For those with long hair of any length, if you could cut your hair short, and "magically" one week later, you were absolutely guaranteed to have your original long hair back, would you cut it for that one week, just for the curiosity of having short hair?

no, I don't think I would. I've had short hair before, and know that it's not very flattering to my face.

Nope. For 2 reasons. It should grow that long in the first place :P and it reminds me of a ****ty childhood.
I hate all of the following and lots more : Fundamentalists, racists, sexists, fascists, ageists (people saying seniors = senile , kids = stupid , 18 = immature or a combo of them), and bigots for causes yet to receive their own designation.

Sure, why not? Out of curiosity I would do that. As long as it reappears a week later.

If I would get my long hair back...absolutely. I'd love to spin on the ice without having a bulky bun at the back of my head.

I'm with papillion purple, for the same reasons. I think my longer hair suits my face shape and height better than short hair. It's only recently grown a little longer than shoulder length, but it pulls out the deep wave that misbehaves when it's shorter than that. To me, it's worth the extra effort to keep it longer, and besides, look at all the great hair toys I get to wear now!

No (shudder).

I would not willingly succumb to that torture again.

If I could have my hair back the way it is now, guaranteed, I would do it more than once, and donate the cut hair to Locks of Love. They make wigs for people with cancer who have lost their hair. I would do it as many times as my hair magically came back.

Nope, nope, nope.

I've done my short hair time. Sorry - magic or no I couldn't do it. I can scarcely imagine it now - my hair was awful when it was short.

Nope. I had short hair for many years. No curiosity there.

I've had the rest, now I have the best -- long.

I would do it if I could have it all back the next week. Ive not seen myself with short hair since 7th grade...Id love to see boy cut short, a charelston dancer style short, a pixie cut, layered, not sure i care about shoulder lengths so much though.

but i want it all back after that week.\!

Nope. I've never had really short hair and have no intererest in having it. Although I would go for thicker and wavier for a week to see if I really would like it, always envying others who have thick wavy hair.

I would cut and cut and cut some more!!

Then away you hairy beasties AWAY!
No more pranceing with your hairs all danceing.
No more silky tresses kissing your dresses.

Short short. Short and so sweet.
No more hairy be, not even your feet!
AH HA!
Ah wha! Ha! Hee!
Skip and dance!

I would display my sabre teeth
And with my razors Toad defeat
No more cuts could Toady make
There is no hair in the deep dark grave

And if Toady would arise as an un-dead
Like a Vampire Slayer no tears would I shed
Straight to the heart with a sharpened stake
Toady demise I would celebrate

Alas and sad the day.
She kills with no remorse.
I only wish to cut off the hair,
while she cuts off a life.

What society is this?!
Bloodlust among the good hearted?
My blades do not near the flesh.
Your teeth crave a death.

Alas, and sad.

So then I will chop, untill she steals my life.
Chop Chop Chop!
Ah wha! Ha! Hee!
Skip and dance!

If I could be guaranteed it would be back in
one week, absolutely.

I have often longed to know what I would
look like in a super short Pixie.
Messy on the top, with mousse and all.
I think it would be fun.

I would take the top off my car, drive
in the wind, run through a field of flowers,
go swimming, all sorts of fun things,
all carefree!

Then I would gladly return to my long hair.

Karen Marie!! Karen Marie"
A long haired goddess is Karen Marie!!

With flaxen lox she wanders my dreams
The Rapunzel of fairy-tales
Even longer, it seems.......

So glad to "see" you here

To Toady,


Tis not your life I seek to take
Just a blunting of your blade

Your on-line life is a cutting wish
My heart will not bear a single swish

If snip you must then please steer clear
Of the Order of Un-cut Ends, Toady dear

There are those would embrace you
Welcome you � nay
Would hold you as leader
To you they would pray

Short Hair Board posters who cut to re-make
Their soft flowing tendrils into spiky parades
Seek out O Warty, your own kind and then
You can cut without censure, chop without end
Uzi
