Its been years since I last got a haircut and it was only because my aunt did it behind my moms back. I was 7 back then and Im 16 now. My hair was VERY long (it used to be just below my ass) and my parents would not let me cut it even though the ends are almost completely dead.
They have this belief that a womans hair is our crown or something and should NEVER be cut. Which is unfair cause the men in their religion could. My mom told be once that cutting/shaving a womans hair is only acceptable if they have cancer or something else deadly.
Ive always thought that rule was absurd even as a kid but never really had the guts to actually do something about it. Up until yesterday.
I took a scissor and played a tutorial on how to cut my own hair from youtube and I began cutting.
I was sooooo scared that theyd catch me or something since my room doesnt have a door and my dad was sleeping on the other room beside mine. And my mom actually almost did! I put my hair on a clamp and ran downstairs with my scissors, my comb and my phone and finished cutting my hair on our restroom (wouldve been smarter if I started cutting my hair there in the first place).
It took a while but I did it! I finally did it!
I accidentally cut it a little bit shorter than planned but I love it! My hair hasnt felt this healthy in years! VERY happy I did it and I do not regret it one bit. I have been having trouble hiding it though. Ive been wearing my hoodie a lot to hide it but its kind of really really hot in here so I just put it in a clamp during day. So far, they havent noticed yet and hopefully they never do. Wish me luck!
