I have long strawberry blond hair and a week ago I was on a date with the the guy I am seeing and my hair was blowing in my face and I said something about needing to get a hair cut. His reaction was "No don't cut it, your long hair is really sexy". I said I was just talking about a trim, lol don't panic! :laugh:

 

Which made we wonder, what is it about long hair that guys are attracted to?

Short hair makes chicks look like dudes.

How short are we talking here? I think some girls look great with short hair... like Jawline to shoulder short!

 

Tanbark is right though... manly haircuts are never attractive... Think Janet Reno!

:rolleyes: LOL Obviously there are some really short hair styles that do make you do a double take and wonder, was that a guy or girl? You know we have all done it! But there are also shorter girly hair styles too.

So why does long do it for a lot of guys VS the below jaw line/to shoulder shorter hair styles?

 

What do you prefer and why?

 

I have had my hair very short to very long and in between. What my hair is like has always been because of what I want. But I am still curious.

I definitely prefer long hair to short hair. I don't know if any of the following are the root reason, but they're at least part of the reason.

 

Long hair just seems more decorative. Long hair vs. short hair is kind of like when peacocks have their tail feathers flared vs. not flared. Also, the way long hair bounces and sways with a woman's movement tends to make her more beautiful.

 

It's also hot as hell when a girl is naked and her long hair is draped over her breasts partially covering them. Along the same lines, I really like when a girl is on top during sex and her hair is dangling in my face and spilling onto my chest.

 

Shoulder-length hair is fine but shorter than the jaw line just isn't the same anymore. It doesn't move the same way and it just makes her seem more stiff overall.

you know, i've always wondered this, too. i think the reasons tan suggested may generally be on target. i know i always figured that it was sex-related in some way. i remember reading somewhere that guys like long hair because they are better able to pull it during sex, but i dunno.

 

i remember i used to have really, really long hair--down to my waist. it'd look pretty cool when i straightened it, but my exbf would always make comments that made me think he liked short hair better, so i chopped it all off and ended up with really, really short hair. think above the shoulders.

 

bad move on my part.

Yeah, pretty much anything between jawline and mid-back is just damn sexy. Too long and I think "70's Hippie", too short makes them look like dudes. Get around shoulder length and you can have "handle bar" action going on! I just think most guys are attracted to feminine women, and short hair just doesn't portray that...

long hair = girls , short hair = guys . and why we like/ prefer something or not is not answerable , its different & personal for everyone.

 

i prefer longer hair on women cause i have very long hair :laugh:

I know it's a personal preference and is going to be different for everyone, which is why I ask to get a variety of opinions.

 

I think really long hair, around the butt is kinda gross. The kind you see one those older woman who look like they have never had a hair cut their whole life.

 

Mine is a few inches past my shoulder blades (straight). Strawberry blond is a combination of red and blond. If you look closely at the hairs you will see hairs that are bleach blond to dark auburn red and varieties of red and blond in between.

I tend to let my hair grow long, down to my shoulders. Even though shaved heads are the current trend, I have always found women, who find my hair to be an attractive feature. Maybe it is the bad boy rebellion thing. Maybe it is because I have such beautiful hair. I like women with long hair. I don't find short hair very appealing.

 

Ever so often, when I let it get longer, I get guys whistling, or hooting at me only to discover that they have been getting excited over a guy. They will curse at me, “Get a hair cut, damn hippie”. I find it funny.

I have to agree with the long hair thing.

 

A large majority of the men I know LOVE long hair.

 

My hair has been everything from very short (above the jawline) to very long.

 

My hair is currently a few inches above my waist. My bf loves long hair (and has told me as much). If I were to cut my hair, I'm sure he wouldn't flip, but he would probably secretly pine away for the long glossy locks.

 

I think it has a lot to do with what each of us defines as being feminine. Me, I think some women with short hair are ultra feminine.

 

I do have to admit that long hair gets you noticed a lot more than short hair.

I don't care if it's hot or not. I use to have long long hair talking past the butt and believe me it was a pain in the a**. Know how long it took me to straighen that damn mane? :laugh:

 

Right now my hair is below my shoulders and I don't look like a dude.

Posted

It gives us something to pull while doing the deed from behind.. :)

 

IMO It's feminine.. long hair on guys is girlie and short hair on girls is guyish..

Posted

I've pretty much always had long hair. It's about 5 or 6 inches past my shoulders.

 

Long hair on men:sick:

Short hair can look good on women, especially if she has nice eyes

WHat about men with no hair on top, but they grow the ring of hair long, like Benjamin Franklin

?? "Ring of hair"?? Whazzat?

Posted

Ip, I don't know..I was never into that look even in the 80's. I like a more clean cut looking man.

 

Nope, never been into the Benjamin Franklin look. I think Alexander Hamilton was sexy though. I would have done him.

I don't like long hair on men.

 

With the exception of the comb-over, of course. Nothing hotter than like a balding head sparsely covered by long, spaghetti-like hair strands.

...i have very long hair :laugh:

 

Which is it?

About why men like long hair on women: I'll be pedantic and attribute it to the simple theory of natural selection. The natural mating instinct is to pick the healthiest, most fertile-looking partner.

 

The woman with healthy (and therefore long, in the old days) hair, indicates that her hormones (estrogen in particular) are at a healthy level. Which in turn indicates the ability to reproduce.

THAT is the question, indeed. WHICH hair.

Do you have a source or a link that states that? Where did you hear that?
