Watch: Mark Wahlberg Really Hates Having Long Hair

Mark Wahlberg can never look bad.

At least not in our eyes.

But the actor is so not feeling the long hair he had to grow out for the fifth installment of the Transformers franchise.

"It's very uncomfortable," Wahlberg told m at the Governors Awards. "At least now it's long enough to kind of push it back, but it's painful the hair."

However, his wife Rhea Durham is digging it.

"The crazy thing is my wife likes it," Wahlberg said.

Their kids are another story. "They don't like it," he explained. "My wife put my hair in a ponytail the other day and my son freaked out. He was trying to rip it out of my head. He was like, 'Dad, take that thing out right now!'"

And picture this—Mark Wahlberg with a man bun!

"I was hoping we would get it long enough to at least tie it up and get it off of my face," he said. "I'm not used to it at all."

Transformers: The Last Night is set to be released on June 23, 2017. The Michael Bay-directed flick co-stars Josh Duhamel, Laura Haddock, Anthony Hopkins and Tyrese Gibson.
