I want long hair because I hate having it short. I loved having it long when I was younger even thought it was more work. And because I can.

I doubt your hair has stopped growing at 18 inches. Terminal length is usually longer than that... maybe the follicles are just taking a rest. Some people wait years for their hair to pick up and start growing again.
Well done (banning the duck, I mean) and well said, Dave! Why are short hair lovers so confrontational and imposing?
As for me, I keep my hair long because this is my way of proudly displaying my status of a free man. The rest of my resons are pretty much the same as Purple Bubba's. Unfortunatelly, my hair refuses to grow longer than its current 18 inches length, so I can't compete with you two.
Please excuse me for not introducing myself properly (didn't mean to be unpolite), but I assumed anyone can check my profile...
Blessed be!

I've never understood the "it just sits there" line. *All* hair just sits there, no
matter how long or short it is.
True DBF, true...
I suspect the "it just sits there" criticism was one of a long list of criticisms surreptitiously devised by some Group Of Duly Dedicated And Merrily Nutty
haircutters who despise the power possessed by long-haired women who
boldly show the world the strength of their resistence to their most
ardent critics -- the aforementioned cutters and their legions of
empty-pocketed customers.
A little over the top, was that?
Back on topic, then... </end hijack>

To answer the O/P and get away from the troll (thanks dave!)
Because long hair allows me to be lazy (no styling or blowdrying), is cheaper than regular haircuts and is the only way my curls will behave! I can also shock people at work by wearing it down as it's usuallly tied up, which is fun! Especially good for meetings I find for some reason.....
I wish my hair did sit there doing nothing though, even when plaited then taken into a french roll it still manages to get itslef into a tangled mess every now and again, ahhh the wonders of curly hair!

Wow, that was my first online scandal! Dave, when you said "you are the duck," it was pretty dramatic - I didn't even see it coming. I'm glad you booted the duck, who was very confrontational and unsupportive. Thank you for taking care of us! And PurpleBubba, your hair is beautiful and so are you

When I originally started growing my hair out as a teen I wanted to look like The Undertaker wrestler. Now I have hair like 4 times as long as his because he was buzzed short for awhile.

"And the sign said long haired freaky people need
not apply
So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went
in to ask him why
He said you look like a fine upstanding young
man, I think you'll do
So I took off my hat I said imagine that, huh,
me working for you"
Because I like to be a long haired freaky people
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign
Blocking out the scenery breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign...

More precisely, you are the duck. The IP addresses match; you are violating board guidelines by using 2 usernames. Furthermore, you are clearly being disrespectful to the purpose of this board. You and your duckie alter ego have been banned. Goodbye.
Not to be mean or anything but you guys look like you have mops on your head.
Not to be mean, of course not. I'm sure your comment was intended to be very kind and thoughtful.

Long hair is nice but not when it just sits there.
And I suppose your hair dances a jig whenever it's being photographed?

Dont get so offended. I like short AND LONG hair. I think people should go for what works best on them. Taking care of yourself shows you care about yourself.
