i dyed my hair blonde and chopped it off. took some definite getting used to but 5 days later ive decided i love it. i cut my morning hair time in half and ill probably save a bundle on shampoo and conditioner. the best part is when i see people i dont want to see at school or at the store or whereever. before i wouldve just walked faster and hoped they didnt see me but now i can walk right past them while they try to figure out where they've seen me before. this way i dont have to make fake conversation or seem falsely interested in whats going on with these people. ive loved it. the worst part is hearing the same thing over and over again from every person that sees me for the first time. i know my hair is blonde, i know its really short, and i know youre saying whatever youre saying because this change is big enough that you feel like you cant get by without saying something. i get it. hopefully we can get through this phase quickly. in the meantime i will be working on recognizing myself in the mirror. but i love it. i really do.
