What does v short hair say about a woman?

Just that really. I was having my (very short) hair cut yesterday and my hairdresser and I were talking and she said that she thought that women with short hair had to be very confident because they had nothing to 'hide behind' and that short hair suggested self assurance to her. I've never thought of myself as self assured so found this really interesting...so, whether you have short hair or not, what does very short hair say to you about a woman?

My short hair was so short (and well cut) that it was wash and go.

I’m still enjoying my long hair at the moment though. I let it dry naturally and it’s fine. My hairdresser agrees I don’t need to faff with it. It just dries acceptably. Of course, when she blow dries it after it’s cut, it’s very “done” and I like that too.

My 16 year old son has long hair too. It’s really thick, shiney and has a bend in it naturally. Lucky boy!

Having had both, short hair was more hassle than long hair - mine is super curly (and pretty bright red) so I looked like a red poodle most of the time with the crop and spent ages trying to tame it with product.

Now, mine is past the shoulder, the weight keeps it manageable and I dry it in pin curls to make nice glossy hair.

To answer the OP question, I don't really think anything about women with short hair except wonder - if they are curly - whether they have the same upkeep problems as I used to Grin.
