Hair is our crowning glory especially for women. Most men I've met prefer a long hair gal. They said she looks more feminine and sexy. I don't know about that, how long hair makes a girl looks sexy. LOL.However, I wear my hair long it is because I can easily style it anyhow I want plus i feel more comfortable feeling the long strands rather than the short ones.My partner doesn't mind if I wear it short or long, though. What's your preference? We may have different opinions here. Thanks in advance.

Hi Eurekafemme,
Long or short hair is fine with me as long as i can manage it and i look presentable with the kind of hairstyle i have.
I have a long curly hair and i am into reflecting on having a rebond even for once in my life to experience an straight hair...maybe next week i will have my hair done!

Hello, Msfrancisco. Great to hear that. One advantages of having a long hair is we can experiment different hairstyles. Giving us an edge to the ones with short hair. Only be careful when considering of having your hair rebonded. Make sure you are dealing with the right person and using the right product or else it could end up as a disaster. May you will have a great time:-)

Hi there again.:-)
Unfortunately there's nothing that I can recommend since I am not into hair rebonding. I'm just lucky to have a manageable hair.:-) But I'm pretty sure there are reliable parlors in your place where you can entrust your crowning glory to safe and good hands.:-) Goodluck, my dear.:-)

A beautiful long hair is an asset to possess.But at times if it is very thin and dull then it does not work out.I feel whether long or short hair,it should be healthy and thick enough to make one look good.And one can also choose according to their comfort.Beauty is how one carries themselves,so it is upto an individual how well they can carry themselves with their long or short hair.

hi eureka!
i feel hair style is very important part of our looks so it is always better to keep a style that suits your face cut. as for me, when i feel like having long hair i start growing it and when i feel like keeping it short it cut it. but i take care that my hair stylist keeps it smart.

Abanerji, thank you for sharing your thoughts.:-)
The way we keep our hair speaks alot about us. Sometimes we are judge according to how we style our hairs, right? Plus, on certain occasion a great hairstyle makes alot of statement.:-) So, wether we're just going to the mall, or office, or a party and even just inside our house it is always handy to keep a smart hairstyle. :-)

How you wear your hair does not only depend of how you like it ,but in other things too. For some faces a short hair is more becoming than a long one. Age is other thing to think of and the type of hair you have.
I used to have my hair medium to long until a couple of months ago I decided to try it shorter. With the hair loss, I shed about 10 yearsI decided that was MY hair lenght.
Take care!

Hello, Marguicha.:-) You are right. The length of one's hair depends on the shape of the face. It can either make you look older or younger, as well. I'm glad to hear that you've found the right hair length for you.:-)

i never understood why some people like women to have long hair. i personally find long hair a little disgusting.
my personal preference would be for women to have shoulder length hair with a tolerance of +/-10%. As for guys uhm dunno, i m not into much guy hair style.

Crimsondevil, It is their opinion and yours is different. But I must agree with you that long hair with a coarse texture is something that is not pleasand and unsexy to look at. Better keep your hair short if your hair is not really health.
Thanks for sharing your views :-)

As a man I would go for women with long hair. For me I look at them as very sexy and attractive to see, but it depends on the facial value of whos? the owner of the hair it thus varies you know if it fits you.

Thanks, Scoutsniper.:-) You are correct for saying that it depends upon who's wearing what. One may sport a long hair but will look better on a short hair.:-)

I prefer mine long but need to get it trimmed every four weeks because my hair grows fast and because it's thick it looks a mess if I don't.
However I like shoulder length hair, its so nice to wash and dry it quickly!
My partner likes long hair on women.

Hello, 133tgirl.:-)
There are cuts suited for thick hair. There were times I also had those Bad hair days. My hair looks heavy and thick plus it was unruly, too. I had it layered to lessen the volume but maintaining it length.For years, it worked well for me.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.:-)

For me I prefer shoulder length hair because it is easy to manage. It has also an advantage to me. First, it can save money because it only requires a small amount of shampoo and conditioner. Second it may or not require to go to a hair salon for treatment because you can manage it yourself. But whether short or long it depends on your preference and the shape of your face. If it fits to you then continue but if not then go the other way.

You speak with logic there, Rosey.:-)It is economical to maintain short hair compared to the long one.

I think it depends on the woman who we are talking. There are girls that look good with long hair and there are others that looks better with short hair. And of course there are girls that looks well with both looks. With the short hair i think there is a limit. I mean short hair for woman still should be long compared with a boy. Well that is my opinion at least

Hi, Edxcast. I do agree with you that not everybody can have long or short hair and they will still look good. Only few people are given that priviledge.:-) My sister have a very short hair, even shorter than her husband's.LOL. But she looks good on it;-) Thank you for sharing your thoughts.:-)

see it depends on your body personality ,But I prefer short hair for men bcz I dont like those boys or men who keep long hair ,they seem to be like women and I prefer long hair for girls because they look so beautiful in long hair and they can keep different style also if they have long hair if this is your original pic so I suggest you to keep long hair as you have already

Hello, Sachin.:-) Thanks for voicing out your opinion here.:-)
Typically, I prefer man with a hair shorter than mine but I've male friends with longer hair (they keep it in ponytails) and they look sexy with it, too. Sometimes, I envy women who can sport the wash and wear type of a hair. You don't need to pay so much time brushing it and keeping it healthy.:-)
Yup, this is my original picture. I'm always wearing my hair long.:-)

I personally like long hair strands.I think long hair does looks sexy.but the maintainance is very much.I think one should keep long hair only when the hairs are healthy and more in volume.its no use to keep thin hairs long.I use to have long hairs some years ago but now i have trimmed them a lot because of hair fall.

Hello, Bluray.:-)
We have no choice if nature is against our crowning glory but to have it trim and wear it shorter than we like... I sometimes am having a problem with hair fall that's why I'm shifting from one shampoo to another. Hair fall could be a genetic defect but enough sleep and healthy diet can help lessen the hair fall.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.;-)

I have medium long hair and I prefer it this way so it will not be difficult to manage whenever I get up in the morning to go to work. But, I make it a point to have a hot oil treatment for relaxation every week.

My partner has short hair, and it suits her very well. I love her hair, though before I met her, I always said that I preferred long hair on women (just as I preferred long hair on men).
I think it's something that is intensely personal: there can never be a right or wrong answer, and I'd never dream of asking my partner to grow her hair just to suit my personal preference!

MJay, I'd like to compliment you for loving ang respecting your wife's wants.She's one lucky lady:-)
Yup, as this discussion progresses,I can absolutely agree with you that there's no right or wrong answer. Everybody is entitled to his/her own preference as we are not the ones who will tell what will make them feel good or bad about themselves.It is a personal choice, indeed.:-)
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Have a lovely day, my dear.:-)

eurekafemme hi oh I am letting my hair grow long as it seems
to suit my face better,and its getting cooler too so it
feels right. I do not like my hair real short, i am a
woman so want to look like a woman, not like a man. My
hubby liked me in long hair and I do think he is right. I
am now a widow but still like my hair long.

Hello, Hatley. :-) Thanks for sharing your views here. I do agree with you that long hair makes a woman looks more feminine. :-) I have the same dilemma as you have with having a short hair, I was often mistaken as a boy.LOL. Sorry to hear about your husband... Anyways, I know you are happy with the way you lokk. Goodluck, my dear.:-)

Hey, Ip. :-) Thanks for sharing your thoughts.:-)
Even if you have a curly hair, it doesn't meant you can't wear it long. Curly long hair, I think, is sexy. I have a straight hair and I often wish to have a curly hair ( human nature to wish something that you don't possess). I can't have it permed because it is too sensitive and I'm scared chemicals will damage it permanently. But you can use hair shiner to have a wet look effect. Trust me, it always works with long curly hair.:-)

Hi, Eureka!I have cut my hair very short before way back when I was still in school. Well, that was more than 20 years ago! Ever since those school years, I always have long hair, sometimes, I just trimmed it a bit and other times I cut it until above or below shoulder length.
My friends did comment that my face looked different when I cut my hair. Again, that was a few years back.
After that I always have long hair and when I met my hubby, he loves my hair so much and he didn't want me to cut it. Last year I did cut it though and did something with the front hair as well, but it's not too short.
When I looked back at my photos with short hair, I looked younger, but when I compared with me in long hair, I prefer to have long hair because it makes me look more matured with my age and feminine and yes, sexy, too!

Very well said, Corrycrystal.;-) Short hair can make us younger, well, there are exceptions of course, for others look older with short hair. Long hair looks more feminine, sexy and you can look flirty when you curl it, formal with a bun or youthful just letting it down naturally. I'm also the one cutting my hair. My hairstylist showed me how to give it a quick trim. And I like it.:-)

Hello, Rhayde. Typical man. My partner wants my hair long, too and I'm keeping it that way not because he likes it but because I like it to be long.:-) Yup, it makes me feel sexy especially if I'm just letting it down freely.LOL
Thanks for sharing your opinion. Have a great day.:-)

I think that a girl is sexy with long and short hair, it depend on the type of face that she had, not all girls are sexy with long hair and not all girls are sexy with short hair.
My face is round and long hair are better for me... but a small long face are very nice with all type of hair.

Definitely true, Pamela.:-) Those with small face can pull with any hairstyle without having so much fuss. I also have a round face that's why I'm keeping my hair long, though, I've tried so many hairstyles before, from the short ones to the long and sophisticated ones.:-) Thank you.:-)
