Long hair

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?

I know some women experience that but then again some older women retain volume and thickness x

Not sure on cut off time but longer hair is aging on a lot of mature people

I had a short bob about 4 years ago and hated it.

Sometimes it doesn’t have to do with age, but rather your face shape. Mine is too round for short hair. I think I suit long hair much better. I have noticed it is getting thinner and a bit drier but them I take steos to look after it.

I have tried many different hairstyles over the years, such as short bob, and even had a fringe put in at one point - never again, too much maintenance work!

My hair is long currently, past shoulder length and I think it still suits me. May change it again when I hit 50

You're right. 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.

That is also true.

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"

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...

My mum is mid 60's and she has very long hair. It's grey and quite wild, but she wouldn't consider getting it cut because she likes to hide behind it, like a security blanket almost. She's the only one in her group of friends who hasn't cut it short. She hates my short hair.

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...

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'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

Same with me. The dry and brittle I mean, from mid length. As I am pure white without colour My hair was breaking off so had to cut it shoulder length. It's now thick and luxurious again.

Mine is long and has been for years, had all sorts of styles over the years but ultimately prefer it longer.

More versatile as can wear it in a number of styles as well as loose

Mostly a sort of loose chignon clipped up for daily living, sometimes plaits or ponytail, tend to go loose for play

I don’t think age should be a factor really, more what suits in terms of face shape and lifestyle

I think you will find most ‘mature’ women have shorter/short hair is down to menopause and hot sweats! Hair round the back of your neck just results in a ruined hairstyle and the back beautiful no wet through!

I bloody hope not! I have naturally curly (read frizzy and untameable) hair, and it needs the weight from the length to stop it from sticking straight up. I've never had it above my shoulders since being a baby, and I hated it even that short...for many of my teenage years it was down to my bum. I'd feel lost without my mane.

I wondered this! X

I had to cut mine a lot cos it wasn’t healthy, and felt a change, now sort of happy with it but sometimes I really miss a longer length. So I’m gonna grow back 2-3inch so it kinda reaches my nipples. And should be fine!

I absolutely love when some girls have the hair down to their tailbone but yeah, It’d take me FOREVER to maintain it .. and so much olaplex so no

(Also I find it to be more common in younger girls?)

I had to cut mine up short (shoulder length) after the kids. I lost a lot of hair and it went so thin it looked ridiculous. I used to have it waist length. I miss it but the thickness just hasnt come back and i cant be dealing with extensions lol

"Way i see it if its not long enough to tie your own hair up in your own hair or at least have a girly hair style you wont be for me

How do you tie your hair up with your own hair "

Just keep a strand free and wrap it round the base of a pony tail or bun. You still need a grip though.

I’ve always had fine hair so it’s always looked better short

Yeah, I think that's probably part of it - hair thins as you get older.

My hair is fine but dense. I'll re-evaluate as I get older and it thins out.

That's interesting and good to know - I have no family experience (everyone in the generation up has short hair), but it's something I hear/read about when looking into my own hair care.

The information tends to concentrate on hair thinning as you get older I suppose. I know a lot of women for who that hasn't happened

I have thick hair... I had it cut from boob length into an asymmetric bob, shaved on one side in my 40s..it looked amazing

I'm growing it long again now (its almost cleavage length -the intention is that one side will be shaved /undercut and the rest will stay long.. Probably do it in the winter

I have thick curly frizzy hair, if I don't keep it long I'd get mistaken for Bob Ross.

"I love a woman with long hair, no matter the age.

It's just when you look around there doesn't seem to be many ladies say over 50+ with long hair x"

My hair is half way down my back and love it

I think if it's in good condition then the length is irrelevant. Very long, thinning hair in crap condition is ageing though...imo.

What do I know though. I've had a boy's haircut since I was 20.

As per my comment further up, I love my long hair but it is now time to get a trim so getting 2 inches off tomorrow (it will still be long though but more manageable) and getting my highlights done again. I know I'll feel better for it too x

I'm fortunate to have healthy thick hair that grows like a !

It's way below my shoulders just now but ill probably get it chopped to a shorter bob sometime soon.
