I missed that this morning of Ann talking about her hair. Didn't know her daughter had cut hers already, waist length is a lot of hair to donate. Ann confirmed it in her talking it is going to happen . We'll just have wait and see when it takes place. Hopefully not till she turns 50, but I doubt that. So lets just enjoy Ann's beautiful LONG LOCKs till it happens. I think she looks great with it this long, much better than her short cuts. wonder how short she'll go since she going to do it sometime. Not really short I hope
Truly a shame, Kramer! I'll bet she's postponed cutting b/c she dreads all the negative mail. It's a sad thing when a woman with such feminine, spectacular hair "hates" it. Ah well! Bob

Bob, I have to question your presumptions here. How do you know
she'll get negative mail, or that she "dreads" it? Why is it sad for a
woman to hate her hair if she didn't grow it as a personal choice (but
rather for charity)?
I understand your disappointment and the advance mourning of the
long hair - I'd be the same way if Melina Kanakarides (sp?) were
having her curls chemically straightened. But I wouldn't fault her for
being sick of a style she's tried for a long time, or assume she gets
negative mail. Except from me, of course.
Your hair is your best accessory; wear it with STYLE!
By the way, the last two days, Katie has had her hair parted on the left side again -- the way I prefer. However, she also seems to be tilting her head more as well.

"Mourning" is way too strong a word. I rarely watch Today even *with* Ann's long hair. When I do tune in, the hope of seeing it is the only reason, I admit! (lol) But 90% of the time I think of Ann, it's b/c of her threads here. Any time a woman attains such magnificent tresses, yet finds no joy in them, I find it a little sad.
This probably belongs on the "Politics" board, but I think many "professional" women who grew up in the 70's have an ingrained belief that long hair fails to garner respect from others, and that the hair itself is "girlish". I think that theory is outdated, but persistent. I was hoping that through Ann, others might break free of the bonds of the stereotype. Maybe she herself has, or never believed it in the first place, but I have difficulty comprehending that after all her effort in *intentionally* achieving her wonderful cascade of hair, she now claims to "hate" it. Smacks of past hauntings to me. Blessings, Bob

Ann talked about her impending haircut this morning because Katie and Matt were discussing that many viewers had written the show following the segment about long hair on 40+ year old women to say how much they liked Ann's hair. Ann reiterated that she was growing her hair for LOL and that she hated having long hair. She said she hadn't cut it yet because the show's producers were controlling when the cut would occur but they'd just decided that Ann would have it cut on the air on March 1. Ann offered to let Katie do the cutting, but Katie declined. They did say that the producers were debating having a contest to see how Ann's new style should look but hadn't yet decided if they'd do that.
That explains why she hasn't cut the hair. On TV, you don't control your hair.
They worry about what people like Bob think and take their time to make a
decision. It's one of the trade offs of getting paid so much.

All I got to say then is lets enjoy Ann's beautiful LONG LOPCKS till then / Hopefully maybe if we try hard enough the producers will tell Ann to keep fairly long ,if not really long. Maybe it;ll be waist length when all done and said

Well I did post on the Alex about NBC having control. So with this info about her getting it cut March 1. Now let the games start. Why not bring in the chair from Fear Factor? Bring in rateing for both shows?
