I've been looking around on here and it seems that when people ask for hair advice they are usually told to get a shorter cut....
Is long hair (on females) out of style?

Long hair is totally hot and preferred by many!

Because it's summer, plenty of people will probably be looking for a shorter haircut to keep cool.
It also depends on the age of the person. Elderly people do not always look as attractive with longer hair as someone that is younger than them. But ultimately, it does not depend on age - it depends on the person and what length of hair suits them.
Long hair and short hair don't usually go in and out of style. If you look around, you see many lengths, colours and styles of hair - everyone is different. Even if long hair WAS considered unattractive, it wouldn't matter - you should be able to cut and wear your hair however you like it.

No, long hair is beautiful. Maybe people advise others to get a shorter cut because getting a longer hair is not so common (and it is very expensive), that's probably why. I have quite long hair and love it. It's true that short cuts are getting very popular again, but it doens't mean that long hair is old-fashined.

Definitely depends on how long. I would say waist length hair is certainly out of style. There are plenty of haircuts though that wouldn't be considered short that are really classy in style. A lot of the people recommending short hair are 13 year old punk rocker girls who have no idea about anything out side of their crush on Bryan the football player.

NO WAY! if you look at almost ALL celebs.. they have hair extensions in. right? well that's because long hair is SO BEAUTIFUL! It's only not in when ur hair starts looking frizzy and thin at the bottom, that's when it's too long and makes ur hair look old. also some long layours around the crown makes a long style look really fresh :)

I like long hair not short hair. And it depads on what tip of person you are what do you look better in. If you look better in long go with long hair if it is short go with short. You can do more with long not short hair so it's up to you long mens more worke and short mens lees worke so have fun and yes a lot of people will say short is in but i do not care what is in i say it's up to you do what you like and what you think what is best for you:)

No. I think short hair is becoming old and played. Everyone has it. You hardly see people with long, under-processed, healthy hair anymore. When people see people who have that kind of hair, I am sure they wish they hadn't cut off all there hair and dyed it. I am growing mine. Anyway, do what you wanna, fashion is fashion.

no way is long hair ever going to be considered unattractive just look at any magazine all you see are actors with long flowing hair weather it's fake or real, long will always be hot !!! and if that's not enough evidence then ask any guy ! they love girls with long hair !
old fashion is never considered old fashion it's called retro ! :)

If you know how to rock it its not a problem. Make sure it has nice layers and it does not look like a horse's mane. the only time it looks unattractive is when it is all one length and no one does anything about it style wise. So just find a nice cut with layers and manageable way to fix your hair everyday and its fine.

Long hair (when you keep it well) can be the sexiest part of women. And it was never and never will be out of style. Depend on what cloths you ware your hair can be curl, straight or you can make something using hair noddles...there is a lot of opportunities if you have enough imagination

I would say not.. I am attracted to women with long hair.. It is only how you manage to keep your long hair from splitting.. It is not out dated... I am a guy and i have long hair..My friends say cut ,but i say y? To look like everyone else..

No, diff styles look good on diff people. Whatever looks good on you. I think long hair is always great, as long as its vibrant and healthy. Not dull and dead and shapeless. No one would tell someone with beautiful shiny lively long hair to chop it off. Ever. Maybe that's why short is "in", so much easier to manage!

NO> Long hair is actually sexier than short, and guys love it. But sometimes girls let it grow WAY too long that passes ur lower back, and that's when I think it's not so attractive. I have long hair and I love it : )

omg! no i love long hair my hair is meduim and i been diein for it to grow longer so at the end of the summer it well be nice a long for the school year but its gonna be like 2 inches above my elbow for me thats really long... in the middle of the school year i was gonna get my hair cut becuase of my split ends and i told the girl to cut of an inch and she cut 5-7 inches of and i was so mad it took me forever to grow my hair and everyone at school was so shocked so was i.. it was up to my shoulders alittle above them...i think the only reason no one has long hair is becuase its really hard to control if u straigten it, it takes a long time also alot of people in my school love long hair but all of them have short to meduim hair just because how long it is to control and its summer everyone wants a short syle so they can get up and go and if there at the beach and they get wet they really don't gotta worry much

LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG
I can't say it enough, LONG hair is the best! the shorter
the hair, the lazier the woman (at least that's how men think)
Too lazy to maintain the long hair any more, so they cut it
and look like boys.
Oh lord, long hair is the best.

Well to me and as my personal opinion long hair is beautiful on a woman because is what makes awoman look very sensual and feminen and it also keeps the scent of a woman after a shower that drives men like me craaazzzyyy! ahaha! and so yeah I think that long hair on a woman is awesome! if you ask me.

no guys like the long hair, but just try not to have it too long. like, one time at skool this guy that has a crush on me overheard me telling my friends i was gonna cut my hair shorter like a little longer then my shoulders and he came up to me and said " no dont cut it. longer hairs hotter." it was funny but now i see that most guys like longer hair. =)

i love long hair but i would never grow it below my waist but if ur hair is curly like mine then i wouldnt want to cut it short but it does look good on some ppl if u like it then so wat other ppl might not like it i just have mine at 4 inches below my shoulder i think thats as short as i would go i dont think it has gone out of style but it is the style right now

Nope.
But to be truthful, it really depends on how well it looks on a girl.
Some women look beautiful with long hair, some look better when its short.

some men and other women think its attractive cause it sometimes make out the person's face but it say the hair styles dont make a person the person makes a hairstyle

no, many stars have long hair, and so do i. i think it looks great, and my hair stylist said that long sometimes certain hairstyles are just better for you face, i have had short but its not for me. so it really just depends on what looks good on you. i think long hair can be really pretty if you wear it the right way.

long hair is very attractive, but as you get older like in your4o's and up, women tend to look better and younger with shorter hair. but it all depends on how you like it and what you feel looks best for you, not what society mandates and feels that looks best on people.
although collectively, we make up being "the people", however, you are an individual who is different than everyone else. so look at what you like best for you and you feel looks best on you.

there is not something incorrect with long hair. notwithstanding, it relies upon on how long. i could say that something previous shoulder length is submit dated. To be honest nevertheless, some human beings do not seem good with shorter hair, notwithstanding it rather is the shape now.

No, no, no, please don't say it's so...
Beauticians are a little lazy in that regard, it takes more effort to care and style long hair (twists, braids, french braids, plaits, etc) than short. So easy to cut it off! So long to let it grow! "Go short for the summer", but how can you go long for the winter?

No way. I wear my hair long and down (straight or curly).
in florida the curly look seems popular. so i dont want to straighten mine anymore or I will start to miss it. :(
anonymous
2007-07-03 12:10:08 UTC
nope in fact long hair is very popular now.
the reason why people might be telling you to cut your hair is because its summertime.
i have long hair and its very attractive and everyone around me agrees. =))

its how you style it that matters. if it looks healthy and is taken care of properly then long hair is a stunning look.

Actually....its all about personality, looks, and the shape of their face. All of that determines what kind of haircut that would add and show off their good looks.
