I frequently make longing noises about wanting a bob. Every time, I am assured by people I trust that a bob would be kinda horrible on me, and that I Must Not Get One. The fact that I'm going to get layers added to my hair on Saturday is kind of a big step for me.

Jilli, I think a bob would look good on you, if it's the right bob. It's a very versatile cut that can take a lot of different looks and silhouettes. But you gotta really trust your hairdresser to know what looks good on you. You could always try some wigs to see if there would be a compelling reason to cut it. Otherwise, why change something that works for you and looks good, to boot?

I can only do supershort if I stay below a certain weight. And cutting it seems to bring on the weight gain. My mother and aunts always had short hair, and I associate it with a certain middle aged stodginess.

I have very thick, slightly wavy, tangle-prone hair. It grows fast and looks good down to my waist. I am wanting it that long for the first time in a decade.

I start to freak when it touches my ears.

I got a pixie cut at age five when my cousin tried to "play barbershop." My mother fell to her knees and wept because she had maintained our (me & the twin's) hair very long and my aunt had to be the one to try to repair the damage.

I've never had regrets nor missed my long hair.

Gadget Girl you're going to be in my neck of the woods? I missed why hope it will be a fun trip.

I need to be packing to MOVE! But um I'm not. I'm chatting on SL with My Special Friend...and um, I did laundry. And took some books to the used book store but they didn't take all of htem so I have to hit another and then give the leftovers to goodwill.

Though, again, every time I've seen you and every picture of you that I've seen -- you have great long hair. It's healthy, it's shiny, the ends are even, it has shape and it bounces and sways and moves when you do, and you know how to put it up and how to make it look good when it's down.

Aw, thanks. But that is a tribute to Eagle the wonder hairdresser at this point-- as I've aged is has gotten distinctly thinner, etc. To my sorrow, I can't wear it nearly as long as I once did. If I braid it they are sad little twigs of braids and not the ropes they once were.

When it was shorter it deffinately looked thicker -- but he can layer with the length so I get to keep it looking nice.

But even if it didn't look that great I'd probably keep it long because when it was short I missed my hair pretty much cconstantly. I knew it looked nice short, but I missed having long hair.

I think everyone should wear what feels good to them -- and that its even more important than what looks good on them.

The depths of summer have tempted me to a buzz cut. I think auburn fuzz would look fun, and I want to see what my skull looks like. Hubby looked so authentically horrified at the thought that I feared for his heart and figured I could forego the Number 2 Rake.

So I would have Chrissy hair -- remember the doll where you could shorten or lengthen her hair by pulling and a button
