Hmm . . . I think Paksenarrion had short hair, but she might not be what you'd consider feminine.

Edit: Oh, I've got one! Alanna from Song of the Lioness! She initially represses her more feminine traits, but she develops into a more complex character over time, and I think I recall her keeping her hair short.

[drakontion]

Paksenarrion had long hair which she kept braided to wear inside her helmet, until it got removed for her.

Other than that, off the top of my head I can't remember any either.

Tamora Pierce does tend to have short hair on her warrior heroines, precisely because long hair is a hazard. She also goes out of the way to mention that Beka Cooper wears a spiked strap in her braid so no one grabs it.

[(Anonymous)]

Yup, Kel's hair is short too. I'd definitely recommend Tamora Pierce to the OP, anytime. (Have you been reading along with Mark?)

[othellia]

Can't remember if it was in the actual story or just another case of Book Covers Lie, but I do recall that Alanna has long hair on the covers of Woman Who Rides Like a Man and Lioness Rampant (aka the two that take place after her identity's been revealed).

[(Anonymous)]

She canonically lets it grow after her identity is revealed, but explicitly has it chopped short again in Lioness Rampant.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, if for some reason you've never read Tamora Pierce - run, don't walk. Not only will most of her heroines hit this particular button of yours, but she's just that awesome.
