Where do you consider hair to be really long?
Oct 25^th, 2006 at 7:04pm

From the time my hair passed my shoulders people would comment on how "long" my hair was getting. But I didn't really feel like it was long until it got to my waist. I consider anything past shoulders to be long on a man, but on most women it needs to be past bra strap length for me to consider it really long. What do you think?

Reply #2 - Oct 31^st, 2006 at 5:51am I picked waist too- no matter on whom I see waist length hair, I find it long. On some people though, much shorter hair may also seem long. It really depends, I reckon. In general, most people I see IRL have shorter than BS hair, so everything below that is unusually long.

Seems like waist length is the general consensus, it's what I picked too.

I know that when I began approaching BSL is when everyone began commenting on how long my hair was however, I don't feel that BSL is very long at all. I'm aiming for waist length myself, though I think that I'm about a full year and a half away from it Sad

Reply #6 - Aug 18^th, 2007 at 12:50am I don't know, maybe it's just me but I consider hip length to be getting really long... waist is long, no doubt, but I've seen so many people with waist length hair that it's not quite as remarkable. Still quite frequently gorgeous, though.

I voted for BSL because I have seen some thick BSL hair which looked as good as some waist length hair Shocked

I would think if you took this poll out to the general public the majority would probably say shoulder length.
From what I hear, the fashion world seems to think shoulder length is long but if you talked to ten different people you would probably get ten different answers on what they think long hair is Roll Eyes

i chose beyond classic because i go to college and there are a few gilrs there that have waist or tailbone. most have BSL or mid-back. then there are 2 i have seen so far that have beyond classsic and that is what i call really long compared to the others. im not saying those lengths arnt long, just not considered very long in my opinion...
