Sorry to probably disappoint you with an initial reply that is a dissent, but "pulled back" hair is, for me, a surefire damper on my libido. Of course, I prefer it long, down and unfettered in any way. In fact, I just spent four hours masturbating to a "greatest hits" DVD of Leslie Bovee, where her hair was styled both ways, and I definitely enjoyed the flowing mode better.... But what's the use of arguing over such preferences? It takes all kinds to make a world and, fortunately, all kinds are available in it. So enjoy and send me the long, flowing models and I'll try to steer those with it pulled back your way!
