Well that sounds a little like a back handed compliment but thank you!? I have worn my hair long in the past and I've been wearing it short for the last few years... It is lower maintenance and I get more compliments with short hair than long. Sure, you guys love to run your fingers through long silky hair... But if you ever meet me, you'll see why it fits me so well. It's short, sassy and playful like myself. You'll also see it's long enough to pull and there are plenty of others areas (like my smooth, silky skin) you can focus your attention on. Besides why would I wanna hide this pretty face and all my chiseled features behind a long mane?? xoxo - Skylar
