I've had long hair all my life. Apparently, I was born with it like three inches long. It's also bright coppery red. I end up getting it cut every year or two, so it varies between mid-back and waist (which is as long as it'll go)

It's pretty fine, so it doesn't get -too- heavy. It also doesn't get past not-quite-sittable length. I definitely notice it being a lot lighter when it gets cut, though!

I had long hair for a while in high school, then cut it somewhat shorter in college. In 1993 I had it cut off and had a short hair cut for many years. Last year I finally started losing weight, and decided to let my hair grow again. I'm in my 50's, and my hair is going gray. I refuse to color my hair, it will gray naturally. Ironically, I've been getting comments about how young I look now, with long hair. Including from my husband, who loves it. I've been letting it grow since February 2007, and it's now down to my shoulder blades (it used to be really really short). It's fun having long hair again, and I don't care what anyone else says.

Well my hair used to be in the middle of my back, but all I ever did with it was put it up, so I cut it. My hair is very very thick and very very straight. And although I try, every single year to let it grow, by the first heatwave of summer, when my head feels like an oven and about to explode, I give up my dreams of long, elegant tresses and go to the hairdresser begging him "cut it all off! Please, now!!!!" Last time he even told me "No, it looks too good", which if you know my hairdresser and how enthusiastic he is to shear everyone who comes within reach, would astound you, but I was adamant. I feel like another person, less romantic, but much cooler (literally and metaphorically). Plus lazy: I can put my head under the tap whenever it gets too hot and don't have to style it one iota.
I do, however, think that all of us should choose for ourselves.
And as the gods have a sense of humour, half my gray hairs are curly, so I can look at any number of excessively irritating things in my existence and say: You make my hair curl! And it's true!

Well I honestly never noticed them Susan, so maybe they are magnified by familiarity?

Dear, dear, southdowner: how kind you are. There is so much more of me to notice, you were probably focused on everything or anything else Also I'd been in the sun a lot over the summer so some of the rest of my hair is blonder than normal so it looks like highlights (cheap, nature-given highlights) rather than common or garden grey. Fear not, I only care 5% of the time. And I am lucky, I'm going nicely and evenly grey like my Mum. Heck, the men in my family are far worse off, they have early male pattern baldness (evil, evil grin)

Well, I do try (sometimes - mwahaha!) But I never saw a single grey hair, and you looked groomed and cool, so don't try all that guff about worse things to notice - what I did notice was a very nice person

When I was in college I used to have my friend cut my hair for me, because it was free. I was keeping it about chin length at that point. One spring, I had her cut it more than normal because I was going to be gone at camp all summer, but she cut a little too far and went up into my cowlick, so I had a little spike sticking up like a Dr. Seuss character. We had no choice but to cut the rest of it off, so my hair was like an inch long.
That's the shortest it's ever been, and I can't say I liked it, but it was so easy to take care of that I sometimes miss it.
