My mom has always said that short women should wear their hair above the shoulders. Longer styles supposedly overwhelm the person and make her look shorter. I'm 5'2 and prefer my hair long. I recently cut it to shoulder-length because I'm 25, look young for my age and felt that a shorter style would be more professional-looking and easier to deal with. However, I find that it actually takes longer to style, and I just don't think it suits me. I'm wanting to grow it mid-back length again, but do you think it will make me look shorter and less professional? It's in good condition and I'll have some layers cut in to give it more style. How do you feel about the long hair stereotypes (esp. the short people/long hair one)? Is there some truth to them?
Does long hair really make people look shorter? technically yes, but I just tell my clients to do what they are comfortable with. Anyway if you're short, you're short and hair is not going to change that or the appearance of that much. Wear your hair like you want, you are the one who has to deal w/ it on a daily basis. Good luck.
Does long hair really make people look shorter? sometime it does
Does long hair really make people look shorter? Well,you should honestly style your hair how you think is best,but I think you would look absolutly fine with long hair! I have never heard that it would make you look shorter. I dont think there is much (barely any,infact) truth in long hair stereotypes,everyone is different,and so different things suit different people!
Good luck on your hair! (And though it sounds hokey,you'll never look fantastic in any hairstyle,without confidence. Believe you look great,and you will!)

Does long hair really make people look shorter? I'd say the most flattering on you (just based on what you've told us so far) would probably be around shoulder length, with lots of layers. But if you like your hair long, grow it out! In the end it probably won't make you look shorter or taller either way, so just go with what you like best. Good luck!

As long as your hair is looking good, and is a natural hair colour (not blue green or pink) then what's the problem?
Does long hair really make people look shorter? Okay...yes, long hair normally makes short people look shorter. Hpwever, that doesn't mean that you have to be excessive. For a professional look, have layers put into your shoulder length hair by razoring. It loosens up the look and is a snap to style. Shampoo, some spray gel, air dry or a quick upside down blow dry and you are out the door. It looks professional yet sexy and loose, too. Just FYI: a wide face looks wider if your hair hits chin length. a narrow face looks wider w/a chin length cut. There are so many tricks...if only I had the time!
Good luck and have some FUN w/your 'do!
