I've had long long hair all my life. I'm 20 fucking years old and I don't live at home anymore, I wanted a change. So i cut my hair short. I basically have a mullet thats shorter in the back with v bangs. I had emo hair before but the back was always really long, at least to my mid-back. 

Ive cut my own hair since I was 16 because the hairdresser never knows what I mean when i show a picture or explain it to them, so I took it into my own hands. I've never been made fun of for my hair except by my mom. All my friends envy my hair because "it looks like the OG goth hair." I love layers, teasing, death hawks, all that cool stuff. I just do it myself.

My mom always didn't like it when I cut my hair. She'd always tell me to stop and that it looked fine.

My dad always tells her to keep her hair long and shit and I dont need her projecting that onto me.

I got tired of my hair being in my way all the time.

I know my mom thinks I look bad with short hair. So I never did it and I did now.

I look fine. I look good actually. Which i never say.

WHY DID I EVEN SHOW MY MOM.

Well I decided to tell my mom, which was a bad idea anyways. And she just says. "Honey stop cutting your hair."

I'm honestly contemplating shaving my head.

It looks good, to me. I'm just not used to it yet. I feel more free and it feels strange. Idk why our moms have to fucking judge us for almost nothing. In a couple months it'll be back where it was before. I don't care if I look "gay" if i look like a "boy" if I don't have long precious locks of hair. What's wrong with either of those anyway?!
