I think that would depend on the woman in her 40's in question.  I assume it would still be predicated on what works best for them individually.

Yup 'cause on here, out there, in celebrity land I see women 40 and up
with long hair that look just beautiful with it all the while not trying to
pretend to be younger than they are.

You are right - I was really thinking more of a woman I know who is in her 50's and isn't pulling it off.  There are certainly some women who rock long hair their entire lives.

Short hair doesn't equal lack of femininity that some people seem to state.
And of course like a long hairstyle, shoose a short hairstyle that complements your face.

And I have to add, the short dos that I'm seeing above totally rock!!!

Yeah, short hair = less feminine, that's utter bullshit. These people probably haven't seen really nice short hair.

I have received a gazillion times more compliments, from men and women, in the past month since I cut all my hair off then I had in the past 2.5 years that I had it chin to shoulder length.



It is actually even shorter now than in the pic above.  About 1/4" in the back, tapered up to about 1-1.5" on top and in front, etc.  Pixie cut basically.

Yay for pixie cuts.

Femininity is a state of mind and being and how one presents oneself,
short or long hair.  'Cause I've seen some very unfeminine women
with very long hair and very feminine women with very short to no hair.

Sometimes what one needs to do when older is to layer some around the face
as to soften it with a good cut that will blend into the longer hair nicely.

I work continuously - short hair and all.  I don't think it could get any better by growing my hair.

I think that if you kept the front basically as is and let the back grow,
if you wanted to, it would still look good.

Not always.  They can look good if one gets quality ones and they're styled right.
Though most of the time they're not.

I disagree. I had some for a month and a half, and they looked great.
