Hi,

I am a 29yo guy and I think it would be awful if you were to cut your long sexy hair off. There is something so special about a young woman with long, flowing locks, and I am sure you would be no exception. To see the long hair bouncing across her back as she walks is a sight that is pure pleasure. I really hope you won`t cut your lovely long hair off, as I am sure you possibly regret it afterwards. i would love to talk with you about your hair before you do anything rash that you may hate later on. Please feel free to contact me.

Best wishes

Well I have long straight hair. It was to my waist but I cut off about 4-5 inches. I sorta regret doing that even though it wasn`t that much. I couldn`t ask for better hair. I love my hair. Anyway if you do decide to do it then do a little at a time. Maybe once you cut a little you will realize that you want to keep it. I know for me the annoying thing is that my hair sheds like crazy. I cut mine b/c I thought that`d help it but it didn`t do too much. The same thing happened to my friend. Back to the point, decide if you can part with it and make sure you won`t regret chopping all that off b/c you can`t get it back over night!

Hello, Im a guy and I love short hair on women. I haven`t seen a pic of you but with an oval face and glasses you could go shorter than shoulder length and I think you would like it better. Length wise I would say to your chin or above yor ears.

Actually Dave, I was not trying to paint a picture of appreciation for long hair in a bad light!! Because you are also right with the comment about guys who would go out with someone because of their short hair!! My point is if you find beauty in the one you go out with, it should not only be hair deep.

Sheesh hairbrains, who said anything about a guy only liking a girl for her long hair? And if, as you say, there are guys out there that like short hair, what makes you think that some of those guys wouldn`t like some girls "only" for their short hair? Sounds to me like an attempt on your part to paint appreciation of longer hair in a bad light. Why?

Otherwise, your first two sentences are valid.

NightStar, you may want to consider these possibilities: (1) if you feel you are spending more time on upkeep than you want, you may want to look into how you can modify your upkeep routine to decrease your effort. Sometimes we spend more time doing something than is required because we don`t know the best ways to care for our hair. What are your specific concerns regarding the upkeep of your hair? Perhaps we can offer suggestions, but we need to know what problems you`re having. (2) You may want to consider how much time it would take you to style your hair at a given length. Some of the trendy haircuts these days require a considerable amount of effort to force the hair into a given shape, and this time requirement should not be ignored in your decision process.

I`m a guy and I think that short hair is sexy on girls. I particularly love bob styles. There is nothing prettier than a gorgeous girl with a one length bob with bangs anywhere from just below the ears to about an inch above the shoulders. I have my hair cut in a bob below my ears with bangs and I absolutelylove it. I love the shape, the movement, and the versatility of the bob style. Also, this stlye is easy to care for and maintain.

Hi,
I have long slightly wavy hair down to my waist. I'm getting fed up with the up keep of it. I'm thinking of cutting it off at shoulder length. I have an oval face and wear glasses. I don't know if I should or not and was wondering what you people thought. Guys and girls responces appriciated.

Quesion: Do guys like long hair or short hair?

I find the length of a hairstyle is not as important as the the total look. Bottom line is what do you like and what look do you want to achieve?? If you are truly fed up with the upkeep, go for a cut!! And yes there are many guys out there that like short hair!! Also I would think that if a guy would only go out with you if your hair is long, I think there would be a problem there to start with. If they just wanted to go out with long hair - they could take a wig to the movies!!

Why dont` you cut about 4" off and layer it.....?
or get more curls in your hair?
Add highlights.....or just change your whole hair colour
Inches don`t matter

I think long hair is beautiful, but I think you should keep up with the times. Hair about mid back length with some face framing layers would be awesome.

Well this guy for one loves long hair...cutting it would be such a waste, and is the 'up keep' really that much work? As someone with long hair myself (about your length) I'd question that....
