Do guys dislike long hair?

I was talking to some guy and he rejected me, saying I wasn’t his type. And specifically that he doesn’t do guys with dreads because they’re “dirty”. Which is wild because I have twists. I get my hair styled once a month, sometimes twice. Sometimes I blow it out.

I have zero intention of changing my style for anyone. But I did start showing only pics of me with my hair pulled back or blown out. lo and behold…I definitely noticed a change in the guys who approached me.

So is this a thing? Is it specifically an aversion to what people think are dreads? Or is it long hair in general?
