Hi all, I'm new to this board but am really enjoying it. Currently I've been growing my hair for about 9 months (shoulders!), and I really am enjoying it. I started to grow it because I decided that I like hair. I like my hair, and I like everyone else's. It's just nice.
So I'm wanting to ask about how women feel about guys with long hair. Many of my female friends seem to, but that's a rather small and selective subset.
The general consensis seems to be that the majority of women, at least in America, Canada and Australia (the countries that I have experienced in the first-person), perfer short(er) hair on men. Furthermore, it seems to be that though some women like "longer" styles, many have limits (i.e. chin, shounders, etc.)
However, it does seem to the be the case that the percentage of women who DO like long hair on men is greater than the percentage of men who actually HAVE long hair. Meaning that though it may be frustrating dealing with the female's majority's taste for short hair, there is a shortage of long-haired men for the women who like them. Also, it seems to be that attraction to long hair in men is most prevanent in women from around 25-40, based on what I have heard as well as from who I have recieved compliments.
thats cuas where all such studs :P
ive found that about 50 percent women i know like me growing it long. The other half either dont like it or just comment on its current state, the "awkward stage"
Just a quick note to say: You have cool hair man!!
Here in Ireland, there are a lotta long haired guys, seriously. in my school year alone (5th year), there are six boys with long hair including me. as in long, long. not kurt cobain long or emo haircuts or the shaggy look or whatever. I mean, LONG. The same or longer than mine.
I love guys with long hair. I think many women associate laziness and immaturity, and/or femininity with long hair, and therefore some are less inclined to lust after men with long hair. I don't really care as that leaves more for me!
Redleader has a good point. Also, women who like short hair, tend to just take it for granted, whereas women who like long hair tend to go crazy for it.
I don't know why most girls don't like it. I myself can't imagine life without long hair. Actually, my love for it is now a full-blown fetish. I'm constantly complimenting strangers about their hair--while trying not to visibly drool. ~LOL~
If only there were many more girls like the ones who posted in reply to 'charles'..
anyway, i know only a couple of girls who like long hair on guys.. one from school and one from outside.
I know many girls that love guys with long hair. My very special german lady friend likes me whether I am shaved headed or whether I am hair down to my ass but she does enjoy me when I have my long hair.
I'm female and I LOVE guys with long hair, especially around shoulder length. It's gorgeous and sexy. What more can I say? Short/shaved hair it so boring and common on men!
I am a woman and I also LOVE long haired men, most of the men I know with long hair have much nicer hair than me! I do not think I am in the minority, its just that most young people are taken in by current fashions and peer presssure, it takes time sometimes to find yourself, know what I mean? But 'we' are out there!
