I think I’m the queen of impulsive haircuts. I could be doing absolutely anything and my scissors will catch my eye and the next thing I know, I’m trying to cut my hair.
I don’t really know why I do it because I really want to have long hair but these sudden impulses of cutting my hair are ruining my chances of having long hair! Hopefully, I’ll able to control such urges in the future.
Imma tell you about my most recent haircut impulse. It happened sometime in April, so it’s been a while now. My best friend had slightly trimmed or cut her hair and that’s when I suddenly decided to cut my bangs. I have cut my bangs before but they were a disaster!!!!! I don’t wanna think about that time tbh. But this time they actually turned out pretty good. I felt super cute in them. And obviously, I had to tell everyone I knew I cut my bangs😂😂
But having a new haircut comes with many thoughts and I’m gonna go through some of them here.
No matter what kind of hairstyle you get, you’re definitely gonna love it for the first 5 minutes, no matter how good or bad. It’s kinda like you’re becoming a new character or you’re starting something new.
I don’t know what it is when it comes to haircuts, but other peoples validation feels extremely necessary. See, I’m not someone who cares about what everyone says to me but when I get a haircut I really only wanna hear good things about it, no matter how hideous it is. And if someone doesn’t match the energy I’m giving them, the joy just shatters completely.
Taking pictures with a new haircut is maybe kinda therapeutic, don’t you think? For me, it almost feels like I’m doing something productive. It’s just so nice to look at pictures with that new haircut. So refreshing!
So this might only apply to me, but unfortunately, my joy of cutting my hair lasts only for a few days. Maybe a week and a half at maximum. Going back to the story of cutting my bangs, I let it out for just a few days. I now prefer not to show it. In fact, it feels annoying even.
One of the not so good things about a haircut is when your hair starts to grow back a little. It’s kinda like at this middle ground where it’s obvious that you cut your hair recently but it’s definitely not a fresh cut. Coming back to my bangs, it’s now grown longer. It’s now at this weird stage where it’s too long to be called bangs but too short compared to the rest of my hair. I think that’s a reason I know find it annoying.
However, no matter what your previous experience with haircuts is, if you’re an impulsive person like me, it won’t be too long before you decide to do something else with your hair. I mean, in this case, I think the pros definitely outweigh the cons.
That’s it for now. I really spent quite a bit of time thinking about haircuts 😂😂. I really need to try and take up a hobby or something lol. Anyways, bye!!
