I think long hair is seen as desirable and something that can often take dedication/hard work. Thus many people find it impressive when someone has it. I believe when people say, "you have long hair" they are often being nice and complimenting that person. Hence why some people feel the need to say thank you.
I don't see the confusion as to why "you have short hair" is not viewed as a compliment - it's simply not seen a desirable attribute (that's not to say it's ugly though) in many cultures. When someone has short hair, it seems people specifically compliment another quality about the hair (thickness, shine, the layers etc).
