This is a phenomenon I find quite intriguing. We have heard so very many stories from women with medium, long and super long hair who have had people openly denigrate their appearance and blatantly advocate that they try harder to fit in with everybody else by cutting their hair in a more "appropriate" fashion, yet I have never heard a long haired woman walk up to someone and say, "you know if you would just let that poor hair of yours grow you'd look so much younger and wouldn't have those miserable bad hair days and would have so many other styling options, etc. etc. etc." Why the difference in attitudes? I would never dream of telling a short haired person that if they only had a measure of commitment and personal fortitude they would be able to have hair like mine, why would a short haired person be so comfortable asking me to just toss aside and abandon twenty years of loyalty to my personal choices? Harkening back to a recent story from Karen regarding an incident at a hair show, such comments can often be quite insensitive and coercive. Why do you think that is? Comments ladies?Very best wishes to all and may your hearts guide you to choose what truly feels best for YOU, whether it's long or short, Dawn
