    < going through a crisis over hair so this is interesting reading.

    I spent my life in long curly hair, until I got to 40 and I believed that women over 40 shouldn't have long hair, its just looks ...... well "child like", IN MY OPINION, like they are hankering for a youth thats gone (IMO) so I got it cut.. SHORT, very short, the type of short that takes 5 mins in the gym ... easy :)

    The response..everyone loves the short hair, expect my best friend of 30 years, a good friend of 15 years and my Mum.

    And now 90% of this thread say long a woman... I'll ask the people who said that, does it matter on age ? Or should I just grow my curls back *slump*

    You should just do what makes you comfortable and happy.

    as far as hair goes...

    my favorite is something like Jennifer Aniston's when her hair is just a touch "messy"

    You shouldn't base decisions about your hair on what strangers on the internet think about it. If you love your hair, then that's all that matters!

    Ya know what's fun with short hair? Different styles. I've probably had 10+ different styles in the last few years (including a very short pixie). With long hair you have long, one length, long with layers, long with bangs, and 'um, that's pretty much it, well except you still get pony tails and stuff too. Honestly I like variety. I like to change my hair often. Its been a bunch of different lengths and even colors. If I kept it long just because "men like it" I would get very bored with it. It's like an attached accessory. Would you wear the same necklace your entire life? The same purse? Same earrings?

    Oh, but the number of styles you can do with long hair! You could change it up every day. I don't envy every woman with long hair. I envy the women with long hair who have the talent to style it. I tried. I tried so hard. I was never meant to be a hair stylist.

    If you like your hair long, grow it long! Where/when did this idea that older women shouldn't have long hair originate? I know a woman who said she was too old for her long hair and chopped almost all of it off. She regretted it. Don't worry about what everyone else says. We're all here just giving our opinions. You have your own opinion and should go by what you prefer.

    I love long hair. Mine goes to my lower back. On a man short to medium usually. I don't mind shaggy hair. No crew cuts. Sorry. :)

    I like men with either a nice hair cut, military hair cut or bald. Don't like long hair on men. Facial hair is a plus. Extra points for chest hair ;-)
