Is Anyone Else Feeling Really Scissor Happy At The Moment

I bought a pair of shears last week and have been thinking about it. They're still in the package though
 
I am. I have to fight it badly. Especially since there is nothing wrong with my ends right now. I had to give a friend of mine my hair shears and made her promise not to return them until August :(

Since the beginning of this year I've cut about 3-5 inches. Just cuz :nono:
 
Lol...i used to be addicted to the scissors...i had to learn to let go and now I'm addicted to hiding my hair...i say fight the urge lol.
 
Earlier this year I felt like trimming but I didn't because my ends are not split/breaking. since then the feeling passed
 
No, but I hope my friend is. I think she would look great with Olivia's haircut from the Biggest Loser from makeover day, which aired last Tuesday.

It didn't look so good at first but when she got on that scale, I loved it.
 
OMG...that felt so goood :look:. My ends feel so nice, thick and blunt again. But I'm not trimming again for the rest of the year :lol: :crazy:. I still want to make it to WL. However, for those that want to strengthen their hair, according to the lunar calendar, today is the day to do it :grin:

I'm sorry, but I couldn't fight the urge. I think I might be above BSL or just BSL again :blush:, but it looks sooo full :lick:. And it has more weight to it. But I promise I'm not trimming my hair until September...at least (yeah right):look:
 
Me!! I haven't had a trim in a while and have been tempted to cut of 1 or 2 inches since I always have SSK's and mid shaft splits. (They seem to never go away).
though they never caused problems with my growth, I want them gone.

OT: OMG your siggy :lachen::lachen:
 
That first hairstyle in the thread that Sparkingflame started when she got the itch is so fly it made me want it - plus the YT vids where they make their twa look like it was fingered coil in like 10 minutes with only a boar bristle. Man! I wish I could make my hair look fly that easily.

On the other hand I am freaking out because I think I should give myself a decent trim like more than an inch. Dang, honestly, it makes me feel like I need to pause and have a moment of silence...I've been waiting a long time to have this hair. *kick'in rocks*
 
Girl yes. I have been S/D-ing the hell out of my hair for two days in order to get rid of these pesky SSK's. But I'm to going put them away for a while before I get out of hand.:spinning:
 
I've been scissor happy lately. I always get this way prior to hitting BSL...it just seems that my hair is in the way all the time. I had an appt with my stylist for a trim 5/3 , but she went out of town for a few weeks so I guess I was saved for the moment.

Me.

I am now back to .4" (if so much) after cutting my hair from BSL yesterday. I did the exact same thing 4 yrs ago but in the end, it did grow back thick and healthy until I got a relaxer and the stylist relaxed me bone straight (the worst!). I absolutely hate stringy ends!! It seems I might never be satisfied with my hair after all the hard work of growing it out. I do not like my hair natural, and for the most part, I do not like it relaxed. It seems I am looking for the "the perfect" hair which doesn't exist, ***sigh***.

Second, I think I was motivated to cut because I was depressed about my sides thinning (traction alopecia (I think) ) after wearing clip ons for a yr, and then weave and braids in for the past 2 months. Right now, I am so tired of this hair journey and the effort it takes to nurture and grow my hair, only to cut it off again. My temptation to cut is always related to the fact that I hate stringy, thin ends, and once my hair is damaged, instead of having the patience to nurture my hair back to health, I start to clip and clip which then leads to cut and cut.

For the most part, I LOVE my hair relaxed but I have come to the conclusion that I can never get a relaxer again because the hair follicles in my sides could be almost dead. If I want hair to grow in the bald spots, I cannot risk getting a relaxer ever a gain. I might not be able to apply heat to my sides either so I don't even know what lies ahead in this hair journey for me. At least now that it is short I can deal with the bald spots - massaging and washing daily. I have NO IDEA how I am going to wear my hair as I cannot wear any kind of extension or braids and twa is not flattering on me all. It is frustrating but I won't let hair issues get the best of me. I am going with the flow - at least now, I am not motivated to go beyond BSL, lol. I feel FREE to just let my hair be...... with no expectations.

That's how it started with me. I decided to do a S&D after a ponytail rollerset since I could see me ends really well. And then...I decided to pass on the flatiron and put it into 9 ponytails to trim the hemline all around and through my hair. And THEN I put it into 2 pigtails to trim it some more. I seriously think I cut 2-3 inches of hair...at least. But I'm still only 3 or so inches from WL so I think I should still make close to the end of the year...if I only a teensy tiny dusting. I'm just gonna hide my hair under a wig :yep:
 
I had a really stressful job, got really sick, took medications and all my hair broke off. It was so tragic but I hate straggly ends!

I got scissor happy today and hacked it in half. I am currently shorter than APL :shocked: I have a new regimen which includes washing once a week and using Aubrey GPB and Alter Ego Garlic Conditioners. I will not wear my hair down for a while.

I am sad about having short hair but it'll grow back. It always does. I think I want braids too.
 
I'm feeling it too...in March, I cut off pretty much all my progress from 2010, but it felt so good. Now I'm feeling the urge to trim a little more...just take a little bit off the ends to freshen them up. But that's what I said I was gonna do the last time, and look what happened.

This is why I avoid scissors happy stylists but can't find it in my heart to hate them...sometimes, you really just can't help yourself. You know it's wrong, but it feels so right. :look:
 
I did and I cut off an inch yesterday. It jeered to be done. My hair was doing so well and then it started breaking and splitting. So I decided it was time to give it a fresh start. Now my ends feel fabulous & I'm not holding onto damaged hair.
 
Yes i've been thinking about cutting my hair like this

Im still thinking about it 2 weeks later..:lol:
 
Yes very! :sad: I always wanted to give my myself a good trim before MBL or WL to set me on the right path, not sure yet, I have a month left in my stretch. This new growth is a beast so I think I'll get some good growth to be able to have a good trim and see some progress. :yep:
 
I just sat in front of the mirror and cut about a inch of hair off. My ends were so thin and split. The split is further up the hair shaft than what I cut but im only SL and couldnt imagine cutting off any more hair. I really need to invest in the split ender. I do not trust stylist at all.

That is a really cute cut. I got out my camera and looked at some old flix of a nice seriously layered hair cut I had and I was like that is sharp.


I definitely felt that cut bug and YES it felt so good, I was so happy to do it.

It is definitely in the air and the ladies are doing the damn thing because all the cuts are looking FIERCE :burning:
