Charlize Theron

Hello all --

I check out this board occasionally for any JF news about a return of Celebrity Hair Spray, but felt compelled to respond to this thread. I am a short hair lover myself, and although I have worn my hair every which way you can imagine (from very short crew cut to mid-back) I always end up back with my short crop. Usually, I just start to crave the lightness and ease of short hair again, and go chop it off. I've always found plenty of people who prefer short to long, and plenty of people who just don't understand WHY I would cut off my hair. To each his or her own, but for me it's so much easier to care for and so much more fun. I just chopped off a long bob a few weeks ago, in fact (summer is usually when I get "the urge" to go short).

Thanks!

Cyn

I was gone for a couple of days and was pleasantly suprised at the responses. There are more short hair lovers than I thought. I have always liked short hair on women - I can remember back to middle school and the girl I had a crush on - you guessed it - she was about the only one with short hair at that time (70's). When I met my wife she had hair down to her waist - so it is just not the hair for me. Guess what - my wife now sports a short crop and I love it!! I'll probably will hear about this but I did encourage her to cut her hair. (She doesn't want to go back to long hair now)

Hey folks i have just a few comments on the subject,

First: I saw the awards show and I thought that Charlize Looked the best she ever has..over all I tend to like females with shorter hair..I don't think this way just to go against the social norm or anything I just think most women with shorter hair usually keep it well trimmed and the style itself in shape! Also since it is shorter it retains the damaged hair a shorter time so it is USUALLY in better condition..Not all women look right in short hair, it all depends on the person. I also like the "I know I'm sexy" kinda attitude that a female exudes when she is comfortable with herself and many of the shorter haired women are just that! I have many many more reasons that it works for me but i better not try and state them all now..

Second: People lets all just try and not be so negative with each other and let everyone speak whatever they want!Lets not forget that it is just a message board on the internet put here for the enjoyment of all..so come on lets just have fun with this! Thanx for hearin' me out! -b =o)

First, to Jes, thank you for your clarification about the "go short" message -- I couldn't tell that it was a "rah-rah" type of blurb. And though I took no offense, I appreciate your concern in that regard.

I have no issue with differing preferences. But I know that JerkyFlea likes to keep this board as "politics-free" as possible, and statements such as arch94's "Everyone else needs to surrender their locks to the scissors" sure reads to me like a politically-charged statement that would be more suited to the "Hair Politics" discussion board.

I like long hair better on Charlize myself...but I can definitely see why some like her short cut.

A question short hair fans:
Just curious...have you guys always liked shorter hair on women? Or is it because it's a change from the long, especially long and grungy look that was popular for awhile?

Nicely put Arch!! I agree!

To DaveDecker and anyone else that might of been offended,
I went back and read my statement and still think that more is being read into it than was meant to be. Of course, the statement about how she looks is my opinion - it came from me - I remember writing it.... I knew not everyone would agree with my statement - I think that is always assumed when someone posts a message. I guess I could of written "in my opinion" but to me that is obvious....
As for "go short" that was a clerical error - it should of read "go short hair" to affirm my admiration for short hair - not to imply people have to do it.
Is there anyone else in this group that likes short hair on women? Or am I on my own?

Anyone who saw the awards show on Fox (blockbuster) knows that Charlize looks great in short hair!!! go short!!
