Our clients love long hair, so we’re going to go with long hair! Why do men love long hair? We’ve studied the issue to find answers to this; it seems men’s favourite kind of hair is long and wavy (according to a survey), followed by lengthy and straight. The bowl cut only gets 5 per cent of the vote, while the Pixie crop doesn’t fare much better.
And it seems that men like shiny hair, with 72 per cent of men saying this is sexy. Of course, men also want touchable hair, so those long, wavy looks need to have been achieved without a mountain of styling products.
Men often view long hair as very feminine, which is why it is so highly regarded. At a basic level, long, thick hair can indicate that a woman is healthy, and healthy-looking people are generally more attractive than those who are unhealthy-looking.
Certain hair types and faces look better with longer hair, too. Curly hair can look frizzy and stick out at odd angles when it’s short, whereas when it’s long, the added weight makes it wavier rather than curlier, and it sits better. Longer faces often look better with long hair.
There are reasons men prefer long hair. It’s safe to say our companions will keep their crowning glories for the near future!
