Here's the thing, can a bloke be to old for long hair. Up until the age of 30 i had long blonde hair and then i decided to cut it but i really miss my long hair.Ten years later i am thinking of growing it again, my wife thinks i should keep it short and my daughter thinks i'm to old. So, over to you guy's, what do you think, short or long, and can you be to old for long hair ?

Well Danny Vaughn will be 45 in July and he still has long hair! and very phwoarsome it is too........ Ditto JSS - he's 40 (and phwoarsome) and has long-ish hair........(as opposed to short LOL) so erm.....dunno! Loads of blokes over 40 with long hair and looking bloody good on it, ask any of the ladies on here! ;D If you feel it's right for you, then do it!

Honestly? Really honestly? I think that most men look better with shorter hair as they get older. There are probably exceptions but I can't think of one just now! Hair changes texture (not to mention colour)with age, and what looked good in your 20s or 30s isn't going to look the same in your 40s. I'd trust your wife's judgement if I were you -she has your best interests at heart!

Go for it m8. I really miss my long hair too Saying that, I always had it tied back due to my job, so it made sense to get it cut I guess

Lindsay..if ya can grow it, grow it, you can always cut it later, and anyway how long is long I`ve always liked blokes with long hair and at our wedding (nearly 20 years ago) Nick`s hair was longer than mine...its shorter now but I have to drag him kicking and screaming to the hairdresser...cause he hates having it cut ;D and BTW he only has it cut to satisfy work As for Alison`s point, OK he has touches of grey in his brown hair but its just so yummy to run your fingers through...... I really feel sorry for blokes with male pattern baldness!

It's a tough one... my hair was v.long until 1992 when I had it all cut off. I'd like it longer than it is now but it always get to the length when it starts to p me off and get in my eyes... so I cut it then regret it.
If it gets long you really have to look after it as you get older and if you're starting to thin forget it... it only looks stupid.

Really depends on the individual .... I would love to have my hair long again ... but as a victim of starting to bald plus receding hair line I made the decision that rather than look silly/stupid with hair swept back in a ponytail ( rock fans equivilent of a combover ) that I would take the brave decision and got my hair shaved short ( grade 2/1 ) when I turned 30.
While I miss the hair, given my baldness cutting it short was the sensible thing to do.
If you have a full head of hair & you really want to to do it then go for it, otherwise I would leave it short.
Cheers
Tez
