We have previously examined how hair color affects character, but our research did not end there. It turns out that a person’s personality is determined by many factors related to his appearance: the shape of his lips, the length of his fingers, the shape of his eyes and even his hairstyle. For example, in Russia, long hair for girls symbolized feminine energy, for boys it symbolized strength and power. Of course, few people believe this anymore, but psychologists say that the function of hair is more important than it seems at first glance.
short hair
Girls with short hair look strong, freedom-loving, smart, emotional, honest and independent. They are ready to fight for their ideas and go to the end. We know it sounds trite, but there is an explanation. The fact is that since ancient times long hair was considered a sign of femininity and elegance. A 1920s issue of Cosmopolitan magazine ran a story with the headline: “Why Does He Love Your Long Hair?” But the trend soon changed. During the Jazz Age, women cut their chests short to challenge established beauty norms.
long hair
Even in ancient Egypt, long hair for women meant high status and wealth; In ancient Greek and Roman cultures, it symbolized power. In modern society, girls with long hair are considered feminine. They are dreamy, elegant and romantic at the same time. The Scandinavian Journal of Psychology asked men why they are more attracted to girls with long hair. Participants noted that women with this haircut look healthy and sexy.
curls
In ancient civilizations such as Greece and Rome, curly hair was seen as a symbol of beauty and vitality. Girls with curls are impulsive, energetic and cheerful. In many films, curly-haired heroines are portrayed as indecisive and short-tempered (Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City, Vivian in Pretty Woman, and Miranda in Braveheart). According to research by the American magazine Moisture Love, many employers do not take curly-haired employees seriously because they have an unofficial image (sad, very sad).
curls
Girls with wavy hair are soft, determined and know what they want. They avoid conflict and can find common ground with anyone. Curls are a sign of a diplomatic and balanced character. A British news agency said in one of its issues that girls with curls look young and attractive. This is probably why women always try to make their hair wavy (using curlers, curlers and curlers).
straight hair
Girls with straight hair behave freely, often express their opinions directly and do not hide their feelings. They are also persistent and not afraid of difficult situations and choices. A survey was conducted at Leiden University that showed that many people perceive girls with straight hair as strict. For them, straight hair speaks of professionalism and a serious attitude towards work.
