Am I the only one who craves hair change when..

I totally relate, I think it's completely natural to want to turn to something you can control when other things feel a bit out of hand!

I really like those haircuts with the undercuts, I think they look so cool! I'm currently going through a weird late 30's crisis though where I want long hair again for the first time in years to make me feel young! I also have a really square jaw and wide cheekbones so I am self conscious about the shape of my face too much for that style!

I think if you really want to do it go ahead, it's only hair and it grows back before you know it!

Oh but I think a square jaw looks AMAZING with short hair 😀

Yes a part of me wants to take the plunge, but I've been growing my hair for so long just to cut it again. Sometimes it feels like cutting it short means going backwards, but I'm trying to tell my self that it could also mean going forwards, you know?

I think it can on some girls, but frankly I think I'm just too fat at the moment to pull off anything funky! My face looks like the full moon so I'm enjoying the extra hair to hide behind! (for now at least!)

Yeah I totally understand your hesitation too, it took me so, so long to grow my hair between chin length and shoulder length that I feel like I never want to cut mine again, but I know I will! I think just give yourself some time to think about it, then if you still want it when you feel a bit less stressed or whatever go for it then.

I'm currently growing out a pixie I've had for a couple years and it is so hard to not want to just cut it off especially when it hits the awkward stages. These pictures are giving me the urge to cut it off!! But I'm trying to remind myself that winter is coming and I'm going to want my hair longer for the holidays, but maybe come spring I will have a pixie cut in my future  *1*

Lauralei, I totally get it, it IS nice to have hair to 'hide' behind 🙂

Emmer, which stage are you on right now? I've grown out a pixie sooo many times lol. This one took 3 years and now that it's finally long again: BOOM. Pixie. (with an undercut this time)

Well, I sorta made an appointment next monday (on my birthday yaay!) to cut my hair. It feels right now as if I won't let this go until I've done it. I can't wait to have short hair again, but at the same time I will miss doing braids and stuff.

Is there such a thing as "hair separation anxiety" ?? lol

Right now I'm at the stage where the front of my hair is almost bob length, like maybe another inch or 2, but the back is still short, I had to cut it a few weeks ago because the bottom was getting too long and bordering on mullet, so I had my mom trim up the bottom 3 inches and shave the very bottom to what my normal pixie had so I'm waiting on the top half to grow a bit longer then trimming it all to one length and letting it frow from there.

The only thing that is saving me from cutting it is playing around with some colors (still only natural colors because of my job) and wearing it in a messy style which also is hiding some of my un even layers as they grow. I was very excited to have a little pony tail of hair, even though I look like pebbles from the flinestones, lol. I'm hoping by the end of the year to have it almost all one length! Till then I'm just playing with braids and keeping it looking on the messy side, yet still professional if that makes sense, lol.

Snuflan, congrats on the making the appointment, I think you'll look fantastic! Can't wait to see photos of how it turns out! 🙂

Emmer, mine was sort of heavily layered bob length with short/shaved at the back just over a year ago and now it's about arm pit length (prob more if I straightened it, and that's with regular trims! The longer it gets the more up-do options you get and the easier it gets I found!

Yes I am getting excited to be able to do some updos. I have a wedding this time next year so I am growing it out until then so who knows how much hair growth I will have. My hair does grow pretty quickly so I'm hoping for below my shoulders , with the occasional trim.

I was thinking about this the other day, as I noticed the urge to want to color my hair when I was highly upset. Prior to that I practically cut all my hair off for the New Year. I started with mid back length curly locks.(which i had been trying to grow down to my butt..so much for that), a curly mohawk, and shortly after i went completely bald. I remember at the time I was dealing with alot of stress factors in my life. Cutting my hair off entirely was satisfying in an odd way.
