Guys, Long or short hair for a girl?

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

By short I mean like shoulder length.

First, welcome to Girls Ask Guys, Larissa.

We often use the abbreviation G@G here.

As to your question, I think that the answer is that it depends on a few factors...

First, how round is the girl's face; short hair cuts - like pixie cuts - work better with angular faces.

Second, is she overweight? A big girl would look more like a Figure 8 with a short haircut like a bob. Long hair definitely works better for them like plus-size model Ashley Graham.

Also, the combination of hair color, skin color, and clothes color may play into it... It's hard to explain, but, under some circumstances, it may be better to have short hair, but, in others, long hair.

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

ok thanku. She isn't overweight, tan skin n brown hair n brown eyes, roundish face.

[abc3643]

How tall? I forgot to include that as a factor.

It may not matter - in this case, I suspect a "short" haircut is OK, but it also depends on "how short?/style?"

For instance, a bob and a pixie cut are radically different.

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

5'6" ft tall. and like shoulder length

[abc3643]

Oh, that's fine. Are we talking about you?

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

lol yea

[abc3643]

I am sure you are a pretty young lady and your hair will be fine. When I was your age, I likely crushed on a few girls built just like you with short haircuts like that. In fact, back then (1977), many girls had short haircuts because it was popular mostly due to this young lady:

Dorothy Hamill, a figure skater who won the Gold Medal representing the USA in the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria.

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

ok thanks

[Weapon77]

Depends! Either the front or back has to be long, but they don't both have to be. I can send examples pictures in PM if you need them. But basically, if a guy could wear that haircut and look good, it's not great on a female. But something short in the back with long bangs, various bobs, and some other styles look great. All around long hair is awesome though. But there are tons of examples of cute short hairstyles that some Swedes, Japanese, and other ladies will wear that guys love. I can think of several in my head

[Wraith_Cemetery]

Shoulder length isn't short. Why do girls keep calling it that? TRULY short hair is a pixie cut or buzz cut. Shoulder length has a lot of length to it still.

Anyway, I like shoulder length a lot. Any shorter than that is too short for me.

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

okayy thanks

[BradleyinOK]

Ohhhh,

Shoulder length is all when you say short? I see. Honestly it depends on the woman. Some women can't pull off shorter hair. Someone can't pull off longer hair. It would all really depend overall face structure, type of hair, complexion, etc.

[BradleyinOK]

Are you asking for yourself?

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

yea lol

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

ok thanks

[snackthatsmilesback]

Oh. Well I like short like pixie cuts. Fucking hot on a woman rlly short hair. But I don't mind like shoulder length hair. It can also be hot. Personally don't like super long hair tho. Just not my type.

[Wish4UrB00ty]

Personally I like longer. But I have seen quite a few hair cuts that is shoulder or even shorter. My ex couldnt even grow hers to her shoulders.

[Sixgunsound]

Subjectively I prefer long hair on women, but I'm not the one wearing it nor do I fail to acknowledge that there are situations where short hair looks great.

[Mansearching]

It all depends on person. Example, a full figured gal can look good with long hair and another one wouldn't. She'll look good with short. A model figure or a couple sizes bigger the same thing.

[Summeroflove]

Depends on the woman really. Everyone has their own style on what looks best on them.


I say so what you want.

[Adam1978]

Shoulder length is quite ideal length in my opinion. Anything longer is pointless and shorter they usually start looking masculine.

[Anonymous]

Depends on the size shape and symmetry of her face and facial features

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

yea ik what u mean

[jshm2]

Bald headed woman

[AnUglyBarnacle]

Waist length.

[HighValue]

Shoulder length is fine. But the really short pixie cuts are gross. Same goes for unnatural hair colors (pink, blue, purple, etc.)

[Anonymous]

Short all the way, thought I don't judge after that and when I say short at least a bob haircut

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

oh damn u would be the first.

[Opinion Owner]

Really? Wdym?

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

lowkey pretty much everyone be saying long

[Opinion Owner]

Ohh didn't expected that, I was always in love with short hair on women, especially bob haircuts for example this


But I also love even shorter like pixie

[TheUniqueOne96]

Both seem fine, but a bit longer sounds better.

[AimeeKyle]

I prefer Long hair on women. With that said, I have seen several women with short hair that are extremely beautiful too, I just haven’t dated any of them.

[AviatorTom]

I prefer hair on a woman that is at least shoulder length.

[Titanic1912]

It doesn’t matter. Whatever she’s comfortable with. It’s not mine, it’s hers. She can wear her hair however she wants.

[Anonymous]

No preference as long as it is not cut in a sort bob or pixie cut. A few girls can look feminine with that cut but not most girls.

[DavidRaul]

I would prefer long but some women look cute with short hair too

[Fireguy17]

it doesn't matter, I am dating the person not the hair.

[Mangospacho]

Long hair looks good, in general. I wouldn’t hate shoulder length hair, though. I also wouldn’t consider that to be short hair.

[Furious_Revelation19]

I think it depends on the girl! Both look great to me under certain circumstances.

[kramchancel]

As a balding man, I love when girls have long hair.

[Paulychicagoluv]

Really it's dependent on her. Some could look good in short, and some could look good in long.

[Anzyy]

Honestly, recently I've had a thing for short hair. It's really beautiful on some girls. By short I also mean shoulder length

[art84]

I prefer long hair as long as it isn't super long. Maybe in a pony tail.

[Sparkie460]

I like longer hair on women. The shortest I like is breast length

[Damian69]

I'm a sucker for long wavy hair on women, but it really depends

[LimitedBenefits101]

Long = feminine, str8

Short=tomboy, lesbian.

Long the best.

[Brando10222]

Doesn't matter as long as it looks good on her

[ur_gurl_Larissa]

[Brando10222]
