I was at the mall yesterday and noticed that i saw no older women of any race with long hair. They all had SL and shorter hair, and they were all looked like rollersets. I think i can see how longer hair on a older women can age you, but im still going to have mine
I hate when something is stated as a rule, and thats the only reason people make decisions.
But it seems like it could make sence for some people
If you were like plus sized with very full cheeks, and a very round/oval shaped face, then long flat hair seems like it wouldnt do anything for you, like it would make you look bigger because it would be flat on your head and accentate/overdo your cheecks and all that. Long hair worn down with alot of body with a center part, like some like Beyonce type hair might drape your face, and also make you look bigger. So it would seem like hair that doesnt touch your body (shoulder and shorter), with a nice cut style to frame your face (instead of hang around it ) would look better.
Then on the other side if you were very skinny, with a square or heartshaped very thin face, then short styles might overpower your frame. A very thick bob cut or halle berry type style might make your head look too much bigger than your body----So it seems like long styles would look better.
