No! The average mid-length (shoulder) hair is very mom-ish and boring. Long hair is great at any age as long as its properly maintained and healthy. Keep your long hair if you like it!

Yes, a woman does get too old for really long hair. Though that age varies from person to person.
A good rule of thumb to determine if your too old for your really long hair is simple; do you have the strength to brush it?
If the answer is yes then your not too old yet.
There are other factors to consider. Do you have chronic neck pain? Does your significant other find the really long hair an attractive feature?
Is your really long hair preventing you from getting that long sought after job at McDonald's ;) .
As long as you like yourself ,wear your hair as long as you wish. Just don't trip over it...

I'm 50 and I have long hair that is past the middle of my back. I love having long hair. I think as long as your happy, that's all that matters. I look way younger than my age, so I don't worry about it.

You should be who you are and if you look good with long beautiful hair then keep it by all means!
Remember 'age' is just a state of mind. I am 41 and look and feel like I am in my 30s. I have long beautiful healthy looking hair that keeps me looking years younger than I really am.

It depends. I think that a woman should leave her hair about shoulder length or shorter by the age of 50 or 55. Some people it depends on though, because of the structure of their face.

Umm yeah i really dont think you should have really long hair past like 30 but like I mean a little below shoulder length is ok, just not down to your butt.

I think it depends on culture. I noticed on the mainland us most older women have short hair and I hated it! here in hawaii, most women, of all ages, seem to have long hair. I love it!

I should not be about halfway down your back, around shoulder length would be great. If you don't look 40 then it depends on how old you do look
