How short is it now?

Ive been SERIOUSLY contemplating getting a hair cut(my hair is around my mid/lower back).I think short hair and tight pants looks unnatractive,but what do I know,I'm a guy!(man...no...I mean no men!)

I'll be 20 in april and will be going to college within the a year(hopefully).I have to make the transition from 'death metal recluse with depression/panic disorder on ssi' to 'sharp outgoing cool college guy' sooner or later...unless my image of 'successful college guy with a life ahead of him' is warped.

Help me out here!
