I never like toooo long hair on ME. On other people it can look pretty. I think the limit I would want for me is layered BSL. Anything other than that on me, is toooooo long. But, it looks good on other gals!

To me, anything past hip bone length looks old fashioned. Very little house on the prairie. I can only say this about white women though because I've never seen a black woman with her past waist length. Maybe it looks different on us.

Girl please, I can't wait to have your length.
Your hair is beautiful and very feminine. I am just letting my hair grow right now. I'm focusing on healthy hair. But I would love to have hip length hair. Long hair for me past the waist is very feminine. I just love it. I can't wait to play in it and where the hairstyle that I have running around in my head. 
My biggest hurtle right now is clipping an inch from my ends.erplexed

I just had a Crystal Gayle mental picture. I just want to braid it or play in it. I don't think that she wears her hair down all of the time.
I bet she can do mah-velous buns.
but honestly, I didn't think that it did her pretty face justice. It makes my 'brown eyes blue' to see it hanging on the ground.

On me, I prefer APL. Anyhting longer makes me look old. But I don't think a certain length looks BAD per se.

Re: At what Length is hair no longer flattering??? (Warning this may be controversial
Okay I posted one earlier that said, BSL. NO, I meant APL, also. ANything longer would make me look tired. ANd it MUST have layers, especially shorter laters in the front. Longer hair in the front really does my face NO justice.

i saw a girl with tail bone length hair, and it was braided and it looked healthy and nice, she was probably 16-ish. but i think thats a bit too much hair though, i'm sure it'd get annoying.

For me its that length where my hair starts to look straggley I know that is not a word but you know what I mean. I love my hair to constant look full and not look a H.A.M just for length. Right now I envision that be WL at most however it could be shorter once I see MBL and how I am feeling about that. I also take into consideration care. It takes me hours now I know that once it gets longer its going to take more time and that might be time I don't have.

for me, MBL. im 5'1. for me, too long hair on short women overwhelms her. plus, all that hair, i can only imagine the time it will take to detangle/straighten/braid/whatever i want to do with it.

Poka, you have no reason to feel bad, you know your hair is gorgeous!
Although I know how you feel since my hair is now at/past the length that a lot of people have said is unflattering.
Oh well, to each her own right?

For my hair texture, I think anything past MBL is too much of a hassle. If I could ever reach MBL, I'd keep my hair trimmed to that level or shorter.

I'm not a fan of anything past BSL or maybe MBL unless it's layered
That goes for all ethnicities. I don't think many people besides hair forum members aim for hair longer than that - most of the time they're overdue for a haircut!
