As much as I am fully non-binary and definitely want to look masc, I have always had a really really hard time with cutting my hair. I'm always terrified of looking ugly.
I cut my hair recently, pretty short. It barely even touches my shoulders. And I have a short neck, it's not like a bob it's like.. short short. Not quite like fully male haircut short but definitely pretty close.
When I look in the mirror, I can't tell if I love my hair, or hate it. I also can't tell if I hate my hair or hate my face. I also can't tell if I prioritize looking attractive or looking less like a girl.
My mom said she doesn't like boy haircuts on girls and now I'm very confused. I'm not really like... Out to my family. I can't tell if I just hate the way I look because I've been labeled with "girl with a boy haircut".
I'm not sure what the point of this is. I hope I figure out whether I like my hair, like myself, or hate both. I'm conflicted on how I feel.

As a fellow gender genderqueer who has had short and ling hair, I say-
1. Experiment. Hair grows back, wigs and extensions exist, there's so many ways to play with hair.
2. There are so many ways to have feminine short hair and masculine long hair. Personally, I've grown it to my shoulders,but I have it shaved underneath on the sides, like a hidden mullet? Definitely more affirming for me
3. Look into alternative hairstyles. Its a but harder if you're trying to blend in, but alts care less about gender norms, so they have a lot more cool ideas for haircuts :P
