Hi Fi,

No I don't think there is an age when you have to cut your hair short. My four best friends all have long hair. Their age range is mid 30's to mid 50's. I am about to turn 40 and have had both long and short hair. I currently have a classic bob and will probably stick with it. I think its more about finding a style thats easy to manage and suits you.

short hair looks better on older people because your hair gets thinner, but since nearly all older people have short hair i think that long hair makes a change and can look really nice if the hair is still in good shape and looked after.
