Mom really had to make that $4.75/hour stretch.
tbf both look bad
Ya huh? We’ve evolved from dork to douche?
I’m sure top will look cringe (or whatever the new word for it will be) in 20 years too.
Are you implying that bowl cuts weren’t cringe 20 years ago? The top will at least be in style when they are wearing it.
Um. Bowl cuts are in style NOW. Have you not seen those 20-something TikTok guys who are so sure they’re the most attractive person in the world? Bowl cuts.
And bowl cuts weren’t cringe in the 90s. Hence why we all had them. It was an accepted style of the time, and because the most horrible styles of the 90s are suddenly on trend again, they’re not cringe now—according to general consensus and fashion. It’s all relative. You or I can look back at our bowl cuts and think they look terrible, but they didn’t have the same context when they were on our heads back then. And they don’t for the people who got that haircut now.
As someone who was a kid through the 90s, we made fun of the kids with bowl cuts. They were cringe then.
Are you sure you’re not dealing with false memories here? We were kids. Sure, after we all lost the bowl cuts and became adolescents, we made fun of/were embarrassed of the haircuts we used to have.
But no one at all in my life ever even discussed our haircuts until we were old enough to want to be someone else. Or maybe you’re younger than I am and I lost my bowl cut with the times and some kids had them stick around through when you were a kid.
But there was zero discussion of them until we didn’t have them anymore in anyone i ever knew. But we all definitely had them as young kids.
I explicitly remember making fun of Matt for his haircut in grade 6, which was 2001. I still consider that being a kid.
I’m putting it out there now, cringe will continue to evolve and the feeling will get elaborated and exaggerated until the new version of cringe will basically be imploding into yourself like a black hole or being spaghettified.
I used to be cringe, but then they changed what cringe was. Now I’m not cringe anymore and what is cringe seems weird and scary. based af
You act like that doesn’t look like shit now lol
It already is cringe on a kid.
It’s cringe on an adult too.
The future is here:
What do we call that one?
Bowl cut? No…mushroom cut…
The medical term is “circumcised”
The top one took the time to look good, the bottom one just needed to get rid of hair.
to look good? If you think haircuts drawn by a sharpie look good, then ok.
that kid looks cool as fuck
That kid looks like his name is Bradleigh and all his dads are lawyers.
It looks good. Your comment is way too toxic considering we’re talking about a child’s haircut.
Hair cut AND face paint. Half that kids hair is drawn on.
Easier and more hygienic, bald kids with paint and a wig.
Sounds like something from the Mycogen district (foundation series).
As a women I don’t get much say in it, but we could never afford haircuts growing up so dad and I cut each other’s hair, but I wasn’t given much choice. The top one looks like someone tried to make a little kid into an adult, but on the other hand, if he wanted it that way, why judge? Especially if it helps their self esteem.
I am a huge proponent of letting kids choose their own style and express themselves, even if we think it looks bad. I knew a lot of kids growing up with bowl cuts, snazzy buzz cuts, and just generic “insert male haircut here”. It is just hair. It grows back. There is always going to be a little extra to unpack once you get their peers involved, but that is another lesson entirely (body image, unhealthy expectations, etc).
Luckily for you it’s popular now to have bowl cuts nowadays. Too many teens doing that where I live
Both are ugly
Top one looks like it’s from a Turkish barbers, but they photoshopped a kids face onto it because nobody would believe that Ronaldo had been there.
Top one will only last 1.5 days before needing the next haircut.
I remember getting a buzz cut when I was 8 or 9 in the 80s and thinking I looked so rad.
You could’ve teamed up with the kid with the bowl cut to have 2/3 of the Three Stooges.
My mom forced buzz cuts on me.
Sorry but both look dogshit
I’ve seen a lot of young kids with bowl cuts, mullets, like whatever the goofiest 80-90s hair cuts. They dig that shit, it’s rad.
One of the things I like about the younger generation is they brought back the mullet, updated it, and it actually looks pretty damn cool.
