How long do you want it?

Recently a friend told me it was funny how men on romance covers tend to have long flowing locks, but if you saw someone with hair like that in real life you'd think he was cheesy. So that got me to thinking...how many people agree with that? Do you want your fantasy men to look one way and your real men to look another?
Photobucket What about this guy? Real? Fantasy? Or both?
Do you like 'em clean cut?Photobucket
PhotobucketHow 'bout a little peach fuzz?
Or do you like a smooth hairless dome under your palms? Seriously what's hot, and does that depend on whether we're talking fantasy or real life???

I think a guy looks sexy with his hair just reaching the collar of his shirt. Longer doesn't do a thing for him, but that's only my opinion.

I love that length too, Mary Ann. All one length that hits right at the chin is very sexy to me in real life and in fantasy. My dh has very short hair though, and when I first started dating him he had almost no hair thanks to the Marine Corps. :)

Honey I saw a guy the other day with realy long black hair. It was soooo black and soooo glossy it looked blue in the sunlight. Damn. I don't care if it's cheesy or not. I wanted to grab him by his hair and drag him into the nearby parking lot! I love log hair. Yummy!

LOL! WTG, Tess! I'm thinking there's a lot more to it than just hair. I'm sure there are guys who can pull off any length, and some guys who really need to stay with whatever works for them. I'm really curious about the responses to this question though.

There's a LOT more to a man that HAIR but oh my...that top pic has me drooling. Something wild and primitive about him. Whether real or fantasy this guy is HOT!!!

Thanks for the pics!!! WOW.

Hugs.

I'm in the other camp - the first guy looked too cheesy to me, and the way he was contorting himself... no.
I think it also has to do with the guys I've seen/met with long hair. Either they're greasy and gross, or they're hot and everyone thinks they're all that. Including themselves.
I like guys with hair, but I don't want one who spends more time on his than I do, or will steal my product!

Wendi said...

LOL! Limecello, I didn't think about having to share hair products. That could definitely be a problem. :)

Thanks, Regina. What about a long-haired cowboy? Would that work for you? ;D

In reality, my husband shaves his head and it is VERY sexy. I tend to like short or shaved hair in reality and fantasy. I used to LOVE the long hair, but after I joined the military...it was short all the way. :)

I love it all.... Whatever works on the man,looks best on him, I like it. But long hair must be clean & well cared for.
What I don't like is middle of the road, short business cut. Bland.
I notice men in my age bracket (closer to 50) all follow what I call the "Bouncer" look: bald head, with goatee. Usually it looks good, but if I see an older guy with a well groomed ponytail, or marine cut, now I look a little longer.
