I listened to the AI and cut my hair

Well, for several months now, we’ve been experiencing some really hot spells in my country, and having long, thick hair doesn’t help at all. It’s been many years since I last cut my hair this short, but over the past few weeks, the idea has been on my mind a lot. I was afraid to do it myself since it had been so long since I’d cut my hair this short, and I wasn’t sure if it would look good on me.

Letting my hair grow this long (because, yes, I thought it was way too long) was a huge sacrifice since I never let it get too long. It’s always the same with me—no matter how much I want long hair, it ends up bothering me a lot. It makes me hot, the way it rubs against my skin bothers me, and I can’t even put it in a ponytail because my head starts hurting right away. Anyway, this afternoon I decided to talk to Gemini and send her a photo of myself. I told her, “Give me a layered pixie cut.” And this was the result:

That photo really inspired me to cut my hair, although now I realize it doesn't look the same since it looks shorter in the front in the photo than I actually cut it. But I think I'll fix that tomorrow—I'm not sure if I should leave it like this or fix it. Anyway, I loved how the photo looked, so I grabbed my scissors, comb, and chairs and started cutting my hair. I made four little ponytails and cut right below each one without thinking too much about it—otherwise, I’d regret it.



When I let my hair down, I really regretted it—my head looked like a square Lego brick—but I decided to calm down and trust the process because, at that point, there was really no turning back. The amount of hair I cut off from just those four snips was pretty shocking to me; it made me feel a little panicked.


My panic wasn't about having short hair—I've never really been afraid of change; on the contrary, I love trying new things. My fear was that it had been a really long time since I'd done one of these complicated pixie cuts, and I was worried my hair would end up uneven or something like that. I cut my hair without taking any more photos of the process because I needed to really focus. It took me over an hour, but I did it with a lot of patience and calm, without watching any tutorials—just following the shape of my head, hahaha. Here’s all the hair I cut off, though there was more that you can’t see completely because I was in the chair.

I really liked it, but I’d like to cut it a little shorter so it looks more like the Gemini reference photo. You can’t imagine how relieved I feel right now—I never imagined that today, tonight, I’d have short hair. I didn’t plan it; it was so sudden, but it was worth it. I couldn’t stand my long hair anymore, and I was tired of thinking every day about what to do with it so it wouldn’t look bad.


That looks cool! I actually love it! Great job and congrats on the courage!
Thanks alot!
