...but there is one question I am very interested in:
What is your boyfriend´s/ husband´s "attitude" towards your hair? Mine hated me showing my hair to other people especially men. He loved it very much and would have prefer so see it down with exklusive  rights. I found this very funny but I think he was serious about ist  ???

Other people seemed much more interested in my hair than my honey was.  He liked it, but he was not nearly as attached to it as I was (no pun intended).  He has had no problem with my hair pix on the web.  His concern is more for common-sense safety - I do get some weird ones once in a while, both in cyber-land and IRL.

My husband has longer-than-shoulder length hair - in fact, the first year and a half we were married, his hair was longer than mine.  But he had a lot of badly split ends, and by the time the stylist was done trimming, mine was longer.  He's continued to maintain the same length while mine grew out, so I win 

He's said it's totally up to me - long, short, doesn't really matter to him.  But I don't think he really means it...the shortest he's ever seen my hair was when it was shoulder length when wet (and thus chin length when dry....ouch!).  I suspect if it was any shorter than that again, we'd both be unhappy.

He's always amused when people see me with my hair down and ask if I've had a perm (this, even from people who've known me for years).  He says they must just be so dazzled by my hair that they don't think about having seen it before

My husband loves my long hair and doesn't mind when I receive a nice compliment.
 
He was concerned about the woman who had her hair cut on the bus.  He decided that I need to keep my hair up in crowded places if he isn't there to protect me.  We had not thought of someone stealing some of it! 

Hello all.    We are a long hair "Family."  My husband has hair just past his shoulder blades when dry and almost to his waist when wet.   We have four boys, three of whom had long hair until 1st grade.  My 7 year old had hair down to his waist when he got it cut last year!!!   :(
I really liked their hair that way, but they got teased a lot at school, and it got worse when the school went to non-gender uniform shirts.  I plan to have our fourth (just turned a year)  follow in his brothers'  footsteps.  I have hip length hair, my husband wouldn't have it any other way (except longer, of course)   He likes everything "ALL NATURAL"  and doesn't mind others commenting or touching my hair, although, I don't like the touching thing....

20 years ago when I had hair at mid-thigh level, Hubby # 1 loved the look.  I usually had it braided or put up during the day, and only wore it down for "going out." Hubby # 1 did not, however, ever willingly participate in any aspect of my hair care, and when my hair got too long for me to braid by myself, he flat out refused my request for help.  I cut my hair to shoulder length the next week, and left him several months later.

Oh, ladies, keep your patience!  I should never have done it (cut my hair, I mean) - here I am now trying to grow it out again, just tell me it's never too late!

Hubby # 2 developed a thing for nurses, I doubt if he ever noticed a THING about MY hair.

Present Hubby cheered out loud several months ago when I declared war on locks-chopping, bleach-mongering stylists and announced that I wanted to grow my hair. I asked him if he would help me with handling it if it ever got too long.  "Of course!" he said, "I love long hair! I remember when your hair was so long and beautiful. I'll help you all you want if you will grow it out."

Well, hon, if that's your Final Answer, then you have my heart forever!

I'm not sure I would trust my husband to braid my hair (he is an operating room nurse) I would end up with a head full of knots....but I do love it when he washes my hair...that is a real treat....

"I would think that as an operating room nurse he would be good with his hands.  Have him practice with old neckties so you don't have to put your hair at risk. "

that sounds like a good idea if nothing else it should be good for a laugh or two.....
