Well to those who haven’t noticed I recently in January cut
all my hair off (See my profile pic). This
is the shortest my hair has definitely been in my life and I never thought I
would have the guts to do it. I had been
talking about cutting it for years and finally did it. My husband was supportive and gave me the ok
even though I was scared he would hate it.
Most of my friends and family miss my long hair and are having a hard
time adjusting to the new look. I cried
and thought I was ugly at first and even felt hurt from comments that people
made but I realized that I can’t worry about what others think. Since cutting it has truly made me reflect
whether we place beauty on the wrong things.
I feel like people don’t like my haircut because they felt my long hair
was so beautiful but what I learned about myself is I am still the same person
and it’s just hair and it can grow back if I want it to. I felt as if my hair was defining who I was
and I don’t want something physical to define me, my character or beauty.
