Hello everyone,
I would like to know the difference in meaning between this two words: I don't have long hair or I haven't got long hair. :-? Thank you.

No difference at all for me.

I agree with Barb, there is no difference in meaning.

OK. but only if I say : I haven't got long hair. To say: I haven't long hair is wrong? However, I can say: I don't have (without got) long hair.

"I haven't long hair" is not wrong as such, but would be very rarely used.

It's maybe acceptable in British English ;-)
