Part of the reason why I'm trying to grow my hair long is because I think I will look prettier. I think I will certainly get more attention/hollerd at (not my intent) but I think that will happen.
 
When I get all dolled up and I drop the hair it makes me feel sexier. Feeling it brush against your back and loose strands flying in your face. All the people staring. I felt attractive with shorter hair also, but it was more of a Diva attitude.
 
I have always felt I look better with long hair. I have never personally had it, but when I wear extension or braids......
 
Yup...yeah i'm vain but I really feel like hair does make me look better. It doesn't make me "feel" better, because beauty coems from within. But when I'm in the room just a swingin my hair...it boosts my confidence, rounds my face out (i have a tyrahead) and I think it makes my booty lookk big loool J/P But I think I'll look kuter with longer hair
 
My last relaxer I was bummed cause it was raining out and I was all ready to wear my hair out swinging for a little bit. I went home to my parents house and got to show my mom (and eat some fried porgies :lick:) so that sufficed. I love being apl and now can't wait till i'm bsb and maybe even wl :eek2: ...
 
I've had both short hair (the infamous Halle Berry cut) and long hair. I think I felt attractive with both short and long, but in different ways. I felt more sassy with short hair than I do with long. However longer hair allows me to switch up a lot more according to my moods. For example, when I want a more funky, ethnic look, I can wear my hair big and curly, when I want a more conservative look, I can go with a bun, and I can wear my hair down or in an updo for a more romantic look. I recently saw a picture of myself with the short hairstyle. I liked it, but I think I've become more partial to longer hair at this stage in my life.


You took the words RIGHT OUTTA MY MOUTH!:yep:
 
I feel more attactive with longer hair. I got a short hair cut in junior high and the nicest thing anyone had to say about it was that my head looked like a strawberry :perplexed. With longer hair I can hide my strawberry head. I wore a short wig for a few weeks recently, and I have to admit that it did make be feel sassy (kind of like movie star glamourous). The last day I wore it I was shopping at the store for hair products because I was getting my hair relaxed that day, and a store employee trying to get my attention called me sir. No more short hair for me:nono:.
 
I deffinitly look and feel more attractive with longer hair. Most black men love long hair on women especially black women because it's different.
 
I think I may have agreed before, but ever since I BC'ed and started wearing my hair natural, I have gotten 10 million times more compliments than I ever did with my much longer, relaxed hair...I used to think I wouldn't look cute with shorter hair and that it wouldn't fit my face, but once I did it...I felt gorgeous:Rose:...even without the compliments from everyone else...so I would have to disagree...I want my hair to be big and curly, but that's totally superficial...however the way I feel? Beautiful with my lil short, natural 'do:grin:

ITA. I would try and hide behind the hair and blend in...now that I've BC'd I have way more confidence and I too get a lot of compliments. But I wil l say that I like both ways. Short and Natural or Long and relaxed. I don't think my hair is going to grow down... Lol
 
My vision is to have hair like Diana Ross' when she did a free concert in central park.

She looked like the epidomy of fabulousness to me. I want all that hair covering me. I want to feel it everywhere.

I think hair is beautiful, our crowning glory as the Bible says.

I totally agree. For me short hair makes me feel sassy, put together and sexy. Long hair makes me feel sexy, confident and beautiful. Notice that sexy falls in different order. At this point in my life, I don't want to portray sassy. I'm getting older and I want to look as sexy and beautiful on the outside as I feel on the inside.
 
Wow! I thought I was the only one that felt this way. I believe I look much better with long hair; therefore, I feel better with long hair.
 
I could never do hair past my shoulders. Shoulder length works for me. I always admired the hairstyles of the 50s and 60s..think Diana Ross, Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor. And those styles require shoulder length to make it work. For me, anything past the shoulders becomes a nuisance.

I agree!:yep::yep::yep:
 
I do because long hair is something I've always wanted (still have a long way to go) and since I dont see many black women with long healthy hair (thankfully that is changing) I feel a bit unique.
 
when i get long midback to waist length hair omg...
that will be sooo hot!:yep:

I feel the same. When I think of myself with poss. midback length hair..cotttamm!! I may have to try to get my own phone number!

I feel/look attractive with short hair and no hair. But something about long hair just adds a whole nother layer of sexi-confidence. My hair is only SL but I haven't worn it this long since 1999...and I already notice a vast difference in my appeal to our XY brethren...it probably also is because I'm just feeling more attractive with longer hair and giving off diff. energy.
 
i think as my hair grows longer, i look nicer. i didn't feel like i looked good until about 7 months into being natural; i had days where i did feel like i looked nice but i think for the majority of the time i was still dealing with having very short hair. i felt i looked like a boy so less pretty, didn't have any styling options which contributed to feeling less attractive etc. in the past when my hair had been short, it would be braided so i didn't have to deal with it 24/7.

my hair was something like 2-1.5 inches when i bc'd and is now 4.5-6 inches but since it's so thick and stands up, it can look pretty big :). in hindsight, i think i looked nice with short hair but i didn't feel it. now i look it and feel it; i think when my hair gets longer i will look more attractive. i don't think i will necessarily feel any different about myself though since my self-esteem has grown a lot (this was not all down to my hair getting longer) and i'm in a very good place with myself. i suppose i will see if my mindset changes when my hair is long.

I know what you mean , I had the shoulder length:locks: pretty girl look, in my twenties, the sassy short cut :ban:in my 30's I want hello dolly :gorgeous:hair in my 40's.....you heard me :rolleyes:
 
I feel more attractive with long hair, when ever I wear my long weaves I just think it makes me look like a completely different person. So i can't wait until its my goal length (14 inches). Its growing though so i'll be there by feb next year hopefully:yep:. Plus i'm short, with longer hair i look taller.
 
I have to agree. Long hair is so hot!!!!! ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR BLACK! :grin: Health and shine is pretty important too- to me at least.
 
:yep: Yup. I've never had short hair so...I really don't know WHAT i'd feel like with it but I can imagine and I don't like what I'm imagining lol.
 
I felt attractive when I did BC but I didn't really care for the in between stage of being natural. Now that my hair is long, I definitely feel that I stand out more as a Black woman, but I don't feel any more attractive. So with the exception of the in between stage, I feel just as attractive with short and long hair.
