I haven't studied (or seen) her enough to be sure that short hair is the best thing for her. I usually only see her with her hair in a braid. I think only about 10% of females look better with long hair than short hair - I will try to see some pictures of her so I can make a more accurate answer.
Sure thing - I believe Anna would look infinitely more attractive with short hair but, sad to say, I think we have more chance of seeing God than seeing Anna Kournikova cut her hair off short. Maybe in a few years time she might shorten it a bit, but I doubt she'll see sense enough to go short. Crying shame, she'd look really hot.

I disagree with your assessment that she looks "like a baby." Babies have *short* hair, and Anna's is long. Anna is about 18 years removed from being -- and looking -- "like a baby."
I think it's refreshing to see a well-known female athlete with waist-length hair, such as Anna Kournikova. I'm not aware of any others -- not even one -- whose hair is as long as hers.
I had to laugh when you said that you think she "should" abide by your desire "as soon as possible." Why should she care about your wish, much less your timetable for compliance with it?

Gosh, let's stir up controversy. Did you say she looks like a baby, or did you say men say "BABY!" when they see her? I've seen Anna in person at the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit several times. Trust me: she ain't no baby!

The figure was my own personal stat. You can determine that by the way the sentence is stated - "I think..."
Having looked closer at Anna - I would think just about any hairstyle would work on her, in other words, she is rather hot. My personal opinion would be a shoulder length, layered cut with sweeping bangs.

I think Anna's draw IS her hair - it's feminine and luxurious and long. (yeh yeh, I know the male's perspective here, but this is a Female's perspective). It would not look right, just like when that curly-haired girl Kari what's-her-name cut her gorgeous curls off. If Anna had short hair, it wouldn't be the same. She'd still be long-legged and cute, but I personally think she'd look more like a baby with short hair.

I agree with your perspective. One comment though, you wrote "yeh yeh, I know the male's perspective here..." Although most of the men who frequent this board seem to prefer women to have short hair, I doubt that that's the case among the male population at large.

Splash, I don't know if you are a woman or a man, but I can tell you what I think is a real woman's perspective of this topic.
Many of my friends want to wear short hair but don't do it cause they think the guys will don't like it. I used to think the same way till I decided to hear only to myself and choped off my long mane. I have disapointed some guys but not all of them.
Hair, like everything in our bodies, has a sexual role, thus you can't only see the things by a exclusive male or female perspective. Generally speaking, the girls who thinks first in attraction keep their hair long and the ones who think in the pleausure of theirselves cut it short.
Fortunatelly, this question admits many exceptions and gradations from both sides. My boyfriend is miles away from be called a short hair lover, but he loves my short hair and don't want me to let it grow.
Anna Kournikova, like any other woman, have only to follow her heart.

Hal, what an awesome twist. Of course, I'm grinning from ear to ear with the thought of that. I'll tell you this: It would make me start following women's tennis, that's for sure.

I hate to be a name dropper here, but I saw Anna in person with bangs when and I've seen her without bangs and I think bangs really work for her. Statistics show that 8 out of 10 tennis spectators agree with me. I think.
When I first read your message, I didn't understand that what you called a woman's perspective was your own perspective. If I would, I wouldn't make such stupid affirmation "I don't know if you are a woman or a man".
Please forgive me, I was not doubting of you, I was only trying to tell that there are many women perspectives as there are women.
I respect your opinion and hope you respect mine.

I agree she'd look good in just about any style, except maybe a chin length bob, which could make her face look too round. A shoulder length, layered cut with sweeping bangs would look awesome, but it would probably be harder for her to pull it back and play tennis, though. I personally like both very long hair and long-to-short makeovers, so I'd love for her to keep it as is or cut it all off (which we may never see!)
