And then it happened—one random afternoon, I walked into a salon and said:
« Chop it off. »
The hairstylist gave me a long, questioning look, but I nodded. I was ready.
The First Cut – A Moment of Shock 😲
The sound of the scissors slicing through my hair was both terrifying and thrilling.
As each strand fell to the floor, I felt a rush of emotions:
✔ Excitement 🎉
✔ Fear 😨
✔ Liberation 🌟
When the hairstylist spun me around to face the mirror, I barely recognized myself. My long, flowing locks were gone, replaced by a sleek, short cut.
And guess what?
I LOVED IT.

At first, I thought I’d regret cutting my hair, but instead, I felt free.
Here’s what I discovered:
✔ Short hair is effortless – No more hours of washing & styling!
✔ I felt more confident – My beauty wasn’t in my hair, it was in ME.
✔ I experimented with new styles – Who knew hair gel and cute clips could be so fun?!
✔ People noticed ME, not just my hair – My features stood out more, and I embraced it.
And the best part? I realized that hair grows back.
Would I Do It Again? Absolutely.
Cutting my long hair wasn’t just about a physical change—it was about stepping out of my comfort zone and embracing something new. It taught me that sometimes, letting go is the best thing you can do.
