Hi everyone. I have got long, straight hair, almost to my waist. The hairs themselves are fine, but there are a lot of them so my hair is pretty thick. For a while I have been thinking about having my hair cut, maybe to about shoulder length, I`m not sure. What does everyone think. Should I cut it or not? If yes, can anyone tell me a style, and maybe give a picture. Thanx a lot. Emily :)

If you really want to cut your hair you could get a short sassy cut like Britney Spears` hair when she got her hair cut. It was above her shoulders a few inches and it was adorable. Shoulder length hair is kind of boring and plain unless you have tons of time to style it and make it perfect everyday. I don`t think that you should cut your hair because I adore long hair but if your ready for a change I recommend a sassy short cut like the one here: http://members.tripod.com/rokstedy/shf37.jpg
Just my humble opinion, hope I helped at least a little bit.
I like you more than ice-cream!

Your hair sounds lovely, Emily! Why do you want to cut it? More importantly...BE SURE before you let someone lop off your length...if you`re not happy with it, growing back will take you a very long time...And if you want support or help with your long hair, do stop by the long hair board here - or at TLHS or longhairlovers.com. Long hair is versatile and wonderful.
Be happy - and not sorry!

Hello,

I wouldn`t cut the hair, after my opinion long hair like yours is indescribable beautiful.

It is always possible to go to a short cut but to reach a length like yours needs a lot of patience and also a lot of luck, because very long hair is very special in society and there are a lot of obstacles to reach it (genetics, hair condition, weather, water, conformity, pressure, jealousy ...).

It is also possible to let a long hair look short. I have stored some advices on my hard disk. And you could use a short haired wig if you really want to look different, but I think your own hair is too worthfull to be cut off.

I won`t advise cutting so much off at once. If you find you don`t like your hair shoulder length, it will take a long time to grow back.

I suggest you cut about 4 inches off. That`s a noticeable change but not huge an it won`t take forever to grow out. Then if you still want your hair shorter, cut another 3-4 inches off... Keep doing that till you find what you want.

Good luck!

Hello Emily,

Your hair sounds way too lovely to cut off, especially to shoulder length. I really would suggest that you rethink cutting it as your hair is very special and makes you stand out from all the girls with boring shorter hair. I would hope that you keep your hair, because I can assure you that you will break a few guys hearts if you cut it all off to your shoulders. Long hair is much prettier.

Best wishes,

John

I second the stuff said above - few people these days have nice long hair like that. It`s really special. Insteand of cutting it, have fun experimenting with buns, twists and braids - there are many options and you can
constantly have change.
