Looks like you're trying to evolve feathers. If you can find someone with similar hair and have children, humanity could go interesting places.

The shame of my lie has come to haunt me

u/Dripping-Lips 17h ago

These are baseless accusations!

u/joonaspaakko 3h ago

Speaking of haunting, do you feel more like your normal self now that that thing is out?

u/vixphilia 15h ago

Yes, but hair today, gone tomorrow.

That's not a hair. This was your 5G antenna.

u/drhoduk 14h ago

this is the reason I keep shaving clean all over my body. don't want no government track me

13

u/ccbur1 14h ago

My body decided to do this on its own. At least on the head. I guess this is some form of natural selection!

I’ve heard of split ends but not split beginnings

u/fadedhumanontheedge 15h ago

You got split hair on your split hair on your split hair on your split hair. Maybe more.

u/soHard_why 15h ago edited 4h ago

Finally, that one episode where Batman finds a hair makes sense!

Edit: man, thanks for the award, first one ever!

u/StrangerFeelings 15h ago

It looks exactly the same!

And you really thought you could upload a photo of a tree branch and we wouldn't notice.

u/skawn 20h ago

When a hair splits but is thick enough to split a few more times it seems.

Nah, that's a ribbon worm proboscis

u/maniacalmustacheride 17h ago

It looks like you had multiple hairs growing out of one follicle, and some of the pieces broke off but continued being together at the root, grew, snapped, repeat

27

u/katikaboom 13h ago

Finally a comment that speculates on the cause and doesn't just make a joke

10

u/SimmeringGiblets 11h ago

I was going to say that I had pili multigemini in my beard and while I didn't ever grow it out to get that long, the fused hairs aren't really forged as much as smooshed and held together through physical force and will separate back into their bits when rolled between the fingers. I never got them in my scalp but occasionally i think one of my eyebrow follicles will split one out.

u/altagato 15h ago

Is this like the stuck together spaghetti?

2

u/maniacalmustacheride 4h ago

Essentially, yes

u/tsunami141 9h ago

Have you checked recently to see if the entirety of your hair is just a clump of harvestmen?

u/DesiresQuiet 7h ago

Horror thought right there.

u/onedestiny 14h ago

You need a haircut, baaaaaaaaaaad

u/waspysix 13h ago

As a guy with short hair I get these whenever I let it grow to medium length

12

u/quartzquandary 11h ago

When growing your hair out, a big part of the process is regularly trimming it to prevent split ends like this!

2

u/ProffesionalCow 11h ago

How regular are we talking

2

u/quartzquandary 7h ago

If it's fairly short to begin with, once a month. The longer it is, the less often you need to trim it.

u/soucey 18h ago

It’s time for a cut and a conditioning mask

25

u/ItsSansom 16h ago

Biblically accurate hair

u/model-citizen95 19h ago

From what part of your body, if you don’t mind me asking?

Left eye

u/fromsticksandmud 15h ago

You're developing feathers?!

u/daronjay 19h ago

That hair didn’t just split, it’s gone critical

4

u/urbanmark 19h ago

That’s just a neural implant. They fall out of your ear. When they are replaced.

u/Ho3n3r 17h ago

Stick bug.

u/wtfbenlol 16h ago

I see the golden ratio lol

12

u/ExclusiveAnd 12h ago

I’m like 79% sure that’s actually some kind of plant material.

Do you have hanging planters with a fluffy potting mix your head could have bumped?

1

u/dragonfly_centaur 6h ago

Or a feather from laying on a pillow? Missing a lot of feather strand thingies?

Your split ends split ends split ends split ends split ends got split ends

2

u/NUMBerONEisFIRST 9h ago

There are different kinds of split ends.

Not sure what type this is.

2

u/ratchetcoutoure 7h ago

They swing both 6 ways

u/Rachymoo 7h ago

This makes me feel better about any split ends I have.

u/DavThoma 7h ago

I sometimes get these in my beard and they are so satisfying to pull ouf

1

u/cornixt 6h ago

I sometimes get weird hairs like that in my beard. I also get super thick hairs, mutant white ones. I looked it up a while ago and apparently it is part of alopecia barbosa and no one knows exactly why it happens. Your own body attacks the hair follicles and it produces weird hairs. Mine comes and goes, never really noticeable to anyone but me.

u/Deep_Helicopter4591 2h ago

Split ends in 6 regions? Are you a fractal?

 Your hair is not healthy

Split ends? split every-wheres.

u/Nab-Taste 10h ago

I pulled one out of my neck like this one time. It was always a thicker hair than the others and I got tired of it and pulled it. It looked identical to this.

u/abinarysolo 9h ago

Backrooms hair.

u/chmerkovskiysandwich 8h ago

One of mine recently with a feathered out split end. Weird

u/JuicySpark 20h ago

There has to be a root cause to this.

u/Sweet-Competition-15 17h ago

It's just trying to branch out in a new direction!

u/freeluna 9h ago

That’s a walking hair insect, much like the more well known walking stick insect. The walking hair insect clings to your hair and feeds on your scalp’s sebum and skin flakes. It’s completely harmless unless backed into a corner.
