Short hair wasn’t always my thing. I used to think long hair was the only way to feel confident. But one day, I wanted a change. Something fresh. Something bold.
I walked into the salon with no plan, just a feeling. The stylist ran her fingers through my hair and asked, “What are we doing today?” I hesitated. Then, I took a deep breath and said, “Cut it short.”
The first snip felt like freedom. As my hair fell to the floor, so did the doubt. That’s when I realized—short hair isn’t just a style. It’s a statement.
