Disappointed…

I was always insecure about my looks… so the past 3 years I have been wearing a mask. I wanted to try to step out of my zone… but ofc something had to happen…

It’s summer holidays, my dad kept telling me to go to the salon to make my hair shorter and thinner(since I have thick hair) but I didn’t want to, because I liked how long and thick it was. He forced me to go there and I told him,I will go if they only cut a little bit off and I showed with my hand like 5cm? And told him that they can only cut a little thinner…

Well ofc he *** that up, he told them to cut short a little bit (not stating how long is “a little bit”) so now my hair is like… 10-15 cm difference… like it’s generally chopped and I can’t even let it grow back before school because school begins in 3 days… like my hair rn is both side have two parts where one part is 20 cm and then the other one is 30 cm (like it’s very obvious) and it’s not even a triangle thing, it’s two parts… I don’t dare to go to school… it looks so ugly…

@ivoryPine3466

I'm sorry you had to get your hair cut when you didn't want to.

But please hear me when I say, this doesn't define you.

You are not ugly and never let anyone make you feel you are 🩷

@ivoryPine3466 I understand you must feel so upset by this. And it was not okay for someone to go around your decision with your haircut, even your dad. That is something very personal. I remember having my hair forcibly cut at a young age and hating it and feeling so ugly. I just want you to know that this is not forever. You don't have to pretend to like it, or the awkward regrowth phase, but just know it will grow back. In the meantime just do what you can to make yourself feel good with your appearance and self care and know this will be a distant memory one day.

Thanks❤️ and I am so sorry that has also happened to you before. Some parents just do anything they think it’s right… but yeah hair do grow back eventually :) and I hope people don’t laugh at my hair in the meantime 🥲

@ivoryPine3466 I do hope no one will be mean about it. Usually we think people will pay us more negative attention than they actually do, and all the worry was for nothing. But if anyone does tease you then it's really pitiful on their part to have such small concerns. Don't let that dim your light 💜
