My hair is not super short, but I like to keep it right at my shoulders since I live in Florida and it gets way too hot especially with long hair. I've heard all different opinions...some guys HATE it if a girls hair isn't past her shoulders while some guys just really don't care.
If you're a guy, what is your preference? Would it really matter if your girlfriend decided to cut her hair short? And how short is too short?
And just in case the girls want to pitch in: how short is your hair now and have you had any guys complain?

It really depends on the look. Some girls can pull off nicely having long hair while some don't and are better off having short hair. Although some look pretty either way. If that's you on your avatar, I think you'd look nice having short hair. My girlfriend has short hair, too. She doesn't have to seek permission from me whenever she's going to cut her hair, anything works for me coz it also works for her.

I think you'll look cute shorter. Yep, that is weird.

I have had a very short hair similar to Natalie Imbruglia in her video Torn and I never heard a man complain about it or maybe they just didn't tell it to my face. However i overheard one man whispering to another how beautiful I was with a short hair.
My husband never complained and in fact he appreciates my different hairstyles, I change hairstyles as often as I can and it was only a year ago that I decided to go for straight hair and this time my husband complained. What I did was perked my hair and it looked sexier than ever and he didn't complain.
There are girls who can really be attractive with very long hair that guys don't mind it at all.

Yikes, that's a little too short for my taste. Then again I've never tried it, but I'm just afraid it'd make me look too 'manly,' ya know? Anyway you are right, I've never heard anything bad about how short my hair is...well, only from my mother, but that's because I cut my "beautiful, long, gorgeous hair," haha!

hello,
In the past year I have a short hair I mean really short it is like ahm past to the middle of my ears and I have a boyfriend he respect whatever my decision are but he just complain when it is not suit for me. Now, i have a shoulder hair is the term correct?. Ohh well, I am planning to make it long because i like a new style. my friends keep on complaining about my hair because they said that it is not really suit a short hair they said to me to try a long hair. So, I will.

Hey Jeneias! I'm a resident of Philippines. If you think Florida is too hot for you then Philippines is definitely a huge toaster archipelago. :D Though I get to manage my long black hair. It's all up to you. Decide for yourself and not for the preference of some choosy guys. Your own comfort matters more than others' choice. If you look good with a short hair then why not.

Haha well more power to you for having long hair when it's so hot there. I tried to keep my long hair for a while, mostly because my mom didn't want me to cut it, she thought it was so beautiful. But after a while I couldn't take it anymore. I agree with you that it's up to the girl, and not what other guys think. I just wanted to post this discussion to get some opinions from a male point of view!

My hair is just below my shoulders, it has always been about that length or longer. It has only really been shorter than that once and that was because I went to a beauty school to get my hair cut and student messed up and cut too much of my hair off. The guy I was going out with at the time didn't like it, but a lot of other people did. I think it really depends on a person's face. Some people can really pull off short hair like Haley Berry, while others need that extra length. I think rounder or heart shaped faces look best with short hair, but I think oval or long faces look better with longer hair. I think if someone has really beautiful eyes and a perky nose they can pull off just about anything.

I like girls who have long hair rather than short hair because they are know for their hair and hair is the essential part of the body for girls so i prefer long hair over short hair.
