By the same token, then, I'm certain you would just as vigorously defend the concept that women whom you think look great with perpetually short hair would look even better if they grew their hair long. Am I understanding you correctly?
What? I never said any thing of the sort. What I did say in not so many words is some times you just need to keep an open mind and you may not be disappointed.
I mentioned this some time ago in this forum... a year or two ago I saw a TV interview of Halle Berry, she was wearing a shoulder-length wig which made her look incredible. Yes, much better than with short hair.
As for your question, Charlize Theron is a good example of your question. She looked so hot with short hair, just about everyone loved her short hair.
"Just about everyone"? Among what subset of the populace? This board?? A very skewed sample, here. You might be able to say "just about everyone who posted here" felt a certain way, but I doubt that this board is fairly representative of the population as a whole.

She is the type of girl that is always changing her look. That mades her a hottie. Never the same old look.
A woman I know (not a celebrity) who has long, long hair is always changing her look (wide variety of up-do's and down-do's). Never the same old look. And she is, as you put it, a "hottie."
I agree with JF. Those are nice pics. She did have some nice long hair. She was very sexy with the long hair and still is sexy with the short hair. Why does everyone like her with short hair? Simple she looks so damm good with the short hair, its not butch or boyish and it flatters her well. Not every woman can pull of such a short style but Alyssa can.

There is one thing I find very strange. When a woman cuts her hair that short, usually there are two kinds of opinions : ones that say that it is the best thing to do, that it's sexy, that every girl should try it etc., an the others say that it is to masculine, that girls should have longer hair to look sexy etc.
In the case of Alyssa Milano almost everybody agreed that it was a good move...What is so special about Alyssa Milano, or her short hairstyle, that almost everybody agrees that it looks great?
Well, you actually make two different points: 1) That the new cut looks great and 2) That everyone agrees it was a good move. Two completely different things. It's like agreeing that a house looks good blue, even though you thought it looked good or better green.
In Alyssa's case, I can recognize that she does indeed pull of the short cut well, having the features, figure, and attitude to make it work. However, that doesn't change the fact that I thought the style she had at the beginning of the season a couple of years ago was much more flattering:
So, do I agree that it looks good? Can't deny that it is cute on her. Do I think it was a good move? Also can't deny that I think she looks even better in the links that I posted.

In the case of Alyssa Milano almost everybody agreed that it was a good move. I wonder why was that the case? Me, personaly, agree with the fact that she looks great, and that it was a great move, but I taught that way in many cases before, for a lot brave ladies who chopped their manes, and there was always the other side of population strongly oposing my opinion. What is so special about Alyssa Milano, or her short hairstyle, that almost everybody agrees that it looks great?

As for your question, Charlize Theron is a good example of your question. She looked so hot with short hair, just about everyone loved her short hair. Now she grew it out and i still think she is sexy, just don't care much for her new style, but still find her sexy. Jennifer love Hewitt looked very sexy with long hair, and I find her even sexier with the shorter hair.
Mandy Moore looked very sexy with the short hair and with the hair extensions she has now she looks very hot.

(Sorry about the blank post above... my pudgy fingers hit the wrong key)
Anybody who thinks Alyssa Milano looks boyish needs an appointment to get his/her eyes checked. Dislike short hair all you like, in my opinion, the woman smolders. She is flat out gorgeous, the short hair brings out her features and she has a cool personality.
What's not to like?
What's to find boyish?
Peace to all

To me, her short style looks so good on her I don't know how people could not find her attractive! Women like her are so beautiful they would look good in just about any hairstyle.
I like her acting in CHARMED too! I just like her.

*In my opinion Alyssa Milano looked very pretty with long hair but looks even better with her new short hair style. *But really, it is just a matter of personal preference. *As far as short hair being boyish, or long hair being girlish, people haven't thought like that for probably 30 years in the Western world.* Alyssa's hair cut isn't boyish, it's a cute feminine short style on her, just as long haired men like Dave don't have girlish hair, they simply have long hair.

Alyssa's haircut is boyish. That doesn't mean it isn't incredibly sexy. We long ago broke out of the mold that said women have to have hair a certain length to look good. With a face as pretty as hers, short hair makes her look more beautiful.
Not that she didn't look great in long hair.
I don't see Holly in short hair. She is petite, but her long hair looks great on her. IMO, it's looked better as it's gotten longer. I respect, even encourage, a woman's right to experiment with her hair as Alyssa does, but Holly looks way too good with long hair.
If Alyssa had never cut her hair short and it was super long like Hollys and some one said she would look good with short hair would you still have the smae mind set about Alyssa in short hair? Or would you think nah she would look bad in short hair like you do and many others do about Holly? If Mandy Moore had not been a natural burnett and was a blonde would you think she would look hot with dark hair? Just some food for thought! i think Holly has some very nice healthly hair and it looks ok on her, I never found her to be sexy, when Alyssa had hair simlar in lenght and style I still thought she was sexy, when Mandy had long blonde hair I still thought she looked hot but since they both changed there looks I think they both are knock outs in there new looks. You never know until you try!

Alyssa looks incredibly sexy with her hair that short, she has perfect features for it. Even guys I have mentioned Alyssa to that don't usually love short hair on women as I do, think she looks stunning in her new short hairdo! She's incredible, she really makes that show.
My wife wears a similar length and style, and like Alyssa she's a doll. I love that hairstyle om women.

Maybe that length, but styled a bit differently? Most men don't seem to look good with their hair on their faces. But if you can pull it off *shrugs* be my guest. I'm all for breaking down the gender barrier as much as possible :-) .

Question do you think a guy would look good with her new haircut?

No! It's a female haircut and I have seen guys with some thing close to Alyssa's and didn't look right on them. Alyssa on the other hand looks so darn hot in that cut. What a hottie. Would be cool to see Holly Marie Combs go that short.
It's a female haircut?
Would that make my knee-length "haircut" a man's haircut, then?
I have also seen lots of guys with something close to Alyssa's cut. I don't know if it looks "right" or "wrong" but it's a normal, common look.
Nah, Holly Marie Combs, as is, provides max contrast from Alyssa with Rose in the middle.
I saw a few minutes of the premier the other night and my take: somewhat short is okay on her (long is best), but the ultra-short is not good. Makes her head and face look angular. Just MO.
