First Impressions On Guys With Long Hair
This is more a question for the ladies, but men are perfectly welcome to answer it too.
I'm a guy (obviously) and I've had long hair since I was about 17 or so (I'm 23 now). From a personal standpoint I like having long hair but I'm beginning to wonder if people see something different than what I really am when they look at me. This is especially true of the women I've dated. I seem to attract the type of women who are the complete opposite of me. Myself I'm fairly deep into the conservative side of things, I'm religious, etc... But my exes, who were attracted to guys with long hair, were almost my complete opposites on many views which eventually resulted in break-ups. I've been called a "hippie" and a few other things when I'm actually a very conservative soul.
So I guess my questions are... Do some women (possibly the ones that I would like to be with) take guys with long hair seriously? What is your first impression about the personality of a long haired guy? Do we all seem like flippant elf-boys on first glance?
I'm looking for honest opinions, not what you "THINK you'd think" but rather what you really do think if that makes any sense. And if you find this topic funny, feel free to laugh, as I am laughing right now when writing it. Also, sorry if this is in the wrong category, but I couldn't think of a better one, even the relationship category.

I am also attracted to guys with long hair. In fact I think the only kind of guys I am attracted to are the ones who have long hair, lol. Guys with long hair have always been the hotspot for me. Most of the guys I've dated or knew had long hair were very intelligent and interesting. And also every single longhair I've been with we were always complete opposites, but we got along quite well and were able to tolerate each other's belief standards and such. To me having long or short hair shouldn't really matter. Girls and guys will take certain people seriously depending on their personality and outlook on life and so on. So, you shouldn't worry too much about it =) As long as you like the way you are, awesome, don't worry about what others think. You may attract opposites, but if you know how to handle a mature relationship with lots of compromise if need be and are tolerant of each other, go for it. Nothin' is stopping you =) Happiness is always available to those who are willing to make it happen.

for me i like guys with short hair... but if you really like your hair long make sure you wash it and its not stringy and scraggly. THAT looks bad TRUST ME. maybe your looking for girls in the wrong places and its not your hair? currently though my cousin is growing his hair long. but really how long is your hair? like to your shoulders? past them? if you still are looking for advice on this (because i don't know how long this has been posted)
i can ask my friend (a boy with long hair) what he thinks. just ask me a question it dosent HAVE to be a question on my thing you know at the bottom that says ask bla bla bla a question.

Okay! Well ...
You see I always liked girls with short hair and guys with long hair (I'm a female)
Some people would just take it as my opinion and others would say "It's because of your sexuallity" (I'm Bisexual)
So I'm not sure exactly why!
I'm not sure what kind of girls you like, but yeah why not? I mean as long as your good looking it doesn't matter how long your hair is, what matters what looks good on you but if long hair is what comfortable for you and the reason is because you look better with long hair then I think women will like it.
From my opinion I would think HOT and intersting (honestly) but when guys do this scary pony tail or when they put extra gel I would think creepy, i mean who wouldnt?
No, not at all.
Good Luck =]=]

This is just MY opinion...
Generally, I like guys with shorter hair. To me it just looks... more masculine, more professional, and usually... cleaner.
I actually had this conversation with a guy friend recently. He's a teacher's aid and was wondering if perhaps he should cut his hair to appease both the faculty and the parents. While that shouldn't matter... I did tell him the same thing... And that, when he had cut his hair before, I had really liked it.
You could always try cutting it and if you don't like it, just grow it back out. ;)

To be honest with you, I would prefer a guy with long hair. However, when it all comes down to it, I don't care how long or short a guys hair is.
Some girls do care though. Some will see long hair hot, and others will be grossed out. It also doesn't look too professional if you're trying to get with someone who has a career or if you are trying to get one.
All girls are different though, so I'm not really sure. It all depends on who you talk to. Everyone's preference is different.

Well its really sad but a lot of people stereotype really easily, and it depends on how you dress on my opinion of you but it i see a guy with long hair right jeans band t's and everything im like "oh hes a hard rocker, lazy smoker kind of a guy." If that makes any sense. But i would not expect a guy with long hair to be religious and conservative, its just not how we look at long haired people. We meet one person with long hair and expect you to all be the same. It really sad but its what everyone does. It is harder to take longer haired people seriously becuase they mostly like i described in the beginning, not someone that is looking for a serious relationship or someone that is conservative. Hope i helped =] Good luck!

Personally, I too find myself thinking that long haired guys more open-minded but also relaxed.
I tend to get more attracted to long haired guys as well, I'm not sure why.
If a guy with long hair is dressed nicely, and doesn't look like a bum, then I'm very curious as to what his personality is like and what his interests are.

i'm 18, and my family has sort of directed me towards guys with short hair after i started getting old enough to be interested in guys.
if i ever point out a guy with long hair, my mom will instantly snap "he needs a hair cut!" and will kind of turn up her nose. that's not to say that she or i would reject a perfectly caring, honest, sweet guy just because he had long hair, because personality TOTALLY plays the bigger role, but it's the first impression thing. i've been raised to assume that guys with shorter hair and more clean cut and presentable. i would kind of view a guy with long hair to be more hippie-ish or rockish, but i wouldn't judge a guy solely on that. as far as taking a guy seriously, i'll take anyone seriously as long as they give me a good reason too, i dont care what their hair looks like. good luck!

When I see a guy with long hair, I automatically assume that he's open-minded. People that have their hair long have obviously thought about it. I like thinkers. I also would guess they're a hippie (or indie, or just into older music like classic rock) but that's probably only because I'm like really attracted to hippies for some reason. Usually, opposites do attract, but I don't really understand what you're talking about with the hair thing. Are you saying you attract wild girls that aren't relgious and are more liberal? That could make sense but that isn't always the case. Maybe those are just the women that you're attracted to, and that you're going for. If you don't like the girls that you're dating, change that, not your hairstyle. Know what I'm sayin'? =]

I don't judge a guy because his hair is long.
However, I am 50 and from an era when most guys
had long hair.
Short hair has been the norm for a while now. Can't say that I think all guys with short hair are nerdy brainiacs either!
If you don't seem to be attracting the type of girl you want, try cutting your hair. Better yet, I have a plan for you. I can't take credit for the idea, its something my son-in-law does.
If your hair is long enough, I think it has to be 10 inches long, Yes, I just checked for you. Have it cut at a salon for locks of love.

This will let you have short hair for a while, you grow it out again to donate so its long for a while. Somewhere along the way you will hopefully find the girl of your dreams! Plus you help someone who needs a wig. Win win situation!
Good luck! :)
