And speaking of ‘90s bombshells, Sharon Stone always looked great with short hair.

The right short cut on a beautiful woman is more chic than long hair can ever be. That said, I am enjoying Amber Heard’s updos and chignons she is wearing for Depp vs. Heard, but only certain women can pull that look off without looking like a prison warden.

Pretty women, like Halle Berry, can really pull off short hairstyles. That’s the reason you’ll never see plain-faced Jennifer Aniston with a short haircut.

Tons of women look great in short hair. It’s an outdated sexist notion that women need to have long hair.

Sharon Stone, Halle Berry, Winona Ryder, Charlize Theron, Judy Dench, Annie Lennox all look better with short hair than long.

Lesbians and the woke crowd ruined short hair for women. I was born in 79 but I remember growing up in the 80s and early 90s and seeing so many beautiful women with short hair. Today, it's associated with ugly, masculine women. It's so sad. I thought Rachel Ward was gorgeous and sexy with short hair in the 1984 movie Against All Odds.

L95 is correct. If you have short hair and aren't a wispy, sylph type of woman it will be assumed you're gay. Which is a shame because some short or shorter hair is cute. I'm not talking fades, bowl cuts, buzz cuts or high and tights. I'm taking about Juliette Binoche, Isabella Rossellini chic type of shorter hair. The French allow this. Why can't the US?

by Anonymousreply 100May 20, 2022 7:06 PM

R100 "The French allow this. Why can't the US?" Because of woke retards. There used to be plenty of beautiful women in the US with short hair but these days, they are all ugly. The US invented wokism so I guess in Europe they haven't been hit by its worship of hideousness as much as in the US. Here are the type of American women today who have short hair. YUCK!

I understand that many women feel they couldn't pull off the Jean Seberg type cut. But I have noticed how many American women are afraid even of chin length bobs. Every woman from 5 to 45 seems to favor the long polygamist cult member hair. It's no big deal at the end of the day it's just interesting that you don't see this trend to the same extent in European women.

I am female - small with high cheek bones and a long neck. In my teens, 20s and 40s I had long hair but wore a lot of ponytails or wore my hair up - does anyone still wear a bun with a pencil or chopstick? … in my 40s I got a weird growth under my chin underneath the skin. My dermatologist removed it but he was an old man and the cosmetic thing didn’t occur to him. The way he did it the musculature under my chin and throat sagged and I got a “waddle.” I can’t wear my hair up or back or short anymore because of my saggy under chin. Soooobbbb .

The problem with having short hair for the average woman especially maintaining a pixie cut is that it requires a lot of visits to the hairdresser. The haircut for a woman vs men's haircut are outrageous. Lately, the price for a decent haircut by a good hairdresser starts at $40-50.

Anyway, celebs can afford it. Carry on.
