Gah to think of all the times I managed to fail to persuade people because I have short hair :)
To me it is a mix of feeling that spending money on cutting my hair is wasteful, spending time to go to a hairdresser is wasteful and so on. It's just a maintenance chore. And I don't feel it has ever caused me to perform subpar in my job or to have people take my arguments less serious. But I can see that form some people this might be the case.
In a way this is a luxury that men can afford themselves, if a woman would go to work with a very short hair it would immediately count as some statement rather than being efficient.
