My hair falls to my butt when it's loose. I'm 41 heading towards 42. I don't have any plans to cut it anytime soon, as I'm having too much fun with it and I don't even dye it fun colors.
My MIL tried suggesting I cut it when I was in my mid 20s (because only young girls have long hair) and I pretty much let her know in no uncertain terms that I would only cut my hair when I felt like it and that it wasn't something that was ever up for discussion.
I'm looking forward to eventually having a thick steel grey braid that hangs to my waist. The women in my family seem to go steel grey and then salt and pepper. How awesome is that?
And when I get to infirm to braid it myself, that's when I'll chop it off, get a perm, and dye it purple.
Besides, I can't have the regulation librarian bun, if I have short hair! ;-p
