Alyssa Milano

I like her short hairstyle very much.

She is a lady who can really wear short hair.

I'm glad she's keeping her hair short but I actually liked the pixie style on her a little better, although I would like to see a few more photos of her in her new 'do.

Has anybody seen any recent pictures of Alyssas hair. Hopefully shes keeping it short

No she won't Iceman.
She looks too good in her short pixie!

You know Gord some times you can be very funny. I even laugh when you put my post down some times. You should be a comedien not working at a car wash. Your right that this board is based on our personal opinions, and Bronnie was right two in the fact that we believe so much in our personal preferances that we can't see anying else. I love shorthair and think almost everyone looks great in short hair, You love long hair and think almost every one looks best with long hair, If a celeb cuts her hair you act as if she commited a crime, in Celion Dions case she should be locked up for that horrible hair cut and style. If a celeb who had short hair grows it out I get upset and think she is stupid for growing her hair out even when she may look very sexy with long hair. So you see thats what Bronnie was saying I think. But if we didn't think that way wiould we still come to this board and complain when a celeb did some thing we didn't like or boast when a celeb had a good hair day?

As for Alyssa, she is a very sexy small woman with the perfect face for any style, lenght, cut, or color. As far as being a tramp, well as first I don't hear much about her sex life in the news and second if you looked as good as her would you not use it to your advantage to get what you want or to have fun. Alyssa is a sweet person and a good actress and she gives back to the community by vollunteering at shelters and for other charitable causes. She looked very sexy with long hair, medium lenght, and short hair, as a blonde , burnett, red head, and even with black hair, although it was not a good color for her to wear to often it was just to dark. She is one of the few that can pull off any style well. And now I will copy after Gord and say HAPPY NEW YEAR every one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't pretend to understand the point of the above poster but this thread shows me a lot about how people think.

We all have our preferences and since this is a hair forum, I think it is safe to say that our preferences regarding hair are particularly strong here. Are we so unimaginative that it is inconceivable that others preferences are not the same as our own that we have to make ridiculous statements like "she looked better with ...." as if our opinions are some sort of universal truth?

If we can't even imagine what it would be like to have a hair preference different from our own then it seems pretty hopeless to try to even imagine a world where a straight person could even comprehend what it is like to be gay, a Christian understanding a muslim, a man understanding a woman etc.. In Nairobi it is normal for a woman to shave her head and in Scotalnd it is traditional for men to wear kilts. We aren't all the same.

Thanks. I'll go get my Midol now.

Peace Bronnie

Alyssa not only looks wonderful but I have seen her interviewed and she has a delightful personality.
No she isn't at this point a "serious" actress per se, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have talent, and she's certainly not a tramp.
She makes the show Charmed.

I really don't give a rip about Alyssa Milano one way or another, but she sure looked better with long hair. I figure if there are 20-some entries on this Hair Talk topic, I might as well be one of them. : )

Would you not agree its easier to Find Waldo on a blank page rather than a cluttered one?

shorthair75_2000 wrote: Dave are you saying that these hair stylist are not telling the truth?

No. I'm saying that they're selling an attitude.

shorthair75_2000 wrote: It does not make a girl feel liberated to cut her hair super short, long hair does not hide features, shorthair does not bring out there eyes?

Now you're putting words in my mouth.

shorthair75_2000 wrote: Wow how intresting that you tell us that because I fell for there lies to. I thought it brought out Alyssa eyes and I thought she was Very pretty in short hair,

I have no quibble with the stylist professing his opinion that he finds her attractive/beautiful in the short haircut. The rest of the stuff (quoted before) was pure selling of an attitude.

The long and short pictures of her in the referenced instyle article show just about 100% of her face.

shorthair75_2000 wrote: but if your right she is just a victim of long hair haters, shame on them for cutting Alyssas hair like she wanted and shame one them for saying nice things about it to.

Victim of long hair haters? Hah. More words you wish to put in my mouth.

My post isn't about what Alyssa wanted. I assume she wanted her hair short. It doesn't mean that we aren't entitled to our opinions of the look.

And of course the stylist is going to say nice things about the haircut. Why would he criticize his own doings? duh.

shorthair75_2000 wrote: Not every one looks sexy with super long hair or do everyone want long hair, Just as not everyone looks good in short hair. I love short hair but I don't say that its a waste to have long hair or that they look bad in long hair, its one thing to love long hair but another to say that a hair stylist who has been cutting hair fore a long time and goes to seminars and classes to learn new ways of styling hair does not know what they are talking about.

You seem to have missed the entire point. Do you get it now?

shorthair75_2000 wrote: If theyt said that long hair brought out her eyes and check bones would you agree with him then?

No, I would not. I disagree with that perspective. As I just said, the photos from the instyle article both show all of her face. I have no trouble seeing her eyes and cheekbones extremely well with her hair long. Do you? If so, do you suffer some physical sight impairment?

Kuroneko wrote: Inch-long hair won't hold much in the way of fancy hair clippies and things, but it is good for playing with various hair products, like trying different spiked, tousled, or punkish styles, playing with texture, putting on temporary blue streaks or glitter or whatever, or you could make it femme with scarves, headbands, dainty stick-on or snap-on flowers or jewels. . . there are actually lots of things a creative mind can do with very short hair. But with it getting a little longer, she can use more fancy hairpins and clippies, which is really nice, also. *shrugs* I could list just as many trite myths used to sell women on long hair, like claiming long hair is more feminine (it's not the hair, but the person wearing it that determines if someone looks feminine or masculine), or that long hair is so much more versatile (versatility of any style depends on the creativity and willingness of its wearer to experiment), and of course using long hair to hide flaws, which is really funny, because in its way it's actually offending the client rather than helping her feel better. . . Relax, there's no conspiracy to rid all the women in the world of their hair. It's just people standing on opposite sides of a fence flinging poo in at each other :-P .

I'll grant you that there can be a variety of styles with ultra-short hair, but at the same time will say that I believe longer hair has more versatility yet. No matter, as long as the individual is satisfied with their styling options, that's "all that matters" (at least in regard to that issue).

One of my friends says that long hair enhances the appeal of person, regardless of gender (which to her means that long-haired men are more attractive than short-haired men). So there are a variety of opinions out there.

Funny, I've read the "this haircut helps hide/mask flaws" statement (not often, but I have seen it written).

No worries here about the conspiracy theory you describe... but we all seem to do quite well here at "slingin' the do"...

If you ask me this is stereotyping of the worst sort. Long, long hair = Earthy, hippie, fashion backward Short, short hair = Lesbian, feminist, man hater

Hi Carmichael,

Not the just last decade... last two decades and more... although (in a hopeful note) I sense that the stereotypes aren't nearly as pervasive (though this may be wishful thinking on my part).
