At what point is long hair a no no????????

[Nemo2007]

Just wondering as at the min have very long hair but am 30 this year and am trying to decide if it is time to have it cut off??

short hair looks stooopid on me. i chopped it off myself in a fit of hair rage one night years ago. it didnt look pretty! although i should have known that, because i'd had it short before...had pmt at the time so i blame it on that.

Nemo! You are way too young for a midlife crisis! Ultimately it's a personal choice - as a few people have pointed out, it is a case of whether it suits you or not. I admit I am lucky in that I have pretty thick hair that is easy to keep in good condition - most of my family go grey early (I have a few gray hairs) but still have lovely thick hair. My nan had lovely hair that only became thin when she became very ill. I have had short hair but it doesn't suit me, but my mum does and it suits her very well - though she didn't go short until she was in her late thirties, up to then she had lovely long hair - though she does dye it regularly! Both she and I have very dark brown hair, though she dyed hers red for years but now she is blond and it suits her. You've got to just find a style that you are happy with that's easy to maintain.

the thing is friends would say 'no don't cut it it looks great' - no one is going to say 'it looks yuk' are they?

a friend of ours has long hair almost to her waist and is late thirties - it looks like old hippie hair now - Its thick, good condition etc but just looks old-fashioned. Shes lovely and attractive slim etc but her hair does nothing for her really

bloody hell Nemo I hope the answer is a lot older than 30!!

I've had short hair all my life - couple of inches all over and usually spiky - but after having ds2 (my biological ds) I felt an overwhelming urge to grow my hair - I felt that I needed it long for him to play with (hormones are soooo bizarre...). He's 3 tomorrow and my hair is growing down my back and everyone says it's the best it's ever looked and I absolutely love it. Am hoping to keep it long for the forseeable future - and I'm 38!

I'm 43 and have a longish bob and will probably grow it longer over the summer.
Lou is beeeyewitfull!

30 is so young. Ridiculous to think you are too old for anything at 30.

often wonder this myself....

but, like, for the future

consider myself a wee young thing - am 29

I am another 34 yo with long ish hair - shoulder blades. I have a few greys though but have had my hair coloured for years. I don't think that darker people go grey more - it is just more noticeable when they do, because with blonde hair the grey blends in more.

lou is really beautiful isn't she...fabulous bone structure.

omg stoppit you guys!

And clearly lying about her age - Lou I cannot belive you could possibly be 40, you look way too young!
