My hair is trimmed only by my husband or my mother. They both have short hair, but they are both committed to keeping my hair long (more committed to it than I am, too!). The real key is finding someone who is willing to make achieving your goal the priority.Good luck!Laura Jane lswanson@sunflower.bio.indiana.edu

You may be able to find a good short-haired stylist to help you grow your hair, however if you find a stylist with long, healthy hair, then I think you have a much better chance that s/he knows about long hair and how to help you grow yours.However... in any case the most important thing to do is to talk to the stylist before you let them touch your hair with the scissors. Do they have many clients with long hair? How long? How much do they consider a "trim"? Do they have any special expertise in long hair or in hair of your texture or ethnicity? And then, only after they've answered all your questions, then tell them what you want for your hair and see what their response is. I always distrust a stylist who trys to "talk you into" something other than what you came for.My stylist has butt length hair... but then I go to a long hair specialist.-jennifer j
paul, I would never go to a stylist that's hair is in bad condition or in a bad style. The LENGTH of their hair is not really important, a GOOD stylist will support your choice and not try to coax you into cutting it. Try to find someone that is open-minded and will make the best of what YOU want in a hairstyle.> The reason I am asking this question is because> I don't have a regular stylist at the moment.> Also, I want to grow my hair!

The reason I am asking this question is because I don't have a regular stylist at the moment. Also, I want to grow my hair! So, in searching around looking for a stylist, and in the absence of recommendations etc, I have started paying particular attention to different stylists - the condition of their hair and length. I was left wondering whether a longer haired stylist would be much more sympathetic and in-tune with helping me achieve my goals than a shorter haired stylist. Now I know this might sound a very bad generalisation to make and of course there are many shorter haired stylists who are excellent hairdressers.. but I wonder if a longer haired one would be supportive and have the knowledge and experience and committment in helping me grow my hair. Also I wonder if I choose a shorter hair stylist.. they probably prefer shorter hair anyway - and may be more likely to talk me into getting a shorter cut in the future despite my current aims. So, at the moment it seems to me that if I choose a longer haired stylist (and I have one in mind who has beautifully conditioned hair) she will in essence know how to treat mine and cut mine right. Of course someone is cutting her hair and probably I should be going to them :-).But what do others think... do you pay attention to your stylists hair condition and length or is that not important to you?Paul
