Other than in nature, where male birds show off the most outrageous plumage, the human world is just the opposite. Women usually give more attention to their hair. They love creative hairstyles and colors, along with accessories and special effects, while men take a more neutral and pragmatic approach. How do women feel about men's hairstyles, and what types of hairstyles do women like on men?

The answer is, of course, as multifaceted as the people and genders involved, and there is no clear outline or complete, perfect list of "to do" and "not to do," but we can look at some tendencies that stand out.

Change is Good

A friend's husband has had the same haircut since she met him, 20 years ago. Recently, while looking through old family photos, she discovered that he had the same cut at the age of 7. He is one of many men who show incredible loyalty to their haircut. This kind of dedication is admirable, but a little change every now and then can bring more spice to life, and who knows what it may ignite.

Men, please don't be afraid of transformation. You don't have to keep the same hairstyle your dad's barber gave you long ago for your entire life. Your 20-year-old suit won't look good on you anymore, either.

The new hairstyles for men are especially fantastic because they are very flexible, and one cut can be styled in many ways, from bad boy to clean-cut banker.

Long or Short

Oh, Tarzan... oh, Casanova, and oh, Johnny Depp. Long locks on handsome gentlemen have always enchanted the female inhabitants of the world. Long hair speaks of romance, adventure, a free-spirited attitude, and untamed virility. And yes, what's not to love? Long hair is extremely seductive, and women love to play with it.

Long hair for men has become more and more socially acceptable in the past decades and has moved from a rebellious statement into the world of high fashion for men. Along with the length, of course, comes the ponytail. Some call it a rat-tail, and it appears that it is either a "love-it" or "hate-it" reaction that women have towards it.

Male ponytails can be classy, as seen on Karl Lagerfeld, or mysterious and romantic, as on Brad Pitt in the movie "Interview with the Vampire." Just don't let your ponytail look sloppy and unkempt. If you have more skin on your head than hair and use the few remaining strands to shape a pencil-thin something on your neck, you might as well just shave it off and be a proud bald man, perhaps with one of the stylish goatees!

As enticing as long locks may be, the majority of women still prefer a well-groomed man with a classic short haircut. These are now even more exciting than ever, due to modern hair design, refined texturing, and high versatility that allow the modern man to sport a more conservative look at his job and then, with just a few steps, transform his hairdo from classy and neat to exciting and bold.

A word of caution: Don't do mullets. Don't even think about a mullet. It is not an option! If you can't decide between long or short, then don't take the middle path as a way out. It would only be the path to a very sad love life.
