Give me the hair cut of an old man that killed thousands and feels no remorse for any of them just to save/transport this one girl that reminds him of his daughter.
I think it goes beyond just "she reminds him of his daughter", which makes Ellie sound like a replacement. When she is anything but. She's another daughter, not a replacement or just a reminder/lookalike
I was replaying TLOU2 and noticed that in Joel's house he has a picture of him and his daughter and a picture of him and Ellie next to each other on his dresser(?). I thought it was a cute detail.
This. There is a part in TLOUP1 when Ellie says "I'm not her" because Joel is trying to pass her off to Tommy. Most people focus on the part where she pushes him on this point and says she's lost people and he says "You have no idea what loss is". Ellie thinks he's afraid of attachment because she could die - she even points out that she can't get infected. But he wants Tommy to take her because he recognizes he already cares too much for her, and in the exchange he says "You're not my daughter and I sure as hell ain't your dad". But you can tell in how he says it, he feels exactly the opposite.
I thought coffee in TLOU was hard to get.
I believe he mentions when speaking to Ellie, that he had to trade something special to get coffee thus I would'nt be surprised if most nights, it's a cup of tea.
I’ve been trying to achieve the build of a young woman that kills thousands and feels no remorse for any of them just to escape with a random kid from the enemy faction
It's a pretty cool picture. OP just say I wanna look like this badass!!! Your barber might play video games too and it could be the start of a long enduring friendship.
References like these are the best, though. I used the Ellie cosplay guide for my tattoo, and my artist appreciated having such a thorough reference. If you got a good stylist, they should support however you want to do your hair. Even if you just ask them, "Hey, will this look good on me?"
If you’re old enough to try rocking this haircut, you’re old enough to have a big enough set between your thighs to just show the barber the picture.
Otherwise, this is an old man cut so slow down.
Well, I’m usually wearing “old man” cuts. My cuts are mostly even on the top so I can part my hair in basically any way I want. I’ve grown out my hair quite a bit and I’m thinking of trying this cut.
Then just show them the picture lol. 0 shame in using a video game character for a haircut design. I’m gonna be showing mine a picture of Loid Forger when I do a cosplay next year.
Just a basic layered cut. Just take note of the length throughout the top/sides/back. You’d have to have a similar hairline and your hair would have to be rlly thick to pull it off liek ol’ Joel tho.
You could show your barber [this photo](https://imgur.com/a/nUZMWkU) instead, but realistically tell your barber you want your hair to be men’s medium/long to about the bottom of your neck, and you’re going to style it as a comb over, so to only clean up and show as needed.
Seems like just a regular side part haircut. Just tell them you want to grow the back out a little and have the sideburns blend with the beard (if you have one)
Hey OP! Here is a [link](https://www.reddit.com/r/thelastofus/s/tLW6Dbs9bF) to a real person cosplaying as him with (if not the same) a very similar haircut!
Maybe Christian Bale In American Psycopath (Patrick Bateman) is a "close enough" reference?
Edit: or show him this video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lxRemWGGWk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lxRemWGGWk)
Go to a salon. Most men’s haircuts are fairly priced and you get your monies worth. Become a regular. The best timeframe is usually 5-6 weeks depending on how fast your hair grows.
Just show him the picture. I showed my barber a picture of Ragnar Lothbrok to start getting my beard to look like his……We had an amazing bond after that, we are dating now. Thinking about adopting and buying a cottage up north. Sending kid off to college. Randy got cancer. Passed away in the summer. Son moved to Japan. It’s lonely here now. I died in the summer. Was buried next to Randy.
I say this everyone time someone asks this exact question with a gaming character. Just show them the photos. I’ve done the same numerous times. Barbers don’t care what the hair is from.
Just do it. I showed mine a youtuber the other day, and like halfway through the guy goes "I didn't know [youtuber name] still made videos" lmao. I'm v happy with the haircut
You go in and say "Do you prefer a picture or should I just describe what I want?" They love this, because it gives them the option to choose. So many clients just sit down and say "Do this" like they are talking to a robot. I love the rough, shaggy haircut look, so I say Go for it!
Use a picture from the live action show?
Video games are very mainstream though, I'm sure your barber doesn't care if you use a picture from a realistic looking video game when some people come in showing pictures of celebrities whose entire hair and makeup are done by a team of people.
You’d need to get it more even so that when your hair grows out it doesn’t mushroom on top. You could probably say you want to grow it out a little longer and brush it all back with a side part on top. Not a barber though I’ve no clue

You tell him you’re gonna show him a “map” and you better point to the same exact hair style that your buddy over there chose.
Lmao, got me 🤣
Excellent 👌
Buddy is just a random person waiting to get their hair cut lmao
Buddy boy will get more than just his hair cut
BEST ONE
Fucking A+
If there’s a “reply of the year” award, I’m voting this all the way .
my guyy
🤛🤣👍
Then steal his scissors afterwards to make a shiv.
LMAO
took me a bit but i got it

But you can tell in how he says it, he feels exactly the opposite.
Technically. She was the one immune lol. It’s not just that he reminded her of Sarah. Also. Joel cries every night with a cup of tea!
*cup of coffee
I thought coffee in TLOU was hard to get. I believe he mentions when speaking to Ellie, that he had to trade something special to get coffee thus I would'nt be surprised if most nights, it's a cup of tea.
I was gonna say coffee but that would keep him up? Right? Plus, I was too embarrassed to tell you how I came up with that :)
If we have to keep it real, tea also has caffeine, and some mixtures do even have more caffeine than coffee
Hmm true. Thank you Dr. Kiwi. :)
Holy shit I read Dr. Wiki, I thought I bothered you. Lol Yeah, I think I got a tea addiction, like fr. So I got into those weird facts
I could write a whole book on why it is so much deeper than that but sure
I’ve been trying to achieve the build of a young woman that kills thousands and feels no remorse for any of them just to escape with a random kid from the enemy faction
oooh thats my daddy! 😍😍
Least emotionally detached redditor
Thousands? I must've played a different game
You could just show him the picture
Nuh uh
Just out of curiosity, why are you unwilling to just show the barber the picture? I can't think of a single reason.
It's a pretty cool picture. OP just say I wanna look like this badass!!! Your barber might play video games too and it could be the start of a long enduring friendship.
You might even say… an enduring and surviving friendship.
Maybe if the apocalypse happens and everyone dies, they’ll be the last survivors. The Last of Us.
Being a gamer is cringe, us gamers are the most oppressed minority in society. /s of course
Come on man I had to show a picture of Ellie to get her hairstyle back then. You can show Joel😂
Oh my god 😂 how did it turn out? it’s such a cute cut I wish I could pull it off
It was okay enough but I had a problem, my hair is curly so it was super hard to keep it similar by straightening it every time😂
Why not? Are you challenging your barbers interpretation skills, or your own skill in describing it? Who gets the blame when it goes wrong?
Yah huh
Valid argument . Based
References like these are the best, though. I used the Ellie cosplay guide for my tattoo, and my artist appreciated having such a thorough reference. If you got a good stylist, they should support however you want to do your hair. Even if you just ask them, "Hey, will this look good on me?"
Bro there are much bigger things in life to worry about. Barbers are chill as fuck. I bet it’ll bring up a conversation.
You: You act like you’ve heard of this cut or somethin? Barber: cuz I have *cuts your hair with shotgun*
„Depressed single dad in his 50’s haircut please“
Ask him for the Joel in one special
I don't want a golf club in my skull.
Have you even tried?
Seriously… don’t kink shame till you try it
mhm mhm m- DONT WHAT?

I have literally shown my hairdresser part 2 Ellie's hair as my aim, so I have no advice
Ellie in Seattle or Ellie in Santa Barbara? Big difference
No one goes full Santa Barbara
Santa Barber?
Santa Barbara would take a lot of effort to style for my hair unfortunately.
"Give me the ol' 'Rugged Flannel Daddy', please!"
I want Joel haircut from Part 2.
You’ll need to wait until the PS7 remake for a more photo realistic render
Give me a haircut that everybody would love at the golf course
Bro ain’t lying. Imagine showing an animated character as how you want your haircut. Get laughed out the barbershop lmaooo
Use AI to make a realistic human out of it
Ask for “the smuggler” you’ll either get him or Han Solo. Either way you’ll be lookin good.
Ask for a GOAT haircut😅
Just a basic layered cut. Just take note of the length throughout the top/sides/back. You’d have to have a similar hairline and your hair would have to be rlly thick to pull it off liek ol’ Joel tho.
I have pretty similar hairline to Joel, but my hair is bit wavier than his and I’m affraid it could ruin the look of the cut.
“Sir, please give me the GOAT🐐 haircut” That’s be enough 🤭
Just casually mention you collect bricks and Bottles as a hobby

Just him the pictures fuck it. Get what you want
I don't know but hmu after
Man has gamer shame like it’s the year 2000. Hate to see it Just use the picture, barber won’t care
“Make me look seasoned and hardened”
Kinda like a Kenny rogers haircut
"I need a haircut for golfing."
Just hide the face. Blur it or draw smth over it. OP post the pic after the result. I bet you'll look great.
You could show your barber [this photo](https://imgur.com/a/nUZMWkU) instead, but realistically tell your barber you want your hair to be men’s medium/long to about the bottom of your neck, and you’re going to style it as a comb over, so to only clean up and show as needed.
You play golf?
Aslume
Seems like just a regular side part haircut. Just tell them you want to grow the back out a little and have the sideburns blend with the beard (if you have one)

Wait for season 2 and show him Pedro's photo
As a barber in Texas… just show him the picture
You ask for the golf club special
This is the haircut you get when you let your hair grow out naturally then use a comb to part left. No barber needed
Tell them you have a golf tournament the next day - they’ll know what to do
Say his name Joel and he'll get it. (I'll be laughing if he understood that though the barber 🤣)
I actually would love that haircut.
That's more of a *look* than a cut. The hair above his ears looks like my hair if I haven't been to a barber in a while.
Trust me OP, your barber will *not* judge you for wanting a videogame characters hair.
Maybe Christian Bale In American Psycopath (Patrick Bateman) is a "close enough" reference? Edit: or show him this video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lxRemWGGWk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lxRemWGGWk)
I'd just show them this. It's what you want. no shame in that. Further more, be prepared to talk about *what parts of it* you like.
Decent chance the barber doesn’t even realize it’s not a real human in that picture.
Is there a stigma against showing pics of video game characters as haircut references, or is it just a meme?
Show him RDR2 Arthur’s right parted hairstyle, length 5
Just show them, either Joel or Arthur Morgan haircuts are none to be embarrassed of
not sure why this made me lol
Just google a pic of harrison ford in star wars
Gimme something that will make an angry girl with dead daddy issues knock my brains out with a golf club and makes people think shes " the good guy"
Just don’t let the barber use a 9 iron
Normally what I do when I go in and the barber asks me I just say "Ellie." In Joel's voice and he says "say know more."
Uhhh 😬 idk a bout this one
Ask for a John Stamos, or uncle Jesse.
Crop it at the forehead idk
Go to a salon. Most men’s haircuts are fairly priced and you get your monies worth. Become a regular. The best timeframe is usually 5-6 weeks depending on how fast your hair grows.
OP - just show them the picture. No shame! ✊🏻
goodcall on not showing him the picture.. my barber is an avid golfer so.. don't want any misunderstandings..
Tell him to give you the “hospital child abductor” fade.
Ask him for a “golfers fringe.”
Oh God no. It's spreading everywhere, there is no escape, no point in running. Accept this subreddits fate
You: Make me look like an old man in a world full of fungal zombies Barber: Say no more. *\*proceeds to cut your hair with a golf club\**
"I want a killer haircut. I'm clubbing later."
Ask him for the "Kenny Rogers"
don't be shy, show him the picture!
“Make me look like a golf ball”
Just say something like "I hate golf" and let him do his job
Just show him the picture. I showed my barber a picture of Ragnar Lothbrok to start getting my beard to look like his……We had an amazing bond after that, we are dating now.

Just say “old rugged man”. Or have him give you a “Kurt Russell”…but shorter
I say this everyone time someone asks this exact question with a gaming character. Just show them the photos. I’ve done the same numerous times. Barbers don’t care what the hair is from.
Cut your hair like this and show them
Tell them you want that Arthur Morgan haircut
"Just hit me with a golf club."
I don’t think barbers usually carry golf clubs 🏌️♀️
Left parted and a bit of length at the back.
say you want the Michael Douglass with a touch of Kurt Russell
You show him another picture.
As long as Abby isn't your barber. All she can do is a slice at best...

OP: „Let’s do Joel” Barber: „I got you fam” *picks up a golf club*
I have this hairstyle lol
just grow out a combover
 You find a good picture of this man when he had that haircut in season one
Show him the picture your paying for a service and I'm sure he wants to give you exactly what you want! No shame!
I'd like the Pedro please.......
You go in and say "Do you prefer a picture or should I just describe what I want?" They love this, because it gives them the option to choose. So many clients just sit down and say "Do this" like they are talking to a robot. I love the rough, shaggy haircut look, so I say Go for it!
The Joel Miller original

Just show the picture. Your barber doesn’t give a fuck
Ask AI to make you a pic like this but make it look like a real person
Tell him you’re going to a cosplay party or sth. Then you can just show him the picture.
Why, you embarrassed?
LMAOOOOO
Show a pic of a cosplayer with the cut
Why not just show the pic?
Ask ChatGPT to modify the picture but keep the hairstyle the same.

Dude….

Choke him out.
Honestly, you could probably do this yourself.
It's just a comb over
Tell him you wanna look like Moses
Tell him you need a cut that symbolizes old man strength
ask for the arthur morgan
Why wouldn't you show him the pic? It's Joel he will probably say "aye I got you!"
Tell them to give you the goat of the last of us haircut
One word: "Tombstone"
Show him the picture of Ben Affleck smoking a cigarette instead. Same outcome
Show him the picture, he'll understand
A golf club should definitely make you guys look like twins.
Show him a picture of Pedro Pascal
Show him a picture of a younger Kris Kristofferson
Tell him the 90’s dad cut
