breakup haircut

MemoryWriter11 November 19th, 2022

as generic as it sounds, I broke up with a significant friend group of mine in January, and cut my hair to feel different. then I got involved again woth said friend group in June, left again this Autumn for good, hopefully, and I cut my hair again. I just hate it.


first I had long, ginger hair which I loved. my natural hair is black, I used bleaching powder at home to make it ginger. when I first cut it off, the remaining hair was just black, and I've been thinking of bleaching it out again, but was scared as lepk that I would wake up one day and associate my damned hair with those people again.


and now, after the second cut, it's just too short to my liking and as Winter is coming here in Europe, I would very much like my lost, long hair to warm up my neck, my shoulders, my back... it was just so warm 🥺 now I roll on shirts to my head and stuff not to feel weird.


so yeah they took away the warmth from my heart and I also took away the warmth from my neck XD 😔

I honestly think it wouldn't be a bad idea to open a wig shop for sad people.

Well the good news is that anyone can wear wigs, if you want to then wear one! Any wig shop could be a wig shop for sad people, if you're sad and just shop there 😉

A very symbolic hair cut indeed! haha, I hope you're doing better. Your hair will always grow back again :) When I cut my hair short I used it as an 'experiment' to try new hairstyles that I never got to try.

I wish I could cut my hair during the Summer. now I need bigger scarfs to fill the empty space of my hair. and scarfs for the indoors. and scarfs. it's interesting how my hair used to keep my neck warm, and I didn't really appreciated it~


I love experimenting, too~ but, another disadvantage of a short hair is, you have to wait till you can cut it again. xD but I use my round hair brush differently from day to day to ease my unease. when left in its naturally curly state, my hair is just reaching my ears, but when blow-dried with a hair brush, it can even reach my shoulders!! they just... curl back after a while 🤷🏽

Hi! How are you doing? I'm sorry you regretted that you had your hair cut and I hope it will grow back soon. Maybe wearing a wig is really a good option for you now. I like experimenting with my hair, but I enjoy my new style with a short haircut.

I always experiment with my hair - color, haircut, hairstyles, etc. Sometimes I buy a wig in order to figure out whether a new haircut is good for me. It's a great lifehack how to avoid regrets. By the way, any StyleSeat reviews? I look for a new beauty place so share your reviews or recommendations, please.

I can relate, after my divorce I cut my hair very short. I have very curly hair, if I straightened it, it isn't that bad. If I left it curly, it is awful. Not having learned my lesson, I recently cut my hair again for no reason. Now I walk around with my hair in a bun because I look too funny.


Don't worry, hair grows. You are still amazing!
