Style,
I'm not trying to put you on the spot or use you as an "example", but I would like to ask you something...
If a women chooses to cut off her long hair, what do you have to do with it?If she feels the need for a change, if she's with you or not, it's her right. Just because she looked one way when you started dating doesn't mean she is obligated to stay that way.
I'm always changing up on my significant others. Everyone reserves their right to comment on what I do, but I'd never say to myself "I better not cut it because John would have a fit. He loves my long hair...that's how I looked when we met."
Sadly, alot of women do think like that. It's something that both sexes should think about.
I'm with Ideal08 when she said

...it's still pretty when it's short. As long as it's healthy and clean, what difference does it make?

In this thread alone, you will see quite a few sista's are tired of getting flack for cutting our "long, pretty" hair. Why is it so coveted within our race??
Lately I have been asking myself...what is "pretty" anyway? I think the rays of light spiriling from my head are beautiful. I used to have hair a little past my bra strap, so I've done the long haired thing. I first cut my hair off when I was 12 cuz I got tired of it. My mom is STILL mad at me. It's like people petrified to go against the "ideal". I for one am sick of it.
