To think hair length does not have anything to do with age?

[Looby12]

Two colleagues at work were just talking about hair, colleague 1 (mid 20's with shoulder length hair) said she had a trim before xmas and will be keeping an eye on the length as she wouldn't want to get to "that point", colleague 2 looked confused, colleague 1 said "you know when its that length when you are too old for it and look nice from behind but turn round looking all haggard". Cue embarrassed looks as they both realised I could over hear and I have much longer hair (i'm only aged 35 by the way)

The cheeky bugger, since when can older people not have longer hair???

Would I be unreasonable to say to her its not her hair that is the problem its her face!

I am 49 and look it. I alternate between longish (just below shoulder length) hair and a bob. To be honest I prefer a bob as my hair can go a bit too straight for my liking when it's longer, but longer is also more versatile and means I can get it out of the way when it's hot. For all I know people my be surprised when I turned round but they've never mentioned it and it's not something I've ever worried about. I want my hair to suit my tastes and personality, not what some arbitrary rule says suits my age.

Haha ghosty I was totally confused when I found my own comment on this thread and wondered who had stolen my username.

Then I realised it was almost 2 years ago.
