    Default Uh oh I just chopped off all my hair

    Woops

    I'm not sure quite how to feel at the moment.

    On one hand, I'm super happy because all the dead, over processed hair has been chopped off and instead of my hair being multiple shades of blonde, it's now one beautiful blonde color.

    And I absolutely love this fucking hair cut. It's a chic, short cut with layers that look great whether I blow dry it straight, curl it, or simply just let it air dry. My hair looks full and thick. For bleached hair, finding a cut that does that is a miracle.

    But....

    I'm thinking I might have been a little impulsive with the cut because the boyfriend's reaction sort of said it all. He tried to hide it, but I could tell he didn't like it. The only words that came out of his mouth were "It's so short..."

    And I realized that I should've listened to my own advice on a post a while back. What women like might not necessarily be what men like.

    And now I think I might've just screwed myself over at work. Long and blonde has been a lifesaver for me, but girls have been catching on and getting weave and dying their hair platinum. And their money has definitely shot up. I think I might've just shot myself in the foot.

    It's not really that I regret it. I do love it but man I don't know now... Maybe it was a bad idea. I mean it's not that short it's like 1inch under my collarbone but going from long hair to that was a big chop.

    I do like the cut but now maybe I'm thinking I should start trying to grow it long again. It's been ages since I've had such short hair. I'm gonna test it out for the next couple of days at work and if I don't like it I'm gonna get some clip in extensions but gosh I hate wearing them.

    I have no idea what I'm really asking for here. Support? Suggestions? Experiences? Lol maybe I'm still just in a state of shock.

    ^A wig is also an option, so you can rock the same hairdo you had before your chop in the club, and enjoy the new, short cut in your real life. Though, if all the other dancers in your club are rocking the long blonde hair, perhaps your short cut will go over better than you anticipate since you'll stand out a lot more.

    I had to do the same thing a few months ago. I was very surprised but guys actually like it. I think the platinum on its own is enough to compensate for a lack of length. Plus men love healthy hair. Good luck!

    If you do get a wig make sure that it's securely fastened since you mentioned you work in urban clubs. I'm assuming that you do a lot of pole tricks and bouncing around. I usually wear wigs with combs in them to prevent malfunctions.

    post pics?

    Use hair extensions! Seriously, my hair is barely shoulder-lenght and even shorter in some places due to breakage, and I wear hair extensions all the time and people almost never realize I have them in (and certainly not customers, I fooled a guy at a wig shop once- he was like why do you need a wig? you have such long hair already and I was like uhhhm not my hair babe!)

    Genoveve I love that cut! If only I could go that short :/

    Update ladies. I didn't even go to work with short hair. Right by the bus to work there's a beauty supply so I walked in just curious about clip ins and the girl behind the counter hooked me up with some bomb $20 clip ins. They were fucking long but I'm tall so it worked out. She put them in and styled it for me and I went to work and everyone thought I got legit extensions. Also it was a slow night and I banked off this one guy with my new hair. And best part? He says "Damn I love weave." Hahaha

    Lol looks like I'll just enjoy my short cut outside of work. The clip ins are beautiful but synthetic so they tangle like crazy. I'm thankful I can take them out at the end of the night but now every day before work I'm gonna have to stop by the beauty supply so she can put them in. I have a feeling I'm either gonna have to invest in some real hair ones or just get actual extensions because buying $20 clip ins often and tipping her to put them in will probably end up being more money in the long run than just getting actual extensions.

    And thanks for all the tips and advice. I hope this thread is helpful to any girls that cut off their hair.

    Also I'll try to upload pictures soon. She did an amazing job blending the hair. I uploaded a picture of my hair with the extensions. When I get a chance I'll take a picture of the short cut.

    Your extensions look lovely! Although as you yourself said once: blonde is blonde. I've known a few very sexy short-haired hustlers who gave me and my elbow-length hair a run for my money. One of them had a chin length sharp bob and the other had a Mohawk. Plus, look at Amber Rose. If you think the new cut looks fab, you should try it out!
