I personally am not a fan of the hair. I just don't get it. I would not recommend it to any of my clients as a style choice, regardless, here it exists before our very eyes. But this is not what actually appalls me. It is that it had to become a major discussion where all four wives got to weigh in on the big cliffhanger of whether Cody cuts his hair off or not. And how they prefer him with long hair because apparently a buzz cut he once had was awful and unattractive. Wow. Tough crowd!
Now I know this is not a conventional situation but as a stylist I see this in my chair all the time. It just all of a sudden made me think......why does it matter soooooo much to everyone else?? The amount of times I had to adjust a clients cut or color because her sister/mother/husband/friend didn't like it! I believe that hair cut and color, make up, clothing etc are are form of personal expression. Your hair is a part of fashion, your own personal style. I believe your hair can allow you to put your best foot forward, makes you walk a little taller when you feel your looking good.
Don't get me wrong, I know that my husband likes my hair long, preferably curled to be specific. And I have had it long several times, like right now. But I cannot remember a single time when I have decided to change my hair if my husband would like it, or approve, or be upset. I get an urge, and I need a change, and sometimes it's drastic, and he has always made a point of telling me how attractive I am no matter what. And I have to say it feels pretty great to just be who I feel like in that moment. To not have to make something that is fun and expressive be stressful.
And who are all these fashionistas with all this vision?? How come they aren't behind the chair??It is nice to get a little input from friends and family as they know you well and want the best for you. But you also want the best for you, so.....
If you want to cut your hair short, or be platinum or red.....go for it! Be daring! Of course make sure you have a thorough consultation with your stylist so they can guide you toward a transformation that will suit you.
In closing I say to Cody on Sister Wives that if your thinning hair is a concern and you feel like you are ready to cut that mop down.....go for it. If your not, hang on to it.
The people around you should love your soul, your heart and your mind. Your appearance should reflect those things. And if someone is not a fan of your new look they should just respect the fact that you feel amazing.
