I think as women get older, they tend to have pressure from society to portray a more mature appearance - hence they cut their hair (or wear it up). This is true whether they are married or involved or not. The same goes for men - in college it was not uncommon for me to see a guy with hair down to his shoulders (as recently as a few years ago). But when these men hit the real world, the pressure to cut their hair increased, and they usually gave in to it. Karen Summers-Horton
