    Long hair almost always looks better on women. Short hair is definitely less attractive to me. Most of the men I have spoken with agree with me. One style that is NEVER attractive is the pixie cut. Why would a man be attracted to a woman that looks more like a man? That doesn't even make sense.

    This doesn't make any sense to me either, but it happens all the time. A man will never intentionally make himself less attractive to a woman, but most women don't seem to care what men think. If men prefer women with shoulder length or longer hair, wouldn't it make sense that women shouldn't cut their hair super short (actually this is an oxymoron; real short hair is NEVER super). Do they do it just to spite the men who they are trying to attract? Ever heard of the saying, "Cut off your nose to spite your face." This saying applies here.

    It really depends on the person and how they look. I have long hair, it goes till the middle of my back. I personally don't like hair that goes much longer though because I just don't think it looks great, no offense. Long hair is beautiful though and you can do a lot more with it than with short hair.

    Its an individual thing. Some women look great with long hair. Some women look great with short hair. A woman with a really great face can get away with short hair even being bald.

    I'm a girl but I think long hair for most women usually looks better. There are a select few that I'd say look better with short hair, but not many. When I see someone with short hair, sometimes I'll picture it long and usually I think it would make them look prettier. I think most guys like long hair. It just looks more feminine.

    I usually like medium or long hair on women. Not many women look good with short hair.

    Long. Definitely. So much more feminine.

    Even for older women. I have heard many that say older women should have short hair. I am 50, and I still think women my age, and older, look good with longer hair.

    because of the fact some women persons cut back their hair too short and that they appear like adult males. I hate that maximum folk 50+ women persons cut back their hair to boy cuts. Their bodies are block shaped and and now they have a guy's hair cut back to flow alongside with it. smh are not getting me incorrect short hair could be warm notwithstanding if it incredibly is not thoroughly hacked off. i think of pixie cuts look good on ladies. yet often, I choose shoulder length or longer hair.

    I like mine really short. It's so much easier to care for. I still have enough length on top for curlers so I can set my hair for church, etc. The back and sides are really short, though. When it is this short, you will have stubble growing back on the back of your neck. I just have a friend shave my neck with a clipper around once a week.

    I think for one long hair looks best on young women till you decide to go gray. Sometimes hair looks great long and gray but other times not so great so i say when your older have shorter hair and when your younger long hair.

    I prefer short hair, like pixie length. It is such a refreshing look. Long hair is common and boring to me. I think you would be surprised to find out a lot of guys prefer short over long.
