So am I the last guy on this board with long hair or what? I've had it since 1971 and so if I'm the last one around, I'll just wait until the style changes back again and then be ahead of the times!
I still wear mine long, in a ponytail. I've worn it long since about 1997. I don't plan to get it cut any time soon.
I keep it long for a few reasons...FIrst, I've always liked mine a bit long. Second, I still can grow it long. If I was going bald, I probably would have got it cut, but since that doesn't appear to be happening (at least with any speed), I figure I'll keep it going as long as I still have a head of hair to grow. Third, with my often hectic schedule, haircuts are just one more time drain I'd have to worry about to keep it short. And with my finances as they usually are these days, haircuts are also one more money drain I'd have to deal with as well. Oh, one more reason - I can't stand the itching of clipped hairs falling down inside the back of my shirt and down my neck, it's irritating!
I'm not totally against the concept of getting mine cut at some point down the road, but it will be when I decide the time is right to do so. Now isn't the time...yet.
