Of course, this depends on the actual hair length to begin with.
I recently got about four inches trimmed off (due to constant nagging
from my girlfriend and other females about my terrible split ends) and
no one batted an eye. It's the first haircut I've had in over a year.
Of course, since 4" is a fairly small portion of the overall length, it's
not too noticable. If I had 4" cut off and my total hair length was 4",
you can bet I'd get plenty of double-takes.
Also it's a combo of all the factors - facial hair, hairstyle, cleanliness
of the skin, kempt-ness (is that a word?) of the facial and/or cranial hair,
clothing, cariage, gait, and so forth. In addition it's the difference
is these features since you last saw someone that really matters - John Muir
shaving his head and face bald will be a lot less recognizable than your
average clean-shaven joe with the GQ haircut doing the same.
