Neil, apologize to Sophia for what I am about to say, you look HAWT!
OMG! What a difference!
Really. The haircut is so you. You are so much more handsome with shorter hair.
(sorry Sophia)
Hubba Hubba.

sopia knew what she was doing afterall.
i’ve always thought you were handsome (i mean, hello!, i don’t let just anyone squeeze my tush). the haircut makes you look like you live in LA.
By sizzle on 07.17.07 6:44 pm
and by sopia i mean sophia.
hi sophia! i miss you!
By sizzle on 07.17.07 6:45 pm
It truly looks great, Neil! DAY-UM.
And thanks for posting this - the thought of my pink robe photo being front and center on your blog was giving me hives.

You look hawt!
By Finn on 07.17.07 6:59 pm
three cheers for hair product! excellent…
By deezee on 07.17.07 7:03 pm
I knew that haircut needed gel. Great work, Sophia!
By Dagny on 07.17.07 7:04 pm
Where did the word “hawt” come from?
By Neil on 07.17.07 7:08 pm
I like the hair! We almost have the same haircut now.
By schmutzie on 07.17.07 7:15 pm
Your hair looks totally swank!!!
By Hilly on 07.17.07 7:32 pm
totally hawt.
wheeeooo!
By Not Fainthearted on 07.17.07 8:04 pm
Look at you with your black tee, you short styled hair and hipster plastic glasses. Rowr! (That’s my, um, untamed large cat impression.)
By charming, but single on 07.17.07 8:15 pm
you short = your short
By charming, but single on 07.17.07 8:16 pm
The hair looks great! (Though you might consider paying for a cut next time.) Also, your ears? Not remarkable at all.
Good for you for trying something new.
By jamy on 07.17.07 8:42 pm
And how much did you spend for that jar of gunk? You could get same result just getting up of a morning LOL
By Michael on 07.17.07 9:21 pm
Nice look.
By helen on 07.17.07 9:29 pm
I think it’s possible that by the end of summer the “Jonathan from All My Children” look will be known as the “Neil from Citizen of the Month” look.
By Iron Fist on 07.17.07 9:34 pm
You are STYLIN Neil!
By Dating Dummy on 07.17.07 9:44 pm
Michael — that is a typical male response. You obviously don’t know anything about the importance of hair gels. They also sell these individual gel strips that you can whip out anytime from your pocket and put on your hair right before you enter the restaurant or bar to wow all the ladies.
Of course, I give myself two days before I stop using any of this. Who wants to waste valuable time putting on gel in the morning when I could be scratching my chest hairs instead?
Iron Fist — are there any shots of your haircut on your blog?
By Neil on 07.17.07 9:46 pm
Wow, hair gel really DOES make a difference. You look fabulous.
Now on to the clothing. Heh.
By margalit on 07.17.07 10:40 pm
No, I’m kind of a weenie about posting photos of myself. Jenny actually has the most current photos of me up on Flickr, two days post haircut.
By Iron Fist on 07.17.07 11:44 pm
Much better! Good product really does make all the difference!!
By Bre on 07.18.07 5:26 am
Looking good Neil!
By Lisa on 07.18.07 5:26 am
What’s next? A goatee?
By brettdl on 07.18.07 5:37 am
Wowzers! Looking good!
(I agree, it does look better with some product than without.)
By Juliness on 07.18.07 5:40 am
What makes that gel reworkable? hotstuff
By Margaret on 07.18.07 5:46 am
The resemblance between you and Jonathan is nothing short of remarkable. I am sure you will be mobbed by screaming female fans every time you leave the house!
By Jennifer on 07.18.07 5:48 am
WOW. You don’t reaaaallly wonder why Sophia lubs you, right?
By deannie on 07.18.07 6:02 am
Hair products to the rescue! It looks great!
By Rhea on 07.18.07 6:37 am
Scratching your chest hair in the morning really is important. You might even be able to style it using the gel. : )
By V-Grrrl on 07.18.07 7:11 am
Boom Chicka Wah-Wah!
By Jenn on 07.18.07 7:27 am
Welcome to the twentieth century…you’re almost ready for the 21st!
Seriously, aren’t you sorry you waited to do this? I agree with the other commenters…you look 1000 per cent better…and…younger, too. Change is good.
By Deven on 07.18.07 7:46 am
I predict spray-on tans in your future.
By brooke on 07.18.07 8:13 am
Yowza. Good thing you didn’t look like that when we punished you in the bathroom. Punishment would have lasted much longer. Kudos to Sophia!
By Mocha on 07.18.07 8:20 am
Darling, you look fabulous!
By Kate on 07.18.07 9:57 am
Hot, hott, hawt.
By Churlita on 07.18.07 10:29 am
Look at that, Neil. A little bit of hair gel and a gaggle of women fall at your feet — um, I mean…fall at the base of the pedestal they’ve put you on.
(Would mousse not have the same visual effect? The couple of times that I tried gel, I found that when it dried, it made my scalp flaky. I’m a mousse girl myself.)
By Pearl on 07.18.07 10:31 am
Pearl — I’m not sure which is better. I think mousse may be too 2001 for me.
The only problem is that when you wake up, you hair is all flat again!
By Neil on 07.18.07 10:35 am
I think you should have Sophia dye your hair too.
By psychomom on 07.18.07 11:36 am
FYI: I believe that Paris H. popularized the term, “Hawt.”
Yes, Neil…hair product makes all the diff. Without it, I’d look like a drowned rat! We already know that Sophia is a genius.
By Ellen Bloom on 07.18.07 11:56 am
ZZZexy!
Now I want to see what you can do with a ceramic flat iron.
By LVGurl on 07.18.07 11:59 am
Quick. Before you get tired of gel,replace your profile photo with one of you with your new hip hairstyle. It looks great.
Do people say “hip” anymore?
By plain jane on 07.18.07 1:17 pm
Neil, you went from boy (2 weeks ago pic) to Man! Nice cut!
By Two Roads on 07.18.07 6:39 pm
marked improvement!!!
By wendy on 07.18.07 8:33 pm
The haircut looks GREAT! And I love the bohemian thing, so I promise it’s true. You look great.
By Long Story Longer on 07.19.07 4:34 am
I think it looks wonderful… It’s very summery. I just went with Tim to get his hair cut short, and it made a world of difference on him. I really like it on you as well, it makes you look youthful…
By Erin on 07.19.07 6:57 am
Wouldnt a crew cut do the same thing?
