I thought about it.
I have a few unsolved issues.

  1. Moderately warm weather leads to sweat.
  2. (unverified) Long hair shouldn't be washed often / it is difficult to wash it and dry it.
  3. Longer hair on the floor, bedding.
  4. Obscures vision.
  5. Flamable.
  6. Requires daily brushing to prevent knots.

You should still be brushing your short hair daily. Good for the scalp, good for your hair style

I’d say so, yes. Sebum’s great at making your hair glossy without any product, oil spread evenly across your scalp protects your skin, and brushies take like 20 seconds with short hair.

  1. Put your hair up, you can also have your hair cut person (whatever they're called) layer your hair. It isn't a big deal, I live in Florida and if I can tolerate it in the middle of summer, you shouldn't have any issues

  2. Depends on your hair type and skin. My partner washes her hair once a week, I was mine every other day. If your point of reference is short hair, then yes, it is harder to wash and dry. But it isn't a big deal, even for my ADHD ass.

  3. True. And in your laundry and ass crack too. Idk how it gets in my ass crack but it does.

  4. Wear your hair up or back when you need it out of your face.

  5. Don't set your hair on fire? That's just a problem in general, not even a long hair thing.

  6. I brush my hair before I put it up for work and before I go to bed. Takes less than 5 minutes out of my day. E: I'll also brush it if I'm wearing it down and I want it to look nice while going out. Even with that it's still a miniscule amount of time

I rarely brush mine aside from maybe once a month or so before washing, which I do once a week. I'm not the most active, though. If I have it down when outside with lots of wind or something it might get tangled, but that's a good sign for a trim for me, too

Did long hair below the shoulders for 5ish years. Absolute fucking nightmare. Granted I was/am clinically depressed and severely 80HD so I put off the hair cutting until I thought I should donate it and just kept it for a while. I would fairly often rip out hairs which probably accelerated some hair loss/thining.

All this to say don't do it unless you have a set time limit or length goal.
