Is it okay guys braiding their hair or does it look gay?
How does it look to the society? What do you guys think?

I guess it can make you look gay, but it can also make you look like an 8th century barbarian if you're hairy and brutish-looking enough. I honestly think that braids should be reserved for girls only these days, but that's just conservative and backwards me. Of course it's okay - there's not exactly anything wrong with, but the reactions might vary quite a bit.

Plenty of guys braid their hair and it's no big deal here. Be ready to take good care of it

Some guys look really good with it, but it obviously depends on the person.

It's not a big deal mate. Do whatever you want. Society won't tell you what to do.
Plus, i don't know why we must say 'girl, boy stuff etc...' when it comes to hair at least...

I never understood the "long hair is gay" thing. Seems to me like most gay guys have short immaculately kept hair, they don't just let it grow it.

Just look at the band Queen. Freddie Mercury, the only one with short hair was also the only one who was gay.

I've had long hair for nearly 3 years now and have had my fair share of wearing some weird ass hairstyles... even braids; not Edward Elric style (although I got dared to do that by my sister so had to for a picture, haha) but I've worn half braids (hair on the top of your head pulled tight into a braid and the rest kept still... kinda like Thor).

@Interrrrrpetgyu: Haha, I've had to pull a Khal Drogo too for a shot.

Let 'em do what the fuck they want. If a guy wants to have feminine hair, I say go for it, hopefully he takes care of it in the process. Long hair is a difficulty to manage so a braid, ponytail, or updo might actually simplify care. God knows whatever I do with my hair it always ends up back in a fucking knot again, no matter how hard I try. I respect guys who can breach norms of what might be considered to be 'super gay' because they like it.

Why do people think certain things look gay? That mindset is stupid as hell. If a guy wants braids, let him have them. If he wants to wear makeup, let him wear it. It doesn't others in any way.

It looks good on other black people, but I cringe when I see hipsters or hippies with it. That one with the Asians above is also awful.

it looks comical, but it's fun to braid a guy's hair. it's also fun seeing them attempt to do it themselves. watching them struggle. watching them fail. watching them cry. ending this oppressive patriarchy one braid at a time.

I personally prefer guys with short hair.
The ponytails are normal for long hair, but the braiding, I admit, would seem a little girlish.

Black men always have their hair braided or locked when it longed. That race has proved that its manly.

Oh man, this is a topic that gets me so frustrated, lol. I've known so many guys who've confessed to always wanting long hair but were too scared of being ridiculed (and would in turn talk shit about any long-haired guys they came across) and it's just this huge, incredibly stupid cycle. Obviously that isn't the case for everyone, but life is too short, man.

Anyway, if you're asking this question for your own sake, the bottom line is: do it, man. Braid that shit like you've got a date at 7am tomorrow. Can't please everyone, and if you like it, then that should be reason enough to try it out, at the very least.

If only men wouldn't have been conditioned to like generic short haircuts from an early age :/

Everyone uses the excuse that they don't won't to look a weed smoking hippy.

Weeeeeeel, maybe. However it certainly looks much better if you have milder characteristics.

As a woman, not sure if I can answer this but I think guys look good with braids as long as the hair is clean.
