    I've watched alot of big chop videos and this is by far the best one I've seen.. you made it a spiritual growth documentary..you have inspired me to do something for me that's me and only me....thank you for your testimony and you are beautiful inside and out and it's strange how God( or whatever your higher power u chose to praise)uses us to help others.... without struggle there is no progress...just remember this...had you never cut it you would've never learned any of these things about yourself. More Hair!!!!

I did what “I” with a big I wanted to do 😍I love myself even that much more for not allowing people opinions of me detour me

    Definitely getting it cut in a female led space would have provided more comfort for this emotional journey. Men see hair as a beautiful cover when it so much more than that. You're obviously in transition into a different version of yourself, despite the negative start, ride it out to the end

  • @j.a.whittler6983
    @j.a.whittler6983 4 года назад +37

    Listen...at the end of the day...it's just hair. Young lady you are absolutely beautiful inside and out. Period!!
    Unfortunately, our culture has a tendency to base beauty on the color of our skin, the length of our hair, etc . To me the definition of beauty is everything that is alive and well AND who doesn't give a crap about what others think is beautiful.
    God blessed you to wake up this morning. Not everyone can say that. Your health, I'm assuming is good. You have a roof over your head and food in your stomach. Soooo....many wish that they could say the same. Count your blessings not your sorrows.
    It's just hair. Lol. You are rocking the heck out of that short , curly haircut. It makes your face stand out in a crowd but in a fantastic way. How many times have you seen a woman with long hair and she never really left an impression on you but a woman with a short avant-garde hairstyle that catches your attention? I find it to be quite often in my personal experiences.
    You just wait after a few months of rocking this style, you'll wonder why you hadn't done it sooner.
    I'm a former professional hairstylist and my favorite clients were women you wanted their hair cut short. In my past experiences I could create all different types of styles with short hair. There's professional haircolor, adding wefts of different textures/colors , silk pressing or nowadays just sporting the "natural" look.
    YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!! Have very blessed day!

    And tbh with you....you seemed not a 100% convinced to cut so that also tinted your barbershop experience. Guys are like that. But Steve legit had a good heart and gave you a niceeee cut.
    Its going to grow back. And with it, more wisdom, inner beauty and grace!

    Omg I had a similar experience last December but I actually went to a salon first but the person did a horrible job so I actually ended up going to a barber after to fix it. I kind of regret it sometimes because I did it for all the wrong reasons. I cut my hair during a time I lost my identity and confidence. But now that I know who I am in Christ I’m glad to watch my hair grow as my spiritual grows! 🙌🏿🙏🏿 good luck on you journey!

    I just big chopped my hair last week and this video is sooo relatable! I was holding onto dead, broken off hair, and now having is so short has inspired me into looking at hair care videos, supplements, ayurvedic routines, etc. It’s definitely been a struggle trying to find my ‘femininity’ with my short cut but i’m ready for the healthy hair journey!

    @jbreezii 4 года назад +19

    Omg I’m sorry he made you feel that way. That’s a horrible experience. For some reason men have this stigma with long hair and if you cut it it’s less attractive to them I’m not sure why but as woman we need to do what makes us happy In the end and think of less what men think. On his part that’s horrible customer service to talk someone down about cutting there hair. It’s business over feelings he should’ve kept his comments to himself.

    I know people don’t mean harm by complimenting your hair and not wanting you to cut it but it’s frustrating when people give unsolicited advice, call your reasons “dumb” and lack the understanding/compassion about it. It looks beautiful at the end. Looks beautiful at the start. Your hair is beautiful no matter the length.

    My big chop last week was due to severe damage. And to start a refresh in my soul! But either way, WE ARE ROYAL GODDESSES FROM THE MOST HIGH. WE ARE BEAUTIFUL! Namaste

Its real personal n you didn't have to but you've let us in. And it's very relatable. I've cut my hair serval times over. But each time there's those insecurities that come at some point of not feeling feminine. But it's growth and mindset changes that give us confidence in who we are as we are. We're all growing. You are beautiful. N that style in the end there in dad's house looks great on you that you did the talk with on the black top.

Everyone would always compliment my hair they didn’t know the damage I had going on cuz I would hide it ,everything that looks good isn’t good it’s gonna take me some time to get use to having short hair as well but I don’t regret my decision you look beautiful I love your cut😍😍😍
