[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here with an update: I convinced her to not shave, but she convinced me to still go very short. Because there are no hair salons open and she HAD to have it done that day (she was adamant), I cut it myself.

It’ll take me a while to get over it, because her hair was beautiful. However, everyday it gets easier because, guess what? She couldn’t be happier. She loves that her hair isn’t making her neck hot and that she doesn’t have to sit through long maintenance sessions and last night she said “mom don’t make a big deal about this, but I think now with my hair shorter my face is more visible and I look a lot nicer”.

She has always been so hard on herself despite always being gorgeous. She never cared about her looks, always said she was ugly, and I thought wanting to shave her hair hair had a little of that built in. So I was very surprised to see self confidence come through with the hair chop. And even though, as I said, I’m still dealing with my own feelings about the hair (or lack thereof), I have to agree, the short hair does bring out her facial features and makes them stand out even more.[/quote]

Well done! Glad she was able to both receive your guidance and make her own decision. Beautiful. [/quote]
