Pixie Cut... Yes or No?

Men have a tendency to decide on when somebody is an attractive partner very quickly (i.e. by looks), and at that point can be turned off by a crappy personality.
Women, however, often don't tend to place such pressure on men in terms of an attractive physique but more on an attractive personality (or assets, though increasingly less so nowadays when nobody has any ), which means finding somebody attractive can often happen over time.

Obviously, that's not to say that both cases don't happen in both genders and the results are obviously very different for non-heterosexuals, but that is where their prevalence lies.

I think women do that as well tbh: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1338064/Youve-got-7-seconds-impress-How-size-men-time.html

inb4 "daily fail lol"

Huh, interesting. I didn't really know that. I guess that's true, I've known guys but not really thought about them in that way and then you talk to them for a bit and find them more attractive. But it doesn't necessarily have to be a long acquaintance, I know girls who get crushes at the drop of a hat.

I think I'll need to make some little investments

As well as it being the Daily Fail, it was also based more assumptions being made about personality than "Is he hot? Yes/no".



Sure - like I said, it happens. There're probably a few guys out there who have fallen in love over time, I just don't know any of them.

Yep, as I suspected, you consider yourself to be a special flower. "I don't adhere to the rules of biology, look at me!"

Pathetic

There is no rule which states that I should spend my life basing my decisions on whether or not somebody finds me attractive.

Can you honestly not see how I couldn't care less what people think of the way I look?
We live in a messed up society where it seems that everybody is brought up to care about looks far too much.

I feel it is wrong to base your decision on someone entirely on looks, but hey - I guess you've all proved that I'm 'pathetic' for being like that.
How sad.

To me, personality is what is 'attractive', so to speak. I get that other people believe it is entirely based on looks, or something in the middle, but hey, that's my opinion.

Opinions aren't ever wrong. You can't be told what to think.

I personally think that a pixie cut can look gorgeous. However, it would help if you had defined cheekbones or something because on a slightly 'fatter' face I can't see it working

I've been thinking about this for ages and I can't make up my mind, so I thought I'd ask the wonderful (and slightly opinionated ) people on here for some opinions.

Right, I've been going through a lot lately, and I feel like it's time for a lot of change in my life. I'll be starting college in September, which I believe is a good time for a 'fresh start' so to speak.

I'm pretty fed-up with my hair at the moment, because it's too long for me to handle. I used to have hair down to just above my hips, and I cut it last year up to shoulder length. It's now down to below my boobs again, and in really bad condition. I guess having long hair just isn't my thing anymore

And, to those of you who'll say 'why don't you just put it up everyday', I do, that's the thing. I don't see the point of having long hair when it's always tied up or in a bun It's pointless.

What is it exactly that makes men hate short hair on women?

So, do you like short hair on a girl - what makes you have that opinion?

And if anyone on here has had experience with Pixies, let me know what you love or hate about the look

Here's a photo of the sort of length I'd go for:

A lot of people say my best features are my smile and cheeks, so I'm kinda hoping a Pixie would bring that out
I can't be sure that it will work at all though, so I just have to hope

Because you care what people think about your appearance, am I right?
I notice you haven't replied to my question. Admitting you're wrong?

Nope, because I'm trying to make myself more confident with the way I look, so bringing out my stronger features would help.

Replying to you isn't necessary on this thread, because I don't want to continue your argument.

The guys on this site have a real issue with short hair. I have a pixie and still get plenty of male interest, and wouldn't be interested in any guy shallow enough to write me off based purely on my hair. Of course I realise some men prefer long hair, but I think if it's a deal breaker then that is pretty pathetic.

If YOU want to cut your hair then do! Personally I love my hair short. Like you, mine is dead straight and so when it's long it's impossible to get any volume into and it just hangs there. Short hair is brilliant for bringing out facial features, particularly eyes and cheekbones. I would actually disagree with the idea of trying a bob first to see if you like it, as I had a bob once that did nothing for me and I grew out straight away, but loved my pixie from the start. I would base your decision on what you want to do with your hair and what a hairdresser thinks would suit you rather than what a bunch of people on a message board say though.

Great advice, thankyou!
What is it about having short hair that makes you love it so much?
