Is short hair sexy or not? (Women's hair)

    According to the therapist and former comic Pamela Stephenson "women who cut their hair are deliberately sabotaging their sexuality. The implication is that short hair is unsexy, whereas long hair leads to masses of exciting bedroom action".
    I think that the longer the better. What do you think?

    I think this was done in depth before and my answer's still the same - it's very rarely, if ever, sexy.

    Short hair = looks like a boy. It's like glasses - I've seen some women (very few) who could pull the look off, but never have I seen a woman who looks better with short hair/glasses than without.

    Im a woman so I dont know if my opinion is relevant.....but in my opinion no, its actually horrible.

    Even the best looking woman with short hair, you just think to yourself what a waste.

    Then again I dont even like short hair on men.

    I love women with short hair (from at least 300 metres away at all times thank you very much District Court Judge)

    Like most questions in After Hours the answer to this question is not Yes or No. The answer is: It depends ya big eejit. Depends on the woman, the hair, the style, etc.

    It's like Pighead asking "Do you like all things orange" Again the true answer here is "It depends" Orange poo would probably be a no no in most peopels eyes.

    Short hair on a woman is terrible.

    I absolutely hate the way gorgeous women cut their hair after they get married and then all of a sudden they look mingin'. Fair enough they're off the market, but there's no need to mutilate your looks.

    It can work but not very often.You have to be a kinda indie chick as well.

    Yeah like wouldn't that sting and stuff and you could get blinded..

    Yes, it totally depends on the woman. Mary Harney will never look sexy, it doesn't matter if she styles her hair till the cows come home.

    Here is a picture of Mary Harney

    That has got to be the most pointless Harney reference ever.


    And no, girls with short hair aren't attractive, they look like toilet scrubbers.

    I’m dreading the day when I get older and have to have short hair cause I’ll look silly with long hair at 60.

    It suits some girls but I’ve always had long hair so would look weird with it short.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,856 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    Very unsexy, with some exceptions.

    As a rule, short hair = you're a boy.

    Not necessarily Kiera. Beruthial still looks sexy.

    I reserve the right to railroad a tenuous Harney reference into everything I come across. I also look forward to more pictures of hot short-haired celebrities

    Shorter than this


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 124 ✭✭pallepille


    meh, id prefer them to be bald to be honest, its a lot more hygenic, or if not bald at least a brazilian its so much neater.

    Unless you're Selma Blair (when she had short hair) pi$$ off with your short hair.

    Shaved heads are woeful,

    Short hair is grand though, gives them a more aggressive look. And who says having a woman in charge isnt bad? some times...

    Entirely depends on the woman in question. You need a very feminine/pretty face to pull it off though so for the poll I'm going to say no.

    Natalie Portman and Dolores O'Riordan are two examples of women who could pull it off flawlessly.

    Brazilian all the way. Does that count as a Yes then? Or does it show i didn't understand the question?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,358 ✭✭✭Dennis the Stone


    I will say one thing though; even in cases where a female looks sexy with short hair, she almost always looks sexier again with long hair

    Hey, what's wrong with glasses? :(

    :P

    Short hair can look good on women. Halle Berry pulls it off well.

    I think short hair can look nice ,depends on the person...

    On the poll where is the "In general short hair isn't my preference, but it can look sexy on the right person - but I don't regard it as deliberate sabotage, just a choice of hairstyle" option? :) I think if that was there it would summarise my feelings, that normally long hair is sexier, but short can be good in the right circumstances! Although in my experience it takes a very feminine girl to pull off short hair properly.. a very elfin looking girl can get away with it no problems!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,822 ✭✭✭ShooterSF


    No my biggest turn off. As a smart man once said "Eww that's the one place you want them to have hair"

    short hair can be nice but usually isnt. Rihanna comes to mind, she was beautiful with long hair.
