    Why do young fellas around the age of 18 care so much about their hair and general apperance? Its fu<king mad, they spend hours in front or the mirror making sure their spikes are 'spikey' enough!? Im not saying that every young fella that age is like that or anywhere near it, just a lot of them seem to be. My little brother and his mates spend at least a half an hour minimum at the mirror gelling their hair, its actually funny sometimes. But also a bit annoying!

    Guy do it to try and make sure we look good. I can be guilty of doing the same thing but half an hour seems like a bit long in all fairness. I spend maybe about 5 mins at the max when im goin out.

    You are complaining that guys spend too much time getting ready? :eek:
    When a girl tells me she is off to get ready and goes upstairs; noises issue forth from the room of no entry, for over an hour! If she doesn't have a shower that is... :)
    Some guys may take ages, metrosexuals and the ilk. (:
    I shower and put on clothes, that's it...

    No harm in a bloke taking pride in his looks...

    The only problem I have with boys gelling their hair is when they leave half of it behind them when they lean on windows in buses and the luas. Ick.

    Well, if I am in a hurry, I have to choose which I will do.
    Nobody likes to be dirty. ;)

    Haha,not all girls spend hours getting ready-but most do, il give you that!Its just funny to watch them do it, and the effort that goes into it, ha! Have any of you ever broken up with someone over how long they take to get ready, basically for being too 'high maintenance'?
