Are Women With Long Hair Sexier?

Ladies, your hair says something about your life. If someone has never met you before and knows nothing about your past, your hair is your best testament. It's an honest record of the food you've eaten, the drugs you've taken, the seasons you've weathered, the stresses and sickness you've endured, and the grooming you've given it. Because scalp hair grows on average a half inch every two months, a shimmering mane that swishes below your shoulders advertises at least four years of good health and diet. You couldn't fake that in ancestral times. Our brains subconsciously process the sight of long, vibrant hair as a cue of youth and vitality.

The height and quality of your hair may also reveal whether you've had a child. Hormonal changes in the aftermath of pregnancy may permanently affect a mother's hair, making it shed copiously and turn sparser, coarser, and more brittle — a reason why many new moms get haircuts. In a study of two hundred surburban American women, older ladies and married women with children had much shorter hair of significantly  poorer quality, whereas single women without children had longer, more luxuriant tresses. Intrestingly, women of all ages who reported health complications that prevented them from having children also had shorter, thinner, weaker hair. Similar results were found in an Hungarian study that compared the effects of various hairstyles (short, medium-length, long, discheveled, knot, bun, etc.) and health and attractiveness.

Hair is also important to MALE attractiveness. While a hairless head is considered sexy on a few exceptional men, women generally are not in favor of bald men. In a study at Barry University in Florida, judges of both genders associated balding guys as those with greater social maturity, wisdom, nuturance, and age — NOT good looks. In fact, bald and balding men had NEGATIVE sex appeal. Likewise, a Korean study with nearly two hundred judges of both genders found that bald and/or balding men were perceived as older, less attractive, and less potent than guys with full head of hair.

Lastly, there may another benefit to having long hair: it broadcasts scent. Hair contains small amounts of fat, and fat absorbs oders easily, which is why your hair retains the scent of shampoo, cigarette smoke — and yourself. Pheremones may emanate from glands that lie at the base of hair frollicles, and have an unconscious effect on others. Flirtatious women release their scent in the air by caressing, stroking, and twirling their locks, or whipping them around.

yeah, i prefer women with long hair as well, they re more attractive as henry said

they have a touch of, i dont know, i cant explain it, but i prefer them with long hair

This is why a lot of women (particularly the hotter ones) are always thinking and talking about their hairs to their girlfriends. This issue is constantly taked about in the most popular of women's magazines and hair salons go the extra mile to make sure their hairs are in stellar appearance. That's why it costs so damn much to style a lady's hair. Think about it. When their hair stays long, they get a LOT of attention from men (and women, too). With short hair, …. not so much.

And it's not only about money. It's about time too.

Women can easily stay a whole afternoon at a hair salon getting a hairdo.

Hair is the second feature I look when I meet a girl.

First her eyes, then her hair.

As National says hair tells you a lot about the woman and her habbits.

I take a lot of care of my own hair, so a girl I like must do too.

looool, well, i always cut my hair so he can be short so, i dont have the problem of taking care of him and brush it, but i wash it of course, and yeah, when i look to a girl the hair is the second thing i look in her and first the eyes, just as nico

yeah, youre right, but you know what they say, money doesnt make you happy
