As this discussion continues to devolve here into the realm of "hair politics," I am closing this thread, and inviting any and all interested in continuing this discussion to take it up in the Hair Politics Forum.

Ha-ROOOMPH! Nothing wrong with that haircut. As Kramer said, she can
pull off any style, especially short.

Here we go again about LOL.

SELF_MUTILATION???  Cutting one's hair is self-mutilation???  Give me a friggin' break.

Not for typographical errors.

So then why does this board exist?  From the start it's always been a place to gossip about celebs, without regard to their feelings.  Cruel, at times?  Maybe so, but that's just the way it is.

Speculation, perhaps best expressed within the "hair politics" forum.  Generally speaking and in my opinion and observation, long and short hairstyles both span a wide spectrum of occupations.

I can't belive how aging that cut has been for her.. I've always thought it was supposed to be the other way around.

I stumbled upon a link to some photos of Ann's glorious past. I post them here not necessarily for comparison purposes, but as a tribute to wonderful days gone by... or something like that.

I haven't been getting involved in this discussion but I'll respond to this.

I think after the circus that this caused and her own feelings that she expressed on being part of the circus I have doubts that she'll grow much. If her hair starts getting even the slightest bit longer someone is going to be asking if she is growing it for another donation. I don't think she wants to do this anytime soon.

As for the cut, I agree that they could have done better.

But as I often say, I could be wrong.

      Gaw-aw-aw-lee, Miss Ann, as Gomer Pyle might say!

     She now looks her age, an attractive 50 year old, instead of the stunning, sensuous 35 she was last week. An absolutely pointless makeover. The chances of me ever intentionally tuning in Today or Dateline again is zero. I must say, though, her magnificent hair was tres enjoyable while it lasted. Blessings, Bob

It's definitly better than the day of cut. I like it not short yet not to long but still a few different things with it. As for longer or shorter  who knows but Ann. I do think she might go a little longer, shoulders possibly but no more than that.

What is MOST important is how Ann likes it...as a busy mom, I'm sure she finds it a lot easier, which is probably why she had it short before she grew it out!

I think it looks nice, and will grow out nicely...

Well, Ann was back on the Today show this morning with her final
style, and I'm sure it will generate some mixed opinions. It's more or
less one length, center parted, goes about to her chin, flat on top and
sort of puffs out on the bottom, so it's sort of shaped like an egg.
There also appear to be some short, random hairs that jut out just
below that along the neck for no reason I can figure.

More than anything, this style is just mystifying to me. After all the
hype and speculation, all the possible options, she seems to have
gone with a style that doesn't look particularly flattering (IMHO), isn't
really trendy (no bangs, no layers), is somewhat plain, and (oy vey)
continues, even at this short length, to encourage her to tuck one
side behind her ear.

I'm already waiting for the next style...
Your hair is your best accessory; wear it with STYLE!

Too true.  Many short cuts tend to age.

Weather Forcast - With high humidity in the air, expect general hair frizziness to continue :-/

I was talking about the after cut. Heck she was makeing Jokes when Kate was cutting it but after she look like she was going to cry. That's all. Now did she have sceond thoughs? I don't know. One thing is for sure most people I know that have gone from long to short don't cry. That's all.

I like retro, but not on her-- she's old enough that it looks more "stuck in a time warp" :-P .  Hopefully she'll do something better with it on her own.  I could personally hope something short (was a bit disappointed it was still long after the cut), but it's Ann's hair, and her decision.  *shrugs*

If she seemed nervous during the cut, it could have something to do with, oh, I dunno, the fact it was being done by an amateur?  And Katie was even more nervous doing it than Ann was letting Katie do it, so that doesn't exactly inspire confidence!
More awesome than a manatee!
