Do you ever get bored with your hair and get the urge to do something different like cut it or colour it or whatever
 
I feel like that at the moment and don't know what to do about it

 I love it long and don't want to cut it although I think about darkening it but the color is o.k.  I wouldn't mind a nice french braid for the day.

I had a dream the other night that my hair was chin length, shiny, and very bouncy.

It makes me miss my short hair, but I know this is the better option for me.

Good question Nastasska!

Really the only time I feel like having a different cut is when I see my friends styling their hair in less time than it takes me....or when I go swimming. 
 
Question for Holly.....what did you end up doing with your hair for your sister's grad??

No, I never get bored with it.
 
IMO in this regard, women have more hairstyle and accessory options than men, so it would seem to be less of a concern for women than it is for men.
 
Nastasska, tell us about all of the different hair styles you wear, and what assortment of hair accessories you use.  Do you ever set it to bring out the waviness/curliness?

No, I don't really get bored with my hair, although I think I can get tired of it sometimes. There are those times when I just don't feel like doing anything with it and maybe I'll wish it was shorter or thinner, but then about that time, someone compliments me, and I forget all about messing with it! I love long hair!

I never think of coloring or cutting out of boredom, but if I do get bored I try new styles or styling methods, or I try or buy a new hair toy.

Definately....YES!

Men are very limited in how we can wear our long hair. My wife wants it tied back in a ponytail when we're in public (a compromise I make, since I want to please my wife....she'd much prefer I cut it).

I am bored this summer with it. I've thought about cutting to a shorter style.

I got tired of them within a day and waited until they were long enough and cut them straight across. They get very annoying which is a shame since they look so good.
 
I get bored all the time and end up adjusting my fringe(bangs) or changing the colour of my hair within a shade or two of it's natural colour. Trying hard to leave it alone now. The colour is pretty much virgin and the fringe is all jaw length now.

     I *hope* you're not "bored" enough to really cut your hair, Natasska. Haircutting, if it *must* be done, should be approached with enthusiasm. Lacking this, it's probably not a great idea.
     People get bored with short hair too, but all that can be done with short hair is a different cut or worse, processing. If the boredom is a yearning for length, processing usually sets one back dramatically.
     My suggestion is that you either wear your hair up for a while and forget about it, or have it pinned under so you can have fun with a drastcally shorter look w/o paying a permanent price. Remember, boredom passes, as does all things!  God bless, Bob

Yes even though my hair at its longest is 3inches below my shoulders and am aiming for the middle of my thighs, relatives urge me against it and say to keep it at this length which is sometimes discouraging which makes m want to chop it off.

the only thing that ever makes me want to cut my hair is when my husband rolls over on my hair when he's asleep (darn that hurts!)

SugarCube -- They're just as entitled to have short hair as you are to have long hair.  Whatever you want for yourself, you should have.

browneyedgirl -- Have you made a list of pros and cons to the decision (and the impact/importance of each)?  That might help clarify your decision.

Lickalime -- When you go to sleep, do you flip your hair over your pillow?  That might help keep it out of harm's way.

I haven't written them down, but I have thought of some...
I mean, I really like my hair long. I do think it is pretty. It is healthy.
I just wnat to try something new... I mean, I will undoubtedly grow it out again...

I had a hair dream recently too, I had a very short do which was bleached platinum (same color I used to wear years ago, but on bsl hair).  It was a stylish looking cut with the longest pieces about 2 inches long, and very short around the bottom.  It was fun to remember what it was like in the dream and imagine to have it that way, but no way would I ever cut it for real.  It just got to the length where I can do everything I want with it with no trouble (which is an inch or so past bsl), and the ease of this is something I won't be giving up!

Are you prepared to accept the consequences of your choices?  If so, then you are ready to do what you want.  It is up to you to find your own confidence -- nobody can give it to you.
