SIKE lol I have zero regrets and love my new short hair. I just wanted to do a deep dive as to why we, as women, are so attached to our long hair. This is not to say that we are not allowed to like long hair. But to analyze why some people become hostile when someone else cuts their hair. Enjoy!
HOW DO PEOPLE HAVE SO MUCH TIME THAT THEY CAN HATE ON SOMEONE GETTING A HAIRCUT ON THE INTERNET LIKE I HAVEN’T HAD THE TIME TO CLEAN MY KITCHEN SINCE LIKE 2012
I think youd look super pretty based on your pic. Plus some women just dont have nice hair when it's too long! Its either too thick or too scraggly or just too much work. Do what makes YOU happy and if people aren't happy that youre happy, are they really your friend??
@@jennyrose9454 aww thank you! I'm just afraid I might end up looking like a lil boy if I got a similar cut to hers but at the same time... I like a challenge XD
“People would KILL to have your curly hair!” Yeah… that’s why she donated it to those who NEED it. WHAT IS NOT CLICKING FOR THESE PEOPLE. A HAIRCUT IS NORMAL💀💀
@@disneydiscoverychannel8838 Because both cancer and chemo are already emotionally very draining, even without the hair falling out. Some people need a wig as support, for a bit of stability.
I’m shocked to the people saying “what a waste”.. she wasn’t happy with the length anymore, she wanted a change feeling weighed down by it physically and mentally. That change she made for herself was something good, not only for herself, but for whoever is receiving that beautiful healthy hair she worked so hard on, giving someone some happiness that she just gave herself, and giving herself a transformation, while also giving that to someone else! It’s truly beautiful and I’m so proud of her for breaking out of that shell that she felt so trapped in, she’s glowing with confidence!
I cut 20 inches off recently. I was enjoying my new look until my people started saying the exact same hateful things to me... I NEEDED this video today
They really don’t realize how high maintenance long hair is, ESPECIALLY long curly hair!! That is NOT easy. My hair is around the length yours used to be and I honestly contemplate chopping it off sometimes too. Another thing that isn’t easy is that people always compliment my hair NOT me. So imagine how I felt as young girl growing up with people just complimenting the beauty of my hair and not me myself. Recently I cut bangs though, and that was VERY empowering 😊.
When you said "It is not my job to be pretty" I literally pumped my fist in the air and said "YESSS PENNY!" Preach it, girl. P.S. I love your new haircut.
As a guy with very long hair, it pisses me off when people say I have to cut it off. Its my hair and I can do what I want with it. The same goes for you or anyone. Do what YOU want. Power to you
Yeah but a guy with very long hair looks weird and gross af. A man’s hair should not be longer than a woman’s hair just like a man’s boobs shouldn’t be bigger than woman’s boobs. 🤭🤧
I'm sitting here with a mustache, leg hair bout 2 inches long, and a unibrow. Peniel, you and your sister Salem have sincerely taught me many lessons about loving myself and my Hispanic features. You should be proud of yourself for setting an example of self prioritization and self love. Hateful commentors haven't watch a deep thoughts deep condition video and it ~shows. Much love 💛✊🏽
I dont know but I had hair below my butt and went for a pixie cut at home because I was just so frustrated with it. With the tangles, with how painful it was when you tug on it while you are sleeping, how it got caught on everything, the hours spent to maintain it, and especially the attachment I had to it. When I cut it, it was one of the best feelings I've ever had - I felt like I melted off dead weight off my shoulders as cliche as it sounds. Showers are now so much more satisfying; I can run my fingers through my scalp with shampoo so quickly and easily and it feels so good. Drying is even quicker. I no longer value myself based upon the length of my hair. It also brings out some features I had on my face that I didn't know I adored. If you feel like you want a haircut, go for it ladies! Hair will absolutely grow back even if it takes time. It will make you feel a sort of peace and give you a new change to your routine! Challenge yourself to try new styles with a new haircut! Have fun and good luck.
I have done the same thing. I had hair past my waist. I was tired of the weight, the forever to dry, the pain washing it. You go and LOVE your short hair! Woot!
I have cut my hair short three times in my 30 years of living, and all three times it was just a breeze having short hair 😂 but honestly my heart belongs to long hair ♥ it's currently WL and I'm trying g to grow it to HL
Those girls feel attacked by what she did, because unconsciously (or not) they've always felt like owning a superior femininity/beauty because of long hair (or wanted to reach that goal to feal superior) and now see that ideal of femininity/beauty undermined.
Shouldn’t we be celebrating how liberated and happy someone else is? Building them up! Sharing in that joy. Penny, you are incredible! Because you are you!
When 1000s of random women on the internet give an opinion maybe that's just general consensus and not hate? She will be in her 30s by the time her hair is back to that length. If my sister choped her curls I think I would cry. All that self expression and confidence all to look like a forever 21 mushroom.
@@itsallperspective7415 So what, what 1000 strangers have to say about someone else - I really don't get it. Let the woman be, let her shave it all off for that matter! There are ways of saying things, and calling someone a Forever 21 mushroom doesn't sound particularly nice. I hope your sister does whatever she wants with her hair, and I hope you will be rooting for her if that time comes. Choosing what to do with your own vody because of strangers' consensus is absolute nonsense, think before you speak next time
@@itsallperspective7415 people can be in support of others cutting their hair, without actually wanting to cut their own🙄 Your comment is ironic considering your username
“I DEFINITELY WAS!” 😆 so many cultures believe energy etc is stored in the hair, and honestly it makes a lot of sense that you have been making so many shifts in your life that it was time to release that old energy that was no longer serving you. You’re beautiful Penny. Inside and out. Looking forward to witnessing what’s to come with this new energy. ❤️
Yes yes and yes!!! Im a true believer of cutting mine when its time to let go. I cut my locs after going through a bad breakup .. next time ill just do a apple cider vinegar wash first to see if it Helps lol
I love how you coming out with the psychological defense mechanism. My major is psychology and I love seeing you speak about these issues 💕 you’re beautiful
I’ve done dramatic cuts like that before and it really does feel like a fresh start. So much energy goes into growing and maintaining long hair, when you’re ready for the chop it’s like a rebirth. You look great!!!
Women and girls who say they'd kill for long curly hair clearly have never had long curly hair. It does look beautiful but it's time consuming. When I started CGM I became so out of shape bc working out meant I'd have to wash my hair more often and wash days were so time consuming. I cut my hair shoulder length and stopped really caring if my curls were stretched out after putting my hair in a bun to go for a run. Sometimes I look back at pictures of me with my long hair and yeah, it was really pretty. But there's more to life than maintaining the prettiest version of yourself.
As you get older (and your back and neck remind you of this constantly,) the curly girl wash and style regimen can be physically overwhelming. I gave up on diffusing very early on and even scrunching out the crunch is now a major “fill in the blank” for me to do! I only hope the rest of the world thinks it’s worth all the effort I put into this “natural hair” of mine. I’m certainly beginning to ponder if it is....
When I had short hair, the most common response from other women was "I love your hair! I wish I was brave enough to do that". I never lacked male attention. Now I'm growing it out because *I* want to.
"There are so many people who could have been born female and appreciated long hair".....do they know men can grow their hair out...and historically have? Since the dawn of time?💀 pathetic.
i love how this video is so educational on how messed up our society is but many people will still not understand a single thing that was said & still hate on others
It’s clear that some of these folks wanted to vicariously live through Penny and her long, curly hair. So when Penny did want SHE wanted to HER OWN BODY, they felt like spoiled their fantasies. Thankfully Penny is fully aware of projecting and jealousy, and SHE loves her short hair. ❤️
Yo I wish “Influencers” could be like Penny she spreads positivity and you learn something from her videos. The people who we call “Influencers” now in day spread negativity and is shaping our society to trash. I just got to say thank you penny also Salem I enjoy her videos and honestly there one of the few you tubers who are making a difference 💙
My A&P teacher said “it baffles how we as a species determine the standard of beauty based off of dead things. The only living thing we look at when we see a person is their eyeballs. Hair, dead. Skin, dead. Nails, dead”. It stuck with me forever.
I really love how you turned this into an analysis on how society views women's hair. Everything you said is spot on and we should all be free to make choices about our own bodies rather than have pressure from society to fit into a certain standard. And this is coming from someone who genuinely loves long hair xD
Calm down yall it's not that deep. It's nothing I haven't heard before and it doesn't offend me lol. I have tried just about everything including injections. I also have lupus which gets in the way. Haven't had hair for over 5 years so I'm used to it. The doctors believe once my lupus is under control, it would be easier to treat the alopecia.
I showed my boyfriend and told him I wanted the same hair, it's stunning and suits you perfectly. It's funny that people think you actually give a dang what they think of your hair lmao this video is da bomb
1:11 i cried too...out of happiness! i felt weirdly sentimental as someone who has watched your videos for so long and has seen you grow and transform into the beautiful person you are today. watching you cut your hair felt like a new chapter in the journey we followers share with you. we are LOVING the new look and this video was so well-articulated. more power to you!
you and salem are killing it calling out messed up beauty standards 💜 glad you're happy with the change, you look so happy. I cut my hair drastically recently and it feels so much better, so I feel you.
I'm 52 years old and I wish I had had your perspective regarding beauty standards at that age. Thank you! I'm sending this link to my niece who is a beauty and I want her to think like you!
I can't believe people still have nasty things to say when women cut their hair. It's just hair! I've shaved my head three times in my lifetime so far and It's such an experience.
@@desertrat5543 I know right! I can’t understand why strangers get upset over another stranger cutting their hair 🤦♀️ my mom has the exact same mentality. She gave us soooo many insecurities by always making comments on our appearance.
Not to mention Martin’s reaction if they are so concerned about the “male gaze”. Cheers to a man who respects his wife and finds her hotter than everyone else despite the length of her hair 🥂🍻🤗 Give me a break people. If you’re jealous just say so. 🙄
@@Squeegees123 well it is sad that she’s using extensions for external (specifically for male) satisfaction 🤷🏻♀️ and her reaction to penny’s cut was weirdzzz
I had super long curly hair about 2 years ago . I actually DID have a mental/emotional breakdown and cut it off. Since then I’ve kept it short while never really liking it. I found your channel tonight while looking for short curly styles. I’m now actually looking at getting a shorter cut with some shorter pieces in front. You look GREAT with the short hair. I also LOVED the long curls as well. But more impressively I really LOVED your attitude about the whole thing and how much you embrace your new look. Plus it was so sweet seeing your partners reaction. I’m reframing my short hair . Thank you so much for sharing your light 💎❤️
I'm just saying, folks had the same thought process when they were cutting their hair mad short in the 1920s and 1930s. But at the end of the day, Penny's curls are giving bounce, its giving shine, its giving no split ends, its giving hydrated
seeing you has given me the confidence to FINALLY cut my long curly hair. I've always wanted shorter hair and I have always been talked out of it. BUT IM DOING IT!!💕💖💖
I cried watching this because it really hurts when even people who otherwise are very open and supportive fall for the lies of society and don't want to admit it. And because you put it so perfectly and it healed a little bit of my broken self love
I can’t believe people feel entitled to judge what you do with your hair. You looked beautiful with you long hair and you look beautiful now. 🤗happy for you!
I stand by my original comment I had made when I first saw it: You're ROCKING that hair! It suits you beautifully! You look fun, and free, and like a weight has been lifted off of you - because literal weight has been lifted off of you! People look their most beautiful when they're happy - and getting that hair cut off has made you SHINE! 🙌🙌💜🙌🙌
This is a sensitive subject to many women. I, myself, like me better with long hair but I hope one day I will feel good in any shape and form. You look amazing and it's important you like it
“It is not my job to be pleasing to other people’s eyeballs” I love it!!!! And protein Growing out of holes on your head haha that’s great!!! Penny you are awesome!!!!
I feel like I’m looking at the real you with this cut - and that’s not to say that short or long is better or worse but that you’ve made a change to reflect your inner being and it shows! I love, love, love it
This comment is EXACTLY what this whole thing is about! We see a inner PERSON whereas when standard beauty protocol grabs the attention first, the PERSON is lost. And in the world of some men, they never want to find the inner PERSON anyway.
All the negative comments you have been getting after you took the decision to cut your OWN hair, just goes to show that people will rather ruin someone's happiness taking a decision they never could as a result of deep self-esteem issues than heal and foucus on them selfs. People keep staying mad. Slay queen! Never dim your lights to let someone else feel comfortable. Shine as bright as you can!!
I just cut my long curly hair. Everyone was “I can’t believe you did that “ I love it my hair now. The way it feels in the shower. Fixing it in ways I never could have before. Who cares what others say and what MEN want!!!!
Love the short hair on you, it looks so fun and I feel like it suits your personality. Good for you for staying true to yourself and your individual style :)
I literally almost fell out of my chair when I read that comment too xD I actually feel really bad for them, I hope they are able to find their own happiness someday.
@@eypu999 there’s definitely guys in my life with longer hair than me lol guys always do this thing where they think they’re incapable of doing what women do. They can wear make up, they can have long hair, they can wear tight clothes… the only ppl stopping them are their own damn selves.
@@natalyrausch I feel that it's more complicated than that. Sure, you can say that men are largely preventing themselves from doing whatever but it's the social constructs that really prevents people from doing certain things. Bottom line is that the patriarchy hurts both men and women, because of the rigid roles we are pressured to stick to. Sometimes these roles are so rigid that it could pose a threat to your safety if you defy them.
I always laugh when I hear the comment that “men prefer long hair.” First of all obviously, who cares? But second of all my husband actually prefers short hair (if I ever get a pixie I think he’ll start happy dancing). Is that stopping me from growing it out again? No because it’s my body and we both know that (and he thinks I’m beautiful anyway), but men aren’t a monolith!! They have different preferences!
My husband just wants me to be okay with what my hair looks like and not be in crisis. He has preferences, but ultimately, it’s my hair. I didn’t ask him when I dyed it green. I didn’t ask him when I went blonde. I didn’t ask him when I took six inches of dead hair off and got my waves and curls back. It isn’t his hair, and if he’s that invested, he can buy a wig I may or may not wear.
@@katefarr2036 yeah exactly! My husband supports me no matter what I do with my hair. Like, when prompted he’ll say he loves short hair but if I respond with “cool but I’m growing my hair out” he goes “great! It’ll look gorgeous on you!” Etc etc
@@bbygrlpt2 Yep. Every couple of years I let my hair grow long and it's such a pain to detangle, dry, and style. Plus it sheds everywhere and makes a mess. Whenever I get fed up and cut it to shoulder length I always get the same comments saying, "omg noooo your hair was so pretty; what man is going to like you now??" but, ironically, I get more attention from men when my hair is shorter because it suits me more lol. People are so rude and nosy for no reason.
I shaved my hair off 5 years ago. It was liberating. I'm actually contemplating doing it again. Everyone told me for years that I look like a boy, I looked better with longer hair. I felt insecure but I pushed through it and it gave me a taste of my own choices and how much freedom I have to do anything i want.
I cut my hair back in highschool and got those same comments as a young teen. But guess what? 8 years later im still rocking a a pixie cut and i'd never go back :) You look amazing!!
It's really refreshing to see a young woman on youtube with such clarity and self-confidence. Wonderful role model. If you care, I love your curls, long or short, but mostly I love how you model self-respect.
So true what you said about the internalized expectation that women have to have long hair to be feminine! It should not matter what kind of haircut a person is having! I think you should wear your hair the way you feel most comfortable having it!! Edit: I am aware that my opinion should not matter here, however, I still wanted to say that I think that you look absolutely beautiful with your current haircut!
U realize its based on biology though right? I have a daughter and son, my son had very little hair and didnt need a haircut for almost 2 years. My daughter had a head full of hair and now at 1 yo, her hair is down to her waist. Think about how many bald men are out there vs women. Biologically, women grow more and longer hair on their heads than men so that translates to beauty standards, or "internalized expectations" as you call it.
@@natc1008 I have a male friend who has hair down to his hips. I also know many women who can't seem to grow their hair past their shoulders. It is not purely based on biology.
@@natc1008 thank you for your comment! While I am not very sure about women generally growing more/longer hair than men (I believe this is rather influenced by genetics), the point I was trying to make is that people should not have to adopt what their respective gender roles prescribe them to look like (long hair/ short hair; skirt/ pants etc.) just to please or fit the standard! I hope we can grow to a more accepting, liberating and self- fulfilling lifestyle that does not dictate or restrict one’s choices :)
@@natc1008 Yes I absolutely agree! I also believe that beauty is diverse and cannot or should not be pinned down to one standard! But just as you said the most important thing is that we are satisfied and like the way we ourselves look regardless of what everyone else says!
Yeees girl, spot on with EVERYTHING!! You look frikkin amazing in your short curly hair, im just starting my shorr curly hair journey and you're so inspiring!
I actually prefer my hair short, but I like to grow it out for 3 years and then chop it all off as short as you. People think I'm crazy, and I just enjoy being able to do cool styles with long hair but after awhile it's too much maintenance so I cut it off when it gets too long
I love it Penny. I started watching you back when it was still “curly Penny”, but I come back for you. Your personal expression of inclusion and mental health self care is so inspiring. As a clinical social worker you have my mental-health-professional-stamp-of-“I’d-share-that-video-with-others”. I would have said stamp of approval, but you and I know you don’t need anyone else’s approval. You have value and worth just being you. That simple. Thank you for such meaningful content.
I needed this. I love everything about this video and can relate to all of it. Yesterday I went from long, curly hair that would get caught in my bum cheeks in the shower to hair so short it’s shaved at the neck. The change is affecting me physically and emotionally that I could write a book to explain. I don’t love the cut, but I don’t regret going short. I do, however, completely love your look. Cheers to no more neck pain! I’ll be following you now to find out how to manage short hair. Thank you.
The fun thing about short hair is that, if you don't love the cut, it doesn't take long before you can go get a different cut. There's lots of variety in short hair, and you can find the cut you love. Best wishes in finding the best look you love.
I am over here cheering and clapping and screaming "Yaaaaaas, you tell them!" I am so glad that I clicked on this video! I feel this is a video that many people need to see, if not everyone. I feel like everything you said was just common sense, but then again, some lack that and need a reminder! Thank you for sharing this and even though, you didn't need to explain yourself, as this was your decision, I am so glad you did!
I’m Afro-Latina and watching your videos has made me love myself and my features. I see myself in you and continue to inspire me everyday . Hair length DONT mean nothing . You’re already pulling of short hair as it is ( not everyone can do that) . So keep SLAYING penny 💇🏽♀️💅🏾
Penny you are such an amazing role-model for your audience. This is exactly what an influencer should look like. You deserve every success that comes your way and I wish you nothing but happiness. Your hair and your personality are perfect!
Penny I adore your haircut and I think you look stunning. I personally like my hair long as I find it easier to take care of and I prefer how my curls look. I also love long curly hair in men, it's one of the most attractive things to me. But hair is just hair, people should realize it's not that deep and different people like different things. Let's just all let people have the hair they want to have.
You know, to pull off long hair and maintaining it is already amazing but then pulling off short hair and lookin SNATCHED, that's on some godly level I cannot comprehend.
Having long hair is heavy besides all the maintenance I'm constantly growing my hair out and donating it since I myself had cancer at 15, it feels like giving back. Ever single time I always feel lighter literally. Your hair looks great Penny and you did an amazing thing for others.
It is wonderful that you took the time and effort to donate your hair! I'm sure the recipients appreciate it! I also donated hair for about 3 times. Yes, long hair is very high maintenance. I also love long hair. But I had the time then. Once I became a little more older and busier, I appreciate short hair more. I might be taking a break from growing long hair for now. The short hair is bouncy and airy and a fresh new look for me. Plus, you can also use hair extensions if you want a day of long hair.
I love, love, LOvE how your hair turned out!!! I personally like having short hair myself too. It's comfortable, convenient and just feels so breezy. My husband actually prefers when I cut my hair into a cute layered bob. So no, not all men prefer long hair on women. Girl, ur hair was gorgeous when it was long, but its also gorgeous cut short, and u rock the hell out of it!!!!!! U look beautiful, and u also look so confident too, I'm loving it. ✌️

I dont know but I had hair below my butt and went for a pixie cut at home because I was just so frustrated with it. With the tangles, with how painful it was when you tug on it while you are sleeping, how it got caught on everything, the hours spent to maintain it, and especially the attachment I had to it. When I cut it, it was one of the best feelings I've ever had - I felt like I melted off dead weight off my shoulders as cliche as it sounds. Showers are now so much more satisfying; I can run my fingers through my scalp with shampoo so quickly and easily and it feels so good. Drying is even quicker. I no longer value myself based upon the length of my hair. It also brings out some features I had on my face that I didn't know I adored. If you feel like you want a haircut, go for it ladies! Hair will absolutely grow back even if it takes time. It will make you feel a sort of peace and give you a new change to your routine! Challenge yourself to try new styles with a new haircut! Have fun and good luck.
I have done the same thing. I had hair past my waist. I was tired of the weight, the forever to dry, the pain washing it. You go and LOVE your short hair! Woot!
I have cut my hair short three times in my 30 years of living, and all three times it was just a breeze having short hair 😂 but honestly my heart belongs to long hair ♥ it's currently WL and I'm trying g to grow it to HL

Those girls feel attacked by what she did, because unconsciously (or not) they've always felt like owning a superior femininity/beauty because of long hair (or wanted to reach that goal to feal superior) and now see that ideal of femininity/beauty undermined.
@@nickn2794 i don't think we should try to impress or satisfy others. They don't even care about us.
Shouldn’t we be celebrating how liberated and happy someone else is? Building them up! Sharing in that joy. Penny, you are incredible! Because you are you!
apparently not because people not happy so they hate seeing others happy
YES we should!!!
Amen
When 1000s of random women on the internet give an opinion maybe that's just general consensus and not hate?
She will be in her 30s by the time her hair is back to that length. If my sister choped her curls I think I would cry.
All that self expression and confidence all to look like a forever 21 mushroom.
@@itsallperspective7415 So what, what 1000 strangers have to say about someone else - I really don't get it. Let the woman be, let her shave it all off for that matter! There are ways of saying things, and calling someone a Forever 21 mushroom doesn't sound particularly nice. I hope your sister does whatever she wants with her hair, and I hope you will be rooting for her if that time comes. Choosing what to do with your own vody because of strangers' consensus is absolute nonsense, think before you speak next time
Lol people are really dramatic over a haircut 😂
Queen Michelle 😍😍😍😍. Glad you came to see the level of offense this weirdos took 🤣
Love your channel!
Then cut your long curly hair if it's just a haircut....
@@itsallperspective7415 offense level: replying to a thread from 2 months ago to order a complete stranger to do something 🤣🤣🤣
@@itsallperspective7415 people can be in support of others cutting their hair, without actually wanting to cut their own🙄 Your comment is ironic considering your username
the cut really accentuates her facial features, she looks gorgeous and it suits her very well.
Exactly it looks so cute on her
Exactly, I would totally cut my hair if I had a pretty face. My hair sort of compensates haha
Agree~
“I DEFINITELY WAS!” 😆 so many cultures believe energy etc is stored in the hair, and honestly it makes a lot of sense that you have been making so many shifts in your life that it was time to release that old energy that was no longer serving you.
You’re beautiful Penny. Inside and out. Looking forward to witnessing what’s to come with this new energy. ❤️
Yes yes and yes!!! Im a true believer of cutting mine when its time to let go. I cut my locs after going through a bad breakup .. next time ill just do a apple cider vinegar wash first to see if it Helps lol
I love how you coming out with the psychological defense mechanism. My major is psychology and I love seeing you speak about these issues 💕 you’re beautiful
Every single "hate" comment always has a very complex psychological profile, and I find it fun to try and decode it lol
🙌
@@PennyTovar very well done👏🏽😍
She looked like a mermaid with long hair. Now she looks like a fairy. 💖
She has a lovely face she suits any cut
So trueee
I’ve done dramatic cuts like that before and it really does feel like a fresh start. So much energy goes into growing and maintaining long hair, when you’re ready for the chop it’s like a rebirth. You look great!!!
The long hair was aaaamazing on you, this shorter hair cut makes you look timeless. Classic. You absolutely rock both.
Yes, she looks Fabulous with long hair/short hair, & she probably would look Fabulous Bald too! Great video!
Women and girls who say they'd kill for long curly hair clearly have never had long curly hair. It does look beautiful but it's time consuming. When I started CGM I became so out of shape bc working out meant I'd have to wash my hair more often and wash days were so time consuming. I cut my hair shoulder length and stopped really caring if my curls were stretched out after putting my hair in a bun to go for a run. Sometimes I look back at pictures of me with my long hair and yeah, it was really pretty. But there's more to life than maintaining the prettiest version of yourself.
agree 100%
You don’t even have curly hair
@@louisano3778 Perhaps maybe she styled it straight in this picture. People have been known to do that.
@@TracyD2 it looks like she barely has waves to me and calls it curls but possible
As you get older (and your back and neck remind you of this constantly,) the curly girl wash and style regimen can be physically overwhelming.
I gave up on diffusing very early on and even scrunching out the crunch is now a major “fill in the blank” for me to do!
I only hope the rest of the world thinks it’s worth all the effort I put into this “natural hair” of mine. I’m certainly beginning to ponder if it is....
When I had short hair, the most common response from other women was "I love your hair! I wish I was brave enough to do that". I never lacked male attention. Now I'm growing it out because *I* want to.
“I would kill to have long hair” Ok but their hair’s length still isn’t going to affect your hair’s length so why are you so mad about it?
OMG THANK YOU. If they actually wanted it, they should’ve CRAWLED to the garbage. (Where they should be)
@@jadagibbs9519 she donated it
"Dead protein that grows out of holes out of my head" is EXACTLY what I'm gonna say instead of 'hair' from now on.
I love that you took all the negativity, analysed it and used them to teach others about feminism! I love your haircut and even more your confidence!
"There are so many people who could have been born female and appreciated long hair".....do they know men can grow their hair out...and historically have? Since the dawn of time?💀 pathetic.
well said!
Imagine all of those people reading this comment😭😭😭
I'm flabbergasted
I can’t believe people freaked out over this ! Your cut looks great and u are still beautiful with or without long hair.
Ladies and gentlemen we have the perfect example of how social media has ruined society!
Arguing over a grown a$s woman who cuts her own damn hair.
@Joyce Duncan people have always shared unnecessary opinions with me in person, social media just makes it easier to be anonymous
i love how this video is so educational on how messed up our society is but many people will still not understand a single thing that was said & still hate on others
Exactly!
"In their smooth brain" smoothest, most educated comeback EVER love it
It’s clear that some of these folks wanted to vicariously live through Penny and her long, curly hair. So when Penny did want SHE wanted to HER OWN BODY, they felt like spoiled their fantasies. Thankfully Penny is fully aware of projecting and jealousy, and SHE loves her short hair. ❤️
Yo I wish “Influencers” could be like Penny she spreads positivity and you learn something from her videos. The people who we call “Influencers” now in day spread negativity and is shaping our society to trash. I just got to say thank you penny also Salem I enjoy her videos and honestly there one of the few you tubers who are making a difference 💙
👏🏼👏🏼 that ending though 🙌🏼
yes!!!!
I started snapping. That was poetry right there.
AMEN to that!
BOOM!
My A&P teacher said “it baffles how we as a species determine the standard of beauty based off of dead things. The only living thing we look at when we see a person is their eyeballs. Hair, dead. Skin, dead. Nails, dead”. It stuck with me forever.
🤯 mind blown at this realization
Skin dead... wha
Pretty sure your skin isn't dead, fam.
@@MsTriara I think it’s more like our skin is always replacing itself kinda thing.
I really love how you turned this into an analysis on how society views women's hair. Everything you said is spot on and we should all be free to make choices about our own bodies rather than have pressure from society to fit into a certain standard. And this is coming from someone who genuinely loves long hair xD
YAS PENNY YEEEESSSSS 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
😘❤️
I literally lost all my hair to alopecia and I'm living for the haircut. IT'S. YOUR. BODY. And you look amazing.
try rosemary oil
@@onemorelight593 alopecia isn't something you can fix with rosemary oil.
@@onemorelight593 wtf do some research first
Calm down yall it's not that deep. It's nothing I haven't heard before and it doesn't offend me lol. I have tried just about everything including injections. I also have lupus which gets in the way. Haven't had hair for over 5 years so I'm used to it. The doctors believe once my lupus is under control, it would be easier to treat the alopecia.
I showed my boyfriend and told him I wanted the same hair, it's stunning and suits you perfectly. It's funny that people think you actually give a dang what they think of your hair lmao this video is da bomb
"It's NOT my job to be pleasing to everybody's eyeballs" 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
LOVE that!
1:11 i cried too...out of happiness! i felt weirdly sentimental as someone who has watched your videos for so long and has seen you grow and transform into the beautiful person you are today. watching you cut your hair felt like a new chapter in the journey we followers share with you. we are LOVING the new look and this video was so well-articulated. more power to you!
yes i had this exact same thing happen to me!
you and salem are killing it calling out messed up beauty standards 💜 glad you're happy with the change, you look so happy. I cut my hair drastically recently and it feels so much better, so I feel you.
"It's not my job to be pretty or appealing to other people's eye balls" 🙌🏽🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I'm 52 years old and I wish I had had your perspective regarding beauty standards at that age. Thank you! I'm sending this link to my niece who is a beauty and I want her to think like you!
“Dead protein that grows out of holes on my head “ lol your so legit !!
I can't believe people still have nasty things to say when women cut their hair. It's just hair! I've shaved my head three times in my lifetime so far and It's such an experience.
Me too, once. Loved it!!
Right. People got so offended when I did it. Like it was a personal attack. 🥴
Did it twice. Those who loved me accepted it. Those fake MF disappeared. I’m not about to internalize they issues.
@@desertrat5543 I know right! I can’t understand why strangers get upset over another stranger cutting their hair 🤦♀️ my mom has the exact same mentality. She gave us soooo many insecurities by always making comments on our appearance.
Right it’s so annoying. Move tf on it’s not your hair. It literally grows back anyway💀💀
It looks so so good! So French chic and polished, I adore your new cut!
Ikr this is my favorite haircut 😭😭
Girl this is a whole case study and college thesis! You look great both ways, but you’re correct, it’s about how you FEEL. Great job 👏🏼
Not to mention Martin’s reaction if they are so concerned about the “male gaze”. Cheers to a man who respects his wife and finds her hotter than everyone else despite the length of her hair 🥂🍻🤗
Give me a break people. If you’re jealous just say so. 🙄
as someone with similar long curly hair, i would KILL to look that good in short hair. you look so chic and high fashion.
I agree!! She looks so chic with this haircut.
I love the cut. People are weird about other people's hair. I am sad for the person who buys extensions just to attract a man.
Huh? Your statement is a contradiction in and of itself lol.
@@Squeegees123 well it is sad that she’s using extensions for external (specifically for male) satisfaction 🤷🏻♀️ and her reaction to penny’s cut was weirdzzz
@@Squeegees123 tf?
I had super long curly hair about 2 years ago . I actually DID have a mental/emotional breakdown and cut it off. Since then I’ve kept it short while never really liking it. I found your channel tonight while looking for short curly styles. I’m now actually looking at getting a shorter cut with some shorter pieces in front. You look GREAT with the short hair. I also LOVED the long curls as well. But more impressively I really LOVED your attitude about the whole thing and how much you embrace your new look. Plus it was so sweet seeing your partners reaction. I’m reframing my short hair . Thank you so much for sharing your light 💎❤️
I heard this somewhere women who cut their hair and don’t regret it are the women who knows what they want in life. You go girl!
Facts!! 🙌🏽💚
I'm just saying, folks had the same thought process when they were cutting their hair mad short in the 1920s and 1930s. But at the end of the day, Penny's curls are giving bounce, its giving shine, its giving no split ends, its giving hydrated
seeing you has given me the confidence to FINALLY cut my long curly hair. I've always wanted shorter hair and I have always been talked out of it. BUT IM DOING IT!!💕💖💖
I cried watching this because it really hurts when even people who otherwise are very open and supportive fall for the lies of society and don't want to admit it. And because you put it so perfectly and it healed a little bit of my broken self love
I can’t believe people feel entitled to judge what you do with your hair. You looked beautiful with you long hair and you look beautiful now. 🤗happy for you!
I stand by my original comment I had made when I first saw it: You're ROCKING that hair! It suits you beautifully! You look fun, and free, and like a weight has been lifted off of you - because literal weight has been lifted off of you! People look their most beautiful when they're happy - and getting that hair cut off has made you SHINE! 🙌🙌💜🙌🙌
YES 🙌🏽 she looks happy and free. My thoughts exactly
This is a sensitive subject to many women. I, myself, like me better with long hair but I hope one day I will feel good in any shape and form. You look amazing and it's important you like it
Everyone should do what makes them feel confident! It's just extremely weird for people to become hostile with others over another persons choice!
“It is not my job to be pleasing to other people’s eyeballs” I love it!!!! And protein
Growing out of holes on your head haha that’s great!!! Penny you are awesome!!!!
We love taking rude comments and making it educational. Yaas, queen!
I feel like I’m looking at the real you with this cut - and that’s not to say that short or long is better or worse but that you’ve made a change to reflect your inner being and it shows! I love, love, love it
This comment is EXACTLY what this whole thing is about! We see a inner PERSON whereas when standard beauty protocol grabs the attention first, the PERSON is lost. And in the world of some men, they never want to find the inner PERSON anyway.
All the negative comments you have been getting after you took the decision to cut your OWN hair, just goes to show that people will rather ruin someone's happiness taking a decision they never could as a result of deep self-esteem issues than heal and foucus on them selfs.
People keep staying mad. Slay queen! Never dim your lights to let someone else feel comfortable. Shine as bright as you can!!
She looks so much happier and confident. Props to her for being such a queen
She looks more mature, and still gorgeous.
Imagine caring so much about the hair of someone who doesn’t know you and you will never meet in real life 😂
I just cut my long curly hair. Everyone was “I can’t believe you did that “ I love it my hair now. The way it feels in the shower. Fixing it in ways I never could have before. Who cares what others say and what MEN want!!!!
Exactly 👑
I absolutely adore this cut on you, I remember getting a lot of backlash when I cut 8 inches off my hair but I’m obsessed with my short hair now
Love the short hair on you, it looks so fun and I feel like it suits your personality. Good for you for staying true to yourself and your individual style :)
People be wylin over long hair I really don’t get it, Hair is just hair. “People could’ve been born female and enjoyed it” LMAOO WHAT??
I literally almost fell out of my chair when I read that comment too xD I actually feel really bad for them, I hope they are able to find their own happiness someday.
They’re acting like only women grow hair or summ
@@eypu999 there’s definitely guys in my life with longer hair than me lol
guys always do this thing where they think they’re incapable of doing what women do. They can wear make up, they can have long hair, they can wear tight clothes… the only ppl stopping them are their own damn selves.
@@natalyrausch I feel that it's more complicated than that. Sure, you can say that men are largely preventing themselves from doing whatever but it's the social constructs that really prevents people from doing certain things. Bottom line is that the patriarchy hurts both men and women, because of the rigid roles we are pressured to stick to. Sometimes these roles are so rigid that it could pose a threat to your safety if you defy them.
When a women cuts her hair, that is power, confidence, true beauty. I never felt more feminine than when my hair was short. You are beautiful!
I always laugh when I hear the comment that “men prefer long hair.” First of all obviously, who cares? But second of all my husband actually prefers short hair (if I ever get a pixie I think he’ll start happy dancing). Is that stopping me from growing it out again? No because it’s my body and we both know that (and he thinks I’m beautiful anyway), but men aren’t a monolith!! They have different preferences!
My husband just wants me to be okay with what my hair looks like and not be in crisis. He has preferences, but ultimately, it’s my hair. I didn’t ask him when I dyed it green. I didn’t ask him when I went blonde. I didn’t ask him when I took six inches of dead hair off and got my waves and curls back. It isn’t his hair, and if he’s that invested, he can buy a wig I may or may not wear.
@@katefarr2036 yeah exactly! My husband supports me no matter what I do with my hair. Like, when prompted he’ll say he loves short hair but if I respond with “cool but I’m growing my hair out” he goes “great! It’ll look gorgeous on you!” Etc etc
Long hair looks pretty but it isnt worth it. At the end anyone who loves you will love you and like you however no matter how you look
@@bbygrlpt2 Yep. Every couple of years I let my hair grow long and it's such a pain to detangle, dry, and style. Plus it sheds everywhere and makes a mess. Whenever I get fed up and cut it to shoulder length I always get the same comments saying, "omg noooo your hair was so pretty; what man is going to like you now??" but, ironically, I get more attention from men when my hair is shorter because it suits me more lol. People are so rude and nosy for no reason.
Yep my hubby is not a fan of my long hair but he keeps his trap shut coz we both are adults.
your long hair was magnificent but I think you have so much more character and charm with your short haircut ❤
I shaved my hair off 5 years ago. It was liberating. I'm actually contemplating doing it again. Everyone told me for years that I look like a boy, I looked better with longer hair. I felt insecure but I pushed through it and it gave me a taste of my own choices and how much freedom I have to do anything i want.
I’m looking at your picture and it really suits you. I think gold round glasses would look lovely on you, am so envious of that combination.
That's funny because I think 95% of my friends want me to cut my hair short but I like it long.
I cut my hair back in highschool and got those same comments as a young teen. But guess what? 8 years later im still rocking a a pixie cut and i'd never go back :) You look amazing!!
It's really refreshing to see a young woman on youtube with such clarity and self-confidence. Wonderful role model. If you care, I love your curls, long or short, but mostly I love how you model self-respect.
lOVE IT!!! You radiate confidence and that "je ne sais quoi". Beautiful
You didn’t even owe people this much. Thanks for always being TRUE to your YOURSELF. Your in inspiring person!
So true what you said about the internalized expectation that women have to have long hair to be feminine! It should not matter what kind of haircut a person is having! I think you should wear your hair the way you feel most comfortable having it!!
Edit: I am aware that my opinion should not matter here, however, I still wanted to say that I think that you look absolutely beautiful with your current haircut!
U realize its based on biology though right? I have a daughter and son, my son had very little hair and didnt need a haircut for almost 2 years. My daughter had a head full of hair and now at 1 yo, her hair is down to her waist. Think about how many bald men are out there vs women. Biologically, women grow more and longer hair on their heads than men so that translates to beauty standards, or "internalized expectations" as you call it.
I also agree people should wear their hair how they want, but noone is required to think its beautiful, especially when you go against standards
@@natc1008 I have a male friend who has hair down to his hips. I also know many women who can't seem to grow their hair past their shoulders. It is not purely based on biology.
@@natc1008 thank you for your comment! While I am not very sure about women generally growing more/longer hair than men (I believe this is rather influenced by genetics), the point I was trying to make is that people should not have to adopt what their respective gender roles prescribe them to look like (long hair/ short hair; skirt/ pants etc.) just to please or fit the standard! I hope we can grow to a more accepting, liberating and self- fulfilling lifestyle that does not dictate or restrict one’s choices :)
@@natc1008 Yes I absolutely agree! I also believe that beauty is diverse and cannot or should not be pinned down to one standard! But just as you said the most important thing is that we are satisfied and like the way we ourselves look regardless of what everyone else says!
Curly content is what brought me here, wisdom and humor made me stay!!!
Same!
Yeees girl, spot on with EVERYTHING!! You look frikkin amazing in your short curly hair, im just starting my shorr curly hair journey and you're so inspiring!
I actually prefer my hair short, but I like to grow it out for 3 years and then chop it all off as short as you. People think I'm crazy, and I just enjoy being able to do cool styles with long hair but after awhile it's too much maintenance so I cut it off when it gets too long
I identify strongly with this comment☺️
I have two daughters, I hope they grow up to be like you, Penny, while still being true to who they are! I love love love the haircut!
I love it Penny. I started watching you back when it was still “curly Penny”, but I come back for you. Your personal expression of inclusion and mental health self care is so inspiring. As a clinical social worker you have my mental-health-professional-stamp-of-“I’d-share-that-video-with-others”. I would have said stamp of approval, but you and I know you don’t need anyone else’s approval. You have value and worth just being you. That simple. Thank you for such meaningful content.
So well put, Grace. Thank you for putting your professional perspective to good use here!!
I needed this. I love everything about this video and can relate to all of it. Yesterday I went from long, curly hair that would get caught in my bum cheeks in the shower to hair so short it’s shaved at the neck. The change is affecting me physically and emotionally that I could write a book to explain. I don’t love the cut, but I don’t regret going short. I do, however, completely love your look. Cheers to no more neck pain! I’ll be following you now to find out how to manage short hair. Thank you.
The fun thing about short hair is that, if you don't love the cut, it doesn't take long before you can go get a different cut. There's lots of variety in short hair, and you can find the cut you love. Best wishes in finding the best look you love.
Your long hair was beautiful, your new cut is stunning. When will people just realise that it's your hair, your choice (it looks great btw!) xx
I am over here cheering and clapping and screaming "Yaaaaaas, you tell them!" I am so glad that I clicked on this video! I feel this is a video that many people need to see, if not everyone. I feel like everything you said was just common sense, but then again, some lack that and need a reminder! Thank you for sharing this and even though, you didn't need to explain yourself, as this was your decision, I am so glad you did!
I’m Afro-Latina and watching your videos has made me love myself and my features. I see myself in you and continue to inspire me everyday . Hair length DONT mean nothing . You’re already pulling of short hair as it is ( not everyone can do that) . So keep SLAYING penny 💇🏽♀️💅🏾
short hair is such a flex on beautiful bone structure, and girl, yours is just perfect for it. rock it!
Your hair doesn’t define you, you define you!!! And your hair looks absolutely gorgeous short! The curls still be absolutely POPPIN Penny!
its always “but men like ….” in a way for us to make the decision we dont want AS IF THEY HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH OURSELVES AND OUR BODIES
Penny you are such an amazing role-model for your audience. This is exactly what an influencer should look like. You deserve every success that comes your way and I wish you nothing but happiness. Your hair and your personality are perfect!
needed this video rn !! ( just went back to short hair after a year and its still the same sob reactions everytime)
Penny I adore your haircut and I think you look stunning. I personally like my hair long as I find it easier to take care of and I prefer how my curls look. I also love long curly hair in men, it's one of the most attractive things to me. But hair is just hair, people should realize it's not that deep and different people like different things. Let's just all let people have the hair they want to have.
You know, to pull off long hair and maintaining it is already amazing but then pulling off short hair and lookin SNATCHED, that's on some godly level I cannot comprehend.
100%
Having long hair is heavy besides all the maintenance I'm constantly growing my hair out and donating it since I myself had cancer at 15, it feels like giving back. Ever single time I always feel lighter literally. Your hair looks great Penny and you did an amazing thing for others.
It is wonderful that you took the time and effort to donate your hair! I'm sure the recipients appreciate it! I also donated hair for about 3 times. Yes, long hair is very high maintenance. I also love long hair. But I had the time then. Once I became a little more older and busier, I appreciate short hair more. I might be taking a break from growing long hair for now. The short hair is bouncy and airy and a fresh new look for me. Plus, you can also use hair extensions if you want a day of long hair.
I love, love, LOvE how your hair turned out!!! I personally like having short hair myself too. It's comfortable, convenient and just feels so breezy. My husband actually prefers when I cut my hair into a cute layered bob. So no, not all men prefer long hair on women.
Girl, ur hair was gorgeous when it was long, but its also gorgeous cut short, and u rock the hell out of it!!!!!! U look beautiful, and u
also look so confident too, I'm loving it. ✌️
