    Very accurate. I’ve finally reached that butt length “chop it all off” part of the circle again. I save a picture of “short hair” me just as a reminder not to go all the way. The crow can heck off. I like bangs.

    Hey bangs are nice :( just not DIY bangs that stem from “ohmygod-my-hair-is-too-heavy-gtfo-my-face” energy, which is hard to resist.

    Every time I get a haircut I like going shorter though, just a matter of convincing the stylist to let me get a mullet/undercut since they think it’ll “look like a bad haircut” and seem convinced it’ll ruin their reputation lol. Just let me indulge my trashy instincts please and thank you! 😂

      For 2 weeks and then they are too long but it isn’t time to get the rest of your hair trimmed. So for the next 4-10 weeks they are just a mess. I love short hair but then I need it cut every 4 to 6 weeks so I usually end up growing it out so it only needs to be cut every 6 months. Sometimes I really understand Dolly and her wigs and wish I could wear one without sweating like crazy. Don’t even get me started on the wavy/curly that becomes a frizz bomb as soon as there is a hint of rain but cannot use any product on it without looking like Snape’s sister.

    This is true. No exageration. No emphasise. No approximation trying to be funny. Truth.

    I used to be adamant to keep my long hair. I hated caring for it. Grandother kept suggesting I try short hair.

    Grandma was right. When I finally tried short hair… Never again do I want the head-heavy pain-generating mess-prone burden of long hair. I cut that shit when it’s long enough to reach my chin.

      I once accidentally shaved my head. That is how I learned I won’t look good if I ever go bald.

          I shave my head year-round and I grow a long beard in the winter. I just can’t figure out how to handle the transition well. Like, here? Maybe here? Fade it? I dunno. A goatee solves the problem but nothing says bitter old dude like a baldheaded goatee.
