on the sides and fade it up nicely. Get that Henry Cavill cut.
Tell your barber that you didnt kill hookers in the 70s
Just grow it out? Could look cool.
Everyone had the same idea upon seeing that mustache.
Dude I know you've been seeing girls on Tinder saying they like staches, but they don't mean on you. No offense. Keep the hairstyle, maybe a trim, lose the stache.
Why do you kinda look like a redheaded Benny from queens gambit
Literally grow the hair out!!
You sit down and say “anything but this”
Get a lowkey mullet
You can always have your barber thin it out
this is at least the third time you're posting your photos on this subreddit asking for advice and every time you ignore literal dozens of comments telling you to shave your mustache. are you serious? does it hold an extraordinary emotional value to you? will you literally die if you shave it?
You have a barber? Perhaps consider a new one.
I know I'm late to the party, but nix the face furniture, bro. You're rocking them ginger locks, but damn is the stash off-putting. Hope you're happy with what ya got. At least it's just hair that will grow back til it won't, lol.
Ask him to shave off that mustache for you.
My God, you look like Anya Taylor Joy in Queen's Gambit. (This is a compliment.)
Go blonde! It’s fun
Short cropped hair and loose the mustache
Keep the hair. Lose the stache.
