This is something I've started wondering about. After 17 years of living in the military I cannot stand my hair getting longer than about 1/4". I always see the photos of the long hair thru-hiker and cringe at the thought of my hair feeling like that - not that I have a problem with anyone wearing long hair, I just hate the fealing of too much hair on my head.
On section hikes it isn't abig deal because I can get a haircut when I leave the trail, but I'm beggingin to wonder about a thru-hike. For the thru hikers that like to keep short hair (if any) how did you do it? What is your plan?
