PEOPLE KEEP TELLING ME TO CUT MY HAIR—BUT THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHY

“You’d look younger with a shorter cut.”

“Long hair is for young women.”“Isn’t it a hassle to maintain at your age?”

I hear it all the time. I’m in my 60s, and my hair is long—down past my waist. It’s a soft blonde-white now, like winter sunlight. And no, I don’t cut it. Not because I’m stubborn. Not because I’m trying to cling to youth.
