Answer 1

Wizard.... Long hair won't make you beautiful, i know this sounds corny but its true: "beauty is on the inside". as far as first impressions go we as men do tend to snap our heads around quickly to look a woman with long hair. i know this probably isn't what you want to hear and it isn't something to be proud of , however it is honest.... personally upon first impression i see women with long hair to be more feminine looking (wich makes them atractive in a sexual kind of way even if they are overweight ect.) and the first thought when i see a woman with short hair is "Dyke"(wich makes them unatractive even if they do have other great features they are quickly over looked). i would suggest that if you feel that you need to have long hair... grow it out. If for some reason (cancer...ect. ect.) you can't grow out long hair like you want, consider a wig. at least with a wig you can get beond the initial first impressions of shallow guys like me. hope this helps... good luck.

Hi,

Time for some reality check here.

First of all, men do not dislike women with short hair and it sounds to me like you experienced one or more immature and ignorant boys who had nothing better to do that find some girl to pick on.

A real man will not qualify a woman on what hair style she has or doesn't have. Sounds like you are being really tough on yourself, and maybe it is time to see all your good qualities.

I very seriously doubt that you are ugly or retarded. Just by reading your question, I pick up that you are a very beautiful girl with a beautiful smile, and if you give yourself a chance, being very happy, and loving life, and liking yourself, and not put yourself down anymore.

Please understand that your sub conscious mind is very powerful and if it picks up on you constantly running yourself down, you will get the opinion just like you stated in your question.

Let me ask you this, how many times has your boyfriend told you that if you had short hair he would leave you? I know the answer to that, he hasn't, and he must really think you are special, or he would never have become your boyfriend.

Come to the understanding that you are the only one that doesn't like you. When you start seeing yourself as others see you, you will then understand how special and beautiful you really are, with short hair, long hair, or any hair style, as it only makes a serious difference to you.

I hope the above has been helpful to you, and get on the internet and check out hair restoration, as today, there are ways to restore your hair growth, and then think how happy you will be. A totatly new person.

You know what to do, and you know how to do it, now go do it!

Good question,

Darryl S.

Well you did not say what the problem is with your hair as far as it is due to health issues or what is .But i will tell you you do not need long hair to be beautiful-do not think that way-it is not true-thats like sying a person has to have blue eyes to be beautiful--and men do not hate women with short hair-sure some have a preference for long hair-but you dont want anyone that basis beauty on the length of your hair and only that

Answer 4

Men have short hair and do not date women who are more masculine than they are. Long hair represents health and virginity. Long hair is a sign of beauty and feminism. The girlyer the woman the better. I do not like women who wear men's clothes. Women with short hair are on the edge of becoming lesbian. I want to date a women not a man who was born a women. I'm not posting a nasty comment, I'm just simply being honest with you. I'm sorry if Brittany Spears stole your hair and made it into a wig. Try getting Hair extensions. I personally Love to run my fingers through a woman's hair. And I love to smell it. I'm sorry if I offended you in any way. Maybe you can date someone else.

Answer 5

I'm sorry to hear that you are feeling so unhappy about your hair or lack of it. If a man would reject you because of your appearance, then he does not love you. Is there a medical reason why your hair is short? Perhaps if it's so important to you, you should see a trichologist or dermatologist for a consultation. Frankly, I find short hair to be very attractive. Some men do like the look so don't assume that they all like long hair. Try not to focus on that one thing because it will keep you from enjoying other aspects of your life. You are probably a very attractive person, but if you are insecure you will sabotage yourself.

Answer 6

As a man I think I can say that we don't hate women with short hair. A good example is Halle Berry.
If there is some medical reason for your hair problem perhaps you should have your doctor refer you to a specialist.
My wife has short hair and she is yummy but on the other hand I have known women with beautiful long hair who were poor human beings.
You are not ugly or retarded but you do have self - confidence problems. Please confide in you doctor and try to get some help.
I hope you do well.

Answer 7

Is your bald head due to medical problems?Or is it something you do to yourself?Im sure theres certain characteristics in some men you dont like, you may not like a big fat belly on a man, well most men just arent attracted to a manly looking hairstyle on a woman.It doesnt make them bad or you evil, its just their preference.If your b/f has never seen your real hair then you are decieving him,yet if he would leave you over your hair, then he never did love you for you in the first place.If your hair is short because you cut it that way, then you may want to think about it, are you willing to be alone the rest of your life or play the deception game with wigs in order to have a guy?Is the short hair worth it?If it is a medical problem, dont worry youll find someone who loves you and understands there is more to you than hair.Thats because thats something you have NO controll over, cutting your hair off on purpose is something you DO have controll over.

Answer 8

If you are afraid that your boyfriend will ditch you because of your hair, ditch the boyfriend. On the other hand, give him a chance!? It might just be something that doesn't bother him all that much. Believe it or not, women with worse disability manage to date, marry and have families. On the other hand, I've talked to some men who have never seen their wives without their hair done and make up on. That sortof was weird to me, but ok..

I totally understand where you are coming from. It's really hard to be different when you are younger and you just hate it.

Answer 9

I prefer hair which is shoulder length or longer, As well as since that men who like ladies are more often then not right, they like long hair because this looks more feminine, as most guys have short hair.

Answer 10

My opinion is that you are beautiful to your partner because of who you are. YOu need to show him who you really are, a person with short hair. Any guy who leaves you because of that is not worth your time. You may love him but lover yourself more to notice that he obviously doesnt love you if he were to laugh or call you rude names. Be honest with him and trust him to not care. Eventually you will have to show yourself. And this is a good time. Dont feel like crap hair doesnt make the woman, the soul and mind make the woman. Be happy, because all woman are beautiful.
