To cut or not to cut?

To date, I think it has been four months since I last had a haircut? Or more than that. Frankly, I cannot really remember when the last time I had a haircut was actually. Well, I guess things like haircuts have been pushed to the back of my mind by my hectic Uni life and I'm not too surprised, given how much has been happening these first few months of school. Haircuts do seem quite trivial, eh? This is all the more so as our overall appearance gets less regulation now that it is University. The result - people sporting hairs of all kinds of styles and colours(though most still have black hair), many types of dressing and attire and accessories being worn. As such, it is no surprise that my long hair has not gotten much attention in school.
My hair is now really long and thick by the way, the longest it has ever been. I guess this one week break from classes has given me some time to notice my hair which explains my sudden realisation that I need a haircut. I've still not gone for a haircut though. This long hair is giving me a new look and I kind of like it too. So I've decided to let my hair continue growing for now until people around me start finding it inappropriate haha! I might use this opportunity to surprise people with my new look, most likely some friends and relatives who I have not met in the past couple of months.
I have a dilemma though. I miss my short hair and the neat look that comes with it. Now, I just look unkempt. Still, I guess I will keep my long hair for a little while more and get it cut during my annual haircut just before CNY. Well, that was my decision until I had dinner with my grandmother recently.
During a recent dinner with my grandmother, she commented on how long my hair was. I then casually told her that I would be getting a haircut just before CNY. To my surprise, said I looked good with my hair long and told me not to get a haircut. Well, I guess that settles it then!
