Yes, Chris - great pics!

That is the hair length I expect as the minimum on a forum like this one. Beautiful hair, beautiful woman - and without all the makeup she would be even more beautiful and more natural-looking.

There seems to be a wonderful general trend of female athletes of all disciplines to wear below shoulder-length hair much more often now, at times even waist-length, as could be seen at the recent Olympic Games in Rio.

Let´s not forget that things used to be much different only ten years ago.

And I will definitely never forget the way I used to cringe as a youth when my mother unfailingly commented on almost every female pixie hairstyle on TV as a beautiful sign of a healthy, sportive, modern, and open-minded attitude!

For me it´s hard to take that my sister, a member, but never part of the hippie generation, still more or less thinks the same way, congratulating my wife on chopping off her tailbone-length chestnut hair as an overdue response to her advancing age and a welcome sign of finally discovering and coming into her true self. I love my sister, but: Aaaarrrghhh!
