How long have you been a self-proclaimed baldie? 

1 year

Did anyone inspire you to cut your hair? (include @ name if possible)

Yes! @thelawofhair

What made you decide to cut your hair?

I just wanted a fresh start and something new! I've never cut my hair so it was definitely time for a change and new look.

What reservations/fears did you have about cutting your hair?

My only fear was that my head would look even bigger! But that was quickly shut down once the clippers were on.

How did you prepare yourself for your hair cut?

I kept telling myself "you just have to do it! No second thoughts at all!". I repeated those words the entire ride to the hair salon.

What was your initial reaction to seeing yourself with short hair?

I was so very shocked that my head was actually very small lol. I couldn't believe that short hair actually fit my face shape! I couldn't stop smiling!

Did cutting your hair symbolize anything to you?

It symbolized strength and courage because my hair has always been long and to do the big chop was something I thought I would never do.

Do you plan on ever growing your hair back out? 

I do plan on growing my hair back out and I most definitely will document the process.

Did cutting your hair hurt or help your self confidence?

Yes! Afterwards I felt like I could do literally ANYTHING! And it has taught me that there is no reason to be afraid of change.

Do you regret your decision at all? 

NOT AT ALL!
