Cock up?

Lovemusic33 · 29/05/2020 15:58

Hair down if going out, up at home and work. I think I look better with it down but takes me ages to straighten it.

BrandyandBabycham · 29/05/2020 15:58

My hair is fine but as I get older, I think it can be quite ageing having it down. I like it in a high ponytail.

attackedbycritters · 29/05/2020 16:00

Mouth turned up? Yes

Zaphodsotherhead · 29/05/2020 16:00

I have no choice. My hair is very very short. If I grow it long it looks like a wig.

ComDummings · 29/05/2020 16:01

With their top up? Nose up? Arms up?

WillYouDoTheFandango · 29/05/2020 16:01

My hair suits me much better up. I have a dodgy jawline and somehow hair just makes it worse. Lifting my hair up seems to make it much better.

It currently looks totally shit down as it’s grown into that awkward in-between stage.

AngusThermopyle · 29/05/2020 16:01

Hair? Definitely down, used to look great up, now I just look like my mum so yes, definitely down 😂

shrunkenhead · 29/05/2020 16:05

If we're talking hair, then much better down. Most clip it up if it's greasy/not behaving etc so it speaks volumes whichever way it's worn Up= not happy with it Down=check me out!

1forsorrow · 29/05/2020 16:06

@corlan you made me laugh and choke. DH giving me funny looks.

Drivingdownthe101 · 29/05/2020 16:06

Down. I look awful with it up.

Dahlietta · 29/05/2020 16:09

Disappointed this isn’t about Volkswagens.

hellsbellsmelons · 29/05/2020 16:10

Down - always - helps to hide the double chins and jowls!
(I'm not really that bad) but I have lovely curly hair so down works far better.

sussexman · 29/05/2020 16:17

left half up, right half down :)

Newchapter2020 · 29/05/2020 16:18

I definitely look better with hair down, or at least half down. Can't stand the way I look with it up, but it's up most of the time as I can't stand it down a d getting hot Grin

AmICrazyorWhat2 · 29/05/2020 16:22

Mine looks better up as it suits my face shape, it accentuates my eyes and my jaw line.

I'm thinking of having it cut short as it's a pain, but not sure which styles are "in" at the moment...and don't want a bob.

CustardySergeant · 29/05/2020 16:23

Well I've just checked in the mirror and I definitely look best with my left arm and right leg up.

Dunno why.

Hopeisnotastrategy · 29/05/2020 16:24

I’m in Spain and I’m guessing mask. 😷😄

NeutrinoWrangler · 29/05/2020 16:32

It's too much work putting it up in a way that looks nice, imo. I think I look better with it down, anyway.

That said, I live with it tied back 99% of the time, to keep it out of my way and to stay cool. It's not really "done up", though, just pulled back in a quick and easy ponytail.

Picklypickles · 29/05/2020 16:32

Down so I can hide behind it.

DarkDarkNight · 29/05/2020 16:37

Up for me. It slims my face down a bit.

Thurmanmurman · 29/05/2020 16:38

Down. I'm rubbish at doing hair and even a ponytail looks shit

Likethebattle · 29/05/2020 16:40

Down, it looks awful up.

BigChocFrenzy · 29/05/2020 16:41

I always have my hair so short that it's impossible to put up or tie up Grin

It just gets a 3-second brush in the morning and after evening hairwash & shower
In between, it has to look after itself

Mouldiwarp1 · 29/05/2020 16:41

Assuming we’re talking about hair, I think it depends on the hairline and neck. I have no neck and a low hairline (yup, lucky me) and having my hair up just accentuates those faults.
