    i have 2ft long brown hair and i love it, BUTi have split ends, its always in tangles, i hate brushing it and im thinking of cutting it short, ive had it short before and i loved it but i grew it becoz i became a hippie.
    what should i do!? :confused: can hippies have short hair 2? is it natural?
    i think i look good with long and short hair.
    there are lots of things i like about both long and short hair.
    please please help!

    I think you really can have short hair. importartant is to be hippie in your heart.
    btw : I have the same problem :) I use creping pliers( hope you understand what I mean. I dont know right word in english for it, sorry) And it looks really great!!

    Cut it!!! You don't have to have long hair to be a Hippie.. .Hippie is a way of life not a fashion statement.... If you don't want to brush it and take care of it then cut it (or get dreadlocks :)) It will be much easier to take care of....

    I agree being a hippie is in your heart and life not fashion statement. I think you should cut it, it would make your hair healthier too.

    A hippie's style is to do what you want and be comfortable doing it

    I had spikey hair for many years (about 6 years) I loved it... but eventually decided I wwanted a new look and grew it out... now its fairly long and Im still growing it out because I love it... but im sure someday (hopefully not in the near future) I will get sick of it and hack it off... If you want short hair go for it, Im sure its cute on you... but if you want to keep your hair long I would say get the split ends choped off and try using a hot oil treatment once a week and conditioner every tiem you wash your hair... and that should help keep it lless tangled. and smooth.

    My hair is about shoulder length now... I had to cut it cause i tryed to bleach it and it fell out and broke apart... At first I hatted it... But now its kinda growning on me (excuse the pun) I have always wanted to shave my head but I know i dont have the right face for it My sister and i look like twins pretty much and she cut hers short.. it looked bad)... I love when girls have short short hair... Remeber If you dont like it it will always grow back

    Rent the Woodstock video.
    Note all the gals with short hair.
    I wouldn't cut it. In July, I made the bad mistake of cutting off almost hip-length hair into a beatle-cut. I'm still kicking myself voer that.

    dont restrict your lifestyle to what you think would be socially accepted even in a 'hippie society'


    split ends can be helped by getting your hair trimmed everr so often, even if you do it yourself

    it's really only a choice you can make whether or not you cut your hair, i cut mine and it used to be quite long, i didn't like it at first but now that it's grown out a bit i really enjoy it (still waiting for it to get long, though :p)


    :)

    speaking from my own personal experiences... i'd say if you ever decide to go from very long hair to short, think it over for at least a week, i'd say a couple weeks or longer (it takes much longer than that to grow it back out if you change your mind). if after that long, you still want short hair, go for it. i've cut mine on a whim more than once and regretted it. but, it is just hair, and it grows back.


    as far as whether hippies can have short hair, don't try to make yourself into something, just be yourself. if being a hippie is what you identify most with, that's awesome, but that doesn't mean you have to have long hair. we all have to learn this ourselves though. one day you will meet some of the coolest people that just don't look like you would picture them to look.
