Well, Leona, the poll in your forum seems to be a bit taken over by the haircut fans from the Bob worship page or the like ...
Many women would be glad to have the hair you have at the ends of your mane at the roots of their hair. I think it is a good idea that you put "quality" over "quantity", but when there is no deficit in "quality" at all and your hair streams down like a golden waterfall - why not keep the tips tickling your skin 68 inches below the top of your head ...? - as long as it it o.k. for you and you generally like it that way.
Best wishes to you, dear Leona.
