Wear your hair how you like. I finally just cut mine real short and even before the pandemic I was cutting my own hair. While my hair is neither as curly or thick as when I wasn't 68 there is still have enough wave and body that cutting it myself does get me asked "who cuts your hair I want to get mine cut short".
I've had my hair long enough to sit on and everywhere in between.

Never do what a troll tells you to do.

They are nasty Scandinavian dwarf giants, who live under bridges and push people into the rivers. They only want you to cut your hair, so that people have nothing to grab hold of and pull you out.

Don't you buy that ever would date you at the drop of a hat

Nope! Long hair is great. I grew mine long during the pandemic, and have no plans to cut it. My friends like it. Is your friend jealous?

Tell them it's your hair. You will do as you please.

Oh, hope you did not cut it too short. Your long hair was so nice. Can you link the video?

i just tell the hairdresser to give me a little boy sunday school haircut. I'm not very picky.

I've been debating what to do with my hair, it is very thin, fine, and curly, and grows slowly. I haven't had a cut in a year due to covid. Well, I did some trimming. So now it is to my jawline. I pull it back into a pony tail while I'm working most of the time. I may have to make a decision on it one day, for right now I feel like I'm in limbo and hate my hair.
