I don't think it matters that much. I have had my hair short for many years, and long for many years too. Short hair suits me well but I think longer hair looks better. Anything mid-length (above the shoulders) looks weird on me for some reason. I think it's my curls, they go nuts when it's mid-length. Long and the weight of the hair keeps them tamed, short and they haven't got much of a chance to be too wild anyway. I have no idea how I'm going to cope when I am a little older and longer hair looks silly. I don't feel like going very short again.
Whatever suits the girl, is fine by me.
But since I prefer longer hair on myself, I voted for that.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
