Hi guys. I need some support. I am at the 5 month mark and posted and was about to meet a woman online for coffee. I told her about my journey to get to the year mark (6 inches) and she told me that "it wasn't her thing" and cancelled the date before even seeing what I looked like! I am feeling a little bit angry that people can be so shallow. I am also a bit disappointed. I'm not going to cut my hair, but I am frustrated. I am hesitant to post new pics on my profile because I am in the awkward stage and want to wait until I hit the year mark. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Consider yourself lucky. With an attitude like hers she is
definitely not worth it. A shallow type person who judges
a book by its cover.
When you find one who values you for who you are and not
what you look like then you've struck gold. And if you find
one who likes long hair on guys thats even better.
Some of the more interesting women out there are ones that
like long haired men.
Dude...ignore her...you are a guy that knows his own mind!
be glad you found out before you would have gotten serious about her, or vise versa, and that would have broken it off.
Sorry to hear about that... but .. at least you know now....
When I was younger my girl said she loved long hair on men....
..... then years later changed her mind and I was getting haircuts...
....(dont see each other anymore now)
All the best.... The Spaf Man
Try to show as much of your hair as possible for your profile photo on the dating site. You want to weed out the naysayers ASAP.
I told the woman who would become my wife on our second date how important long hair was to me and I went further. I even told her about my online presence connected to having long hair. All of this was totally cool with her AND she loved my long hair.
Women like this are out there and they're worth finding and waiting for. Do NOT be ashamed of who you are. Be confident and you'll attract the right woman.
I'm gay, and I occasionally get the same thing, even though my hair is only 10" at it's longest length just yet. When I had my hair down to my shoulders years ago, I found there were always guys who either hated it or really loved it. Same is true now, but a lot more guys love my hair longer than shorter. The beauty is that I am lucky to have my same hairline as 20 years ago!
I agree you should post pics that show off your hair and weed out naysayers. You should only want to attract people who like you as you!
Since you know that it would be a lost cause anyways, you may as well go for broke and send a witty/pithy line.

Also, for images, tuck your hair into a cap.
Chics who prefer guys with short hair just like guys with short hair. Those who like guys with long hair tend to LOVE the way longhaired men look, to the point of being almost fanatical about it. Put yourself into this statistical minority, and you will increase your market value within this niche tremendously.
