Should I cut my hair?
Every time I do, I hate it, and end up growing it out again. It's already busting 90 during the day here, and my hair is all one length, halfway down my back. I can't have it up all day or I get headaches from the weight.

What do you think? Should I cut it? Should I let it keep growing?

1. Let It Grow
I'm a fool for long hair.

2. Cut it -- low maintenance and sassy.
Plus, you can always grow it out, as you said.

3. ugh I know what you mean
I love my long hair - last time I had it short was 20 years ago, but god its a hassle and so heavy. But its just something I refuse to act my age about! I refuse to be a middleaged helmet head!

4. What about trimming it to shoulder length?
You can pull it back and make pony-tails, etc.

UGRR :hi:

6. That's probably what I'll end up doing
I have to be able to pull it up or I'll go crazy.

7. Well, I'm a guy with my hair halfway down my back....

...If I can do it, you can to....

On edit: A pony tail usually works best for me on hot days.

8. No!
I am 40 years old and haven't had long hair in a long time. I decided that as long as georgie is in office, I am growing this shit. It looks like hell, but I don't care.
Let it grow for all those who have lost their lives in fuckfaces bullshit war.
That's my piece :) (or peace)

9. Maybe if you posted a pic of yourself, we could help
Because it is obvious that your most important concern is the way you look.

Show us what you look like, and perhaps we can give you an informed opinion instead of a wild guess.

11. If I had batteries for the damn digital camera I would
Never can remember to get them when I'm out.

Really, it's not an important concern...Was just rubbing my sore head from the day long ponytail, and thought I'd ask.

15. ROTFLMAO
I used to say that I was going to shave my head and dye my scalp purple (on bad hair days). I lived with my grandparents when I was in high school...Grandma didn't think that was funny.

17. Did we have the same Grandma?
Mine would NOT put up with any sorts (as she put it) of non-behavior (as she put it again). She was really beyond her times in other matters but she could crack me up with her southerisms. I miss that woman desperately. One of a kind.

I hope your Grandma is still around to berate you. She's right, ya know.
:)

19. Let it grow.

Let your freak flag fly (thank you, David Crosby).

ed. - oh, sorry, I didn't realize you were a woman. I'd keep it long anyway -- I haven't cut mine since last June, and, yes, it probably weighs a couple of pounds, but I like it anyway.
