Hello. I have a question, especially for people who have strong opinions about hair style and length. What do you say when a friend asks your opinion on cutting or growing their hair? Specifically when it's opposite to your personal tastes? I recently had a friend ask me if she should cut her very curly, shoulder-length hair. She had been thinking about it for months, and she pointed out that it would set off her long neck and nice features. She also said that she gets tired of dealing with it in all the humidity. My first impulse was to squeak out "eeeeeeekkkk!Noooooo!" but I restrained myself. I told her I was very partial to long hair, especially curly, but I did agree she has nice features and could empathize on the humidity issue. I suggested she might like to try one of those hairstyle computers first to see how it would look.I was trying to be supportive of our decision (she had obviously been considering this for awhile) and at the sametime honest about my own opinions. I don't know if I wasbeing wishy-washy or considerate. When it comes right down to it, her friendship is more important to me than whetherI like her hair. What do you guys think?---Kim
