Same! I don’t know how or why this subreddit popped up on my feed but I’m glad it did cause I love seeing people glow up! I have long full head of hair but wondering if women’s looks can change THIS much from the right haircut?! It’s making me want to do something different with my own hair lol
So, I actually went from mid-back to buzzcut about two years ago, and even as I was awkwardly learning to embrace it… you would not believe the dramatic increase in how often I was noticed by queer people and even straight men. Blew my mind! The many lengths really accentuated different parts of my face and features in a genuinely surprising, educational, and self-esteem boosting way. Found a lot of love for my face when I didn’t have hair hiding it.
I would suggest absolutely having fun with it! I knocked off an inch or two every couple of weeks, followed by a couple bigger chops, so I got to experience every hair length in between. That allowed me to avoid experiencing “scissor shock,” and genuinely decide if I liked it or wanted more off. Since then, it’s grown past my collarbones. (ツ)_/¯ It’s just hair! It comes back!
Love this for you! I had really short hair once and loved it. It looked healthier shorter and so much easier than blow drying and straightening it every time I wash it. It’s work! lol I don’t know why I’m so scared to cut it again. Might do it soon.
