I have had long hair for a few years now and I made an appointment to cut it for later this week. I'm excited for a new look, but my sister and I were talking and it got me wondering - guys - do you have a preference about what length and style of hair your girlfriend has?

just curious :)

    I prefer my wife to have long hair. For the most part she has kept her hair long but occasionally she has cut it quite short and then regretted it.

    long and straight unless you can pull off curly. Or if you look hot short I'm cool with that too.

    I am obviously not a guy, but I have had both really short hair and long (half way down my back) hair. I think it depends on the guy. Some guys really don't care, but some do. My bf didn't like it when I cut my hair off, but he didn't say much about it because it's mine. (And he didn't like it when I kicked him in the shin for saying it looked like I was a homosexual) When I had shorter hair previously and was single, it didn't seem to scare men off or anything. I guess there is no way to tell if someone didn't hit on me because of my hair, but then again I wouldn't care. If someone were shallow enough to not look past my hairstyle to see my sparkling personality and grand sense of humor they could buck off anyways. :bigsmile:

    I am not a guy, but my husband all but demands I keep my hair long. I have joked before about cutting it to my chin (it is in the middle of my back) and he was like noooooooooooooooooooo!!

    Not a guy, but keep it long. Men typically like long hair at least from my hair-pulling experiences.

    Doesn't have to be long, but I prefer "not short". As in, down to the chin or shoulder at least. Chest is ideal. Past that, diminishing returns.

    That style where it's long in front and short in back is really cool, too.

    I've had long hair for years and just cut it short. I've gotten a lot of positive feedback from it. Only one person didn't "like it" and so far, he has only seen pictures of it and not yet in person.

    Looooong hair. Unless you're sporting double D's, then it's your choice.

    Long for sure...hard to make "reins" with hair if you only have 2" of hair to hold onto!

    i can't grow long hair--it's thin and it breaks. it's almost always above my shoulders.

    ...but i always keep it long enough to grasp. for ME. :devil:

    My bf likes mine short and long, I think he likes it better short though. I have mine in the victoria beckam style so I really like it. I had long hair most of my life but I love it short now I'm not sure I'd go back to long. I do not miss all the time I had to spend on it.

    It really just depends on what makes you look better! Some people can't pull off long hair and some can't pull off short hair. I've always had my hair long and one day I cut it short when guys told me not to. Next thing I knew those same guys said it was really hot when it was short. Just do it and if you end up not liking it at least it will grow back! I've been all over with hair over the years and it's usually not a man's first concern when they see you
