P.S. This thread has really gotten out of hand.

I wish people would stop insulting Browneyedgirl's intelligence (and equally all other posters on the boards - including on both long and short hair.)
Browneyedgirl had by her own admission been thinking of cutting her hair shorter for some time. On finding the site there are a number of forums - all of which have equal prominence - the short hair board does not occupy any more screenspace than any other. She wanted suggestions and support to cut her hair hence chooses to post on the short hair forum, which was the most appropriate for her at the time.
If she had been getting pressured to cut her hair by friends, family etc she may have chosen to post on the longhair board for support and advice on how to deal with this issue, or equally on the haircolour board if she had been wanting to go blonde or whatever - but its her choice.
Depending on the answers a person wants will determine where they post - so lets accept people have a free choice where to post and do so of their own free will.
Its your hair, your choice and your decision

That's the way it should be. Your first few posts said how important compliments were to you, but I think your opinion is the most vital.
The problem with soliciting opinions, whether on or off the net, is, that they may not all be what you wish.
I must also give you kudos for bravely posting your pic for dissection.

1- I do like my new hairstyle
2- I do as I please with my hair... while I do welcome other opinions, there are few people whose opinions will change my mind.
3- my hair is short-er... even I think that it is hardly short enough for it to make a difference in whether it is flattering to my face. That said, Trekgod.. please be careful about your comments. A few years ago you would have made me cry.. thankfully I am a much more secure adult now. Girls are sensitive about their "features." What you said could be strongly misinterpreted. I am going to choose to believe you didn't phrase it correctly...
4- I may go shorter, may not.. if I do it will be on my own perogative.
5- I grew up in a religious organization full of long-hair loving men. I'm sure they would be abhorred. I knew that when I did this... every boyfriend I ever had, every guy friend I ever had always told me not to cut my hair... while that is a compliment, this is a refreshing change, both with they style and the attitude of my current boyfriend about it.
6- That is not the same Brent on my myspace.. but any of you are welcome to friend me.
7- peace.

Nice of you to compliment her like that TrekGod. I am sure she appreciates your opinion.

Just a comment. I didn't think she has the features for short hair and still don't think she does. That is my opinion. I am glad she is happy though.

I'm probably not going to make too many people happy with my post, but here goes.
1. Samantha/BrownEyedGirl, you're a very pretty girl with long hair or in your current style, but goodness, you chopped off a lot of beautiful, wonderful hair.
2. You have lots of people here telling you to go even shorter. Well, it's a room full of lovers of short hair. Did you survey any of the lovers of long hair before you made your drastic move? Just curious. I would have suggested that you should keep what God blessed you with. Naturally, it's your hair and your decision, but you solicited opinions. Lots of women seem to ask for advice around here, almost as if they're seeking support for their choices. If they truly care about what lots of people think, ask in the Long Hair Support Forum, too.
3. I'm glad you're happy and I'm glad your boyfriend is happy.

I was surprised at how easily I cut my hair too.... the hairdresser gave me at least 4 chances to chicken out... but I didn't...
didn't even sniffle either...
my hair was healthy...but itstill will be... I don't dye it, don't blowdry too often... and it grows fast...
I am still surprised at how much I love it shorter though...

I was just curious.I could tell it was brent by his manner of posts.I just didnt remember any posts that broke the rules.Thanks for the clarification.I'm done being nosy now,lol.
By the way your hair looks gorgeous browneyedgirl.I like shoulder skimming cuts.When my hair was longer I wore it like the last pic you have.Its a very versatile cut.I'm suprised you were able to cut your hair so easily.It looked so healthy and pretty.

To clarify,
Brent was not banned. His accounts BrentAE and SanFranBrent were temporarily disabled because he had more than one account which is not allowed according to our current software. He was contacted by The HB Admin Team regarding this situation and they had a discussion about his various accounts and related posting issues.
It has all been worked out and Brent chose to come back as LongHairedGuy. Which the admin team activated for him after closing his other accounts. As a result, his only active account is LongHairedGuy.
Once someone is banned they should not be able to get back in either via that banned account or a new one since our new software tracks banned accounts and notifies us when the banned account has any related activity.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
