@Skittlemasterrawr well I'm sure if get judged by my new boss ugh society
Generally whe I feel this way its about gender dysphoria, long hair doesn't feel right bc in current western culture it typically means "girl" and that's not who I am so I feel like it doesn't fit me and get dysphoria about it. It's a shame though because in my actual culture cutting hair is a sacred thing only meant as a ritual/mourning for tragedy so long hair is seen as not only unisex but important. Although this, and hair dye, is incredibly common for people who have suffered from trauma because it makes for a safe and temporary way to take back your own body, especially if it would upset your former abuser(s) so it is a kind of symbolistic freedom!

@Skittlemasterrawr yes it does but I wasn't comfortable in my own skin still ain't but trying my best to learn to love myself so if you feel comfortable with it then don't let anyone tell u any different you go girl!!!!
@Harley.Q Thank you I hope you progress rapidly with the self love I love daily affirmations
I did it once but cause my hair was so knotted it looked like I had bad dreads and I was pregnant too but I mean if that's how you wanna feel free go for it I will say don't head bang without hair cause you forget you ain't got it anymore and you might fall over also if you're prone to headaches then I'm telling you no hair makes less pressure so no headaches caused by your hair lol
@Harley.Q exactly I always got the headaches
@TheBigSpook I actually Did it
