My Advice Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 How many females on here would say they run their hands through their hair when they see an attractive male looking at them? How many of you twirl your hair when talking to someone you are interested? Perhaps you are just uncomfortable with someone checking you out? Do you use it as a method of flirting? These are what a lot of dating books claim but I am dubious. Would you say it is a sign? Do you do it for other reasons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nixee Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Some women tousel and twirl on a seemingly constant basis. In my mind, they're just out there flirting with the whole damn world. Wait wait wait.... hold the phone! *I* am one of those women... I've done this pretty much since I first grew hair, and I have pretty long hair... but I've never viewed it as a flirting thing... more like a compulsive/spazzy/nervous/can't-help-it habit. .... Kinda starting to get freaked out about how guys view it now though haha... never even thought about it. Its just something I do automatically.

KiCkiT Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 for me, I just cant stand when my hair is messy...so i'm constantly touching it and fixing it and making sure its in place. I never really do it to flirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lionel Hutz Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 for me, I just cant stand when my hair is messy...so i'm constantly touching it and fixing it and making sure its in place. I never really do it to flirt OR DO YOU!? (suspense music) Your hair(article one), can be used to attract guys (article two). If you say that you fix it to make sure it is in place; article one being a mess would look unattractive, deeming article two unattainable (article two must be *cute; thereforee article one may be of acceptance from a non cute article two) In short; When article one is put in place and prepared, it is to attract an uncertain number of article two, and if our focus were to straighten or prep; and not limited to running of fingers, you may indirectly make sure your hair is in place to attract the guy and what we have here is flirting. VOILA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsallgrand Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Some women tousel and twirl on a seemingly constant basis. In my mind, they're just out there flirting with the whole damn world. LOL. Yuppers. Used to do that all the time. And guess what? I was flirting with the whole damn world. OFF in my own damn world. lol. Playing with your hair is the equivalent of a man sticking out his chest and standing square at you- yeah, it has some truth to it, it's a basic courtship dance move. But if you are going to be analyzing every woman who plays with her hair when around you, you are going to be dancing all over the place...thrown off the dance floor a lot more than not. lol.

JadedStar Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I am constantly touching my hair, has nothing to do with flirting. Just making sure it is fluffed and in place. I also do it in a room full of only women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rising Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 The correct answer is Yes... and No. I was watching 2 guys and 2 girls on the bus the other day. The more handsome and confident guy was talking to the prettier and more confident girl. The body language was telling the whole story. The guy had a very relaxed pose, leaning back into the seat with his leg up and accross the way and his foot rested right next to the girls leg. They kept eye contact and smiled back and forth. The other two 'shy' counterparts made very little eye contact, though the shy girl was paying more attention to the confident guy. She wasn't getting direct attention from him but wouldn't ya know it... toyed with her hair all the while, smiling as the two of them talked. The interesting part is that, once the talkative pair left the other two behind, the hair twirling stopped and though they tried to have a conversation it sort of dwindled into nothing. So yeah, when a girl notices she is being noticed she will often times pull her hair over her ear, mess with her bangs, or just run her fingers through it. Guys and girls kind of make the same hair moves or adjust clothing when they know they are being 'sized up'. On the other side though, people sometimes just do it out of habit and not because they are attracted to the person noticing them. People are image conscious and make sure everything is where it's supposed to be. This might be disheartening to a lot of people who think they are the hottest thing on two feet... but a good portion of the time when people walk by they adjust their hair/clothes because they are being looked at... not because of your hotness factor. Go go reflexive body language! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Advice Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 Is it appropriate to tug and twirl my nose hair (I am a quarter Italian) when talking to an attractive woman? Does it get them hot? Do they notice it and think of a manly man with a large penis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBV Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I never play with my hair if there's a guy I like. However, this evening I was working on my computer and I was twirling my hair. Does that mean I like my computer!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dtar Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Haha, I read those dating books, and after that I've paid more attention to girls who touch their hair! It's still up in the air to me as to whether they are fidgeting, flirting, or channeling an increased surge in energy that comes from the unknown. Like for example, yesterday, I entered a rare packed train in midday, and there was a set of four seats with only one person sitting there - a bleached-blonde girl. Actually, the train was filled with school girls as well, so for once, I was a rare male in the train. Once I sat there, I started studying my notes. And sure enough, from the corners of my eyes, I noticed after a few moments that the girl was stroking her hair! I don't think it was flirting, but either there was a slight surge in interest in her thus far run-of-the-mill boring train ride, or there was enough comfort there to be playing with her hair [which means she wasn't freaked out by me! Whoo to not being a freak - haha I jest]. I see it all the time, and I wish the accusations of flirting or something similar were true, and it kind of makes me feel more comfortable around the girl. It even kind of gives me more confidence for me to try and give it a shot one day and ask a girl out - for average guys like me, we don't get much signs of interest [or we are oblivious to it], so it kind of affirms that girls are the same as us, looking for a connection. So girls, the next time you feel compelled to touch you hair when you see a guy, I say go for it! Its vague enough to not mean much, but different enough to perhaps get a guys attention! Don't force it though .... that'd be kind of awkward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
