Does long hair destroy the soundstage?

I have noticed that people with thick long hair covering the ears (often women) do not hear some of the finer aspects of the sound like soundstage, and therefore dont get as much enjoyment from high end systems.
I have checked this out myself once when we were going to a fancy dress party and I was dressed as a rock star with long wig. I have also asked a couple of women to put their hair behind their ears and tell me if it sounds different or better, but that was not as definitive.
Could this be a factor explaining why most people in here are men?

Perhaps it's time to have audiophile ratings for hairstyles. Or better yet, audiophile hair care products.
Full Spectrum Shampoo - $248.00 / 12 oz..
High Frequency Taming Conditioner - $248.00 / 12oz..
Each product could also be sent back to the manufacturer, and upgraded to the "SE" formula for only $124.00 plus shipping.

Viridian, I used to have that same problem with my chest hair. When I asked my stylist she suggested either a wax job, or a tuned beard. I went with the beard option, and my soundstage is better than ever.
