Why do many woman cut their hair short after getting married?

Right now I am trying to grow my hair out. After I had my girls I have mostly had short hair when they were little they always pulled on my hair. I think that after I get my hair as long as I can this time I will have it short from than on. It is hard to maintain nice hair when you have a life and kids. I am not say it cannot be done but you have to make it happen! I was thinking I notice a lot of women cut their hair when they get older too. Great discussion and happy mylotting to you.

I've my hair short since high school, but senior year I let it grow out some for pictures. I got pregnant senior year and married a month before I graduated. I did have my short and after the delivery I actually let me hair grow out. My ex husband and I separated I cut my hair off because it was easier for me because I worked, went to school and a mother. I still have my hair short I have tried to let my hair grow out, but it doesn't look right on me.

Often women cut their hair when having children so the children won't grab it and it's just easier to handle, or so they say. That and sometimes they don't have the time to keep up with it. Now, there is an actual history behind the cutting of hair though after marriage. Some religious sections believe a woman should cut her after marriage. That way no one else will think they were beautiful or would want them after they are married. It's a male dominated idea so you may just have to do a little research on your own to prove that idea.

Is that so ? humm , i never knew someone who did that after marriage. Well, all i know is that a lot of women cut thier hair after break up or if they have a problem. It become a scapegoat for some i would say.

I think a lot of times women cut their hair off because they get tired of dealing with it. Especially when you are a mother, you have everyone else's hard to worry about that you really don't have time to worry about yours. Look at Kate, she has 8 children to worry about every day and you know her days are full as it is with all those children. My hair was down to the middle of my back and over the summer I got hot and just decided to chop it all off. The outcome, well, I didn't like it and neither did the men around me either. I have one man who repeatedly tells me all the time, "Your hair isn't growing back fast enough". Your telling me, I can't wait for it to be long again, but then I know once it gets long again I will probably be wishing it was short again.

Some of my friends also kept their hair long only till marriage, and they wore a shorter haircut after marrying. One of the reasons was to look really at their best for this special occasion. Also they can keep this memory through photos and videos. Since it takes a lot of time and care to look after their long hair, I guess it's much easier to manage short hair.

U are exactly right. My mom had a long hair before marriage and now she is having short hair. But she looks good in short hair

My wife has her hair cut every now and then but then I guess they say that having their hair cut is somehow therapeutic for them. My wife when under too much stressed in her job wold just decide to cut her hair and after that she feels relieved for a moment. I guess different women has their reasons for that. I am pretty sure your mother has some reasons too why they decided to cut their hair.

i think woman who have long hair make her look more younger than shorter hair. After getting married, they focuse on their husbands and babies. No time to spend in being dressed up. That's why many woman cut their hair short after getting married. But different people have different views on that. I just give you my opinion.

Even I too don't know why my wife have shortened her hair she is pretty much beauty with long hair. I just want her to leave her hairs to grown for ever.

hi....women thinks that they looks good in shot hair but i hate short hairs on women i like long hairs on women it gaves u good look

Sorry, men see long hair as hot. It covers flaws better than any makeup. I wish it wasn't true, but it is.

What can I say? Most women experience a beauty letdown when they cut off long hair. Long hair usually makes a woman super hot, and makes a guy forget extra pounds or average features. At least that's what happens for me. I wish it wasn't true, since hair is only an object, but it is a fact nonetheless. Guys are wired to enjoy softness and femininity, and most of us see long hair as special.

Well There is a reason men tipically dont like women to have long hair. God has programed them that way. read 1 cor. 11. I have talked to my husband and he thinks women with short hair arent as pretty. the funny thing is, when i first met him i had a shorter haircut and I believe God sent him my way that night, because shortly after that, I got into church, got the Holy Ghost and realized that my long uncut hair is my glory, and is my covering given to me by God! :D Also for a woman to have long (uncut) hair it is a sigh of submission to your husband and to God, Because the head of a woman is man and the head of man is Christ 1 Cor:1. I hope this helps maybe to explain why men tipically like long hair! :) Have a blessed day!

I too had chopped off my waist length hair to shoulder length, but not immediately after marriage. It was after childbirth when I was losing quite a lot of hair and it was a real bother to take good care of such long hair. With the baby demanding constant attention, I was not doing justice to my tresses and there’s nothing more odd-looking than a pony-tail or bun of real thin hair.

Hi there revellanotvanella, Yes, Sometimes woman do that. And my mother does the same like yours. LOL We are (womens) are want to be more practice to handle things. I assume my mom have trave her hair for 3 kids. i guest and she doesn't have the time to touch her hair anymore. Her hands are all over the shink, washing machine and stove. Pretty hair need times and maintenance too, you know. And i think Husbands are angry to watch their wives goes to beauty salon just to cream their hair. happy posting always !! oxox'dian from bali island.

I am a woman. After my marriage I have also cut my hair short. I have enough reason for it. After marriage my responsibilities and business increased a lot. I got into a hectic schedule, and then I got no time to look after and care for my hair. I used to oil, shampoo, and massage my hair, which now I couldn't do due to lack of time. That is why when I combed my hair, a lot of hair fell everyday. Thus I took this decision, and now I am happy that i have cut my hair, and now the hair fall rate has lowered much.

I don't know why but it might be as a manor of saving time. With a family there is not a lot of "me" time and with a shorter cut hair doesn't take as long to style and is easily managed. I've had it all lengths and personally like it shorter myself. I know a lot of guys that prefer long over short, but then again a lot like shorter cuts too.

it is really a very difficust task to maintain the hair after marriage as well as maintainig the family n so women cut their hair so that it is easy to maintain. but then as days go due to tension the hair will become short by itself n so it is useless to cut the hair after marriage. my mom had a very long hair but then it became short as years went by.
