The Long & Short Of iT

Here I pose the age old question...is a woman more beautiful with long flowing tresses (please don't forget the diva-fan as Tyra Banks would say, 2 playfully blow through her hair, lol!) or with a sassy short style?

Many men envision their fantasy woman as one with long luxurious hair. I've even known a few who have opted not 2 date someone because they had short hair. I know...crazy isn't it!

Women on the other hand tend 2 be accepting of either hair choice. In today's day & age there are sooo many styling options we can choose from.

Some women however, seem 2 be a stickler for long hair. This is especially true with the recent onset of excellent hair weave options. If a woman (or man) doesn't want 2 grow their hair long or is incapable of doing so, she can have a stylist add some that will match her own hair type and no one would know the difference, lolol!

We have all been a witness of women who have changed their look seemingly overnight by chopping off their locks or by growing (or adding 2) their hair. Some were a serious beauty boost! :0D 
Others, a definite bad move.  :0(

As I procede with this discusion, let me start by showcasing my most favorite of all...Halle Berry. Here is a photo diary of her journey with various styles as she grew her hair from short 2 long:



**Here is Halle Berry wearing her signature pixie cut. This is by far my most favorite look on Halle! It showcases her stunningly gorgeous face so eloquently**



**This shot captures the beginning stages of Halle's journey to growing out her short cut. I love this style too. It's very sassy yet sophisticated**



**At one point, Halle even rocked an asymetrical bob. This too is a great style for her**



**Here Halle sports a full bob, not 1 of my favs, but her beauty helps pull it off, lol. To me it looks a little too blah...very "girl next door" if u get my drift**



**Not sure if it's Halle's real hair or not, but it's a GOOD look!**

**Last but not least, Halle also wore her long hair straight before returning to her classic short do**


I wanted to show some other famous faces of celebrities who have toyed with different looks. Its damn near impossible to showcase them all, but here are a few...

**Eva Longoria; I say "stay long my dear"**


Rihanna swapped her girly sweetheart style for her hot rock chick look with shaved sides. (Picture: Getty Images)
**Rhianna; either one is working for her**


Lady Gaga transforms so much it's hard to keep up. Thanks to a lot of wigs, she can have hair for every day of the week. Check out a normal looking Gaga with a crop on the right. (Picture: Getty Images)
**When it comes 2 Lady Gaga, anything goes**


Whats a girl to do on a boring flight? Try on wigs of course. Usually surrounded by long blonde hair, Jessica's Simpson's funky flight style changes her look completely. (Picture: Getty Images)
**I never even knew Jessica Simpson ever wore her hair short**


Jennifer Lopez has updated her look with a more mature, shorter style in recent times. (Picture: Getty Images)
**I'm thinking long hair for J-Lo**


She has changed her image and hair colour so many times. Madonna has also had short styles, and more recently long. Maybe she'll have the chop and a purple rinse when she reaches granny age. (Picture: Getty Images)
**Madonna ALWAYS keeps it versitile**


Cameron Diaz was always known for her short blonde crop, but she's let her hair grow in recent years...and she looks more stunning than ever. (Picture: Getty Images)
**Cameron Diaz should keep it long**


Kim Kardashian is experimenting with a new shorter hairstyle. Luckily for Kim, it's just a wig. (WireImage, KimKardashian.com)
**Kim Kardashian could go short with such a pretty face, but I don't see her going any further with it than the wig she's wearing in this pic**

As a Fashion Fiend, I love all styles! Long, short, medium, weaved and braided. All I ask is that the hair be well-maintained & styled...no ragedy heads Ladies!!! To me, all are beautiful and can depict a woman's true personality.
