Frankly speaking, I prefer long hair for women. I find them more attractive and more sexier. Look at those beauty queens, models and famous actresses. Most of them have long hair. By the way, I am also a woman, and please don't get me wrong. I am very much straight. I have my hair long eversince my high school days. There was only one time that I had sported my hair short back in my elementary days. And to tell you honestly, it was not my idea. It was my older sister's. Actually, she didn't have my consent to cut it and just forced me. Maybe she envied my long hair then. She had cut my hair so short that my classmates had mistaken me as a boy when I went to our school. From that day on, I never let anyone touch my hair since then. How about you? Which do you prefer? long or short hair?

Hi! Pingfanderen11. I'm glad you responded to my discussion. Even if you are a boy, it doesn't mean you have no right to say your views here. In fact, it will be more helpful that the comment will be coming from a guy like you. Women do want to look good and pretty for you guys out there not only for themselves alone. The tips you gave will be very useful for women for they are quite informative in nature. I'm sure many will benefit from it. Yes, it really depends on one's facial features which one you should choose to have. Again, thanks for responding. Have a nice day!

Hi! again Pingfanderen11. That's a nice question. For me, I like short hair for guys like you. Most women do think so. It makes a guy more handsome, clean and neat, respectable in appearance and more dignified. My first impression on those guys with long hair are not that good. For me, they seemed dirty looking as if they haven't taken their baths yet. We often associate long hair in men as those who used to be goons or bad men. They have no more time in cleaning themselves up because they are very much preoccupied with all the illegal activities they are having. I do hope I already answered your question. Happy mylotting!

Hi! youlechangcs. Well, if you're already tired of having short hair, you can start growing your hair anytime now. You just need to take into consideration which one will make you happy and which one will be more comfortable to you. Thanks for responding. Have a great day!

I prefer to have a long hair...I want it nice and straight...so even if there are times that I need to go to the salon I know it's all worth it because it makes me feel good after. (^_^)

Hi! becdmd. Actually, we have the same preference. I like my hair long too. Even it's a bit expensive to maintain and hard to manage sometimes, I can say that it's really worth it. Thanks for responding. Have a great day!

There's nothing wrong about that Craicha. If that is your preference, you're happy, you feel good and comfortable with it, then why not? Short hair is very easy to manage and less expensive to maintain maybe that's the reason why you want it. Thanks for responding. Have a great day!

It depends on the woman. Some look prettier with long hair and some with short hair. Not all faces are made for long or short hair, as not all faces look good with straight, curly, blonde, brown, black, etc. Now my hair is long, but I have had all kinds of haircuts. I prefer the haircut that will look better on that woman.

Thanks for responding madteaparty! Yes, I agree with you. It will really depend on one's facial features. Some look good with long hair and some do not. Also with short hair, some women do look good having short hair. This is just the fact that what is good for one person is not necessarily good for another person. Sometimes, it's how good one person carries it. Happy mylotting!

I like women who have long hair, really wont care if its blonde or brunette. I have seen women with short hair and I might say that some of them cut them because they have some kind of idol who have short hair . Although short hair dont suit them. Long hair makes girls/women pretty.

Yes, I think so too toataim. Long hair really makes a woman more appealing, attractive, prettier and even sexier. No wonder, men are usually attracted to women with long hair. Thanks a lot for responding. Happy mylotting!

I prefer long hair because you can do just about anything with it. It is kind of hard to mess around with short hair.
• Philippines
22 Nov 09
Yeah! That's very true. You can do just about anything with it. There's a lot of different hairstyles you can do with long hair unlike when you have short hair. Usually, with short hair, you can do with as much as two hairstyles only depending on how short is your hair. Thanks for respondng rogue13xmen13. Have a great day!

Hi, when I was in high school I have short hair, and when I begin college life, I was long hair, and I love long hair, long hair can have more styles, you can make the hair whatever you want, and one day if you tired of long hair, you want short hair, you can just cut it, but for short hair if you want long one, it will take a long time.

Hi! kindy198636. Indeed, you're right. You can do anything with long hair. You can do a lot of hairstyles in it. If you got bored, you can cut it but with short hair, you can't have any other hairstyle but just that. Thanks for responding. Happy mylotting!

I prefer long hair for women. Long hair makes women she is, and gives women more femaninity. Women with short hair just give me the impression of "bad boy".

Haha! I just remembered what happened to me long time ago. I really hate it everytime I remember my older sister cutting my hair very short. Yes, long hair really gives women their femininity. Thanks GaryJoule. Have a nice day!

first of all i must make it clear that I am very much the follower of a long hair when it is associated with the female,In fact my grand mother used to have a long hair even crossing her knees,though i haven't seen her unfortunately!! It depends at times for us the male brigade when and at what instance and in what form the girl is....... therefore according to it I personally feel our or my test or liking depends whether one should have a long hair or a short hair, but at the end I will vote for long hair b'coze it is so mystic enigmatic attractive magnetic and so.... the women actually have so many form like Mother,sister, daughter wife and friend, and all these forms are easily get immersed into one that is long hair. these long hair can be folded into a shorter version but the shorter cannot be done to a longer version and so the longer is the best.

Wow! It's really amazing how you used a lot of adjectives there to describe the advantages of having long hair. Yes, you said it right, you can do anything with it. You can make the long hair shorter by doing some hairstyles but you can't make the short hair appear longer not unless you're going to wear a wig or hair extension. We all know for a fact that wearing those things are not that easy and thus make us very uncomfortable. Thanks a lot for responding! Have a great day!

I prefer long hair because I like to keep it pinned up. I know my husband loves long hair because he can play with it. My cats like my long hair because they can try to chew on it. When I have daughters I hope they will want long hair. I will leave it up to them. I would never tell my child how to wear her hair.

Yes, randylovesdar. Generally, men really likes long hair in women. It's so funny even your cats like your long hair too. I'm sure that will be a good idea to let your daughters decide for themselves if they want it or not. Thanks for responding. Have a great day!

When I was 5 years old, I went to kindgarden with a short hair. Many children laughed at me and treated me as a boy. When I came to elementary school, I began to wear my hair and make it longer than before. As i see it, the long hair is a sign of being a girl, so i prefer long hair, although long hair is difficult to handle.

Yes, sometimes it's hard to manage and maintain but with its advantages, I think it's really worth it. Thanks for responding. Have a nice day!

heyaa santos_mlirs, The world is going in to a mode of reversal right now, skirts for boys and pants for girls has become the in thing in loads of places around the world, then why stick to the old version of long haired beauties ? we have seen that most of the hollywood stars also sporting a nice short haircut which gives them a nice chick, and ofcourse there is the thing of being able to pull it off.. with a nice toned body and slender look short hair is just the thing.!!

Hi!akash224u. Maybe you got me wrong. I have nothing against short hair. It will still depend on the individual which one she would prefer. I just want to add something to that. If you think that the "in thing" will be good for you and it will make you look better, then go for it. Have a great day!

Hi!rucrazy4. I think you are a guy, am I right? I can sense by the way you deliver your line here. Yes, I think so too. In fact, I am sporting one because that's what I believe in. Hair is the crowning glory of a woman. Having a long, beautiful hair makes her more prettier, sexier and attractive. Thanks for responding. Happy mylotting!

Hi santos m. I prefer long hair, although I can't do anything with it. I have very long hair. I have had long hair all of my life. It once was down to my butt in the sixth grade. My aunt too, talked me into cutting my hair at the top for the style at this time. I did not want to cut it.. But, my other aunt cut it.. Ever since then, I never let anyone cut my hair. Even when I get my ends trimmed, I feel like my hair is being cut, but it is not... Sometimes, I wish for short hair, but I take that thought back. I will just settle for long hair. I only wished that I could do hair real good.

Glad to know we have the same choice. I also prefer long hair. Having my hair long is quite challenging though. I can do a lot of hairstyles in it and I can also experiment which ones are good for me. If you can't do anything with it, I suggest, you better ask someone to help you or you can attend some short courses on hairstyling. That will help you solve your problem. Thanks for responding. Happy mylotting!

Hi santos_mlirs,When i was in my teenage days,i had a black long hair with bangs.My classmates told me that i was cute and beautiful that way.Until i got married my hair was long. My husband also likes long hair but i just explain to him why to cut my long hair,specially when we have our kids to care.But this time,at my age i do have short hair because it is easy to comb and makes me comforrtable.Thanks,Good day!

Hi! Hazelrose. If you had decided cutting your hair short, I really don't find anything wrong with that, as long as you are happy and comfortable with it. Usually, when we get married, our family and kids are now our priorities in life and if you think that you have no more time to care for your long black hair, well, I guess you arrived at the right decision. It's good to have long hair if we can take care of it well. Thanks for responding. Happy mylotting!

I think it all depends on the woman herself. Some girls just look weird with long hair, and short hair has the same problem. I have medium hair right now, as I'm letting it grow out from being short. It was really really long in the summer, but then it started to get on my nerves so I had it cut. It doesn't really matter, though, because my hair grows ridiculously fast. Sort of annoying, but good in the long run.

Yes, I agree with you. That really depends on the woman herself. Well, no matter which one we choose as long as we are happy and contented with it, of course that would be nice. Yes, we sometimes feel that way with our hair. It's just normal though. Thanks for responding. Have a nice day!

hi friend nice question but my answer will be it all depends upon height,if she is tall then long hair will suits, if she is short then i dont think so, being a girl i know better, is not so?

Hi! prem234. It's nice to hear that you call me friend even if we don't know each other yet. Well, as I have said earlier, it will all depend on the individual which one she would prefer having. For me, I think short girls can also have long hair not only those tall girls. I have a friend who is not that tall but she also looks good having long hair. Though, I have nothing against what you believe and what you think, of course. Each one of us varies in our perceptions. Thanks for responding friend! Have a nice day ahead!

Some women look better with long hair and some look better with short hair. But I think long hair looks more attractive... I found your story funny but also felt a little sorry.

Yes,I agree with you. Some women really do look better havinng long hair and some look better having short hair. It really depends on what the individual perceives and what she is comfortable having. Glad you were amused by my story and for sympathizing with me too. Yes, that was my older sister's fault. Thanks a lot for responding. Have a nice day!
