Let's be real! If an anime girl cuts her hair she loses her attractiveness

So anime girl A gets rejected by main character A because he loves anime girl B (even though she's a bitch), and anime girl A, who was loved by the whole waifuists and thirsty anime watchers, cuts her hair. She becomes so bland it's infuriating, sure, the personality is still there but hair is a girl's treasure.
Anyways, is it true or I'm acting like a sore loser because my girl didn't get her boy?

Unpopular opinion, I find shorter hair more attractive.

For instance, I find the current Mikasa in the Attack on Titan manga, where she has shorter hair, more attractive then the Mikasa in previous arcs (e.g. with longer hair).

Senjougahara didn’t cut her hair because of a rejection but I think she’s hot with both long and short hair(she’s the only example I can think of right now).

WOW, I couldnt even agree more 110% agree. I prefer characters with long hair and when its short, it does lose some attractiveness

Example Adagaki, Aki - Masamune-kun no Revenge

Personally, it depends.

I think some girls are more attractive with shorter hair, but I find it unattractive if it's too short. As long as it's not a pixie cut or the hair at least goes past the ears, I will probably find it attractive.

This was the example I was going to mention. Hanekawa from Monogatari series did still look good with shorter hair, but no where near as seductive as she did with the longer hair, though she always tried to downplay her good looks and not draw attention to herself (with long hair as Black Cat Hanekawa she was the epitome of sexy and cute imo).

Togame from Katangatari was another one that looked better with that long hair.

I like regular Hanekawa with long hair but I prefer Black Hanekawa with short hair but either way she is fine af.

OT: I would say if I had to pick a favorite it would be long hair but I like both a lot. Hell my waifu Ryuko doesn't have hair that long.

YES I agree. Even if its growing out the hair when the original was short the attractiveness decreases in my opinion, but in rare cases it might be better but I haven't seen that happen.

Hmm....

Prior to Haircut:


Hair for the majority of the series:


Hair by the end of the series:


Kind of true I guess. But it all depends on how they style it. And it also depends on how long you're used to their style. You become accustomed to a character with short hair if they have short hair from the start. When their hair has suddenly grown longer though, your opinion on their attractiveness might change and you'll have to get used to the new hair.

what i love about animes was always a long haired anime girl in a scene with wind.
i always loved how the hair was moving in the wind.















aaaah beautiful^^


short hair has not the same effect,
but some characters are better looking with short hair, Misaka Mikoto for example. one of her clones had after "the birth" long hair, and i doesn't looked good at all.

On my favourite list only Miyamori, Ohana and Kotoko have semi-short hair. The rest are all long-haired girls. I argue they would be a lot prettier with longer hair.

Considering that the facial features and body would be the same, that wouldn't really make her unattractive in my opinion.
I mean I can imagine hair being important, but as long as she still has some hair and isn't bald, I can't imagine the character would lose that much due to a change in hair-style. The hairstyle isn't even up there on what makes a character pretty imo. Sure, it helps, but not to that extent.

Furthermore, short and long hair are umbrella terms for tons of different cuts, so saying that one is better than another is a really difficult choice for me.
To be honest, though, it just really depends on what suits the character. For example, Mizore from R+V, actually looks better with shorter hair imo, as she has a more nonchalant vibe to her that's actually more suited for short hair since it takes less work to maintain and would be better for characters who I can imagine not taking that much time on their appearance. Furthermore, being someone with a more tomboyish vibe to her compared to the other girls, short hair just matches her fashion better. Additionally, being someone who creates ice, spiky short hair makes sense given her powers as it looks stiff and kind of like icicles to me.

I found the character more attractive when she cut her hair in this case.

This isn't to say, there are no characters who cut their hair and look worse for it. The main example to come to mind is Yona(Yona of Dawn), as her character is very girly, in how she acts and her sense of fashion, so the super short hair just doesn't seem to match her.

it actually makes me sad how few anime girls with short hair there are in most shows. i like to see a variety of designs and i feel like the "long colorful flowing wavy hair" style is a bit overdone for a main female character. i'd like to see more hair lengths than just "long", "super long", and "a bit above the shoulder"

wtf are you talking about? if your girlfriend cut her hair one day would you break up with her? girls with short hair are cute. if they were cute before with long hair there's a 99.99999 percent chance they'll be cute with it short. its not like looks rely only on hair. idk man

Girl's looks rely considerably on hairstyles, some styles work well with a girl's face while others don't
