⸻
Max Fried:
Max would notice immediately, but he would not react in a huge way right away.
He'd look at you for a second longer than usual, quietly taking in the change before stepping a little closer. Not loud, not dramatic just observant in that very Max way.
"You cut it."
If it was a really dramatic change, he'd probably study your face more than the haircut itself, because that's what would get him most how much more visible you are now.
And if you asked if he liked it, he'd probably make you wait a second just to annoy you.
"Yeah."
A pause.
"You look really pretty."
And because he's Max, that would be the part that actually gets you the fact that he says it so plainly, like it's obvious, while still looking at you like he's more affected than he wants to admit.
He'd probably touch a piece of it once, almost absentmindedly.
"It looks good on you. Really good."
⸻
Ben Rice:
Ben would have one of the most immediately readable reactions.
He'd look up, blink, and his whole face would soften right away.
"Oh, wow."
Not bad wow. Very much good wow.
He'd smile almost instantly and walk closer without even thinking about it.
"You really cut it."
Ben feels like the type to ask before touching it, because he'd want to but he'd still be sweet about it.
"Can I?"
And once his hand is in it, he's done for. Smiling, staring, clearly trying to process how different you look.
"No, you look so pretty."
"Like…really pretty."
If you seemed even a little nervous, he'd reassure you immediately.
"I'm serious. It looks so good."
Then, because he's Ben, he'd immediately care more about whether you feel good in it.
"Do you like it?"
And if you said maybe, he'd just smile and shake his head.
"Well, I love it."
⸻
Jazz Chisholm Jr.:
Jazz would notice, obviously, but not in the way where he's standing there analyzing layers or acting like he suddenly became a hairstylist.
He'd look at you, clock that something changed, and just shrug a little like,
"Oh, you cut it."
If you asked, "Do you like it?" he'd probably look at you like that's a silly question.
"Yeah, you still fine."
Then with a grin, "You think I was about to say no?"
Jazz feels like the type who cares way more about your energy than the hair itself. If you walked in feeling yourself, that's what he'd react to. Not the inches gone.
And if you kept fishing for a bigger reaction, he'd probably laugh and say,
"Baby, it's hair. You still look good."
⸻
Giancarlo Stanton:
Giancarlo would not react loudly, but he'd react.
You'd walk in, he'd look up, and there'd be that pause that extra second where he says nothing because he's taking in the whole picture.
Then he'd stand up.
That's how you'd know it got him.
He'd come closer, touch the ends or the back of your neck, and if it exposed more skin your neck, your shoulders, your collarbone he'd absolutely notice that too.
"That's different."
Which might make you nervous for half a second until he looked at you again and added, lower,
"Looks good on you."
"Real good."
Giancarlo feels like the type to be more affected by the confidence of it than the haircut alone. Like the second you walk in carrying yourself differently, he notices.
"You look sexy."
Very calm. Very direct.
⸻
Anthony Volpe:
Anthony would notice and think you looked good, but he would not be passionately invested in the haircut itself.
"Oh, you cut it."
If you asked, "Do you like it?" he'd say yes right away, but not in a way that sounds like he has strong opinions about the hair specifically.
"Yeah, of course."
"You look pretty."
Anthony feels like the type who would care more about whether you like it than about the haircut itself. So his follow up would probably be: "Do you like it?"
And if you said yes, that would pretty much settle it for him.
He's not the guy who's gonna be obsessed with the chop. He's the guy who's gonna think you're pretty regardless and then move on.
⸻
Jasson Domínguez:
Jasson would be quieter about it at first.
He'd look at you, take a second to figure out what changed, and then that little smile would show up.
"Oh. You cut your hair."
He feels like the type who doesn't always react loudly when he really likes something. Instead, he'd get more focused. More attentive. He'd step closer, touch the ends, glance at your face again, then smile like he already knows you know it looks good.
If you asked, "What?" he'd probably say something annoying and flattering at the same time like,
"You know it looks good."
And if you tried to act unsure, I think he'd get more direct.
"No. It does."
"You look really pretty."
Jasson feels like he'd adjust fast and then act like this version of you makes too much sense for him to even miss the old one.
⸻
Aaron Judge:
Aaron would notice, but he would not make a huge deal out of it.
You'd walk in, he'd take a look, and he'd just go,
"You cut your hair."
Very matter-of-fact.
If you asked whether he liked it, he'd answer honestly, but calmly.
"Yeah. It looks nice."
He's not the type to act like a haircut changed the earth's rotation. Aaron feels more like the type who loves you consistently, so whether your hair is long, short, curled, straight, whatever, his reaction would mostly be "you're still you, and you still look good to me".
If you kept pressing him for more, he'd probably smile a little and say.
"You want a bigger reaction than you're gonna get."
Then kiss your forehead, "You look beautiful. I'm just not dramatic."
⸻
Cody Bellinger:
Cody would make it feel easy.
He'd look up, grin, and go, "Oh, wow."
And you'd know right away it was a good wow.
Cody feels like the type to get up, touch it, smile again, and say exactly what he means without making it weird.
"I like it."
If it was really dramatic, he might laugh a little just because he's surprised by how different it is.
"You look like a whole different person."
Then, because he'd know how that sounded.
"In a good way."
He'd definitely be one of the more casually reassuring ones.
"You look really pretty."
He'd make it feel safe to have done something bold.
⸻
Carlos Rodón:
Carlos would notice, but I don't think he'd care in some huge way.
He'd probably glance at you and go,
"Oh, you cut your hair."
And that would be it at first.
If you asked whether he liked it, he'd be honest, but casual.
"Yeah, it looks good."
Carlos feels more like the type who might joke about how much you cut off or how different it is, but not because he's deeply attached to your hair more because he likes reacting to things.
So if you were expecting him to be all emotional over it, he probably wouldn't be.
He'd just look at you, shrug a little, and say,
"Baby, you always look good. I'm not doing a whole reveal over a haircut."
Then probably kiss you and keep it moving.
⸻
Oswaldo Cabrera:
Oswaldo would react with his whole heart.
You'd walk in and he'd light up immediately.
"Ohhh!"
"You look so pretty!"
Big smile, big energy, immediate hype.
Oswaldo feels like the type who would absolutely want to see it from every angle, would definitely touch it gently, and would gas you up so hard that any nerves you had would disappear within thirty seconds.
If you did something dramatic, he'd love that you did something bold.
"No, I love this."
"You look beautiful."
"So, so pretty."
He'd make you feel like getting the haircut was the best idea you've ever had, and he'd be so sincere about it that you couldn't even roll your eyes properly.
⸻
Amed Rosario:
Amed would be more subtle at first, but not hard to read if you know him.
He'd look at you, pause, and give that small nod like he's taken in the change and made a decision.
"Okay."
Which, from him, would already mean something.
Amed feels like the type to not gush immediately, but to show how much he likes it by staying focused on you a little too long, touching it once, and then saying something simple that lands because he doesn't waste words.
"It looks good."
If you asked him to elaborate, he'd probably give you a look like you were asking for too much and then still do it.
"It really does."
A beat.
"You look good, mami."
That would be more his speed lowkey, confident, direct.
And what would feel most like him is that he'd get more visibly into it later than in the first second. Once the surprise wore off, he'd keep noticing it. Keep touching it. Keep looking at your face a little longer.
⸻
Ryan McMahon:
Ryan would react with dry honesty.
You'd walk in, he'd look up, and after a beat he'd say,
"That's definitely different."
And because Ryan feels like the type to not sugarcoat the surprise factor, you'd probably have to wait a second before he clarified.
Then he'd look at you again and go,
"Looks good, though."
Very straightforward. Very normal about being surprised by a big change.
Ryan feels like the type who wouldn't oversell it, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't mean it. If he kept glancing at you after, or touched the ends while you were talking, that would tell you more than a huge speech would.
And if you teased him for not being dramatic enough, I think he'd just look at you and say,
"What, you want me to lie? You look really good."
Plain, but real.
⸻
Trent Grisham:
Trent would care the least in the most Trent way possible.
He'd look at you, notice it, and go,
"You cut it."
That's it.
If you asked, "Do you like it?" he'd probably give you a look and say,
"I did not have prior attachment to the old one, so yes."
Which is such an annoying answer that you'd have to laugh.
Trent feels like the type who would genuinely not care much about the haircut itself because, to him, it's still your hair and you still look like you. He's not gonna act like it's life-changing.
If you kept pushing for more, he'd probably sigh and give you a real answer just to get you to stop.
"Yes, it looks good."
Then after a beat:
"You look good. The hair is fine."
Which is honestly the most Trent version possible.
⸻
Cam Schlittler:
Cam would be one of the sweetest.
You'd walk in and he'd just stop for a second, smile slowly, and go,
"Whoa."
Not performative. Not dramatic. Just genuinely surprised.
Cam feels like the type to react very sincerely. So if you asked whether he liked it, he wouldn't make you work for the answer.
"Yeah."
"You look really good."
And if you seemed even a little unsure, he'd get even more earnest.
"No, seriously."
"You look really pretty."
"It really looks good on you."
He'd probably ask if you were nervous before you did it, if you liked it, if it felt weird getting used to it because he feels like someone who'd be tuned into whether you were okay, not just whether the haircut was pretty.
And once he got used to it, I think he'd quietly get very into it.
⸻
José Caballero:
José would make it into a full reveal.
You'd walk in and he'd react like he just witnessed a before-and-after transformation in real time.
"Oh my God."
"Wait, wait, wait."
He'd absolutely be loud, dramatic, delighted, probably moving closer immediately to inspect it like this is breaking news.
José feels like the type who'd make you spin, ask why you suddenly look like a totally different person, and hype you up at a volume that makes the whole room aware you got a haircut.
But underneath the performance, he'd genuinely love it.
"No, this is good."
"This is really good."
"You look gorgeous."
And if you laughed at him, he'd just double down.
"What? You do."
"You look sexy too, don't play with me."
He'd make it impossible for you to feel insecure about it for even a second.
⸻
Spencer Jones:
Spencer would have a really sincere reaction.
You'd walk in, he'd look up, and he'd pause for just a second too long not because anything is wrong, but because he's genuinely thrown off by how different you look.
Then he'd smile.
"Whoa."
That would probably come out before anything else.
Spencer feels like the type to be a little stunned at first and then very straightforward once you asked what he thought. Not overly slick, not too dramatic, not trying to tease you just for the sake of it.
"You really changed it."
He'd probably step closer, look at it properly, maybe brush a piece back or touch the ends carefully, still taking it in.
And if you asked whether he liked it, I don't think he'd hesitate long.
"Yeah."
"You look really good."
If you were nervous, he'd pick up on that fast and get even softer about it.
"No, seriously."
"You look amazing."
"Really pretty."
He'd be more quietly affected than loud about it, but you'd absolutely be able to tell he was very into it.
