Actually, I just got down telling my daughter I think woman should all shave their heads and go bald, like the woman in the picture.
She and her mother are having a discussion, behind closed doors so I know it can't be good. My lovely one comes out of the room to tell me that she has cut her hair. She's been thinking of getting a haircut but I guess she couldn't wait any longer. Silly child. I already knew she had cut her hair, my eyes aren't that bad So, I told her the comment about all women should just go bald. Why? she asked. Because, it seems like when a womans hair is long she wants it short. When it's short, she wants it long. Women are crazy
So, tell me, are you happy with your hair? When is the last time you had a haircut?

Sounds more like a silly Daddy than a silly child..............just saying! LOL
I had mine cut just before Christmas. And yes I'm very happy with it, though now that I've got my new avatar, I have to grow it long again to fit my pic! ROFL

I have said that to my daughter too
a couple of weeks ago mine pulled the same stunt by trying to cut her own hair
she messed it up pretty good and I wasnt sure if it could be fixed
Aside from needing a slight trim I am happy with my hair
I learned years ago that I dont like short hair on me
I cut it because it was easier to mannage while in the military
my last trim was a few months ago so I am about due again
I wont get more than 2 inches taken off
my hair is down to the middle of my back and I wont go any shorter

I have to correct myself
when i posted that my hair was in a ponytail
now that its down I realise its longer than that
it just barely touches the waistband of my jeans
I didnt think it had grown that much

Actually my hair use to be long enough I set on it when I sat down,I always had it pulled back in a ponytail then one day I think it was when I turned 45 and was have a bad time about the age thing,I had it cut really,really short,I sent the ponytail to locks-of-love and it was almost 3 feet long,I have had it short ever since and need a hair cut very badly but my husband wants me to grow it out a little bit so for him I am trying but it is getting to that lenght that it needs to grow some more or I am having it cut.Short hair is diffently easier to care for.What is it with men wanting their ladies to keep their long hair? You have a great evening.

You can run your fingers through short hair too.

hi fwid...years ago i truly wanted to shave my head. if i thot i could get by with it. some women look good enough with a bald head. but i wouldn't. then in the winter i like my hair over my ears when i'm in bed to keep them warm. otherwise i'd need a ski band in bed if i were bald. and it would be uncomfortable and might now stay on with no hair. so i guess my hair is good for something.

I like the way my hair looks short and it's easier to manage but it gets boring. It gets boring because there's only so much that you can do with short hair. I like it long because I can put it up into different styles and change how I look if I want to. I got my hair cut last about 1 year ago. I cut my own banges when they get too long but other then that I only get my hair cut about every 2 years and then I donate it to "Locks of Love" to help cancer patients.

well, what a good conclusion, go bald. :D
i had my haircut half years before, at the 1st day i backed to China. haircut in England is expensive. and i hav a medium (not long ,not short ,i am not sure the word in English :D ) natural curly hair, its difficult to grow to very long, at least looks very long.
but i have a good method ha, wig! i bought a wig with long smooth curly hair. my parents and friends told me that's suitable for me :D
I dont know how to post a picture when i respond, otherwise i can show you the wig.

Hi fwidman, my hair at one time was long and I was proud of it, but all of a sudden got temporary alopechia and lost a lot of my hair infact nearly bald-I was devasted and had to wear wigs eventually it grew back but has always stayed shoulder length it never seems to grow-as I love my hair long I have had hair extensions and it felt so good to have it long again and gave me a new found confidence, so definitly long hair is my favourite...littleowl

When I was little my mum always made me have my hair short almost like a boys and I hated it,so as soon as i could I grew it right down my back to my bottom,then the babies came along and it was short again,then as they got older it grew again ,now it is shoulder length and my husband loves it.I have always changed my style as my hair grows like crazy and is very thick.I have had it all colours,now I am having high lights although not being to sure about low lights as well.It is a constant battle to be satisfied with my hair,it is a big thing for us girls,you men just get on with it,but for us it is our crowning glory and we must look good.Sometimes being bald seems such an easy optionIn the morning deciding whether to use straightners,curling tongs, or just blow wave it ,then wax,styling mousse,or just let it go natural then it is hair spray ,finishing spray.styling spray it is not an easy job at all,sometimes starting house work about eleven am ,it makes me late.Today and for the last few days I have been decorating so I just throw it up and stick it under a wooly hat to stop the paint getting in it,but I cannot decorate every day can I.I had a trim a week ago but it still does not look right.

Ummm, if I shave my head, do I have to where the polka-dotty bow-tie too?
It has been 8 months since I got my hair cut, and it really needs a trim. My hair has been known to kill the beater bars in vaccuum cleaners.
I'm really not happy with my hair, because it just seems to be getting REALLY gray lately. Almost skunk-like in the bangs, really. Bleh.

I once shaved my head till I was a bald as the woman in the picture...but, it was not a good look for me. At the time it did not matter a whole lot because I was doing it for spiritual reasons but once I came out of that spiritual phase I thought, no way jose, I want hair back, so I wore a wig for ages.

Well, humans are rarely satisfied. We're never satisfied with what we have. When it's cold we complain about the cold. When it's hot, we complain about the heat. The same goes for our hair. I don't think we should go bald just because we can't decide between growing our hair long and cutting it short. I think a better solution would be to buy hair extensions or clip ons. I have seen some of Jessica Simpson's HairDo line and it looks really natural and easy to use. it allows you to transform your hairstyle in just a few minutes too.

Hey fwidman! You might have a point about women not knowing
what they want to do with their hair! I let my hair grow and
now I don't know what to do with it! I don't like it long and
I didn't like it shorter with layers. Now I think it looked
better with layers but I want it longer with layers! I don't
know what to do with it! But, I don't want to shave it off!
That is the only thing I do know! I'm kinda picky about my
hair! I'm the one that has to deal with it!
