"Had a conversation recently with a friend and it got me thinking... Most older ladies all seem to have short/shortish hair.... Is there a cut off (no pun intended) at which a longer style doesn't work? " Not sure on cut off time but longer hair is aging on a lot of mature people | |||

I don't know why but my hairdressers always comment on how unusual it is for someone of my age to have long hair. Just over a hundred years ago no women had short hair until the twenties. My grandmother wouldn't have dreamed of cutting hers. | |||

I am going to say something slightly controversial now and I am not including all women in this but... Some women stop bothering after a certain age. They don't do their hair, think "this'll do, I'm not going anywhere" when they get ready to go to the shops, save their decent clothes'for best' and think make up is for special occasions only. (I know make up isn't necessary but you know what I mean). Then they say "since I got fifty I feel invisible" | |||

(I know make up isn't necessary but you know what I mean). Then they say "since I got fifty I feel invisible" " So true! Not in the least controversial in my view. Hair, especially long hair is synonymous with youth and fertility... Which is why some cultured prefer women not to flaunt it... I am certainly 50+ (ahem) and have hair down to mid back. I really don't have any trouble with it. I don't go to expensive hairdressing, just daily shampoo and conditioner. When it's damp I clip it up (think Katharine Hepburn in African Queen). When I do let it down (just before switching on camera for work meeting), I shush it up (for volume) and I sweep it over one shoulder. My bf loves smelling my hair... | |||

"It takes me about an hour to style mine. I use a Babyliss big hair and now and again straighteners. I only wash it twice a week though " I guess maintenance is a key decision factor. As Oriental I have very (and I mean VERY) straight hair so by twisting and clipping up when damp, that is an easy styling trick. When I do let it down, it's wavy and more volume... All our miles vary... | |||

"The wife who I'm pictured with on the green duvet was 52 at the time - the last photos that I saw of her showed she was still rocking the same long dark hair at 60... " Is your wife/ex wife aware her pictures are on here, out of curiosity? I've had shortish hair since I was 16 (shoulder length bob) then I cut it super short as it is now, when I had my daughter. I love my short style, I think it suits me far better than the longer styles. And Mr KC loves it | |||

"I'd shave all mine off if I had a better shaped face. At the moment it's quite long and looks nice when it's blow dried, straightened then curled; but I'm lazy and that's too much effort for a daily basis." I sometimes dread it I must admit. I also find myself planning my social life around my hair . | |||
