Why do women like hair so much?

[Anonymous]

I've noticed that when my hair looks good I get response from women but when it looks bad they pay no attention to me. Why is it so important?

We do too, don't we? Imagine a girl who hasn't touched brush in months. Uncared for, greasy, obvious tear and so on. That isn't very attractive. I find it natural that would be the same the other way around.

To top it off, it is a visible sign of how much you care about your own maintenance. Hints at your health. Is often tied to other positive attributes.

Aaaand lastly one bonus, women in general have a better understanding than men do when it comes to the challenges of good hair care and so are more likely to appreciate the quality of it than a guy who wakes up and rolls with a hand or two through the hair as the process to get ready and owns one mixed bottle for shampoo, balsam, conditioner etc.

Thanks for that. But yes maybe I should have gone more into detail. It seems that it's not that on bad days my hair is dirty, it just seems like the style they don't like. I wash my hair regularly and try put effort into looking good but on certain days they seem repulsed by my hair style and then on others they like it a lot.
