  • Hey loves,
    I did the big chop for the first time! January is the month that I always cut or trim my hair. I knew that I wanted to go shorter. Have you done the "big chop"? Have you considered it?
    How did you feel?

    I did it twice. Unfortunately due to illness I didn't feel too pretty. But by God's grace I'm much better. Your hairstyle is cute❤👍

    This cut is so cute on you! It really fits you! I look forward to seeing it grow out this year. Yes I've done the big chop back in June 2013. I was just sick of my damaged hair, I felt relieved after but awkward cause I never had my hair that short. But it was exciting to see it that healthy and watch it grow out. I've done several mini chops since then

    I actually felt relieved, stress free . My hair was long but I was pretty insecure but when I cut it , I felt this weight lift off my shoulder .

    I did my big chop last month due to damaged hair and I was getting sick of it and wanted to try something new .. at first I was like omg can I please have my long hair back, but after styling it, I LOVE the short cut. I don't look like a baby anymore lol I actually look my age ! it has grown a lot since I cut it but honestly I'm loving this shortness and so glad I did it! Love short hair on you by the way 😘

    After I big chopped I felt so beautiful. For years I dealt with confidence issues and not loving myself, almost hiding behind my hair. I felt so amazing and to this day I don’t regret it. The only thing I’d say is don’t shave your own head like I did, make sure you know you really want to, and once you do it, EMBRACE YOUR BALD HEAD

    I have always had long hair and I got a relaxer when I was about 18. I did a big chop in March and I felt great and really rejuvenated. I get more compliments now on my hair than I did before. I love it! I like your video, you have really pretty hair

    I freakin LOVE this hair cut on you!!! So beautiful!! I went natural last year. At the end of March, it will be 1 year of me having no relaxers. And on June 27, 2017 I did my big chop!! I felt so good afterwards. I did my own big chop cause I never had short hair before and I wanted to be the one to do it. I felt so free!! It was a new beginning for me and I never been happier with my decision. I LOVE my natural hair and I LOVE my natural curls!!

  • @tanayjawhite4040
    @tanayjawhite4040 6 лет назад +1

    I just did the big chop this past Sunday and I am only 15. Most of my life I had perms but it started to get really damaged because I had to start doing my own hair. I started to wear more and more wigs to grow it out. So far my curls are still really tight but I was growing my hair out for almost a year (it will be a year in may) and I feel so exposed to be honest. I’ve never really had short hair. It’s a huge change for me actually, but right now I would say I don’t regret it. I’m looking forward to increasing my confidence actually.

    My last big chop was 2/2017. I was frustrated with my hair because I had so many setbacks. It can be daunting in the beginning, but as you learn to truly take care of your hair and yourself it becomes rewarding.

    I don't remember what year I did my first big chop, but I took some electric clippers and buzzed it all off. It felt so good. I kept my buzzing my hair for years because I loved it so much and I also bleached it blond - before it was a look.
    Now I'm trying to grow my hair out and I suck at taking care of it because I'm just not used to having hair because I haven't had to do anything for years.
    I love that I found your channel because I feel like we have somewhat similar hair density although I think my curls are a little tighter than yours.
    Love you 💗

      @princesskay9995 6 лет назад +33

    I did a big chop about 9 months ago, I’ve got the same texture as you, it was a bit longer but the back looks exactly the same ! I’m just waiting impatiently for it to grow now, I’ve got a short bob which is pretty cute finally but I prefer longer hit on me. This haircut really suits you ❤️

    i big chopped in 2016 bc of heat damage and color damage. i felt so liberated but at the same time i was depressed and felt ugly. but now my hair has grown so much and is much more healthier than before. i did get a little bit more of heat damage due to having leave out on my sew in but it’s not that bad. every time it’s time for a trim more of that heat damage goes away so i’m not to worried about it. i also dyed my hair this reddish copper brown color and i’m taking good care of it so i won’t get further more damage

    Love your cut which I saw on IG through Carol’s Daughter’s IG 2 days ago! I did my big chop from having heat damaged armpit length natural hair into a curly bob on 5/10/2013 at a natural hair salon here in Atlanta, even though I transitioned back in June 2007, and was completely natural by July 2008. When I did my big chop, it was surreal for my hair to be so short, but I loved it, since I felt liberated & nervous! My hair is now almost mid back length, if it’s not there already, since my hair has grown since having it straightened last late October for the first time since early November 2013. I’m all for the big chop!

    Girlll I just did mine a day ago! And I was just so fed up with the frizz, no curl definition except for in my kitchens and my ends breaking off no matter how many oil treatments/leave in conditioner I had in my hair 24/7 !! So I chopped off just like you ! I felt sad that I didn’t have my length but liberated from the damage that was weighing my hair down! Now I’m just ready for it to flourish!!!

    I didn’t big chop. But today I was looking at my hair and I saw that the smallest bit of my hair didn’t have much dead/heat damaged hair. Like one or two inches. It was mostly curly so I cut the dead off. I know it’s barley any, but that small bit of hair looks so healthy. Keep in mind I haven’t seen my natural healthy hair in 3 years. I love it. I cants wait to cut the the rest off. It’s a process

    I did three big chops, the first one I was discouraged bc the stylist was trying to talk me out of it and others refused to do it! The second one I felt liberated and I buzzed and was so happy with it but I had people tell me I looked better before and whatever but you couldn’t tell me anything 😭 and the third time I had to because of this position I had and my hair was dyed purple and I dyed it brown but it was limp and lifeless. My hair flourished after that but it was hard growing it out 😭and I dyed it again 😂 might do another buzz this summer! This looks great on you!

    i’m glad
    you did the cut cuz your hair is super thin like mine and shorter looks full…. and
    as i always say ! it’s only hair… besides your face is beautiful so go on with your pretty self ❤😂

    I started my big chop last month and I kept the middle long (chin length) yesterday I cut that and I love it. No more relaxed hair for mebut now I feel like I want color, so I'll do a red rinse.

    Looks great! Yes I've done the big chop before. I actually just did my third big chop in Nov. 2017. =)
