@badgalriri
What made you decide to cut your hair?
I was simply tired of dealing with hair. It made me feel uninspired, similar, and unoriginal.
What reservations/fears did you have about cutting your hair?
For a split second I was concerned about looking too masculine, but that's about it.
How did you prepare yourself for your hair cut?
I reminded myself that deep down this was who I am and said, "F it, it'll grow back."
What was your initial reaction to seeing yourself with short hair?
I was overwhelmed with joy, honestly. I felt like a badass again.
Did cutting your hair symbolize anything to you?
Cutting my hair symbolized freedom and power, for me. I felt so liberated and inspired again.
Do you plan on ever growing your hair back out?
Absolutely, and then I'll probably cut it all off again.
Did cutting your hair hurt or help your self confidence?
Cutting my hair enhanced my self confidence in a sense that it forced me to stop doubting myself and go with my gut.
Do you regret your decision at all?
Absolutely NOT.
