Gesu

I grew up having long hair mainly because my parents wouldn't cut my hair shorter than shoulder-length, and I always wanted to have "boy hair" (for lack of a better term). However, I thought about having short hair so much that I worried about what people at school would think since I remembered some guys making fun of a girl for having the same short hair back in middle school, and of course my family since my mom remarked about how I supposedly wouldn't "look right". However, I never got that haircut until well after my 20th birthday and the reaction was actually positive, and filled with surprise as well from my coworkers, and I've kept it ever since. I also dealt with the same predicament when it came to dyeing my hair black (although I don't dye my hair a lot cuz I'm lazy & don't want my hair to fry x))

Now I'm considering dyeing my hair a different color (maybe red, pink, or purple) and that's much different because I live in a rather conservative town where having colored hair is not very common...
