Overly curly to bald

THE MANE IS GONE! As most of you know, I recently chopped off all of my luscious curly locks. I keep getting asked to why as if its a bad thing? People seem to be really confused to why I would do such thing as if it wasn't my hair in the first place. I'm also really tired of hearing "oh my god, but it was so pretty" "do you miss it yet" "you are going to hate it when it grows out"

Curly hair is H E L L. If none of you have ever had curly hair, it is seriously a struggle to take care of. I mean it's not that hard to take care of when you get the hang of it, but, everyday is different with curly hair. I had gotten a hair cut back in December and it was completely destroyed! My hair was entirely uneven and super choppy. This overall just made my hair entirely unmanageable. I just wasn't happy with my hair anymore. I tried everything to get my long hair back but it just seemed that my hair wasn't growing. I tried taking vitamins, drinking only water, massage my scalp. Seriously, everything. I was tired of not being able to do anything with my hair. The only thing that I could do with my hair was wear it down when it was curly. I couldn't wear it up without looking like a complete boof and I was trying to stay away from straightening it so it would grow. With the condition and state that my hair was in, I just didn't feel pretty anymore. I hated waking up and knowing I'd have to find some way to try and make my hair look somewhat decent.

I'm not the sweet innocent little girl anymore. I feel as though over this last year I have truly found myself and come to find out the long curly hair just doesn't fit me anymore. I have had the same hair style since middle school. I have always had semi-long curly hair. ALWAYS. That's just not me anymore. I'm not quite and innocent anymore. I have always wanted to cut my hair but I was way to scared of what everyone else would think. Where I am at now in my life, I could really gives two F*cks if any of like or dislike my hair at the moment, I feel more like myself with my hair cut short. I feel so much happier. I feel like my hair held so much baggage and just stuff in there and now that it's gone I feel free. I feel like a new person honestly. As corny as that sounds, I truly do. I feel like I have so much freedom to do what I want with my hair now because if I don't like it I can just chop it all off again.

Overall, I cut my hair for me. There really isn't any other important or deep meaning behind it. It was for me, It was to make me happy and to make me feel better about myself. I absolutely love my hair this short. I feel so confident and empowered. I think that being able to cut off my mane says a lot to me about how I have grown as a person and how I really don't care about anyone else s opinions anymore .I feel more beautiful than ever, not just on the outside but on the inside as well. If you don't like my hair, I'm sorry. Its gone and honestly probably wont be back for awhile. All that matters is that I'm happy and right now in this moment,


SO, do I miss my hair? Heck no, I feel like was a different phase in my life, and like I stated before I feel so much happier. I mean sometimes I wish I could just throw my hair up in a bun or have more versatility with my hair. All in all I'm beyond happy with my decision.

Also, don't tell me you liked my hair better the other way because, there's not much that I can do to get it back that way. lol. Even if you don't mean to to rude that's kind of rude to say to someone, don't you think? One thing with my hair, is no matter if someone hates it or loves it, it catches the eyes of many and I have received way more compliments since I cut my hair.So obviously I made the right choice.
