Is it very weird to keep hair very long for a 50-years-old woman ?

my mum has very long hair that just down to her knees.She started to grow her hair when she was in her late 30's.Now she is 50 years old.





She wears her straight mane into a huge bun during the day time .More and more friends of hers have began to think my mum's hairstyle is a totle failure,out of fashion,not suitable for her.so many friends think it is wrong for my mum to be a modern day Rapunzel.


I think my mum has special feeling for her long hair.


but so many people said such long hair was too bad .Is it very weird to keep hair very long for a 50-years-old woman ?

Not cutting one's hair can be a very cultural thing and sometimes even a religious thing. I would never presume to tell someone that they should go against their culture or their religion. That being said, in our American culture, long hair is associated with younger girls, and most older women tend to look foolish with extremely long hair. It seems like they're trying to look younger or maintain their youth. Usually, it's an utter failure. Women often feel like their hair is their ';crowning glory'; and this myth is perpetuated by men who, for whatever reason, seem to adore long hair. I understand that your mom may really love her long hair, but she should really consider cutting it at least to her shoulders. That way, she will still have the feel of longer hair, but it will look much better.Is it very weird to keep hair very long for a 50-years-old woman ?
No really, im 14 and i will sitll have long hair until im 80!!








And if its in a bun, you cant notice it. People will proberly think its a clip-on bun.





No honestly, you should love her hair as if it was your own :)
wow, thats amazing! i dont think her age makes a difference (50 isn't that old) , i don't think her hair looks bad, but, though i can't see her face, i think she would look really beautiful if she could wear her hair down. has she ever considered donating her hair to locks of love? because, from what i see her hair looks healthy and is a very lovely color. should should donate it and then get a great stylist and ask their opinion on what hairstyle would suit her best.
Don't say this about your Mom, you have to spend good time with her because you never know what's going to happen...


That's really mean...And maybe your Moms comfortable with her hair like that, I think it looks awesome in a bun...Nice and sophisticated!
she should cut it. a lot of older women like cutting their hair into spunky hairstyles to make them feel more vivid!
Yes, no1 wants to see that sh*t. Dammmmmmnnnn.


Peace
her friends are just jelous. she hould keep her hair like that.
Your mum should be applauded for having her hair the way she wants it, not the way society dictates. Her friends sound like jealous conformists, allowing themselves to be pressured by silly old-fashioned standards.


Her hair is BEAUTIFUL and she should be proud to not only enjoy life at 50, but to enjoy her hair too. Isn't what makes your mum happy what truly matters anyway?
