Secretly, I've been green with envy over women who can rock short hair and have eccentric but amazing fashion sense. I for one, am bored with my look. I want to have short hair so bad, but I am so scared it will take away my "attractiveness". I know that sounds vain, but its the truth. Sometimes I feel like I am trapped and I am tired of society and these friggin' magazines telling me what will snag me a man, or what will make me more desireable.

My aquarius rising is pushing me to break out! ahhh!

Anyone else feel this way?

I cut all my hair off last year. And it felt SO GOOD.
Now I'm growing it back.
I had the same fear as you. The worth and beauty of a woman is proportional to the length of her hair alot of times. Which is total BS in my opinion.
Lots of women look great with short hair. I think it emphasizes their feminine features.
I say go for it! It's only hair. It grows back in no time. Maybe you'll even decide you like it better on yourself. Who knows. If you don't take risks you cannot win.

I dress exactly how I want! Though...it's actually not all too exact, since I don't have access to everything I'd like to wear. Virgo Rising! I shoot for different in subtle ways - things that aren't so dramatic, but still attention catching. With Leo ruling the 12H and a Leo Mars, I want to leave an impression.

My true look is what I am transitioning towards at the moment. Personally I like different hair lengths on all women even myself but I have always preferred hair on the longer side for myself. Magazines tell me that society prefers women with light, straight hair which is the complete opposite of me, when I was younger flat irons and straighteners were my bestfriend now I just scoff, I rather have dark, big, healthy untamed hair and I am loving it.

If you've never had short hair, definitely try it, but be sure you have a great stylist and research some looks. Don't be afraid to ask your stylist what may or may not work. I actually did have a bad experience with getting my hair cut a bit too short, so I'm never doing that again, lol. But now at least I know what DOESN'T work for me. Go for it!

It was a bad move anyway, because, personally, I love, love, love beachy and wavy hair, and my hair is stick straight!

Fashion favours the bold!

I found two clips like the above at an antique store and I've been attaching them to my dress shirt collars. People love to compliment them.

Definitely. I do this like every year once the length is good enough. Locks of Love is a really good cause that's easy as well.

I think my "true" look is having all natural hair and skin. No make-up and simple clothing. I just feel good when I'm just myself.

Yup. Same here.

I don't have a true look. Im always changing my style, which I love. I had short hair for two years and I loved it. My hair is finally back to it original length, I am on a hair care journey right now, I want it to grow really long. I am not against cutting it again and i know I will again In the future. Short hair is so sexy to me, most woman can rock short hair too. It grows right back, don't be scurrrrred, lol.

We sound so alike. I was completely like that 2 years ago, and I had very short but very awesome hair... I have no idea what compelled me to grow it out, except that I wanted to try more versatile hairstyles. I also know exactly what you mean about wanting to break out and be your own woman, while still fearing just slightly that guys will turn you down because of it. It makes sense since none of us want to be alone, yet we shouldn't compromise ourselves just to catch a flirty guy's eye.

In my opinion, if the urge remains strong after a good period of time, go for it! It can't hurt. I didn't regret cutting all my hair off. It looked incredible, got many compliments, was fun while it lasted, and as I grew it out I rocked many other shorter but longer hair styles that were all great too. If a guy likes you for you, and maybe just short hair over long hair, you won't end up date-less. Some guys are superficial and only care about looks, so you don't want that kind of bs anyway. Plus, there are many guys out there who prefer women who are bold and stylish enough to carry short locks.

For me it's not that premeditated. I just go with what's comfortable and what I like (Venus in Virgo).

my "look" is big hair (my moon in leo loves that). preferably curly.whether i wear it in it's natural curly state, or straighten it and the curl it with an iron, to w.e size curls i want to achieve. or even if i style my hair straight, i need it to have alot of volume. i have naturally medium-long curly thick hair. i dont like neat hair on me. if its straightened, i like volume at the roots, and i love running my fingers through, so it looks less neat lol. i dont brush or comb my hair, unless its to detangle when i wash it. big curly long hair on me makes me look like a superstar lol.

i dont really wear much makeup. just some foundation or light coverage concealer under the eyes when needed. i dont like to fully conceal under my eyes though, because it ends up looking too perfect and that bothers me lol. i do not like full makeup. so foundation powders etc etc is a big no for me. i may wear a small amount of eyeliner on my top lid(never on the bottom) as close to the lash line as possible.i fill in my brows, and curl my lashes EVERYDAY. that is a must for me. its really only when im going out at night, that i amp it up with the makeup. either slightly dramatic eyes/neutral lips, or dramatic lips/neutral eyes.
