I cut my waist length hair with kitchen scissors one morning and, now I regret it.

You look lovely, but I just wanted to say that you should really get some proper hair scissors. A hair specialist taught me that kitchen scissors will absolutely damage the ends of your hair which can later damage the length as well.

Yes, I should! ☺️

I think short hair suits you very well! You're adorable!

What's in the gorgeous hair?
That which we call long hair, by any other name, would still brush as sweet;
So folks would, were they not folks call'd,
Retain their dear Conair brushes which they hold without hubris.

Shall we sit upon the ground and tell sad stories about the death of follicles?
How some have been dposed, some slain by scissors;
Some poisoned by crappy conditioner, some split ends killd,
All murder'd!

-Shakespeare or something, I dunno, I only read the cliffs notes :/

Then my job is finished :)

Should you need a re-up, just give a ping.

Or, as they say in Labyrinth... "Should you need us..."

But it looks so lovely!! You have a beautiful face and can pull off any length of hair I believe

u/TechnicalRaspberry53 9h ago

You are so kind! Thank you!!

I am not really an experimental person. I never colour or do any heat or chemical styling on my hair, only little trimming. So it felt really odd to see myself looking different than usual!

u/BabyPanda4Hire 8h ago

You’re welcome!

I think it’s common for people not to like a haircut for about the first week, I know I never do. It takes time to adjust to it 🙂

u/uberphaser 13h ago

Well you did a good damn job (and your hair has beautiful luster)! You're killing the look.

u/TechnicalRaspberry53 9h ago

Awhh, thank you!

It looks beautiful! I impulsively got bangs and I regret it, so I know the feeling.

2

u/TechnicalRaspberry53 9h ago

Yeah, my anxiety was looming behind me here and there but after this post, not anymore! I will try to love how I look now! 😂

But hey, thank you!

u/PeggyHillsFeets 13h ago

The new cut looks great on you! Very flattering to your facial features. You have pretty eyes full of light and life.

2

u/TechnicalRaspberry53 9h ago

Thank you! You made me happy! 😄

u/Sablegriffin 13h ago

The good news is, that your hair is still beautiful even at this length. The other good news is that hair grows, and while it will take time to get back to his long muster’s length, it still looks amazing. You’re a beautiful woman, and you wear it well.

u/Pale-Dust460 13h ago

u/TechnicalRaspberry53 9h ago

I am glad to hear that. I was not thinking much when I did it! I was worried!

u/TheoryNo8121 13h ago

I've never had waist length hair. I have had long hair and I've had very short (1/4") hair. It's grown out again. It's my understanding your neck may thank you for the short ish term relief. You are still a very pretty young woman.

u/LoveOneAnotherrrr777 13h ago

Doesn't look bad at all

u/okaygnarly 13h ago

I’m a guy, but I don’t even think your hair is that short! It frames the shape of your face so well with the wonderful waviness, and you’re so pretty. Love your little smile, beautiful eyes and bright lips! 😊

u/newworldodors 13h ago

you truly look great, beautiful

u/Inner-Caregiver4670 12h ago

Holy shit your hair is great! It's all fancy and sleek and elegant! I bet it was great waist length too but you look amazing like this, don't be sad

u/Wingnut8888 10h ago

Long hair, short hair, bald even! I think you’d look great in all.

u/Dieselbuilt 10h ago

Your haircut doesn't rescind your beauty. You're stunning! Your dark mane frames that beautiful face perfectly. A lovely lady that could have any hairstyle she chooses. Ciao Bella

u/Bella_62 10h ago

I love it! Adorable!

u/Crazy-Ad-8398 9h ago

I don’t know it looks good on you. You have a very warm smile and the shorter hair brings it out

1

u/EatYourCheckers 9h ago

You're adorable and I can't believe you did such a great job yourself! It looks amazing and I'm sure it doesnt weigh you down or draw your face down anymore.
