JUST IGNORE THE BEST HAIRCUT FOR YOUR FACE SHAPE STUFF THATS NOT YOUR JOB TO FIGURE OUT ITS YOUR STYLISTS

I think the number one concern holding women back from cutting their hair is simple: what if it looks terrible? What if my face is too round/long/short/wide for short hair? Which I totally get. The last time I went in for a drastic cut was just after our wedding. I had been growing my hair out for two years and was suddenly… scared. The truth is, most women look smokin hot with short hair. The key is to find a style you like to inspire your cut, and a stylist you trust to make it look awesome on you. A good stylist will know how to modify your inspiration so that it suits your face and hair’s texture. As for the too round/too long/too short/too wide for short hair nonsense? Patently untrue. If you look good with your hair pulled back in a ponytail or in an updo, then you look good with short hair (and for my fellow plus size ladies looking for hair inspiration this tumblr has a ton of before and afters that have me convinced everyone should have short hair.) Bonus tip: Even though Ive had short hair since forever, I still get a little panicky about how my hair is turning out while I’m still in the stylists chair with my smock on. So I dont judge the final look until Ive got a pair of earrings in, and a regular shirt on my back. Smocks are unflattering, yall.
