Well, I live in a city, so I don’t see many flowers growing wild.
I have pictures of a friend I took after I fixed her hair into chignon and added roses. She looks good in those pix.
Another friend had very small white flowers in her hair (which was braided) for her wedding. The effect was lovely. I was amazed that whoever had done it had put little tiny capsules of water on the stems of each of the flowers so they wouldn’t wilt. Lasted all day they did.
You say that like it’s a bad thing. 
spark, detraction = good.
Huge ass that needs its own zipcode = bad. Bad ass bad.
Showing that bad ass bad ass in a g-string body suit and smiling = a cruel and unusual form of punishment.
I hate big fat asses like that. They always make me wonder how the hell they fit on a toilet. Plus they remind me of a doco I saw once where the person had to use a rag on a stick to wipe.
Even a flower ain’t gonna pretty that up…
How did a thread about flowers in hair become a thread about dumping all over people with big asses? Oy.
Also my answer.
Not to some girls, though (myself included). What if there’s a BUG in the flower?!
I’m no tomboy, but one thing I don’t understand about (most of) the rest of females is their affinity with flowers. Bouquets don’t impress me. They’re expensive–and then they die.
Regarding the OP’s post…I think girls wear flowers in their hair because it’s pretty and feminine (at least we’re socialized to think so).
Oh, I hate bugs. Especially if it was an earwig lurking in the flower and it crawled into your ear and first up on the menu was ear drum surprise. That would be awful.
It’s one of those looks that doesn’t always work, but when it does, it works very well.
Remember the Polynesian custom. If a girl wears a flower behind her right ear, then she is single. If she wears it behind her left ear, then she is taken.
Q: Is it ever appropriate, when a guy approaches a beautiful woman with flowers, to take just one out (before or after kissing her, YMMV) and put that one flower in her hair?
(because I’m a guy & this guy doesn’t know these things…)
What if she’s wearing one behind each?!
Then she’s a swinger!
I think it’s pretty hard to pull off a flower in your hair. It works at a wedding. Maybe a festival or a picnic or a beach. But for most people walking down the street, it ends up looking a bit silly. Especially those huge fake ones that you find at accessory shops. Or at least, I would feel silly wearing one of those.
Well, I just got a whole lot less whimsical. I knew there was a reason for it before. I just didn’t know what it was.
Are these gentle people coming to San Francisco? Because summertime will be a love-in there.
For someone whose username is H**effalump and Roo **, I would think it would take a LOT to get rid of your whimsy!
And that’s why I wouldn’t date you. 
I’ve come to realize extreme rationality can be a real turn-off. (of course I’m very rational myself, I just don’t want my date to be)
I’ve been known to wear barrettes with very small silk flowers (like rosebud size, no bigger than the tip of my thumb) for special occasions like when I sing at weddings. I have a variety of colors that I can wire onto certain barrettes. It works for me, but then, I have a huge fat ass to distract people from.
Because any thread about anything that women do is open ground for crass criticism of women’s bodies, which are, of course, solely intended for decorative purposes and must be aesthetically pleasing at all times.
She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
And I knew without askin she was into the blues
She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls,
I knew right away she was not like other girls, other girls.
